Revision as of 08:04, 9 May 2013
This article is about the online game Crossfire. For the gay chat app, see xfire.
Crossfire is an online free-to-play massive shooter game made in some Korean homebrew shack made by incapable 16-year-old's for noob 16-year-olds. The framerates are ridiculously low and CS Source and graphics are on par with the latest in computer gaming, Counter-Strike 1.6! Since it is free anyone can play it because half of the world is too poor to actually BUY a decent game. This game over run by Brazilians and Turks that have shitty attitudes, computers, internet connections and hacks.
Noobs Everywhere
In Crossfire, practically all players are either noobs, fair play noobs (so-called forumers), children or girl gamers posting on the forums in all pink, and finally internet retarded Brazilians. There are many reasons for becoming noob in this game. Excerpt of possible reasons for being noob:
- lucker

- bullet-dodger
- backside-killer
- lowpinger
- highpinger
- lagger
- hacker

All of these things can make you NOOB. So .. don't forget to liberally spread these words in spam fashion, especially in the game rooms... Bonus points if it's full of Brazilians.
Fair Play
Playing fair in this shitty game is as rare as someone taking a purple shit that smells like flowers. So this is how you can help to play fair with those shitty laggy ass Brazilians HACK.
Nice Things to Know

- Everyone speaks Brazilian or Turkish.
- All the gun are over priced AS FUCK!
- Every game mode is ass with a capital A
- Graphics are comparable to CounterSrike1.6 on low and medium. Whereas High is more "Condition Zero", that awkward game between CS1.6 and CS:S
- Most players are about 12 to 15 (giggity), but pretend to be much older and have unrealistic background stories relatable to most Anime's

Z8Games
Z8Games bought out the original owners of crossfire at some point in history nobody gives a shit about. Z8Games then decided it was time to introduce an asston of ingame items to improve the performance of the Ghosts in ghost mode, all of which are 1-hit weapons that cost IRL money for those people who cant aim for longer then the first try. Some of these weapons include(in relative order of date added):
- Combat Axe, Combat Axe(holiday here), Combat Axe "Red Dragon"
- Kris, Kris(holiday here)
- Kukri, Kukri(holiday here), Kukri "Red Dragon"
- Katana, Golden Katana
- Field Shovel, Field Shovel(holiday here)
- Machete- though it looks absolutely nothing like what you are thinking of now. It looks more like a makeshift hunk of metal from the bottom of a car with some bandages as a handle painted black and sharpened with a grinder using a cutting disk.
- Brass Knuckles
- Police Baton
- Aluminum Bat
There is also an incomprehensibly huge amount of guns added into the game with a few new ones each update. Each costing IRL money in obscene amounts, especially if you want to gamble to try and win a permanent gun covered in sparkles. Even more recently they added yet more ak47's covered in decals, except these ones would make jews rebel in horror of howmuch money grabbing Z8 is trying to pull. The cheapest version costs around $85-$95 and provides insignificant boosts to ingame money/exp earned for all players. The next version is over $100 and provides slightly better boosts, with a glowing red eye on the decal of the gun. Both of them look exactly the same if not for the red eye on the more expensive version.
Game Modes
Here is the list as follows
Search & destroy
In S&D its all about who has the better campers..... seriously its not fun just imagine only two people from each team moving while everyone else waits behind walls hoping for someone to run by. Sometimes hackers join the game and starts going ape shit since there are only 5 rounds its like an endurance round for anyone with legit programs that actually help you become better by pressing a button to aim.
Team Deathmatch
Also known as spray and pray mode is played by almost everyone in crossfire. To give a vivid picture on this just imagine a WHOLE bunch of Autistic people on 10 pounds of sugar with super soakers running around and aiming at everything expect their targets. So if you don't have a bad case of Parkinson like 95% of crossfire, than this gamemode is right for you.
Ghost Mode
In this mode one side is NOT invisible and has guns while the other side IS invisible and can only use knifes.(sounds fair)
Global risk(team with guns): turn your gamma at 100 to make ghosts easier to see when they move. This will make it fun since GR ALWAYS WINS! No. Ever since people figured out an exploit that kept you invisible whilst still being able to move(Bunny hopping) there is the off chance that the ghosts/BL would win, especially if GR is full of brazilians. Not to mention that as soon as the company that owned Crossfire was bought out by "Z8Games" it turned into a total fuckfest of who could spend the most IRL cash to be good at a free-2-play game.
Ghost Team/Black List: Your out of luck... Unless you spend vast quantities of IRL money on ingame items that last 3 months at most. The ghosts emit a VERY heavy breathing sound, but most didn't realize this when ghost mode was first added, and still fucking dont(though mostly Brazilians). At first GR hid in corners shooting in every possible direction in fear of the enemy that at the time almost nobody knew could move while invisible through physics-engine exploits, unless they crouch-walked at about 1meter every 10 seconds.

The only way to counter this is by having any kind of sound system that gives directional output so you can track the breathing of the enemies from 10-15meters away.

Another side-effect is him leaving the game, joining back in on your team, and then trying to vote-kick you himself of which everyone lulz at his diehard failure.
Zombie Mode
Zombies start out weak as all hell, and rapidly progress into beings that can run faster then you can. They start to take an entire rifle magazine to even hurt, and upwards of 10 shots to the head to kill. Not to mention the terrible AI/Game Engine has them frequently running in random directions and then b-lining it to you.

- 50000 = 1 Bronze
- 100000 = 2 Bronze
- 140000 = 1 Silver
- 250000 = 2 Silver
- 500000 = 1 Gold
- 700000 = 1 Crystal/Red Crystal
- Beating one of the bosses 5 times gets you a boss crate of which contains the Crystal-Crates items, but it has new items that do absolutely nothing except make your character look dumbfuckled and take up space for better items/rewards
- All of these reward crates contain items to both help you next time you play ZM(healing) and give you aesthetic changes or even guns that cost IRL money/cant be obtained elsewhere/gives you shit guns nobody uses.
Brazilians, Brazilians Everywhere...
Most don't speak english, but whoa to person who finds the ever elusive english speaking retard who's angry because you killed him a few times and refuses to accept that you are a better player, or that you have an advantage in gameplay experience/common sense.
The non-english Brazilians are more "Lulz I bet he's mad bro" because nobody but himself and that other guy you killed knows what he is saying.

How to troll ingame
- Ghost Mode
- Get a loudass gun, you can try weapons out on a shooting range before obtaining them for use ingame. Find the loudest gun you can and buy it. Bonus points if its fully automatic/high ammo count/lots a dakka/just buy a fucking machinegun.

This will not only troll the top player into a RAEG mode, but will screw over the other player(s) left in that game because there is only 1-2 people left and nobody can join late in the game.
So-called Elite channels
Echo 8 is a place where faggots who engage in faggotry go due to their xenophobic nature and egotistical fantasies of being "pro" at a poorly managed, aging game with bad graphics and gunfire registry problems (shots do not register damage).
Alpha 7 is a place where faggots who engage in faggotry go due to their tendency to hang out with other chinks who like them; only play S&D Black widow and TDM Ship.
Staff
The Z8games staff consist of the main game moderator called by his forum name '[GM]Saidin' he is a mentally retarded ginger haired 30 something (not round the waist) that does relatively nothing other than make useless events that give away useless stuff for 7 days, posts useless shit in the forum that only the mentally challenged believes and generally makes sure he maintains the status quo that being a very poorly run game.
The forum moderators are chosen by [GM]Saidin, this ginger haired retard picks the best forum trolls and dickryders who defend his company/portal no matter what regardless.
Then these former trolls/dickryders ie moderators who are little more than children find themselves to be in a position of a lot of power (although imaginary) as they can now delete/close threads.
So they do this in a epic fashion and enforce the GM's rules ie no talking about hacking even though the game is infested with southern american/brasilian hackers, no talking about the brasilian hacking population even though these players make up much of the hack population. And locking threads they do not like even though the thread poster broke no rules.
