Day 13 - Good bomb planting in 3rd Supply Base


You can hear the sound.
You can see the clock ticking.
But you can't find the bomb.
Where the hell they planted it???


Moral of the story:
If you are going to plant the bomb anyway,
and you have to confront the enemy as well,
why not just hide it somewhere they can't see?

Day 12 - Vaxx is the 3rd most lifeless player in Sudden Attack SEA


Sudden Attack SEA is quite a popular game.
Even Blueserver used to have 4 thousands player online at peak.
And Vaxx ranks 3rd among several hundred thousands player.
How many hours he spent not doing other things but playing this?


Of course, he won the decisive round without much effort.
He is the 3rd highest ranked player in Sudden Attack SEA after all.
Unlike normal RPG games you have to constantly play to keep your rank.
If you stop for a month you're bound to lose some edge.

p/s, To all the lifeless online gaming people: may you improve your game every single day.

Day 11 - Killing is not the actual objective of the game


People always assume games with guns are always about the killing.
The one with most kill record will always be regarded as pro.
If I choose to plant bomb at late games I'll get voted out of the room.
Then what's the point of having the bomb planting feature in the game?


Counter Strike was a failure among local players because of this.
The assumption is you have to be a sniper to be pro.
You have to kill a lot without getting killed.
The idea of teamwork: stay alive or get the hell out of the game.


In Counter Strike, only 1 player carries the C4 charges.
In Sudden Attack SEA, everyone in terrorist team have one.
The person planted or defused the bomb get extra points if their team win.
This opened a floodgate of possibilities in strategy planning.

If you study the nature of the game and understand it.
Instead of just wanting to blow some heads.
Winning games are not just a possibility.
You might very well end up getting called "pro".

Day 10 - My second recorded promotion in Sudden Attack SEA

Day 8 - Dragunov and my blog's first follower

I gave up trying to use Scout SR-69 in Sudden Attack SEA.
The sniper rifle don't have enough damage to kill with one bullet.
Every time I reload for a killer shot, I get killed by a shot.
Unless I'm lucky enough to get a head shot, Scout SR-69 suck.


Then a friend told me to try Dragunov instead.
99% damage with 100% accuracy.
The best part is the firing rate is a lot higher than Scout SR-69.
I can fire it like a machine gun, as long as I control the recoil.





A 2-0 start with Dragunov.
Not exactly a challenging game, but a win is still a win!

p/s: I HAVE A FOLLOWER FOLLOWING MY BLOG :D Thank you Cracz Thong.

Day 7 - Watch your back, always

You were the only survivor in your team.
So was the other lone survivor of your opponent's team.
You searched high and low for a kill of glory.
But he was nowhere to be found.


So, "maybe I should plant a bomb," you thought.
Maybe that will lure him out in the open.
You happily turned around and planted the bomb at your favorite spot.
Unaware that he was already checking out your back.


"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The familiar sound of Black AK-47 rocked the field.
Your body deformed into a pool of blood.
Your killer took his own sweet time to mock you before ending the game.


Moral of the story: watch your back, always.

Day 6 - It's not easy being a sniper


I'm good with machine guns in Sudden Attack SEA, but not sniper rifles.
But I have to learn how to use one to balance my games.
They are accurate and they do a lot of damage with one shot.
The best part is you can kill from a map's length away.


The training result? 1 kill 13 deaths, as bad as I expected.
The 1 kill I had was a victim defusing the bomb I planted.
But I felt good because I setup the trap and he took the bait.
Other than that, the you can describe the whole game with one word - "shit".

Day 5 - A promotion and a glitch


I got a promotion in Sudden Attack SEA!
The new rank is Gunnery Sergeant 2nd Grade.
The symbol didn't change much, only an added dot on the side.
But it marks the hours spent/wasted on the game.


I was trying to learn how to be a sniper.
I bought a seven days Scout SR-69 and a one day Desert Eagle.
Went into a public game and saw a character named palito killed several people in a row with TRG-21.
I thought he was really good, unless I checked his view and found out he glitched the game.

Day 4 - Creativity wins it all



Look, it's a bird... no. It's a plane... no.
It's a creative player who shoots you from above.
According to others, he wasn't hacking the game.
All he did was "stack", jumping on top of one player's head, and then onto places you normally can't reach.

Day 3 - A battle won and new friends made



A few days ago Leo Casper suggested to play against XiaoYu15.
XiaoYu15 was said to be a great female Sudden Attack SEA player.
In a weird twist of fate, my squad actually battled her squad.
My squad won, but it was because the rest of her squad were incompetent.

Day 2 - My first squad battle



Had my first Squad Battle with _Loyalty_.
LMAO invited me to join the squad out of the blue.
Apparently my panic sprays and hopping around impresses them.
Now I'm the Vice of the squad.



Yes, they were talking about glitching the roof.
Which I assume they want to stack and go over the roof, and which they did.
I prefer to rush, and so I rushed.
Had a few kills, and they asked me to just camp.



They have great confidence in each other.
They have no regards for unspoken rules, maybe the spoken one too.
When the time comes they'll do anything to win.
After all a win is a win, no?
