Coming back to the game again...

How hard was it for any of you, who actually left the game for a while, found it hard to come back? Personally, it's been almost 2 years since I pplayed HMW on a steady basis. I don't remember what I was building my bots up to, and looking at the last few missions I've done, I'm starting to get pissed, because I know that I shouldn't be losing that much, or, more to the point, I know that I could have had my bots in a better place if I had been able to stay with the game...
So my question to everyone is... Do you all get those same feelings, or am I just SOL?

I was only gone for a few months, but yeah, I get that feeling a lot. Keep at it though, it gets better.

Are you having a stroke or just drunk?

Welcome back to the war Stryfe.
Don't get too worked up about it. As long as you are giving your units decent builds and remember that all missions are ultimately decided by the random numbers deity. You should be fine.
Losses happen, wins happen, but none of it matters if you aren't playing. Just keep plugging away at it.

He is so drunk that the alcohol has caused him to have a stroke

There once was a man named Cass,
whose balls were made of brass.
In stormy weather
He'd bang them together
And lightning shot out of his ass.
(I speak fluent drunkenese.)

You are an evil, evil man Burn. Funny, dedicated, and a pleasure to have around, but evil none the less. [/asskissing]

Okay, so, I like the little poem and all, now that I know what the hell it says, but I don't get what it has to do with my return to the game... I'm not sure whether I should take that as an insult or not... lol

Sorry I think there was something relevant in the begining of the post too your return. What it was I can't remeber. So welcome back man just in time to join the line of players waiting to kick N_V in the nuts.

I know you're not much of a conversationalist steve, but it really is good to see a post like this from you.
Now ditch that PS2 and talk to us some more!

They hate you too. And they will eat your unhappiness. Just like chiropractors
Red vs Blue reference, to anyone who cares lol

Caboose compared something Church said to chiropractors in season 4 or 5. I think it had something to do with getting cheated and swindled.
Which, oddly enough, is kind of what the Unknowns do

Good to have another 'Bot fighting out there. You'll see me more in missions when I decide to get some of my 'Bots up to level 1. But when I do you will see me a lot

Of your 'Cons? No. Just haven't done much with them lately. They will be level 1 by weeks end (or some of them at any rate).
