I played a few rounds with Jimbo this evening and whilst i was playing, the thought kept passing through my head, "i wonder if what im doing is difficult for him to copy?". I would turn round and he would be right there behind me blasting off rockets and hurdling over boxes... no idea how you manage to do what you do so seamlessly. Awesome!
Adaptability in the modern age will never cease to amaze me.
Just last week i was helping to bring hay bales in from a field with a farmer who suffered a brain aneurysm a few years ago, causing him to have little control over the whole right hand side of his body, limbs included. How the guy managed to drive a tractor, operate the loader on the front, and then throw bales farther than me, i shall never quite understand. He runs his farm all year round too!
James, and everyone else who has overcome problems and manages to enjoy life and 'get on with it', I salute you!
I think I read about the guy somewhere (possibly here). I've not tried the original Dead Space (only Dead Space 3), but I've remapped keys in some other games using Autohotkey.Quote:

Cheers for gaming last night Biscuit, it was quite a laugh. Although I seemed to do more dying than inflicting damage on the other team! I think you revived me a few times though...always handy to have a medic around!Quote:

In fairness, i think we were up against a pretty experienced opposition, we all got pretty heavily slaughtered on our side :(Quote:

I guess it would be pretty tricky for you to join in on Teamspeak, but perhaps if we got people on there you could at least listen?
Yeah it was a bit one-sided last night. It is always better when people truly work as a team, rather than just going after frags.Quote:

Secondly, I do have a headset I can use, but because I'm moving my head around whilst playing the game, it tends to work itself loose quite often! I could definitely listen in on Teamspeak, though.
Biscuit / Jim I've got a couple of days left of my holiday what are you doing tomorrow ?
Depends on if my GF is working or not... been a good few days since i last saw her so she might be over here. If not... ill be on BF :)
I'll see if I can find Darkspatter...
I can play BF4 if you're around tomorrow? Feel free to add me on Origin :)Quote:

It reminds me of a member of a karate class I attend. He lost both of his legs through diabetes IIRC, so our instructor comes up with modified katas/techniques, including things like involving the wheelchair as a defensive/offensive tool, and being able to self-right etc while taking into account his different centre-of-mass for instance.

I'm on BF4 most nights lately so I'm up for this :)
What's your name in Origin ?
