Hi everyone,

I'm not sure how many agree with me but I am having trouble with this whole Team Killing mod.  What's the point of it really?  Some guys get carried away with it, and others just can't avoid killing teamates around corners.  It sucks in maps like nuclear football when you're about to cap on the enemy CP, and you're noob teamate throws a nade at you TKin you right on the CP, then gets pwned themselves, allowing the enemy team to get the ball back in play.  Or those random teamates in Well and Killbox that can't tell you from the enemy, or simply don't care and kill you over and over repeatedly with RPG.  Or the ever popular noob standing in front of a box of nades chucking them randomly at friendlies.

Would you consider taking friendly fire off, please?

Thanks,

Reapsta-}{aX.

FF is only for explosions.... but we're always open to feedback... if it sucks it sucks and we'll fix it. Just giving it a chance.

I forgot to say that Vinny made a good point is that the fact that there is team damage is that there is a drop in whoring which is a good thing makes the gameplay more fun because your not getting blown to smithereens on some maps but at times it still can be annoying

i have to agree, although i do get killed by my team once or twice a level, the whoring level (at least on 2 fort) has dropped.  it was bad for a  time when the x-bow was 199, because then everybody used rockets and killed EVERYBODY.  but now that the x-bow has returned, i'm seing less people throw nades.  the rocket whoring is still an issue on well where people camp the rooftop.  i wish murdy or kusa would modify this map to allow a passage to the top from the inside of the base.

well you're never going to stop nade whoring from the dm crowd, SMG nades you may be able to stop.  On your server you only get 3 rockets and if your on 2fort and not a camper, I don't see the problem with people using rpg more often.  Having people use other weapons, splash damage / whoring or not, its much more fun then playing with 22+ people using xbows only.

I kinda believe the same thing, there are many new people on The Tomb, and some of them dont know that there is FF for explosions, so they dont really mean to, but it happens. Thats only my opinion.

You know, it's funny.  The ones I usually see complaining about whoring (which is fun in its own right and I don't have a problem with when other people do it to me) are players who don't seem to take the time to adapt and overcome.

For every moronic, stupid tactic, there's a solution.  Every time a player is doing something that is annoying me, I take it upon myself to solve the problem and make them go away.  And if I can take them out enough times in a row, they eventually give up.

Don't get me wrong... I myself love playing periodically with some stupid, moronic tactics just for the fun of it, knowing I'll get my ass handed to me, just to see how long I can last.

Anyway, bring on the whoring.  I'll see you on the other end of my XBow.

Oh, and have you had the thrill yet of removing a whole team of XBow opponents on your way in storming the castle (as it were)?  I love a good challenge, and nothing trains you like a whole team of good XBowers.  Can be frustrating, but I always come away better than when I sat down.

Reap usually avoids our server, nad... He's anti-mod action... People can learn to adapt to the xbow madness (I know I have)... some choose not to. Since we unleashed the new weapon loadout... I've found I've used the xbow less.

I really dont see the xbows as a problem but really a solution.  Their are plenty of levels where you just need one shot one kill xbows...period. 

Examples:

ctf_powerplant_beta6:

Point 3 of capture becomes the major area to defend on either side.  People rocket whore all day long and there is no way to take them out and move onto to capture at times.  A few people will stack there with RPG's and whore that along with ORB's.  The xbow is what gives the ability to take out the people who dont advance and just whore for stats and never have the cahones to fight, but only from a distance.

ctf_nuclear_football_b3

Nades are an issue.  If someone near flag respawn stack up and nade the opposing side, the xbow is great.

ctf_warpath_b4, dm_lego....etc

There are plent of levels where the xbow is the ultimate attack weapon against ALL who whore.  It gives you a chance from far away to take out your vengence on those who deserve it.  Just think of the levels that experience the worst whoring and think how can I beat these bitches...xbow to the rescue.

Long live one shot one kill xbow.
