If u cannot lean or u don't like to lean don't post about it because u are not a fan. So go somewhere where somebody cares about it. I think leaning is the best and only the best do it!

I think ppl that can work a keyboard/mouse can lean...not just the "best".
Wow I never thought I would read such a post as this, "Only the best lean" Hmm where to begin, first off are you talking about the lean around corners or lean when comming around a corner, in this case I would say yea, that does help, its a pretty normal use of everyday S.W.A.T. and S.E.A.L. team training.
If you are refering to the lame bind your keys so that you walk all the time leaning left and right looking like a bobbing doll on your grandma's station wagon, I would have to say your totally wrong, and things like that in my opinion are only an abuse of the game, just like someone exploiting a bug in the game, its neither realistic or common sense to do this, just a retarded way to play a game that wasnt meant to be played this way.
I know some of you will bash me for this and some might agree, but when I look at these people doing this, it just annoys the hell out of me, I dont use that type of play and never have, it ranks right along side bunnyhopping, wich in many opinions is just cheesy, as a matter of fact numerous gaming magazines and ladders have agreed also, unfortunately theres nothing anyone can do but watch some guy with a shotty jump across the whole map and kill some noob or less skilled player, so he can look better with that extra kill or two.
So I say to you mr bobbing lean guy, and mr bunnyhopper, there will be a day when they actually make the game right, maybe a stamina bar or some other method of controlling these abuses of the game, and when that happens hehe I cant wait to see your precious kills drop, when you have to use real skill and tactics.
And I dont have too many problems killing these types of players, it just makes me laugh that much more when they get owned.
Leaning when used properly is a great tool in moh.. but for the others that use quick leans out in the open to "dodge" the bullet the only thing it does is make skilled players laugh as they mow you down. It basically is a source of amusement like hitting a clown in the face with a pie.. if you take the leaning out in the open thing seriously as a serious tactic.. don't take yourself to serious because if it's worked in your favor it's only becuase you play noobs.
Rift, I totally agree with you. I like to keep things realistic when it comes to this game. So I dont believe that soldiers in WWII used this constant leaning tactic when they ran towards the enemy. I dont do it, and I dont allow my soldiers to do it. What is really sad, is that I have seen this tactic used by most of the top ranked teams on TWL. (especially in matches) I just dont have any respect for people that constantly lean. It's totally fine when it's used the correct way, though. I guess that there are only a handful of realistic gamers here.
"I am not a hero, but I serve in a company of heroes."
It is kinda sad when ppl struggle to scrape up any little edge to get one more kill than someone else. Can we make a mod to go on good servers that doesnt count individual kills? Maybe just a team kill total with the deaths deducted out or maybe just a big message on the screen at the end that says " Allies win!".
I've always thought individual scores ruin team oriented games for this very reason, maybe its just me... Post edited by Killet at 8/13/2002 5:27:37 PM
Yea you both nailed it on the head, this game is based on a realistic event and realistic objects and movement yet, you can pretty much do physical things no one can or would want to do, yes its unfortunate that teams do this and individuals, I for one do not use these shall we say "GAY" tactics.
I totally agree individual scores do take away from the games in a way, but I also like to see how I am doing and other people in the server, im not sure I would want to take that out of the gaming genre, guess we cant have it both ways.
I would however like to see in the future, products made with these exact things in mind, bunnyhopping, leaning, bugs in general, I also think this nade spam is getting quite old, I play sof2 also, and on almost all the maps each team runs to a certain point and hucks all thier nades, trying to get as many kills as possible, in fact numerous maps thats all it is, nades and more nades, no skill or tactics in two teams running at each other and tossing every nade in thier arsenal, same thing happens in mohaa, I join a game and eventually it turns into rockets or nades, a couple of guys who are not so good eventually get tired of losing and run down the street tossing nades, wich soon leads into rockets and spawn killing over and over again, yea thats how these games are played unfortunately we have to deal with it untill some company fixes that and changes the way FPS (First Person Shooters) are made and played, it can and will be done eventually.
Untill then I say bunnyhopping and leaning like a bobbing doll is a NooB tactic, for people that need a edge over the people that kick thier ass.
U want realism, Go play AA. Ight?, One of the best parts of MOH is leaning, and NO i dont bind keys, thats 4 n00bs. I've been playing since the first day of the demo realise and then on. I've mastered leaning with my fingures.. Erhem, like i said if u want realism dont bother playing MOH, its only 1 of the best FPS games our there... In reply 2 Rift, Bro, u hate leaning so much why do u play MOH, when r u gonna setup those strafe keys and relise how much better u will do when u start running circles around peeps while leaning.. heh, that doesnt give away my technics I SWARE, u kno make ur own server put an anti rocket mod on or some ISH, with a nade mod (Limits Amount), "leaning like a bobbing doll is a NooB tactic", u kno 4 a DooM memeber that shocks me, If anything ur post looks more like a whining customer or some sh*t, i dunno man, If u put a meter 4 stamna or w/e u were saying, it wouldnt be the MOH it is now it would accauly ruin some fun unless ur realy into realism, so w/e i lean, i own j00's, The End Post edited by TuEKiD at 8/14/2002 2:51:33 AM
You leaning dweebs don't know squat. Man, you wanna own people you gots to SQUAT! Squat, I say! Squat...and RUN! Yes, RUN! Run FAST...run AWAY...run AROUND IN CIRCLES! Oh and for cryinoutloud...PULL THE TRIGGER! INDEED YOU CLUELESS CRETINS! Pull the trigger like a spastic madman!!! And POINT! Point at something you wanna own! Point at the tree! The building! The ground! Hell, try the ENEMY! If you can't manage that...POINT AT YER TEAMMATES AND OWN THEM!!!
[sarcasm off]
Egad, where are the rocks that such people crawl out from under from and why can't we sell that place to like Mongolia?
Here here... for fairness lets not lump all leaners into the same category.. Their are 3 basic types..
1) The skilled leaner that leans around corners and leans into corners just like you WOULD do in real life to expose smaller parts of themselves. Most of the best MOH players I'v seen can do this.
2) The wobble leaner who leans just about everywhere even out in the open and often quick wobbles ... where the lean is meant to "confuse" the other players and "dodge bullets"
3) The Lean binder who binds lean and strafe to the same keys.
Now lets make THIS the issue please.. What do you think is fair/legit skilled or lame of the 3 diff. Types
Myself I think #1 is legit and skilled and think 2 and 3 are bad. #2 is just annoying with not much skill and not effective against skilled players #3 is just plain lame.
I operate a dedicated MOH server and dont allow #3 and will tolerate #2 if its not ALL the time but find it annoying.
Hehe way to bash someone for an opinion there kid, thats my opinion, this is still america right??
As for your remarks to running around and leaning, I stand by my statement and opinion, its not only lame, it makes you look stupid. So run around and lean and do whatever it is you have to do, cause I will hunt you down everytime and then laugh at you afterwards.
