Scrim help?

tonyman111

Okay, I have been playing Crossfire for a long time now and I never really bother to play or learn about scrims. So could someone tell my everything about scrims like how you get into one, how to make one, what is a ringer and other important things I need to know before I start playing scrims. Thanks guys

1 scrim is echo8 usually 5vs5 and play against ego big headed players who think their good but only are decent players
2 clan war is 3 minum and can be played in clan server
3 competive side of this game sucks but its up to you if you wanna try it
4 teamwork and communication makes good clans
5 ringers are teams that dont got 5 on and want sum help playing in echo8

In a scrim u will mainly see ak/awm/m4/deagle. No one really cares about melees. Use GP chars, too.

From what i understand...

1. Scrims ( 5 v 5 teams ) - who call "5" in the lobby til someone says " Make " you then make a passworded room and invite the player who said " MAKE " you then tell him the password and he invites all his team while you invite yours.
Settings: Map? ( Your Choice ) ( 7 or 9 rounds MAINLY 7 ) and POV is 1st Person ( ALWAYS)

2. Ringers ( A person from another team ) - Ringers are players who are sitting in the lobby wanting to scrim.. If you only have 4 players on and a Ringer asks, you can invite him to your game and he plays for your team.

3. Communication ( This is key to all scrims ) - Make sure you have communications like Ventrilo, Mumble, TS3 Etc... So you can Call out what's going on ( ie. Flashes, nades, shots fired, spotted enemies ) No Communication = No Win.

4. Guns and Characters ( NO ZP WEAPONS or ZP Characters ) - Use Normal Weapons like M4, AK , Tar , QBZ , SG552 , AUG , Desert Eagle, Anaconda , Colt and use normal Characters: Swat , OMOH, SAS.

Hope this helps a lil bit.. This is my understanding of e8 Scrims anyways..

you should try to pug so you get a general idea how a scrim should go.

pug is a pick up game usually hosted by a gaming organization, basically you log on into a ventrilo or any other voice chat provider with a number of players, captains are than picked by the gaming organization STAFF, and the captains pick 4 more players to be on their team, than the teams face each other until all teams are eliminated and only one is remaining.

the pugs usually require the same rules that are used by most people in echo 8, gp weapons consisting of ak/aug/awm/m4/sg552/deagles/anaconda etc, no armor only gp characters

it is also a good idea to stock up on nade slots and defuse kit.

Echo channel 8 , UK3 Channel 8 people always Scrim there, a ringer is the person that leads the team and tell them what to do, just like a leader if you got 5 mates that want to scrim try to go one of those server
