I think I've seen you once but you don't play conflict much? I tend to see the same people but most aren't on this forum.

[Koopa007]

i usually play TC, Heroes or GE mode.
I play conflict rarely. Usually when i'm partied up with Tampa, since he prefers conflict.

i think this game has got a fairly small group of dedicated players. i don't know whether that is enough to say it is a bit of a cult thing.

i'm a bit older and havn't played many computer games since 2000 or so. i've played CoD on the PS3 but I can't say I was particularly impressed by it. I think Goldeneye is the better game in both SP and MP, maybe that's because the SP reminds me of the N64 or older games like quake etc.

I prefer conflict in this game as i think it makes you stand on your own two feet and to be honest i find the other modes more complicated. I play TC occasionally but not heroes and I don't think I've played a single full game on BB.

p.s IMOH the walkways in facility are very similar in look to Star Wars: Jedi Knight from like 1997 or something. I don't know if anyone else remembers playing this.

gg to [FKU]}{aTmaN...I was "ArustySCRUB" tonight since I haven't played in a while. Sorry for the delays between games. After that REALLY laggy, slow experience in the previous game while hosting, I was NOT going to go through that again. Nice playing with you!

I don't really have the right of word here, since i don't play conflict often.
But my experience of it is, that unless you run into the occasional good player,
Conflict these days is a less competetive mode than heroes. I played two archives matches today going 30-5.
The dude on second place raked in about 18 kills, and he did so by camping in closed of spots with his masterton...
Ofc. my experience with it is limited. So i can be completely wrong about this.
Tampa probably knows better than me.

It depends entirely on who you are playing with. Conflict does have it's "regulars" who will repeatedly camp and spam their way through maps trying to win. But I've also found this to be true in heroes as well - particularly when it comes to spawn locking.

I would say that more "experienced" players play heroes because it is a popular team game, and being "experienced" players, they have more friends on their FC lists to play with in the first place. To me, Golden Gun and Goldeneye mode contain the "weakest" of all fields in the game, as these modes often have the crap farmed out of them. I can't remember the last time I played either of those modes and there wasn't at least one player xp farming their way through it [and not doing the objective].

Me personally, I prefer conflict because I enjoy an all-out frag-fest. No teams. All enemies. Shoot anything that moves. I find it more challenging to fend off 7 other players at once, than having to only worry about 4 other players, and having 3 other people on my team to "back me up."

Couldn't have said it better myself. I would like team play more if there was a better way coordinate with your team. Conflict has an element of Zen to it where team play can seem very hectic and random at times. I prefer the former.

Very eloquently put! Something I have thought before but was unable to put into words.

I spent some time in a Zen monastery last year. They tend to be quite shy and retiring (and also passive-aggressive). I'm not sure what they would make of Goldeneye.

I think conflict appeals to more introverted types.
