Sorry ive been messing about with the server but it should work now.

I'm trying out a new plugin called an Adaptive Size Plugin or something. As more people join it slowly increases the server size all the way to 32 players. I'm hoping this will attract more players. (quick natch joiners)

Remains to be seen how effective its going to be. I've just started it up and am sitting in there now.

Changed the map rotation a bit as well, added some more vehicle maps in like Gulf Of and Caspian.

Seen a guy apologising after every kill with it, people were still raging at him. I think it's fair to say that the no-rpg rule is against EA/Dice's terms now that there is an assignment to do it.

People make not like taking a rocket to the face, but then there are plenty of other weapons and explosives available to blast back with.

To be honest its never really bothered me, I tend to be moving around quite a lot anyway so the odd RPG is just a different way to die. Its amazing though how much it angers some people though. I remember a guy on BC2 that trolled the EAUK forums for month, he had about 8000 Gustav kills and people were threatening him with physical violence lol.


HAHAHA, here he is,

He finished with over 12000 CG kills LoL

alls fair in love and war i say.

Play the game how Dice intended it to be played.

There is a dogtag for killing people with the MAV for a reason - because they intended it to be humerous use for it.

Being shot with RPGs doesnt really bother me either, yes you don't have to have skill to kill somebody with it, but so what ?

And as for spawn raping.. well lets be honest its fun. Why do we play these games ? to run amok, have fun, shoot people and win the game. Something that spawn raping your opponents when they are on the run provides in bucket fulls.

So when you're on the receiving end of it you just suck it up and get on with it.

This is my thoughts on these type of games too. It doesnt matter how I get killed, I get killed because im in a war zone! I'm sure in real life if you're stood there with an RPG and an enemy soldier comes into sight that wants to kill you you wouldnt stop and think 'no i cant kill him as it'd be to noobish'. It's war, get over it. People who complain about camping make me laugh too. Again its war, get over it :D It is only a game after all. There are far too many hormones flying around in some of these games sometimes.
 
Is it possible in mumble to have seperate channels depending what side you are on? While the banter between sides is fun, sometimes you want to talk squad tactics/commands without the other side hearing.
 
I guess I was asking the wrong question. Can anyone create alternative channels or just the mumble server admin (if there is one - first time I've used mumble).

Lol don't say that.... I was told yesterday its not war... its a game. (Matts server).

Noob tube for the win! haha :D

again, i hate being tube spammed as much as the next bloke, But when you have a room full of people entrenched in a room laying prone at the door guarding an MCom, theres not a lot else you can do. Running through the door turns you into swiss cheese.
 
Pretty boring now tbh, was fun at the start but now that everyone knows the exploits etc i'm not having fun anymore:(

Oh and do claymores kill your own team? I just had a tk come up in a round whilst i was dead, it could only be from a claymore.

Given just how *MENTALLY* anal you used to be about rules in CS matches (back in [JP] days), I'm very surprised to see you take that attitude :p
 
On the OcUK mumble its just 5UB I think that can change channels etc. We can't do it.

As for base raping and rocket kills. I find base raping really lame. It's boring, for both sides. That said, if you have been pushed back into your base then it's time to change your tactic, not start crying.

Rocket kills I don't have much issue with. Engineers near the vehicle are all fair game. Stumbling across someone and you've got a split second to fire with your RPG out, fair game. Having a good firefight with someone, hiding behind a skip to regen some health and have a rocket come your way.. annoying but fair game. It's the ones that run around with the RPG out just to kill infantry that are lame, but it's not an effective tactic. If you're being killed by these people then you're not killing them fast enough.
 
Could someone give me some pointers/tips to get the "Surveillance Efficiency Ribbon" (5 motion sensor assist kills in a round), it's the last ribbon for the full set for me but I just don't seem to get it, am I to let my team mates get the kills within the range of the TUGS rather than me?
Only played as recon for a very short time and mostly with the PDW as I don't enjoy being out of the battle.
 
It's 7 kills, where the enemy was first spotted by you (or your T-UGS.)

1. Jump on a metro server.
2. Drop T-UGS at steps/escalators
3. wait about 30 secs
4. ???
5. Collect ribbon.

That is the easiest one to get. Go on Metro as Recon. Place your T-UGS near the action and watch the points grow. 7 spots and you have the ribbon. 7 spots on Metro is like 7 seconds :)
