Power-ups in a Duel

ok i played a duel a long time ago against this guy and some one esle was waiting to play and as soon as i pick up the udamge the guy waiting to play tells me that i'm cheating and left. but to me if you run around grabbing shield belt and armor and health viels your cheating too, because you just altered your health to survive one my rocket so whats wrong with me grabing u damage to even the score.

darkwalker isn't highly recommended either.

Double damge is like the same as a dark walker.

Think about it
Belt = 100 shielding
Rocket / Flak = 100+ Dmg
AMP + Flak/Rocks = 200+

One lucky shot would send players into a respawn frenzy. Another reason why DD is HIGHLY unethical because one shot kill weapons that cause instant death is usually discouraged for competitive play.

ok for the millionth time this has been brought up shield belt only 100 armor YOUR f***IN FAULT FOR NTO GETTING IT STOP b****ING second udamage can do over 1000 damage if used correct tri rockets multiple shots of the sniper minigun whoring anything will kill the other person its not cheating cause you cant cheat unless you leave the map that would be glitching but its been a rule for dueling for ages its not going to change for some newb...if ur able to hit someone with multiple rockets sniper shots and mini why the hell r u using the udamage those weapons take off shield belt IMMEDIATELY think about it... person grabs the shield belt they not have 100 health 100 armor you have 100 health 50 armor you hit them once with the sniper they have 100 health 30 armor..guess who has more armor now YOU DO

zellot, i understand some ppl get upset about the shield belt, but just understand the way to go isnt the u damage.

after the tri qm thing, this forum seems more busy

Good thing you mention respect. For over 10 years, UT and Quake duelers can be sort of united because dueling is 1 v 1 game. You learn about your oppenent. About his aim, about his movement, and about his knowledge. Creates a bond and throughout me dueling experience, I have never seen top tier players disrespect one another.

the only problem with that is the fact that top players in ut3 are based on opinion only because most of the community is a fail ...i meant to say fails to see skill when its slappin them in the face since they all play vehicle modes or if they stick to 1 mode  they will fail to see the true top players

As i mentioned before on other threads. The shieldbelt promotes a motive for players to move around the map. And as your example is a true test of skill. Rev is higher skilled and more knowledgeable thus, he is TOTALLY FN STACKED WITH 199 HP and +150 ARMOR.

He got to the weapons and armors before you did. It's your fault you let him do that. You allowed him to acquire the belt, vials, vest, thigh pads, helmet, health bubbles, etc. You have nothing to blame except yourself. Learn from your mistakes. Like I said before, dueling is an honor. You learn about your opponent if you know what you are suppose to look for. Once you found it, you will be able to surpass Crow's skill and other players.

damn remy you make me wanna duel you again dont know why hahah was a good game on heatray

Lol get ur ps3 fixed and we can duel it up. But yea, i dont want to sound a nerd and all, but people need to understand dueling is so much deeper than the typical just run n gun. Once people realize the depths this mode has to offer, you will notice things that you have never noticed before.
