    I liked it. I need to learn how to do those rewind shots like that. Thanks for the strategy. I never thought of it cuz I rarely unlock the MMB. But next time I play NS I'm gonna try it.

            Great vid! Nice to see I actually have a way of taking out the Goliath pretty quickly. :yay: Instead of just running behind cover and waiting for the rumbling of it passing to subside, when I'm usually killed with the familiar "Fffmp fffmp fffmp fffmp...." of its front guns. :hmm:

            What I'd like to see or know, is in those shots where you killed it with one Rorsch hit, what your team had to do to get it to that state that one hit would kill it. Was it all Rorsch? Or was it a combined effort? Etc....

            Good job though.

            PS...That shot of the Goliath driving of the edge and tumbling down the mountain....staged? Or was that really in game?

              The Rorsch Scenes eh? If the Goliath is far enough away (or turned an angle so the front guns can't get you) you can kill it with a Rorsch alone. If its a bit closer, its about getting it weakened then hammering it to death. An EXCELLENT combo to kill a full health goliath fast is EMP+Orbital+1 Pilum Shot+Rorsch shot. While that sounds a bit situational, with the amount of Rorschs there are on NS maps, its not too hard. To answer your question though, 1/2 of the Rorsch kills were me solo, the other half were a team effort.

              And yes, the Goliath down the hill was staged While I have seen morons do it in game before (my clan mates :|:), I would never ruin a round like that. One day on the L13 NS Server our commander was doing something... Don't remember what. Anyway, my clan mates drove the thing down the hill and parked it in our main, right in front of our commander... While I didn't think it was very funny, we then had an intense EU VS PAC infantry battle which was a ton of fun

                OK...good to know. Good tips there. I'll have to try them. (Though it might kill my K/D stat. But really don't care.)

                This just makes me remember when NS first came out. The Goliath was such a monster. Now, I feel safer in a tank than a Goliath.

                  Tis true. Only reason why I've been riding in it is to get that stupid ribbon for another unlock.:hmm:

                    Amen to that, amazing how many Engineers pop up after they make the announcement of the Goliath :)

                    Kudos to the video, :salute: very nicely put together imho. Did it take you a while to learn how to execute the mmb trick. I tried a few times yesterday but got tired of dying in the process.

                      I learned how to do it within the first week of NS coming out

                      EDIT: 1000th post, woohoo!

                        Man, being able to do that makes me want NS...

                        Almost enough to buy it. But not quite. I do want to drive a Goliath, though. Looks like fun to be able to tear walkers up.

                          unfortunately, if the walker has a good driver, its the other way around.....

                            Nice work, Fing. Awesome job with that video.

                            Webs, Northern Strike is totally worth it. Some great infantry/armor maps that don't lean too heavy either way. The only down side, there's just not very many Northern Strike servers available. NfB and Fullcontact are the only two I have a good ping with in the western US. Full contacts not always on, I'm not sure why that is, it was usually been packed when they were regularly on-line.

                              Sovereign Forces (=SF=) for NS is also good. its a 64 player server, and almost always on.
                              i have been plying on it a lot lately.

                                Yep, several of the clips from this video were from SF. The first few were all from FCW, but I haven't seen that server up in a while... Lately when I want to play NS, I play on SF, CT or FLOTS. FLOTS not so much though, they run NS Titan :shakehead Nothing EXTREMELY wrong with NS Titan, the rounds just take sooooo loooonnnggg...
