I see dedis popping up in this thread all the time, so lets say they did make dedi servers for the next release and lets say they based the euro servers centrally in say france, I get a constant 100ms ping to them whilst all the french get sub 50ms. NO THANKS. Or they could do this then add lag compensation to them to balance it all out.
Um. Or they could just have a server for the UK, and another for central europe. There's no point advocating the worst outcome extrapolated from what I was saying. That's straw-manning.
****ing can't stand low ranked split screens. One on my team I can deal with but two, I quit.
Oh definitely is the recon drone, can't believe you get 100point per tag, far too easy and it's impossible to shoot down
Recon drones are easy to shoot down. Just use a stinger or an EMP grenade. I have a "getting pwned" class I switch to when the enemy team are raping mine with air support and it's along these lines: ACR silenced& kick, stinger, frag & EMP, Blind Eye, Assassin, Sitrep with support killstreaks. I usually seem to be the only one in my team who bothers to shoot things down, my team-mates are perfectly happy to get massacred repeatedly running underneath they enemy AH6 or Pavelow. In these kind of games I never get a great KD because my "getting pwned" class is pretty horrible for actually trying to kill other players, but I always give my team a big help which at least stops the game from just being an easy slaughter for the enemy.
As for split screeners, doesn't bother me. If they're enemies then it's easy kills for me, and if they're on my team then they can run ahead and when they die I'll know where the enemy are
On another note, I recommend this class for the ultimate pro-factor:
Dragunov with no proficiency or attachment.
MG36 (via overkill. You're not allowed to actually use this gun, it's just to slow you down)
Throwing knife
Trophy system
Recon
Overkill
Stalker
NO killstreaks selected.
Juiced.
That's pretty much the worst possible setup I can come up with. I used it for about 15 games and probably averaged about 1.1 KD which is waaay better than I expected. My goal is to get the gold camo for the dragunov for extra trolling. I wish copycat was still in this game - how hilarious would it be for enemy to find himself stuck with the above class!
