Re: Botched callouts

One of my playing buds is hearing impaired just a bit. IIRC at the time he was using his TV sound instead of a headset, which sure didn't help. We were going north from Cascade, I went up a zip and found a full team at the top waiting. I dropped right quick and told him "DON'T go up the zip, there's a full team there!!" So he immediately takes the zip and throws the game for us.

@pandareno1999 Ohhh, those ones suck! I've had a couple similar instances, where the first, CRUCIAL, word of a callout is not heard/picked up by the mic, Lmao!

Not exactly on your topic, but close, and a funny story I like to retell.

I was playing with randoms on WE, no mic. I was knocked at the bottom of one of the elevator shafts in construction. My team mate came up to me and I made an enemy ping at the top story. He threw a frag grenade up to the top and immediately took the zipliine. I think you can guess the result.

@pandareno1999 Now THAT'S hilarious!!

@RaisinFlakes Most definitely! They knew exactly what I meant, and it gave us all a good laugh XD

@hayhor I'm terrible about that, especially with irons or a 1x sight. I have a hard time telling Legends apart, from a distance. "Cracked Blood... Oct... Re... cracked SOMEONE over there!!"

@MyName1sNotJohn That's golden!! Permission to steal this?

@reconzero. Yea, that's why I'm always in party chat, Lmao! I don't say anything racist or anything like that, but I swear like a sailor when I'm gaming, and I don't want to get banned for dropping f-bombs, so I just avoid open comms
