[DEN Multiplayer Topic]

[Rolk]

This topic is is for you -vs- other Den members. And only Den members.

Basically, if you want to post some results, or anything like that, screenshots or even links to replays. Do it in here!

I just had 3 games versus spider786. Good sport he is! First game, I was Scrin vs his GDI - on the map . He got in first for the Tiberium spike in the middle which sent me chasing after it until I finally gave up and went for his main base with Aircraft.

Second game, I was a bit cruel as GDI, and Ion Cannon'd his defenseless base. Then rushed in with 15 mammoth tanks and 4 predators.

Third game, I decided to go as Nod, not having played them very much in multiplayer. And wow, I don't know the map, but I always had alot of money (Tiberium field in middle, tall map, with one tib spike at each side). Was probably our longest game. I ended up hitting-and-running with stealth tanks, as well as Scorpion tanks (upgraded are dangerous).

Was great fun and a great couple of games. I am also on the Den's Hamachi network, so look me up (also contactable in MSN)

Since this thread is kinda not being touched, i suggest it be turned into a game replay thread, to post multi player replays between den members.

anyway, here's mine, played a few games with wargrudge (compstomp), got steam rolled first game by 2 hard comps, and wargrudge got nuked in second game against single brutal turtler.

this is a replay of the second game.

i was scrin, and wargrudge was gdi. (my 2nd real game as scrin)

anyway, gnite.

Max, Stompy, and I just played a round of games. We did a round robin with the odd man observing, so we all got to play each other. I have the replays of me vs. Stompy and Stompy vs. Maximuz, but I forgot to save me vs. Maximuz, so you won't be able to watch that one. All the games were played on Tournament Arena, I'll give a brief synopsis of each game:

Kered13 (GDI) vs. Maximuz (Nod)-It started with the typical Pred vs. Scorp tanks spam, Maximuz gained a small early lead with his numers, but I built an airfield and some orcas. After getting him out of my base I tried to push the offensive, but Max had already teched up to lasers, forcing my Predators to retreat. However, before his Scorpians could reach my base I brought in the Orcas, with his Scorpians weakened I pushed my Predators forwards again and moved towards his blue tiberium. En route my railgun upgrade finished, and my Predators and Mammoths rolled virtually unopposed into his base. Max wasn't entirely finished yet though, as I was surprised to find that my base was under attack in two locations from Stealth Tanks, however it was too late for Max and he quit before I could finish his base.

Kered13 (GDI) vs. Stompy (Nod)-Stompy was quick to garrison the bunkers around the south spike, securing it for the rest of the battle. While I quickly built a ref and two harvesters at each field, Stompy's decision not to build a crane slowed down his initial economy. From here the usual tank spam ensued. I again went for fast Orcas to assist my tanks, while Stompy went secretly built an airfield and a large force of Venoms in the back of his base. This last part I learned when attacking he sent his Venoms to rape my Orcas and Predators while attempting to attack his base, right after his laser upgrade had completed and right before my railguns. Pressing the advantage, he sent his Venoms to my main supplies to raid my Harvesters, but timely Mammoths and some AA turrets prevented them from doing any more damage. During all of this a Mammoth and a few Predators destroyed his blue tiberium expansion and moved to attack his tech lab, but were stopped by more Venoms. A zone trooper dropped succeeded in taking out one of his two airfields, but another immediately popped up. At this time I also sold my own airfield, as Orcas wouldn't be much use anymore. I attacked with my Mammoths and Predators, and succeeded in destroying a WF and some scorpians, but there were too many Venoms to do any more damage. During the following interlude I rebuilt my Mammoths, this time with some added Pitbulls and he repaired his Venoms. I launched an EMP strike to destroy his two AFs and started to follow up with my new force, but he sent his Venoms to my blue expansion and I diverted my forces. His Venoms made quick work of the expansion and then moved on to my base, focusing no powerplants. While my AA guns were offline he destroyed my main supplies, but by this time my lumbering Mammoths had arrived. Two quickly placed powerplants got my AA turrets back online, and together with my tanks they began to finally do some real damage to his Venoms, but not before he destroyed my last refinery, tech lab, and a WF. At this point I had little left in my base, but I did have enough money to rebuild a refinery. I still had a large force though, and I immediately sent them all to attack his base. He had rebuilt his Venoms, but there weren't enough. To make matters worse they clustered together while moving, allowing my Mammoths to take out large numbers at a time with their splash damage. With little left Stompy attempted to spam fanatics, but they were never able to get close enough to damage my Mammoths. At this point Stompy quit.


I have to go right now, but when I get back home I'll add a synopsis of Stompy vs. Max, as well as the replays I have.

[Stompy]

Good games Derek :)

If I work a little more on my Venom BO, I think I've got a good winner that makes it a bit more interesting than tank v tank.

[Derek]

Well Venoms alone won't cut it. I suggested Vertigos, and you used them against Max (although not to the best of their abilities), but if you stick to just air you won't win. Even when you have a horde of Venoms and some Vertigos, you should still keep pumping out Scorpians at the very least, and give some thought to Stanks and Beam Tanks, they can be deadly when used well (and a waste of money when not).

I've decided that instead of posting a synopsis of Stompy vs. Max, I'm going to try to telestrate the replay. I tried to do it in game but it didn't save (I think the option was turned off when the game was being hosted). Assuming it works, I'll post the replay and you can listen to it.

Man this breaks my heart. The demo does not work on my comp and don't have xp for vista which i believe is required for the game. :\

[Annihlator :D]

Anyone mind playing a game with me, I'm a noob and i'm sick but I'd love to play with someone from the den tonight,no not you derek

[Spider786]

i have some time for a quick game.

[gho$tface]

I'll be on there at about 8 est if someone wants a game. I'm doing missions right now.

Just finished an awsome FFA game with me(Andehh), Stompy, crampy & max on rocktagon. iwas nod, stompy was nod, max & crampy scrin AFAIK anyway.

I started off whining about being attacked, was juggling txting & MSN at the same time and those took priority(...my excuse anyway :p). I managed 2 fight off a few skirmishes from crampy whilst stompy & max bashed each other around for a bit. From what i heard max sent his MCV at stompy first thing, only for stompy 2 capture it with an engi. Max swiftly delt with crampy who wouldnt leave me alone(git! :p), but then he had to leave so was defeated aswell, leaving just me and stompy.

Having delt with those 2 stompy didnt have much else left but i was too preoccupied to make the most out of him being so helpless. I instead spent the time turning my base into fort knox.

Eventually i got bored & ran out of things to defend so i massed some venoms and avators and had a poke around his base, took out half the structures then nuked the rest, like you do. Not much else happened, i presumed he was all but dead so left him to make my base look a bit better(was a bit of a mess & everything has to be done in style! :p). After a while i got bored so figured id have a scout around the map and see what the oh so quiet stompy was up to. Nearly had a heart attack when my few venoms got knocked out of the sky instantly by a huge base, complete with army of avators & flying earwigs. I was well & truely mortified. Ill leave the rest up to the replay.

Last 25mins is a good show of an extreme turtler vs huge army, good show of how easy it is to get past defences if they arnt powered!

Excuse any blatent mistakes in the re-telling of it, im knackered and in need of sleep. Should give you an idea of what to expect though.

http://www.agrityresdirect.co.uk/toby/goodgame.cncreplay - cheers stompy for hosting it.

[Stompy]

I had the carriers (flying earwigs) just outside andy's base for ages, in the tiberium chasm bits at the edge of the map that you're not supposed to be able to get into! When he discovered my second base, I sent those in to destroy as many power plants as I could at the rear of his base to disable his 334897629 defensive turrets, allowing my avatars to march in the front door and wipe him out.

Oh, and a good bit of bluffing helped me on the way. We were on teamspeak during the game and my moans of "**** i've got no money" "i'm screwed" etc. obviously convinced him :p

[Derek]

Ok, it has been determined after experimintation at GR.org that the replay between Stompy and Max that I tried to shoutcast is ****ed and its impossible to add voice commentary to it.

So I'll just post the two replays I have here. Me vs. Stompy and Stompy vs. Max.

[OneWiseSith]

I will be on tonight @7pm EST, hopefully other den members will be on as well and we can hook up for some C & C 3 games, perhaps in the future all den members can check lobby room 20 for other members and make it a default room for DGNF members to play. Just a thought. I will check here before I log in tonight. PM me if you like and we can set up some gaming. My screen name is OwNaGEuNseEn. I will use DeathMaker once most of the problems have been dealt with.

[Derek]

OneWiseSith and I played a few games just now. The first two were 1v1s, both GDI (me) vs. Nod (him). Like Stompy he likes to spam Venoms, and in fact did so better than Stompy, but he completely neglected his ground army, so once I stopped his Venoms (with much difficulty, I'll admit) my Mammoths were unopposed, that was the first game. In the second game I tried a new BO I had seen before, building about 10 Pitbulls and useing them to raid harvesters. I only managed to destroy one harvester, but I kept him busy, I also took down several Venoms while I was at it. After I teched up I built firehawks (in the previous game I had built my typical Orcas), with these I took out an Obelisk and a refinery, and then had them air guard over his airfield, eleminating his Venoms and Vertigos. I then finish him off with Mammoths. The first game was very close, in the second I played a bit better and it was more one sided. Finally, we played a 2v2, Scrin (me) and Nod (him) vs. 2 GDI. It started out alright, but OneWiseSith forgot to build a ground army to accompany his Venoms again, and I'm not especially experianced with Scrin. It was a good game, but we were both steam rolled by railgun Mammoths.

[OneWiseSith]

Derek is an elite skilled played. His strategic mind posses both depth and scope. Extremely proficient in the game.

[MaXiMuZZZ]

Anyone up for a game now?

My nickname's ExAequo, so say hi if you manage to find me in one of those lobbies. ;)


Edit: For those who like to watch replays - here's one of me as Scrin in a 2vs2 game. Start didn't go all too well, but I got my economy up quickly and then took them out with a mix of Shock Troopers(Extra Crispy!) and Tripods. One enemy had ~6 carriers, and as you will see they go down pretty fast! ;)

[OneWiseSith]

Here is a take down of a 10-0 player using a scrin base rush against me.2885 Short replay under 4 mins
