Gaming habits

Postby JOJ650s » Tue Mar 27, 2012 10:32 am

Ever since I saw the Gamer Pet-Peeves topic,
I thought it would be a good idea to make one for your own gaming habits. :)

-All ways have to pull the bow in Minecraft all the way back before firing.
-All ways pick up a sniper, saber, or rocket launcher when I see it in Halo.
-Getting all the way where the final boss is, then turn back to collect almost everything in the game before I fight him.
-Rolling or jumping to make traveling faster. (Even when it doesn't)
-Losing DS pens, just to find them later in the weirdest places.

I got more, though I kinda forgot some of them at the moment.
Be part of the answer, not part of the problem.

-Teabagging 12 year-olds
-Cheating whenever possible
-Murdering characters I'm supposed to protect
-Saving a game before a choice, and then seeing all the choices
-Playing on the easiest difficulty (and still be able to get achievements)
-Turning subtitles on
-ALWAYS putting a game back in it's original case.

I yikes you know I am guilty of a few of these...

Saving a game before a choice, and then seeing all the choices
Putting games in wrong covers (temporarily so my kids don't scratch the discs)

- Always reload after battle, even if I shot one bullet.
- Jumping around everywhere when bored/preparing for a match (I do this a lot on TF2)

-When I am in doubt, I shoot at everything as fast as humanly possible. <_<
-Putting games in their original cases.
-I will admit, I do teabag some people on Halo, BUT only if they have been extremely annoying or if it is one of my friends (Inside joke between us lol)

What are ya'll, a bunch of frat boys?


-I tend to to prefer a nut shot to a head shot when sniping.

-I also tend to carry twice the weapons/ammo I actually need, and a large stock of alcohol.

-I never put games in their original cases. Never.

Perverts. >_>

--Saving repeatedly every 5 minutes or when my gut says so (I blame Morrowind and Oblivion for this).
--Looking up the consequences to a decision before it's made (I KNOW...but I only do this rarely and mainly for games which have autosave features after events. I did this extensively with Metro 2033 after being forced to replay multiple levels).
--Being a hero instead of a villain.
--Teamkilling when the team is being stupid. Because you deserve it and the imagined look of shock on your face brings me no small enjoyment, that's why.
--Finding the ultimate weapon and/or the obscure and hard to find yet basically worthless weapon. I'm looking at you with love Rainbow Blade.
Orodrist wrote:-I also tend to carry twice the weapons/ammo I actually need, and a large stock of alcohol


This too. I'm a terrible shot (before the alcohol. >_>) though. And usually it's Medpacks or the equivalent with me, since alcohol doesn't fit in with the hero image...this is not true with Orcs and Elves though. >_>

--I will go for the explosives before the assault rifle (partially for the terrible shot, 87% because I like a big boom).
--Knife/melee kills are my bread and butter. I will go for them before any other weapon (save a rocket lawnchair).

It doesn't matter what game it is... my sister will repeatedly bunny hop everywhere.

EVERYWHERE.

Just get her to play Morrowind for a few hours. High agility rating makes the game so much easier. O_O

ikr?

I seriously don't though. Too easy to just stick it in the case of the game you're putting in.

She's played Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim.


By the time she was done with Oblivion, her character (who was, as it is worthy to note, a vampire, and thusly received certain bonuses) had an insane agility and athletics level and could easily vault over the tallest NPCs without breaking a sweat o_o

Nice Soup. Nice. XD

Can't rail against her though; I did much the same thing. I remember in Morrowind going vampire and having level 100 agility already. 50 foot running leaps and a 12 foot vertical jump. XD

I could do it in the game too.
