Soloing myself


BackFire

 

Posted

I've made a 1-mission 'for fun' arc which is basically just a boss fight against my main, MrCaptainMan. I made myself an extreme/extreme en/enEB, picked a tiny map, 3 boss fights chained so the maps empty apart from me, and one or two of myself as the enemy group associated with me.

Taking my 50 en/en blaster in was amusing. I could solo myself if I was on my own, but if i accidentally aggrod 2 of myself I'd have to be lucky to survive, and three of me at the same time was impossible for me to beat. Even pulling myself was difficult because of the small size of the map.

My Sg-mate was able to solo me with her troller, but in order for me to beat myeslf, i had to use every trick in the book, including taking myself from behind and using the epic fiery KKnockdown AoE power which i forget the name of now to keep myself down. Once I was on my back I was easy.


Has anyone else had any amusing self-on-self experiences with the MA?

PS Now I also know what my tier 9 nuke feels like! Ow!

Whole thing could be taken so wrong, and you know it

Appart from that, sounds like fun.

Oh, I'll bet you were easy.

I tried running my AR/Storm Corr against himself. It basically came down to who got the most powers off first. Usually me, since I have Hasten and he didn't, so I could play with Ignite Madness and he couldn't.

What i found interesting was that the EB version of myself seemed to display exactly the same tactics that I do when I play! It was really funny. I also am totally weak against Knockdown lol

Interesting, I did something similar where I put in all my alts to fight in one map, but found that the computer AI plays completely different than I do!!

He had a couple tricks I never used, but I had the advantage of 16 trip mines ;P

I've already made several "playing with yourself" jokes to SGmates who have themselves in their mishes.

Yes, I AM that lame and incorrigible, thanks!


Dec out.

Yes. My Project: Perilous arc (see sig) includes Perilous Paula, a spinoff character from my old comic from... 2006 I think was when it stopped. (Also, see sig)

Two things came out of this:
Now I have a particular "voice" for the character that came out of the comic, and I tried to use that to flesh her out as a "sidekick" support role for the player. This means that, yes, she gets humorously snarky. On the fourth map, I kept losing her and I actually got annoyed! Below is the conversation with a friend who teams with the "live" Perilous Paula a lot:

Me: Whoa, Perilous is SNARKY!
Teammate: Yes. Yes she is.
Me: She's getting on my NERVES!
Teammate: You think? It's your fault, I don't know why you're complaining to ME about it!

But the really insulting thing...?

On the last mission, even though she's set to Hard/Standard and doesn't have the full powers range as my character...

... she used her powers better than I did.

I got a comment on my arc about my insane bad-joke-telling clown that the commenter's teammate kept yelling "KILL HIM! MAKE IT STOP!"

Much like people do when I play him.


Dec out.

if you solo yourself too much, you can go blind...
