actually no, i just had exceptional spacial awareness, a gymnast's intuition, and manymany years of game playing experience.
(and yes, i agree, as you play more and more multiplayer you get increasingly better and better. but what can i say, i started out pretty kickass in descent .)
i admit, i had to learn a lot of new things for descent multiplayer. but it's the same with lander.
first comes learning to pilot, then comes learning to play good multiplayer (and you become get a better pilot from that too of course).
i still suck pretty bad in lander multiplayer*, i'm just getting into it (as i track down more ppl who play the game, a task in itself). someone who is used to playing descent would watch me playing multiplayer and be all "wtf you suck mang!". but let them try it out , they will be killing themselves over and over again as they smash hard into walls in a panic and wouldn't have a hope of ever scoring one kill.
it looks easier than it is. you'll instantly realise that once you try the game 1ACE1. try the demo, i bet you can't even complete it.
*but everyone sucks . as we play more and more i hope we'll be able to pull off some pretty amazing stuff. too bad there's only 2 maps, i'd like to change that.
