Getting bored?

[PotatoCannon]

Have you played the eGO games for so long your bored?
Well here 10 tips to help you out.

1. For the army type games DoD, CS, CoD4 just start acting like its real with your imagianation ive had tons of fun with this.
2. Try new classes. If your always pyro on TF2 or assualt on DoD why not switch it up.
3. Try different maps still go on the eGO maps but every once in a while ttry out some new ones. ( the custom made maps are very fun ).
4. Take a break try some other games than come back in a week or two.
5. Do some fun things with other people. ex. All team one class. Only melee.
6. Do some activities like roadtrips.
7. Go on and just have fun talk to people make new friends dont be as sireous. ( but dont get out of control ).
8. Enter contests. eGO has many contests on the site why not try entering some.
9. Make a video. You can tape some cool, funny or weird stuff on the game and make a video then post it on YouTube
10. ............................Do what works for you many of us do things to keep us entertained so do it.

hope these help.

just curious, what are "road trips"?
edit: also i've been doing this alot lately. i'll look at the "class selection" screen (tf2) and whatever there is the least of, i play that (unfortunately its usually spy; which i suck at)

Heres an Idea for all Tf2 and Css players. Surfing. Put s into the server filter whilst searching for a server and a few servers should appear with map called surf_(mapnamehere). They can be great fun trying to master and good for earning achievments on. I earned half my medic and pyro achievments on such servers. Its tricky at first but great fun once your used to it. Probably best played on tf2 though as you don't have to worry about not repawning. Gives you more of A chance to explore the map.

Road trips are when a group of people from one of r servers goes as a group to a non- ego server for a bit. There are many vareations but that is the main idea

 

[AWPerator]

Road Trip is an eG/eGO only event in which we go into vent, and then enter other people's servers as one big group.

Its great fun, but only eG and higher have access to it, as we want to make sure that the people who are representing us in other servers have proved themselves as responsible.

Not to say that many e's aren't responsible, but they just haven't proven it to the ones who call all the shots up top

hmm, that surf thing sounds interesting

or you could try playing the wii drunk as i have heard that is the only way you will have fun with it, not saying i have tried it before haha but i really think my wii is a waste of money

 

[Rellik]

i don't play it alot, but i love my wii. maybe you got crappy games?
(my most played)
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Guitar Hero 3
Marble Mania

all great (sober)

but @ Road Trip: oh ok. done that before (with others) didn't know thats what it was called

.......lets keep to the topic

I've got an idea that Has really helped me spruce things up.

When you go and play a game you have never seen before, what is it that drives you to play it? My theory is that it's the goals. Oh, let's try to kill 8 of that type of thing before I die. I know that in G-mod, I've spawned about 20 antlion guards and tried to kill them all only using the crowbar.

So do this for any of the games. I play tf2, so, for example, try to set up a sentry gun against the opposing player's fort. When it's a good team. It's a challenge, for sure. How about getting 10 kills with sticky bombs before you die? How about having an overall kill ratio of 5:1?

There are endless goals, or ideas that you can think up to make your gaming experience much better. That's one of the things I do, and certainly, It helps.

I always just played the class that I have the least time with, which usually means the class I'm the worst at. It used to be the demoman, and now I can say that he's my favorite class. Next it was the spy with least time, so I played the spy a bunch and watched a few turorials. Now I'm pretty dirty with the spy. Next is the heavy for me... that will be a struggle.
