quick server update

Postby [SCUM] Blackout » 21 Jul 2008, 09:13

oik so server has been filling up nicely now for a few days, lets keep it up! :mrgreen:

changes i have made;

we now have 3 rounds on any SAB map because the tie braker sudden death thingy was killing the server.

Killcam has gone (1 week trial over)

changed spawntimer on HQ GT to same as others = 0 seconds, people were moaning ALOT about having to wait.

switched to 5 rounds in SD to enable a clear victory to either team.

Agreed. Killcam allowed me to feel in control of the server more.

I prefer it off, but I see why some may like it on for admin reasons.

Lets do this if its not too much overhead on those who use the console, one week on one week off. That way we can use it to catch people unawares....

just a thought.

I wish we could cut the Killcam time down to 4 seconds. Point of kill is all that's necessary for glitch checks. I did ban to people for a no recoil hack on the sniper weapon through killcam and confirm with the screenshot... But then peeps would rather spawn straight away and get back in the game.

It's a tough decision.

Isn't it possible to skip it immediately with a click?

Yes, but you still have to wait to respawn. I guess I don't want to wait to respawn. I want to get back in the game straight away with as little time as possible.

I think I'm going to send a snail mail letter to the COD group.

We're just going around in circles here,on sab,and s+d maps u forced to wait anyway because of respawn...all the rest you can skip with "F" immediately so theres no problem really.

Killcam back on as it saves us more trouble than it causes.

The way I see it is that the killcam can be a small pain but with it the admins can catch out cheaters and make playing on the server more enjoyable for everyone.

lol, its a new gametype SAB - short for Sabotage.

there is 1 bomb between the two teams, and the aim of the game is for one of the team to succsesfully plant the bomb at one of the targets and get it to blow up. its kinda like a 2 way SD. really goof GT for the larger scope camper maps... :D
