Unit 13; reporting for duty.

Well I've been doing a sick amount of Rainbow 6: Vegas lately. I really love the game. However I've been interested in branching out and revisiting other games that I have and enjoy. It's been consuming the 2Old4Tactics clan for a while now. I feel like I've really grown my skills and improved since joining the clan and playing regularly.

It's time to revisit another love of mine.

Chromehounds.

I've not played it a while. I've been a bit skittish about playing it, it pretty much destroyed ChewdyFu's Xbox 360 and gave it the red-circle of death. It has been acting a bit flakey for me as well. I put it into the console today and it had a game update from their patch system. So hopefully that will address the problems. It's probably one of the most fickle games I own or have seen.

I contacted the Chromehounds thread about joining up with a squad. So we'll see how that goes. I played a Sniper the majority of the time. I had a Soldier class mech I would use as a 'stand-in' on maps that weren't Sniper friendly. I really was just beginning to play a Commander. I think I could do a good job of one as well too; so it's a role and class I'm very interested in exploring and practicing. A part of me really enjoys the "dispatch" aspect of it, head-down watching the radar monitor and providing intel to the team or orchestrating things a bit more strategically. Instead of always in the trenches thinking tactically.

We'll see how that goes. I've been really missing it lately. In fact my ranting about Chromehounds and the incredible amounts of fun i was having with it, actually convinced a friend of mine at work to pick up an Xbox 360. Sadly shortly after that I went into a lull and didn't so much as even pop the disc into the console in fear that it'd slag my system as well.

So on that note! I'm looking forward to getting back into Chromehounds!!
