I Am Awesome at Battlefield 1943!

Posted by Brian On April - 8 - 2010

It is beautiful

No, no, no, this is not an opinion. This is not a matter for debate. This is the cold hard truth.

But since I’m being honest, here are a few more truths. When it comes to first person shooters in general, I am average. On a good day I can maybe reach the top four in any given round. I’m good, just nothing spectacular. So I stake my awesomeness in Battlefield 1943 not out of pride, but just because it’s true. How did I come to such a conclusion? Simple.

The other night while playing, I scored a total of 1,040 points in a single round!

As you can see, I had 27 kills, each worth 10 points for a total of 270 points. Add in another 130 points for extra points garnered from killing tanks, vehicles, planes, or turrets for a grand total of 400 points contributed from kills. That leaves 640 points in captures, squad assists, and other various tasks which bring us to 1,040 points.

The real question: Why am I so awesome? Ummmmmm, I really don’t know. I don’t play the game radically different from any other FPS. I capture bases and kill enemies. Simple as that. Maybe it’s the combination of skill, class balance, teamwork, capturing bases, and the enemies lighting up as red triangles every time they fire giving me a clear direction in which to shoot. Whatever it is, somehow my gaming brain is in perfect sync.

Now if only I could parlay my awesome Battlefield 1943 skills into something cool like alligator wrestling or knife throwing. :(

BTW: I’m also awesome at Boom Boom Rocket. That makes me awesome at a total of two games. Not bad for 27 years of hard work.
