wow was on just a minute ago, 23 panzer deaths, 3 nades, and 3 with real guns......I think its time for a change damn come on, I'm thinking about quitting this game all together, it seems all these limits are killing this server, bring back the air strikes, it only makes sense with ff on an air strike will be more well placed now, someone pleaseeeee stop this panzer maddness, it seems everyone drops their panzer and /kill and the next guy graps it, seems there was 7 panzers on the axis side all at top of net, doesn't it make sense to give us a little bit more bar to throw one, I know for a fact no one would be shooting from there again

pleaseeee help the regs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you can't take it, don't dish it out. Join the weak team, and do the best you can until you get blown up

.

I've seen the "weak" team become the "owning" team very quickly on occasions. What is important, is that you do your best for your team and for yourself, and have a good time!

rofl dont have the guts ...how about the patience to deal with noobs.and in the ss round you posted u were getting pwned with mp40s hard and was using a panzer along with another guy on your team and a flame.dont complain about ping cause if you had a 5 ping your not gonna pwn (regulars)anyone who is pwning you already most of us have better system specs or isp,this isnt are fault and we shouldnt fee pressure to play with high pings to balance things out wolf is a teamgame as we all know, u need help and i dont like it when i cant trust my backup or help to do simple basic things in the game.it makes me get angry just like everyone else so yes i look to join a team with one or 2 people i know.playing with players styles you are familiar with is important with ff on.teams never stay balanced as soon as the rounds end people dc or switch to the weak team and turn the game right around on the stacked ones.to call out us regulars and say we are trashing the server playing with 2 or 3 good players on one team is just stupid..war is unblanced so why should we try for the most even teams at all times i mean wth

Curious, when I see nofx stats, he killed beowulf 328 vs 39 deads, but when i go to beowulf stats, he killed nofx 78 times, and nofx killed 656 times beowulf

Damn Figo, you didn't have to punk me in public! LOL
NOFX's KR damn near 7.3!!!! He owns me when we battle against each other, I just feel proud Im #1 on most deaths, even if kills/death ratio by me are very one sided!!! :help:

It's just a joy to play against great players!

And if you notice, 328x2=656 and 39x2=78! That too much a coincidence if it is with multiple CD-Keys Nofx!

True, you are so observer.

I think the ping is not SO important (clear, it should be under 200). I can play very well with a ping of 170.

by ***arjay*** » Sat Apr 03, 2004 10:35 am

hey ticks i wasn't having a bash at you or anyone personally! i posted that screen shot as i thought it was relevant to this issue! i don't know if you were saying i was using the panzer in that game or someone else? as i only played the allies game and i didn't use panz at all!
and to say "if you had a 5 ping your not gonna pwn (regulars)" is insulting man! for a start i consider myself a regular! since i play almost everyday for an hour at least! and have done for it must be at least a year!
i agree with what you said about joining a team with a few people you know who play like yourself or that you can trust! but i am not talking about this, i am talking about the times when there are teams which are extremely unbalanced! the screen shot i posted was not the best example but it does show the difference in pings! which is as common as "the regs vs the noobs".
also i was not implying that the regulars are trashing the server i said that if we scare off all the new players we will not have anyone to play against! people leave the scene almost everyday, slaughter said in his post he is thinking of quitting the game all together! there is someone who plays often who is thinking of leaving! if the new players are scared off then there will be no one to replace the old players!
i know the server will never be totally balanced but i think it would benefit from a more balanced playing field! like extreme said "i like to go allies w/ the noob team that way its more a challange 2 me" it can be more fun to play on the weaker side or when the teams are balanced out! it is more of a challange and more of an accomplishment when you do win when it is stacked against you or when the team you beat is of similar skill to your team! it gets boring when you are on a team that takes like 2 minuets to win and then you have two 25min matches where you just slaughter noobs and boost your kr! that is not skill! skills is fighting someone who is better or of equal skill as yourself and beating them! it is running the docs out of the warroom full of axis and all the way to the radio room having to fight your way there with your team and working as one unit! anyone can be a cow and be dragged behind 5 regs as they go and kill whatever noob happens to be in the way of their win!

i hope someone took the time to read that!

People playing axis tend to ping lower. I'm not sure why, perhaps something to do with it being less band-intensive than playing on allies. Not to discount arjay's post on the issue, but a relevant thought.

I prefer reasonably balanced teams as there is more of a challange for everyone. I will shuffle teams when they are grossly lopsided (and usually see all of the stacking culprits leave asap :lol:

). Lot of times people want a shuffle and I'm disinclined to do that as game dynamics can change pretty quick at the end of a round. I always try to go on the weakest team, and have found many times I've had to switch again after 4 rounds because of the teams changing so much.

Change in peoples nature doesn't happen as quickly as a few rounds though, so the good folks just have to keep steady and do the right thing.

Dam... I had something else to add and can't think of it. Drink coffee first, then compose messages

Keek.

<edit> Oh yeah. Faust limits were brought down. Can't stop people from discarding weapon and using /kill though. Both are contestious issues, no question, but both are kept in the game for over-all game enjoyment. For example--if the can't pick weapons up option is on, then medics can't scavange for ammo off discarded guns. The solution of increasing med ammo (it already is up an extra clip) results in everyone going med. /kill is useful in the game if you have to change classes. Personally I don't like this one at all but the majority seem to want it so such is life.

peace

I think the problem is when it succes, at 3-5a.m. (the mornings for us, Arjay) there are few ppl, and is so easy if 2 regulars join in same team, the game is stacked.(and if T!cks is in one, more stacked :p. ). When it´s night in USA and there are more than 24 players, normally the teams are more balanced. Well, in my modest opinion.

Actually, whenever an admin does a shuffle, alot of people might leave because they may have just finished playing axis or allies, and then get placed on that team again. After I finish two rounds of a side, if a shuffle places me on that side again, I usually just go to another server. Also, if youve been playing for a while, a shuffle comes as a natural break (bathroom, smoke, etc).

Just cuz someone leaves after a shuffle, doesnt mean they are 'stacking culprits.'

what is with this server?
