WarRock News: Fake Girls Do Exist

Lately, I have noticed an increasing amount of "girls" playing WarRock. But as I looked into it, it turned from "girls playing WarRock." to "Men faking to be girls playing WarRock."

I mean, there are some girls who play WarRock, don't get me wrong. But there is also, a now increasing amount of men faking to be girls (fake girls) playing WarRock.

So for example: You like some person who claims to be a girl. And her user name is "jessica2" First of all, the type of girls that play these games, are not necessarily the most girly people around. Therefore, they usually don't name themselves something that at first glance shows they're a female. Second, if they start going off about how "hot" they are. That is also usually a sign of a fake girl. Because most women who play games are usually not very attractive.
Also, if they send you a picture of them self. And it looks like a picture of a model, porn star or just some girl (that is attractive) I would be very suspicious. Because they could of just stole them from some one's Myspace album, or Googled them. Therefore, I would also say that is a sign of a fake girl.
And finally, a good way to test is. Just say "men fake to be women" or "i hate men who fake to be women" If they say nothing, that is a good sign. If they get all defensive and say, "But I'm a real girl...." or "I'm not a fake girl!" That is a bad sign, which indicates they are probably a guy.
Or if they just agree with you by saying, "Yea I hate fake girls too". It's neutral, could be real or could be fake.

Final conclusion: Before you start liking or flirting with someone be sure that they are really a girl and not a guy. By at least going on webcam or talking on the phone, vent, teamspeak, xfire or some other means of voice chat.

Keep your sexuality straight, and don't flirt with men online.

Tips and Tricks: How to report a hacker

I have noticed, that recently there have been alot and I mean alot, of glitchers and especially hackers around. So, here is a step by step on how to report a hacker or glitcher.

Step 1. Go to http://www.warrock.net/

Step 2. Log into your account.

Step 3. Once logged in, click [Support]. It should be on the left side.

Step 4. Click on [Submit a Ticket] which will be below the [Support] Icon.

Step 5. Click [Submit a Ticket].

Step 6. And again click [Submit a Ticket]

Step 7. Fill in the form.

Step 8. Click Finish, or preview if you'd like to double check your work.

Step 9. Write down your Ticket number if you'd like to track what happens.

You should recieve an email from WarRock support, and if they need more infomation they may ask you some questions. (They typically don't ask for more info)

Tips

• When you type out your "Description" try to keep it short and to the point. Avoid ranting about the person you are reporting.
• WarRock tend not to ban people unless they have solid evidence that the person really did hack or glitch. Therefore, attaching a screenshot of the glitcher or hacker using the glitch or hack is very important.

K2-Nemico is a CQC hater?

A few days ago during the WR Olympics... , I witnessed some CQC clan bashing which is very common. But the difference this time was, it was K2-Nemico that was doing it in his announcement.. If it was serious or joking, I do not know, but here's what he said..

Items that when used reward you with assists

Assists give you points, and more the points you have, the more dinar and experience you gain.

30 assist is the max amount of points you can get from one type of assist. For example I can only get 30 assists off of Flash Mines. If I want more assists I'll need to use a different item.

Here listed below is; what gives you assists.

All assist items that give you 2 assist points per use.
Ammo Boxes
Medic Boxes
Medic Kit 1
Medic Kit 2

Assist items that give you 10 assist points per use.
Flash Mines
M14 Mines

By the way, it is rumored that disarming bombs give you 10-100 extra points. I haven't checked it myself yet, but I will soon.

Go get those assists!

Random and Useless Info: A way to make rolling more fun!

Yo sup all! useless

You know the traditional way of rolling? You simultaneously press:
[whatever direction you want to roll]l + [Shift].

Well, I found another way to roll. That gives you the exact same result, same energy cost etc.. But it looks cooler. So instead of simultaneously pressing;
[whatever direction you want to roll] + [Shift].

You simultaneously press; [whatever direction you want to roll] + [Shift] + [Spacebar].

Example below:
For example I want to roll backwards, so I simultaneously press [S]+[Shift]+[Spacebar].
Which results in a cool/different roll.
(By the way, my favorite direction to roll in with this trick is Backwards ( S+Shift+Spacebar). Because it causes your soldier to look like he's/she's holding an invisible gun.)

Good luck rolling, and tell me how you like it!

How to play with graphic lag

Graphic lag extremly slows down your gun's rate of fire. Here below, I will show you how to still be an effective and deadly player, with graphic lag.

Best class for graphic lag: sniper is probably the class for you. You need guns that deal high damage per shot, rather than guns that spray vollys of bullets and deal less damage per shot. Because graphic lag will cause the volly of bullets, to turn into 2-3 bullets. Therefore, you will only inflict 2-6 bars of damage. Also, snipers are one of 2 classes that have granades, which are great for graphic laggers. Because they are also 1 nade 1 kill. And with graphic lag you can sometimes get a double nade throw.

Good weapons for graphic laggers:
m60 is probably the best automatic weapon for graphic lag. Deals a high amount of damage per shot and very accurate, exactly what you need in a gun when you have graphic lag.

PSG or AWM is perfect. As I said earlier, sniper rifles are perfect for graphic laggers, deal extremely high damage and very accurate. These should be your primary weapons.

Deagle is the best sidearm for graphic laggers. Because the Deagle is the highest damage dealing sidearm.

Shotty is very good for graphic laggers, 1 shot 1 kill up close.

ak47 great for low levels, because it deals high damage.

RPG is perfect for graphic laggers, 1 shot 1 kill.

Nades are perfect for graphic laggers, 1 nade 1 kill. And with graphic lag you can sometimes get a double throw.

Maps

Velruf: Is probabably the best map for graphic laggers, especially with 8 player max, but doesn't lag too bad with 16 player max either.

Kahli: Very low lag with a 8 player max, but with 16 player max it lags bad.


Generals rules to play by with graphic lag

Try to avoid automatic weapons, and go with slow firing but high damage weapons. Because the graphic lag will cause the auto weapon to be slow firing anyway.

Play in rooms with 8 max players if possible, it will greatly reduce your lag.

Turn down your graphic quality. Your computer's and WarRock's. This also will greatly reduce your lag.

Attention PSG users

To all you PSG users, prepare for the PSG to get it's bug fixed up soon. GMs have said it will be fixed soon.
So my advice to you is, to buy the AWM and practice with it. Otherwise, after the PSG bug gets fixed, you'll be crying yourself to sleep because the PSG will be worse than the SSG. The PSG will be pitiful, and you will be forced to either; play as pitiful as the PSG, or learn the AWM. I say learn the AWM.

WarRock injustice... by toofoxy

Hey all it's toofoxy today, it's usually Joshwhat that writes the blog entries here but, I have something pressing on my mind. Therefore, I'm the one blogging today. This is my first blog entry so please bere with me.

Today I'm going to about how disappointed I am in the WarRock staff/admins.

Yesterday one our Teh Geekopedia - WarRock Blog readers, had his high level account with retail premium banned for an unknown reason or supposedly "copying some one's name". I never knew using a similar user name as someone else was violating WarRock rules... I mean you see it all the time, for example..
Person #1 uses the user name : "fighter"
Person #2 uses the user name : "fighter7"
I know that WarRock reserves the right to ban anyone at anytime for any reason. But I really don't think this is needed or reasonable. He didn't do anything against WarRock, in fact, he was hyper cautious to never break the rules. He never; glitched, hacked, harassed or flamed etc.. He also bought retail premium for his account which profits WarRock. And after all that, WarRock bans him. Yes you heard it, they ban him!!! This is flat out injustice.
Here is another reason why this is so wrong: WarRock doesn't ban or consistently ban the glitchers, hackers, harassers and flamers. And when they actually do ban, it's a long dragged out process which usually requires a screenie, multiple reports or whatever. This just isn't fair, considerate or right.

My request to WarRock is; to get some responsible admins that won't, ban the good inocent people on the fly while not banning the actual guilty people who glitch, hack, harass and flame.

WarRock please get some consistency, fairness and justice.

Signed,

Tips and Tricks: How to retrieve your WarRock screenies

Here is the step by step on how to retrieve your WarRock screenies.



Step 1. press the [PrntScn SysRq] key, should be near the top right of your keyboard .. That key takes the screenshot. It's your screenie camera.



Step 2. After taking the screenshots you want to take. Go to [My Computer].



Step 3. Click on the [Search] icon, it should be near the top of your screen, near your standard icons.



Step 4. After clicking on the [Search] icon, a sidebar to your left should appear. (sometimes with a avatar) Click the [All files and folders]. Which is on your search sidebar.



Step 5. Now with the [All files and folders] sidebar pulled up. Set your [look in] box to [My Computer]. And type "warrock" in the [All or part of a file name] box.

Trouble Shooting.

Usually There are 2 WarRock folders, so if none, or not all of your screenies are in one of them, give your computer some time to find both folders. Then check out the 2nd [WarRock] folder. And it should be in there.

"I'm the unprofessional professional "

Which stores carry which retail.

Target: AWM Sniper Rifle

Best Buy: m60 machine gun

Future Shop: m249

GameStop: Mini Gun

Walmart: g36c_D

Famas retails are super super super rare to find, no particular store carries it. (It has been said that only 6 Famas retails were made.)

Warrock News: The clan Viet cong [VC] is closing down

It has been said by Vietcong07 that clan VC will be closing down soon. Due to
"no money to pay [for clan rent]."

If you haven't heard of them.. VC is a big clan, with some good players. Well known with mainly Velruf players because they mainly play Velruf.

Fun fact, Homie and I were in clan VC for a time.

l8a1 v.s. Barret

The l8a1: a very nice assault rifle. Dealing a good amount of damage. Very accurate, but when in scope mode, the l8a1's recoil is increased by a considerable amount.

The Barret: This sniper rifle is very strong, it can kill tanks, helicopters, planes, humvees etc... with ease. But, it's not very good against enemy foot soldiers, due to it's super high recoil, inaccuracy and the fact that it can only be used while in prone position.


For (Close quarter combat) CQC l8a1 for sure. No debate, it is one of the best of assault rifles out there for CQC. While the Barret is one of the worst sniper rifles for CQC. Due to the Barret's recoil, inaccuracy, and the fact that it can only be used while in prone position.

For (Urban Ops) UO this one depends. The l8a1 for maps like; Nerbil or Alberton, that have no vehicles, but for maps with vehicles, I would say the Barret is the winner.

For (Battle groups) BG I would say Barret, very good for taking down enemy helicopters, killing enemy tanks, destroying moving humvees and annihilating enemy jets that are taking off.


Summary: In the end, it really comes down to what type of game play you play. But for me personally, I would say the l8a1 is the winner.

Busy day

Errrg! Sorry ppl no time to write on a weapon or WR today :(
We'll be back with vengeance tomorrow! lol

Drum Gun: g36c_D

3rd/5th slot: G36c_D lvl 11+ - Engineer, Medic, Assualt

The G36c_D is basically a G36c with 10% less recoil and a drum that can carry 100 bullets. Although I would consider this gun a step down from the m60 and m249 drum guns. You can get the g36c_D 5 levels earlier, and it can still hold it's own against both the m60 and m249. Plus, engineer, medic and assualt can all use the g36c_D, making it a good dinar saver.

Stats

G36c_D Engineer, Medic, Assualt, lvl 11+ 3rd slot/5th slot.

Cost: 22,000 dinar 30 days

Submachine Gun: mp7a1

5th Slot: mp7a1 - Engineer, Medic lvl 21+
(Teh Geekopedia's choice for best Engineer/Medic submachine gun)

Behold the mp7a1. The mp7a1, is the best medic/engineer gun, and maybe even, best gun in game. The mp7a1 is the rival famas and here is why. They both shoot at 90% speed and are both 40% accurate. But here is where they differ. The mp7a1, has remarkably less recoil than the famas, and has 40 shots per magazine, versus the famas’ 25. The only area where the famas actually has better stats is in the damage department. Where the famas deals slightly more damage.

Final conclusion, to me personally mp7a1 is far superior to the famas. Why? Because in my mind, I’m willing to sacrifice some damage, for the extra ammo, less recoil, and the ability to heal or plant land mines. (Since it’s a medic/engineer gun)

Stats

mp7a1- engineer/medic lvl 21+ 5th slot
Cost: 33,300 dinar 30 days, 16,500 dinar 15 days, 8,250 dinar 7 days, 4,200 3 days.
Damage: 43%

Map Velruf: The ledge

The ledge is a great spot for killing enemies that are trying to run out of tunnel. It is a great spot to set an ambush on enemies passing by on Derbaran Snipe area. (Beware of enemy on NIU sniper tower, and street.)

Instructions on how to get on the ledge below.

Step 1: Get on the little wall on the Derbaran Sniper Tower, near the tunnel.

Step 2: Aim your body toward ledge, and roll foward towards ledge.

Step 3: Camp out on the ledge.

Assault Rifle: L8a1

3rd/5th slot L85a1 _lvl 26+_ Assault

(One of the newest Warrock guns)
When I got the opportunity to test the L85a1 for myself, I was excited. But when I actually got to testing it, I was slightly disappointed.

Many people say, “the L8a1 is very similar to the G36.” But they are really, two different guns, specializing in different things.

Although, the L8a1 might slightly have look of the G36, because of it’s scope. The L8a1 and the G36 are very different, these are the areas they differ:

The L8a1 deals more damage than the G36, but shoots slower than the G36. Therefore, making the G36 more suitable for close combat. (To me personally)

The L8a1 is also more accurate than the G36. But, if you use the L8a1’s scope, the recoil is so drastically increased, that it becomes very inaccurate, making the G36 more accurate at medium to long range/while using the scope mode. But making the L8a1 more suitable for medium range combat.

My final conclusion, the L8a1 did not live up to the hype, for me personally. The programmers of Warrock should of not given the L8a1 huge recoil while in scope mode. Also, I don’t think it’s level requirement should be lvl 26+.

To note: You cannot buy the L8a1 at the item shop. The only way you can optain the L8a1 is by: Buying: Premium or a dinar package, and when you buy it you will get a code. If you're lucky, that code will unlock the L8a1 for 7days or even 30 days. (If you bought retail, you will also recieve a code which could unlock the L8a1.) Visit the offical WarRock website, http://www.warrock.net/ for details.

Stats
L8a1 Assault, lvl 26+ 3rd/5th slot
Cost: Unknown
Damage: 50%
Speed: 60%
Accuracy: 46%
Recoil: 57%

Special feature: Scope

Sidearm: MP5K

2nd slot: MP5K 5/5 stars
(Teh Geekopedia's choice for best sidearm)
Although, the mp5k deals medium to low damage, it is the fastest firing sidearm in game. Which makes it perfect for spraying down low or even full health enemies.
If you're pro enough, you should be able to pwn almost any enemy with the mp5k. Although it may be harder pwning with the mp5k, it is still very possible.
(Warning! If you have graphic lag, do NOT buy this weapon)

Stats
MP5K All classes, All levels 2nd slot.

Amo: 20/5
Damage: 29%

Accuracy: 30%
Recoil: 51%
Fun fact: The mp5k is shorter ranged and less ammunition version of the mp5.

Assault Rifle: Ak-47

3rd/5th slot Ak-47 - Assault 3/5 stars
The ak-47 is fast firing and high damage, but has huge recoil and is very inaccurate making it a "spray and pray" type gun. Spray and pray type guns, can be good up close, but if you got skill a more accurate gun is ALOT better. In the end, it comes down to preference of, if you like spray type guns or not. For me personally, I don't like the spray and pray type guns. Therefore I prefer a more accurate gun, like the M4a1.

Stats

Ak-47 Assault, 3rd/5th slot
Cost: 16,000 dinar 30 days, 4,900 dinar 7 days.
Amo: 35/5
Damage: 50%
Speed: 60%
Accuracy: 25%
Recoil: 88%

Assault Rifle: G36

3rd/5th slot: G36 lvl 11+ - Assault 5/5 stars
(Teh Geekopedia's choice for best valued assault weapon)

In my mind, the G36 is the best; valued, versitile, and all around assault weapon in Warrock. Best at medium to long range, but is also "uber awesome" upclose. The G36 is basicly the best of the m4a1 and the ak-47 put together, plus a scope, which is uber cool. Some even think, the G36 is better than Famas.

(The G36 can lag more than others if you have graphic lag/less than decent computer.)

Stats

G36 assault, lvl 11+ 3rd or 5th slot.

Cost: 1300 dinar 30 days

Amo: 30/5

Damage: 40%

Speed: 70%

Accuracy: 40%

Recoil: 67%

Special feature: Scope

Sidearm: Glock

2nd slot: Glock 2/5 stars

I don't know what Warrock was thinking when they made the Glock. I mean, it is basically a downgraded mp5k. The only way this Glock is actually sort of effective is by using it in full automatic mode. But when it is in full auto, the recoil is huge and almost uncontrollable! I will not and never will suggest buying the Glock, buy an mp5k instead. (If you still want to use a Glock, a good tip is to aim at your target's feet, and let the recoil take the rest of the magazine up the body and to your target's head.)

Stats

Glock All classes, All levels 2nd slot.

Cost: 11,000 dinar 30 days, 3,500 dinar 7 days.

Amo: 17/5

Damage: 28%

Speed: 30%

Accuracy: 20%

Recoil: 55%

Special features: Hold right and left click down, to activate full automatic mode. (When in this mode the speed is faster than 30% and the recoil is more than 55%.)

Do you have anything you think we should add about this weapon? If so, please notify us when you comment.

Sidearm: Deagle

2nd slot: Deagle 4/5 stars

The highest damage dealing sidearm in game. For me this gun wasn't good for finishing off enemies, because; there aren't enough shots in a clip and too slow firing. But if you are a good shot, this may be the gun for you.

Also the Deagle is the second to cheapest gun in Warrock making it a good very good sidearm for those on a tight budgget.

(If you have graphic lag, this is the best sidearm for you.)

Stats

Deagle All classes, All levels, 2nd slot

Cost: 6,000 30 days 2,000 7 days Amo: 7/5
