Subject: Power-ups in a Duel
Date Posted: 09 Jun 2009 at 6:57pm
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.
so i just wanted to see what ya'll thought were about the situation and are all power-up fair game in a duel.

Ok, picking up DD in duels is highly unethical. Shield belt is the bread and butter but amp is not.

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.

Some guy ranked top 100 duel 360 version only did heatray darkwalker on host. Best part was that I beat him even though he was in the walker.

zellot, i understand some ppl get upset about the shield belt, but just understand the way to go isnt the u damage.
first off, you instantly throw yourself into the super noob category, and you dont belong there
secondly, its a matter of respect, if he can easily grab the shield belt, dont you think he could get the U-damage aswell? hes upset at you for getting it because hes specificly not picking it up as a mutual thing, any time a player is showing you trust you should give it back unwritten rules are the first rules to follow in my book.
and lastly, the U-damage last 30 seconds, doubles the damage, if you go on a serious run and get some good spawns or know the map well enough you could deliver ALOT more damage then any sheild belt protection offered.
anyhow just dont do it man

1 primary flak is already 180 damage, so you can do 360 in 1 shot, that's quite a lot.

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.

I saw duel on Resistance: Fall of Man. Made me lol.
Everyone was that chimeran race which moves faster and does more damage, and the guy who came in 2nd only got that far because he whored 40mm grenades, instant kill weapons. No map control made him able to camp out that spot and use cheap weapons and get that far, and this tournament was for money too.

| 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

ok so here a question if you're dueling why not just make it a regular duel and not grab the shield belts or armor. cause that's not a duel, a duel should be skill vs skill, not skill vs skill + shield belt.
for example. one time i was going against crow and shot a big bio ooze on him and it didn't kill him cause he had the shield belt and to quote him" oh you would of killed me but i had like 199, you were close though"

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.

Also, you should be asking yourslef, "Damn. How did he get f***ing stacked like that? How can I prevent him to get the belt? How can I distract him so I can get the belt myself? What did he do right? What did I do wrong? How did he kill me? How did I react when I was fighting him? How did he react when I was fighting?"
Those are the questions you should be asking yourself if you truly want to be a top dueler...

ok let me say this i not saying nothing about someone grabing the shield belt first i know if you didn't get it first you fresh out of luck, i don't care about that. i just saying and the reason why i made this thread, is to ask if one thing is ok to grab the other should be to since it's there
secondly, i think if your grabing things to help you survive an attack apperently your scared your skills aren't that good to dodge a rocket or any other projectile. so like i said dueling should be skill vs skill not skill vs skill + shield belt. and i don't think back in the days of george washingtion when they really had duels that one guy showed up in regular clothes and the other showed up in armor

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.

ok lets put it like this ...go play warfare without vehicles and b**** at everyone whos using them..its there...it gives them the advantage its ur fault for not using it... same concept but when something was agreed on to NOT use its best to not use it for respect as been said how much skill does it take for me to kill u with a redeemer ..very little...actually..none... you cant survive it unless u hide im not gunna say udamage is equivalent to redeemer but the udamage can dish out beyond enough damage let me use an example
some guy called me a fag when i was dueling him cause my view was different then his to me it showed his rocket hit the ground when it hit me i died after that (keep in mind this was deck) within about 1 min i got 8 spawn kills on him back to back none stop its thats easy to spawn kill someone... now lets put udamage+ ontop of that spawn killing....rediculous the match would of been over with in 20 seconds its so easy to spawn kill someone if u know the maps good enough so what if i die and u have the udamage doesnt that make you the bad guy for attackin me while i only have 100 health and enforcer?

| oh i know people play it as if its a DM run and gun isnt the way to go in a duel people say its all about killin... its all about strategy... if u aint got it u aint gunna win... i remember playin a duel and the guy had complete map control i map i f***ed up bad he could of dominated me but i played smarter then he did even though he had the map which caused me to win 3-2

Honestly, if you don't get it by now then you can only blame your own incompetence and unwillingness to learn how to play. Think about it, there's a reason the top players play with those rules, it's far and away the most skill demanding and strategic form of duel. There's also a reason why the not so good players always try to modify the rules in hopes of taking on the more skillful players. NEWS FLASH: Modifying the rules will not change the outcome of the match, it only provides a handicap. If you feel outmacthed by someone, work hard and learn how to beat them, don't make excuses and change the format of the game.

zero, no that wouldnt be fun.. i would sit in one spot and shock combo you to pieces the whole time.
really this is pointless even explaining. and further proof epic is assbackwards by the fact they even have a piece of armor considered a powerup.
anyhow envy:
what about people that spawnkill in vehicle modes, i could argue that i was upset you were using a certain vehicle so i spawnkilled in retalition etc., the point is theirs basic unwritten rules that most ppl have the deceny to respect, yet noone can understood rules in duels that have existed long before vehicles were even in fps games?

Strategy on maps? That involves MAP CONTROL. If your aim's not good enough to take off a person's shield and health, then Dueling is definitely not for you, especially if u wanna just keep tryin to "modify" the rules like trendy said earlier. It's like me playin VCTF or WARFARE. Ex. Vehicles should not be used against players that aren't in a vehicle themselves. Not Fair ~_^

lol your whole complaint is about the shield belt you f***ing dimwit, put the crack pipe down.
you f***ing blow ass at ut3, why do you even waste your time playing it, let alone being a f***ing little girl on the forums "wahhh they keep getting these powerups that epic put all over the maps"
whats your f***ing primary mode dumbsh*t? is this your first ut game? you are a f***ing penis puffer and its hilarious you got all upset about me kindly trying to point you in the right direction.
edit: i dont care how you have to try to reason it to your numb ass self, but you arent making some general arguement about how you are keeping your self altered because the other guy is, f***ing picking up a weapon alters your players status. you are crying that f***ing the shieldbelt is unfair so you think grabbing UD is a fair reaction, besides the fact i already explained your a f***ing moron for not realizing that the other person could make sure you never even f***ing saw a udamage spawn but that its not even close to equal.

When i say Strategy on maps i dont mean map control, i was talking about the way you use the map to attack the opponent, depending of the weapon you will use to attack in a difrent palce of the map, you can attack to the opponent with more of one weapon to have different results. I had to explain it better XD

lets put it this way: if we were to play with no shield belt, i would simply time every gun on the map so you would only have the enforcer at all times. Trust me, you wouldn't enjoy it and neither would i.

Strategy on maps? That involves MAP CONTROL. If your aim's not good enough to take off a person's shield and health, then Dueling is definitely not for you, especially if u wanna just keep tryin to "modify" the rules like trendy said earlier. It's like me playin VCTF or WARFARE. Ex. Vehicles should not be used against players that aren't in a vehicle themselves. Not Fair ~_^ |
When i say Strategy on maps i dont mean map control, i was talking about the way you use the map to attack the opponent, depending of the weapon you will use to attack in a difrent palce of the map, you can attack to the opponent with more of one weapon to have different results. I had to explain it better XD
| umm zero...sorry to burst ur bubble but..thats part of map control map control does not mean grabbin the shield belt..its how u use the map to defeat ur opponent example..person who has heigh advantage generally kills person who doesnt at the distance of the height weapons chosen for me would be sniper rifle while for most noobs would be rockets...outcome of battle..i win
edit: look zellot no one was being a dick until u called deadaim names... we r just tryin to showu the rules that have been with deuling for the longest time and no matter what its nto going to change just cause some new kid doesnt like it

None of us are getting angry. We are just pointing you people into the right direction on how dueling is meant to be played. The only reason why people are getting upset is because of your post earlier. I believe you just got pretty damn personal with those attacks to deadaim...

Read that post again. I know what Strategy is, and it INVOLVES control of key items. Preventing ur opponent from gettin those items is a KEY element of dueling. But the argument was about why it's unfair to use shield belt but not DD. Zero, Zellot, or anybody else that feels this way, send me a friend request, and i'll duel u. Here's the thing: I won't grab the shield belt at all. no shield, no udamage. BUT, YOU must pick it up every time it spawns. Point i'm tryin to make? I'm mostly likely still gonna win. Now, if you were to grab udamage and just whore Stinger Primary, even if i have a shield belt on, i wouldn't last 3 seconds. I'm dead. I spawn, guess what? U still have udamage, and i have no armor or anything. Another easy kill. If i'm not mistaken, DD lasts for 45 seconds. On a map like Sentinel, the match would be over in no time. Shield belt shouldn't even be considered a powerup anyway. x.X

Ehh.. it's just the ethics and I respected that, even though I didn't like it.. (even though I never understood see why Redeemer usage was wrong.. Unlike the U-Damage, it respawns every two minutes and only kills once.. or at least it should..) I just took the usual bad losses and shut up.. (though I occasionally complained, mostly to myself..) Of course, I eventually got tired of dueling and stopped all non-Instagib dueling altogether (I started this about a month and half or so ago..), since I personally prefer either the chaos and "mass" power-up usage of DM/ TDM or the vehicle modes.. or messing around offline.. with different mutators, custom maps, and bots.. along with the occasional titan match.. though Instagib dueling is another thing I'll do every so often.. Though....

Too many times people find something to pick on or have a go at others in different modes. Since I've played ut3 I've played duel only about 100-200 times and I got taught/told early on not to use the UD.
In kali's set up of a duel where if I was to play him I would get stacked on health and he was average on health I think I would still lose.
Duel = amazing aim, map control and reactions. Of course more attributes are involved thats not up for debate but I'd never pick up berserk, UD or the redeemer now.
I did read a post by Bumrush where he said whenever there is a shield belt there is a UD to counter it. Sure if I was duelling and someone picked it up I'd be a little annoyed but its not the end of the world. Plus if you have your settings on so you can hear other players you can avoid them for 30 seconds whilst you go around picking up health.

uDamage/Redeemer destroy the point of map control/ 'strategy' in the first place.

Like dan said, if i hear UD, i'll just run away, an toss out random shock cores in reverse, but ive only dueled a few times an had plenty of ppl use UD an Deemer in DM! to be honest, im better without the shield belt, i guess the belt gives me a sense of faulse comfort, an when i have less than 30 health is when i shine!

well as you were sayin that if u pick up the damage that you just must be scared that you cant"dodge my rockets" and w.e else...but if u think about it thats just the same as sayin that your scared your not goin to be able to land your shots on someone with a shield belt and that you need double damage to kill some1 if you do land your shots lol..having the shield belt does not change the way you play against that person just because your opponet has the shield belt that means your not going to be able to land your shots?...and it is pointless playin duel with no powerups because like some1 else was sayin it makes u move around the map and also many maps are pointless to play with no powerups like deck and shang not just because of the belt but also the boots

Thing is... even if you do pick them up they last 30 seconds.. Your gonna spend half that time trying to find them and the other half chasing them.
Redeemer is every 2 mins, a good dueler won't get beat by a player using redeemers and ud. Also they control the maps anyway so if anything not being able to use these things means the noobs have more chance.

On deck and he has udamage? I'm gonna hammerjump up to some crates and spots on the levels which are excellent hiding spots - there are plenty.
Uh check the thread I just made as I didn't see this one lol.

Even though I practice not using it, I still don't see that much of a problem with using the Redeemer. In a 10 minute duel (like most, I think), it's only going to respawn 5 times and 7, in a 15 minute duel. You could easily just take it (before they get it) and shoot it away, dodge, or deny it. I had to do this in order to finally (Yes, I know I suck.) beat a Godlike bot in duel, fair and square. (no U-Damage usage or Redeemers on my part.) When he got the U-Damage, I just used to sound to keep myself away from him whenever they got it, though I killed him once or twice, when he had it. (I didn't pick it up though.)

The redeemer is too much of a gamechanger destroying all health and a certain kill unless the one shooting it sucks. It destroys your belt, vest, boots etc which you've all been contesting all game long.

lol your whole complaint is about the shield belt you f***ing dimwit, put the crack pipe down.
you f***ing blow a** at ut3, why do you even waste your time playing it, let alone being a f***ing little girl on the forums "wahhh they keep getting these powerups that epic put all over the maps"
| He far from blows a ss! I find it funny, people who base other peoples value on "how good they may or may not be"! I will refer to this condition as the Paweezy complex, your one of the top players, so you think you can bash people who you view as inferior (skill wise)! I also highlighted a sentence from you, so you can reflect on the whole Udamage conversation, even though i dont want udamage at all in anymode! Have fun loathing in hypocrisy!
