BFV: You're dead to me

Those were good times, okay? We had some fun together, we laughed... we cried... we let loose the fury of coordinated attacks together, but that special feeling is gone. You can''t tell me you don''t feel it too... the gradual waning of my already lackluster in-game performance, my quiet mutterings of ""not tonight, I have a headache"". And then there were the many times over on one map last night where I flew my helicopter into the trees. You had to know my heart just wasn''t in it anymore.

You''re still a special little game, and some other gamer will come along one day and make you feel like the superstar you are. But now, its time to maintain a healthy distance so that those few times we run into one another aren''t filled with awkward silences and muted cursing at your interface.

It''s not you, it''s me.

I see what you mean, Swamp.

<breaks out his fiddle>

The devil went down to ''Nam
He was lookin'' for a soul to steal
He was in a Mi-8
''Cause he was way behind
And he was willin'' to frag to make a deal

When he came upon this young man
Shooting his m60 and shooting it hot
And the devil jumped
Out in the sweltering swamp
And said boy let me tell you what

I guess you didn''t know it
but I''m a BFV player too
And if you care to take a dare I''ll make a bet with you

Now you shoot a good machine gun, boy
But give the devil his due
I''ll bet a flag of gold
Against your soul
''Cause I think I''m better than you

The boy said my name''s SwampY
And it might be a sin
But I''ll take your bet
And you''re gonna regret
''Cause I''m the best there''s ever been

SwampY load up your m60 and shoot it hot
Cause hell''s broke loose in ''Nam and the devil calls the shots.
And if you win you get this shiny flag made of gold
But if you lose the devil gets your soul.

The devil popped in a shell
And he said I''ll start this show
And sparks flew along his barrel
As he loaded his RPK with one pull

Then he pulled his finger against the trigger
And it made a [sic] evil clatter
And a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this

[Instrumental]

When the devil finished
SwampY said well you''re pretty good old son
Just sit right in that fox hole right there
And let me show you how it''s done

He fired his m60 in one long chain
Run boys, run
The devil''s in the land of monsoon rain
Snakes in the swamp water, cowering low
Sonny does your machete bite
No child, no

[Instrumental]

The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he''d been beat
And he laid that golden flag
On the ground at SwampY''s feet

SwampY said, Devil just come on back
If you ever wanna try again
I done told you once you son of a Female Doggo
I''m the best there''s ever been

He fired his m60 in one long chain
Run boys, run
The devil''s in the land of monsoon rain
Snakes in the swamp water, cowering low
Sonny does your machete bite
No child, no

[Instrumental to end]

LOL! How long did that take you? One of the funniest posts ever.

I see what you mean, Swamp.

The commercial that had him climbing up the stairs staring at the camera made me sleep with my shotgun under the pillow for a week. Creeeeepy.

About 10 minutes. Bastardizing lyrics is kind of fun.

I like tropical islands, not tropical jungles:). That''s why
I like Far Cry so much. Beautiful. But JO is just so big
and so much is happening, it''s neat to just look around
and admire (and I like to ''smell the roses''...oh wait, i.e.
''smell the orchid''

(and then there''s AA )

Ok, I want to be the subject of ""Hit Me Baby, One More Time"".

(That was hilarious, BTW)

I think you should do ""You Picked a Fine Time to Leave Me, Marlin.""

Ooh! Or ""All My Buddies Play Joint Ops"" to the tune of ""All My Exes"".

Or for a rockier bent, ""Ramble On"" or ""That''s the Way"" (Led Zeppelin). Or ""Stairway to JO"", since everyone knows Stairway.

Gee, you''d think you''d like JO since Indonesia is a bunch of tropical islands.

Are you sure? I bet the repeated refrain, ""Now hubb me baby, one more time"" might not be your cup of tea.

Very funny stuff. I don''t have the patience (or talent, I suppose) to think of something that funny.

Lots of us WSA people are still enamored of BFV and plan to keep playing it. Maybe I''ll host it, maybe we''ll just get our freak on with a public server.

I''ve still only played JO the one time so maybe my opinion will change but for now BFV is my multiplayer of choice.

Funny stuff, especially Druid''s song! I bought BF:V only a month ago, because I saw how much GWJ''ers played it. I never really got into it, and then JO came out. I havn''t played that much BF:V, honestly, and as someone else said I feel a bit guilty buying it and spending so little time with it, before moving on to JO. Oh well, I''m enjoying JO - when I can find time to play it, which lately is very little.

I''ll see you guys Thurs. night, though. I hope.

I think my eyes are misty - they seemed so happy together....

It was just a summer fling, that''s all.

Broken hearted, she started bouncing from server to server, eventually becoming just another cheap trick.....

No, no, Battlefield 1990 won''t come out until next year. That''s the one where you sit on your heels doing nothing in either Panama, Japan, South Korea, West Germany, or sunny Saudi Arabia.

I''d have thought BF1990 would be based in or around Iraq. Or Eastern Europe.

Speaking of modern FPSes, you know what''s missing? Civilians. And Courts Martial.

Edit: I''d actually like to see this game get made. I''d preorder this game.

Duck, do you want youre avatar to be a little red ""X""?

No. Thought I was being clever using Yahoo! Photo hosting. Damn. Must find free avatar host. Arg, blah.

Just go avatarless. The grey space gives you an air of sophistication since you''re too cool for an avatar.

Or laziness. Whichever.

I''m sure it''s laziness, oh tagless one!

Hey, blame Certis on that one. Unless I''m supposed to send him a PM or something. I need a nap after all this effort.

I thought with Minase the lack of an avatar was a statement about his abilities as a sniper to become one with his background. All he needs is an intermittent muzzle flash and it would be perfect.

Oh, Christ, Duck - I like the ""X"" better! :LOL:

Oh, Christ, ...- I like the ""X"" better!

Just a bit of OoCT for ya.
Man, that''s funny.
