new anarchy ffa settings

Info on Quake 3 and Vogon servers

Either way the anarchy US server has been dead since the change. It's a shame, I was hoping more people will get on board with the new settings.

So in the end, it should be returned to the regular vogon style it was before, since no one ever goes there any more.

Gumby it has it's peak during the afternoon PST. I am even surprised at how much traffic the 3 servers have been getting!

Dyn can you chime in, how has traffic been for the Q3 servers?

it's true there have been a few regulars with the whole "take my toys and go home" thing, so it seems.

I don't mind the new settings, but what I miss most are all the regulars. Everytime I've played over the past week or so, there's been almost none of the players I enjoy playing most. :(

Yes, it has. Without a doubt.

Does that surprise anyone? It's not just the "regulars" either. It's nearly everyone.

I play for the excitement of combat in the hard core mod. If it's toned way down, it's not as exciting. :bored:

Well I like the new settings, the only reason I haven't been on as much lately is that my wife and I just had a baby girl which is of course exciting and exhausting. Unfortunately my wife was not keen on us naming her vogon, in fact I think her response was "what the fuck is vogon?" Prob for the best, I think vogon would make a better boy's name than girl's....

Anywho, I can't decide which I love more, the "evil" admin's playing around with settings on FFA to keep us all on our toes and make it a whole new game from time to time OR the shitstorm of feet-stomping hissy fits that follow on the forum. Good stuff....

Jimbo!!!

Congrats on your baby girl man!

Is this your first child?

My baby girl is about to turn 16. Man, it was just the other day she was riding on my hip with her hat and baby doll in tow.

I bet she'll be batting her eyebrows at ya within a few weeks!!

Don't worry about FFA, we are testing this only because there is UK server with usual settings and US one will have something like that soon. I wanted to see our excessive combined with regular Q3A mode.

OK, first, lots of love here... Dyn, you rock. Anarchy FFA, you rock. Admins, you rock.

But... THESE SETTINGS SUK D!K.

I sneak on at all different times of the day and here's what happens: the usual bigs (KQ, Gum, Zoo, AG, Inspjim) have 40 frags, everyone else 0. It's ridiculous. If I'm playing a bunch of n00bs, same thing. Me 40, them 0. Once the best player currently on the board gets quad and/or wings there's no point in playing. Further, a lot of usuals will show up, *sigh* and then disconnect.

Call me a complainer, a bitch, a douche, I don't care (except Dean, Ric, I'll f*@k you up!) ... this is not a good setting for this server. If you really want to keep this setting for a while, maybe dump quad and telefuckall?

Thanks for listening. You current settings lovers can suck it. :D Fist-stomping, hissy-fits away!

Douche, I would never call you a complainer :vampyr: ! Sorry couldn't resist! xD You make some valid points. My one change would be no wings. Telebomb roXors, it's the only way to get rid of quad against a better player lol, hence i am not the better player!

LOL. Craij. You're such a nagging biatch!!! And as for the "i'll F you up" thingy. BRING IT BITCH!!!

Yes, the settings suck. Do what I'm doing (when I have the chance). Go to the UK server, SPAM your ass off and kill some fucking socialists!!!!

Personally, I just pretend they are all Obama voting noobs. God help them.

Oh yea, Dyn, can you jack up the lightning gun so I can use it exclusively on Craij? He loves to get fragged with the LG. LOL!!!!

i don't really understand what the big deal is with these settings. it's something different. other than being slowed down without haste, picking up ammo is nearly the same as uk's ammo limitations.

in reference to craij's post, i think the one change i'd suggest is making rockets the default starting weapon instead of rail.

i'd also reiterate that the sooner you stop counting frag numbers and worrying about winning, the sooner you'll win.

oh, also, it might help make people stick around when there aren't groups of players incessantly ranting during the game about how shitty everything is.

So that's worse than when we connect with the reg settings and you have 60 while we have 100? :lol:

At least the administrators know how to spice up the forums!

Though I completely agree with the theory of implementing changes every so often, I think it would be most enjoyable
when these are done occasionally for some time (that is not very long)


btw, Id like to see some more of the big guns (which I used to see on the US server) on the UK server.

You can all get your behinds handed to you (except for Nitzer, he,s too good for me :D )

later all
