You must have been the guardian I faced on shores of time the other day--oh what a dance we had.
He stood at B flag all by his lonesome, his eyasluna ready and waiting.
I, the ever rushing ingrate, made to attack. From my position on the stairs behind the corner to the hall to B flag I waited for the opportune moment. (I, also, with my eyasluna ready)
To my left an enemy assault, three shots and I laid him down [reload]
A shot hits from my right. The B flag master has taken a pot shot at me. [He reloads]
I fired two quick shots in his direction (missed) and returned to my corner [reload]
I peaked toward B flag and a shot whizzed by my head [he reloads]
I shadestep from cover and take three wild shots, two land, one registers [reload]
As I sprint for cover two shots penetrate my shoulder armor [he reloads]
Still he sits on my radar and I decide to chance tactics. Like a bunny version of Rambo I leap from cover, once, twice, landing in the center of the hallway, I take dead aim at his head and fire four shots. I shadestep behind the nearest wall [reload]
He has disappeared from my radar, I await my advancing team hoping they will provide respite from this dance. Their help does not come. They have all gone to attack A.
I decide enough of this silliness, I sprint from cover, shadestep the right, in one fluid motion readying my Saladin's vigil to disintegrate the B flag master. There he stands, on the flag itself firing wildly at me, shots are missing and going phantom and still I charge. I position myself perfectly, take aim at his feet, and...
[spoiler]have no shot because I haven't reloaded my special. Saladin weeps[/spoiler]
[spoiler]His teammate appears behind me and matadors me into oblivion[/spoiler]
[Reload]

I never have that problem as I always empty my special randomly firing at places I think a combatant might appear. Then spend the next 3 minutes looking for a green box. Thankfully shoulder charges reload automatically!
-
I've had a lot of people suggest that i use invective because I have the same problem. Always firing too early. I cannot tell you how many incredible sniper head shots I would have had had the person come around the corner one second sooner
-
Wow. That ending. I cried. Then reloaded my tears and cried some more.
-
This was suspenseful!!!
-
It's funny, because I was deep into the story... and then you said your team were all taking "A". I went from anticipation to anger. How could they?! What were they thinking?!
-
I love shores of time for every mode other than control. I've never had a team that can play that map competently. The times when i can get 6 together we don't get that map. It's infuriating

[quote]...have no shot because I haven't reloaded my special. Saladin weeps[/quote] LOL!

Edited by DEAN_67__MI: 11/25/2016 4:04:48 PMMan that was a great story! The ending sucked, but it was like I was right there! That's because I know your pain.
-
I think we all know the pain. The pain of being so close to a kill only to be hit by matador [engage narrator from 300 voice] "From half a world away!"
-
Lol right!! Sniper shotties!!
-
I don't know what you are talking about... that ending was gold.
-
He died! Just like all the times I died the same way! It's sad to die that way! Don't you agree?
