basically

JP at door, JP at cp1 flagspawn, JP at cp2 flagspawn

Prime conc when you hit cp1 JP, keep rampsliding up to cp2

CP2 JP will let you rampslide up the two ramps going to cp3, you want to hit the conc as you're ending the second rampslide. It'll actually throw you over the sniper nest bridge thingy.

Then you have to fall back down, rampslide the final ramp into a supertrimp and land on cp4

It is glorious, I have only done it a few times and I don't think I have it on demo yet. Might try when I get people together.

idk if anyone mentioned this, i got sick of reading the posts.. but for me i love the laser grenade for one reason in a soldier's POV -- the laser nade tells you when someone is coming to the area you're defending via the damage indicator. so you get a warning and can predict when to shoot before they're even in sight, its honestly more useful than the nail grenade that just slows down the game and gets you lucky kills sometimes. tons of people will just cruise through your laser and take a little damage where as a nail grenade they'll just avoid it/randomly get killed.

and in an offensive pov -- its fun to avoid/funny when you think you're going to avoid it but misjudge it and totally go right through it lol.

i agree with whoever said a little bit of a damage increase would be good, itd be a little more incentive for people to maneuver around them.

Thanks, I'm here all week.

This piqued my interest. About how many people did Talos ban?

Nostromo banned me a month or two ago for -- I think-- trash talk. "I think" because Nos didn't warn or even kick. I played out the evening with him and Sky, then was banned when I tried to connect the next day. And my request for a Talos forum account has been awaiting moderator approval since then...

What disillusionment. Since most of Talos is laid back and tolerant (ahem, Skywalker), I was doubly surprised when Nos responded in this passive-aggressive and insecure way.

But if he's paying the bills on it, then whatever. I'm just curious about how many other people were banned.

I also wonder if I'm the first person to get banned on Talos but not O-T.

same thing happened to me, he banned me without saying anything about a month ago for mocking him. a permaban for some banter isn't what I'd expect on that server. hah and yeah, remarkably I'm also in that category with o-t
