What, exactly, is an elitist...in the CF world? I have a good idea... someone who knows all the areas well (especially the high level areas Hell, etc.), knows the game mechanics (ie knows the makeup of the code and knows the little things to get in that certain strike or escape at the last possible moment), and knows all the vulns, loop-holes, secret locations, best race-class combos. If I'm off please correct me. If the only way to achieve Elitedom is through experience then I'm on the right track. I've been playing since '94 with a 15 month break in between. How good should I be at this point? I've had one Hero. Played maybe half of all the races and/or classes. I've just begun exploring new areas. I don't know anyone personally who plays (although someone says they know me *shrug*) Any feedback is welcome.
