Now you see why I avoid the damned thing like the plague. Balance issues aside, I would maybe play every once in awhile, if not for the :tard: :tard: :tard:, if only for the Helo's...

DC in its current incarnation is lame in and of itself . . . it only follows that the play is similar! It'll probably be that way until the balance issues are fixed.

I've been there a few times... eacxh time kicking or banning 20 to 30 idiots in an hour. What can I do when 12 plane-campers start shooting at each other and at the planes all of a sudden? FF is off, so there's no proof, and it all happens too suddenly, it's impossible to read the tags.

Add to that a chopper unloading 341000 missiles on the airfield at the same time, and enough noise from the jet engines and the choppers to drown everything else.

Also add so many death messages that everything scrolls too fast to read, and a 5 to 10 minutes chat lag.

The DC server is the gulag of admins. :)

HAH.. ya, they do seem to have a pretty quick rate of fire... Bot Boy do they ever rain down some serious fire...

Maybe ECGN needs to rethink having it as a dedicated server, as even the admins don't want to play on it - not a good thing when trying to drum up new business... although from a smooth play/no lag standpoint it still is tops, as far as I'm concerned..

I think switching it over to DC was a GREAT idea as far as marketing. The DC server is busy ALL the time, sure the rampant idiocy is annoying if you are looking to play seriously (why are trying to play DC seriously in the first place?). But there are idiots that see how well the server plays, and think wow I want one. I say let them stew in their own juices... And stay away.

Heh.. reminds me of a conversation I had in IRC last night..

Friend: Hey Comm! Wanna play some bf1942?
Me: sure! Want to play serious, or just mess around
Friend: just mess around
Me: OK.. We'll play some DC then
Friend: Can you do anything else on those servers?
Me: That's why I picked it

Needless to say, witin 5 minutes of jopining the server, I saw at least 5 helicopters take off, flip over and crash, our team get half its vehicles stolen, and tk's for the remaining vehicles.. well, we won't even go there.. (It wasn't on the ECGN server btw)

I don't take it SERIOUSLY...but i wan't some sort of organized gameplay, instead of just mass chaos everywhere all the time...

it gets real old after a while:violin: :tard:

Give up your taste for unbalanced gameplay and return to the game that started it all. Server #1 will always be there for you... Well until it isn't.

I'll return once there are some VARIETY of maps instead of the same old shit all the time...


A nice, fresh, custom map would be a good change of pace :)

I ran DC on my server for the last 2 weeks. I took it down yesterday and put Battlefield1942 back up. DC is alot of fun when you've got a majority of the players on TeamSpeak, and they arent camping for a chopper...but it does draw 100 times as many smacktards. I want a full server, but not that bad.

The rotation has been changed, and now there's a custom map: A Bridge Too Far v2.

Bastogne. There is a Pearl Harbor map, dunno if it's good. As for Caen, watch for my review, which will be posted sooner than you expect. :)
