  • I was scrimming rtcw while drinking. I got on xfire to talk some trash and laura (y3k0m5) messaged me about a new game. I installed it ranked up an account to the AK. Ended up selling my guns to buy a shotgun and p90. Later realized I had no money and made a new account. I met up with some people I knew from CSS and played with them. We played practically 4v5 since one of them was someones girlfriend and absolute terrible at video games. Eventually a decent team picked me up and that's that.
  • During the summer of 2009 my brother and I were playing battlefield heroes (beta). One day the servers randomly decided not to work so we were obviously bored. I was occupying myself while my bro was on the forums for bf:H and saw a post that linked to crossfire. He checked it out, downloaded it, played it and got me into it.
  • somebody mentioned the game while i was playing combat arms, got picked up by the first competitive team (Marvel) i can remember. The only map we could scrim back then was crossroads. Marvel cut me because they thought I cheated and deception was where it all started ^.^

    Deception. Omfg.

    I still remember being on mumble the day of my flight to Poland in June/July. Good times.

    And then I remember getting on CF like 2-3 times during my vacation and playing with like 300 ping with our leader sabianz, h3rf, visc, you, xshade, and al. That was when Desert Storm came out. :D
  • The day the game came out I saw an add for it on youtube and decided to play it.

    Hahaha yes, can't forget Crav3n and the almighty CokeZeroooo (what a laggah man). Probably would be the best team in cf if it stayed together, definitely the most memorable team for sure xD.

    btw i hope your gf leaves you alone while you play cf now, she always distracted us in scrims with the random sex noises we heard in the background

    I mean, everyone did , **** was played in clan server. :P #donthate
  • well for a long time I hated pvp games ( Mainly played novalogic games ) At the time was Delta Force Xtreme that came out in 2005, was playing that with my clan from their known as B.O.V, of course when they started playing this game, I came a long with them, where I made 2 accounts ( Exterminator and Exquisite* ) of course everyone knows which one I stuck with, but for a while BOV played both games and I was more into DFX at the time, but they all quit to play Battlefield 2 and I didn't have it at the time, so I met up with some people from inhuman and started to really get into this game, been playing it ever since, I even got alot of my family members to play this game, including my mom, dad, sisters, brother, cousins, and even my fiance :P

    Of course, I don't play this game much anymore, i mainly play CS:GO. so uh yeah, been a hellofa 4-5 years doe.

  • I first heard about CF when I moved to Brazil. I was going to school over there(so fkin difficult). So one day, I overheard my classmates' Conversation, talking about the every 2-week LAN tourneys here they do for CSS & CF. I was really interested because I played competively for source and 1.6 for 2 years when CAL was alive lol!

    I decided to hop into the Convo and asked how can I join this tourney. They looked at me funny, just because I was from U.S. They asked "are you good?". Told them I played competively for CSS. All of them freaked out, they told me, "then you will be good for CF! I'll sign you in as one of our roster". I wanted to join the tourney for Source but, w.e fk it lol

    The LAN that hosted the tourneys, was walking distance from my house so it was chilling. Got there and holy fk....IT WAS PACKED AS SH#T! Luckily bumped into one of my class/team mates. He was telling me we are starting in 5 mins. Followed him to the computers and damn they looked pretty bad ass.

    Got on the chair, my mouse felt sh#tty and cheap, mouse pad so damn small, but fk it...its Brazil, what do you expect? So my friend logged on with his alt CF account onto my computer for me to play with. Used the M4. First map was Black widow..I didn't know the map at all, but it was very similar to de_dust 2.

    We all got ready and started and all my friends could tell me, " Shoot head americano". I laughed and then I thumbs up. During the match, I had to defend A and w.e....I tabbed and my ping was "160".. I was like wtffff. But, w.e!

    I was actually top fraggin and felt so good, people watching you and sh#t. It was my first LAN I've ever done and it was a fun experience. Long story short, my team lost the first game, and eventually kept playing with them and getting better at every tourney...till I moved back to Florida :P
  • The only remaining players from Sanitarium 2009 my first clan: Slaya, Zzxq, Polarpop

    I remember clan warring vs teams like Synical, OES, ROC, Team Fuzz, Fear, [RUS]People, Sorry, Trio, Lifeline, momentum, and tricksters

    Played in Sanitarium for about 2 years, and then went through a few other pub teams before going competitive.
  • My Story
    I was in 5th grade and in class when my friend told me about "a game where you kill people and stuff."

    At that time, I thought it was a stupid idea to act out killing other human beings in an online game. Then I tried it out, and found it very frustrating but motivational to become better. After a couple of years of playing on my parent's computer, I saved up to buy myself my own computer, then immediately downloaded CrossFire on it.

    After playing for a while, I found that I actually made some friends in-game. Together, we made a clan called "[XLR]Black" and each had our own name along w/ the tag. I was known as [XLR]Demon. I was horrible and used many ZP weapons. I remember my specific load-out being the Kriss Super V, D.E Camo, and the Spop (With Armor). Even w/ all of that, I'd still go 1.0 if not negative in TDMs and such. Then I got banned because of charge-back! I was devastated cried a river.

    When I got over my lost account, I decided to face CrossFire again and I made a new account. I named it something stupid, then eventually changed it to "Gu" when you could still change your name to something under 3 characters long. I got better, joined a team called Optimum, and eventually other teams as well. I competed in some tournaments but I never was really that good to the point where I could win a tournament! Today, I'm just me... sitting at my computer still occasionally getting on CF and the rest of the time on CSGO, League of Legends, spending time with family/girlfriend, and more.

    You guys probably don't care, and I don't even know why I wrote this I was kinda bored and I just got a new mechanical keyboard so I felt like typing something! :)
  • Saw this kid playing it in business class, then he told me to try it out. Played for a day and was like what is this crappy game. Then he's like give it a chance dudeeeeeee, played a few more games and somehow yehhhhhhhhh
