Scores Too High?

masterswordman · February 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">No flames plz</div> Okay, I've seen the other post, but it's too long, no body would read. it so, I've put up another one with posts of the highest scores you've seen people get. Any class, please don't follow up with 20 pages for each pic, just put 1 up, and let it do the talking.

If they are too large to download, just tell me and I'l reduce them several times in size.

FOCUS ON GIZMO

Those are the scores I get as a Fade every game.

Did anybody else get what the poster meant? At least what I picked up is that he's sick of idiots sitting in vents when they could win the games, only spamming acid rockets to rack up kills.

Zel · February 2003

i thought he was accusing that guy of cheating, but maybe he was accusing him of sitting in vents to rack up kills. however i doubt 28 marines would go past that vent....

Ollj · February 2003

ive seen players with that scores and their quotes.
fact is that they use teammates as dummies, drawviewmodel 0, 3rd person view or other cheats/scripts and the worst kind of egoistic teamplay u can imagine.

masterswordman · February 2003

I'm not accusing this guy of cheating any way, I just said because 1) All the high scores threads. there should be a more refined one. 2) Yes it's very lame, no matter how we attacked we couldn't hit him, maybe some invisable brushes acting as func_wall. Oh and he's a really good gorge, he's smart because he has like 5 def chambers down there, and a movement, invinsiblity.

Personally I find putting any type of Khaara structure in that vent dangerous. Dangerous for the Khaara that is. Siege and Sweep will take care of the structures while the splash damage hurts/kills the Khaara. Dont forget about GL's either.

Just_Ayane · February 2003

they are actually medium scores......

Who ****ing cares about scores. So if he's good he deserves being praised for playing hard. SO what, most of the time I have a kill/death ratio thats very close to equal but on special occations I can easily rack up 27/2 scores and such. On a blue moon. But using this image gives no opinion of the player.

I do agree that something needs to be done with that vent for 1.1 because it can be extremely difficult for even a GL to get into that vent without the marine getting hurt or killed. A seige yes, but please remember that a seige is extremely hard to put up while your being bombarded by acid rockets from that vent. I agree that something should be changed for 1.1 but making good players look bad as if your jelous doesn't make me conclude that that person is cheating, hacking, exploiting.

On many occations I have gone into that vent even after it was welded from the Sewer Subvessel and went gorge, placed a couple DC, went skulk, then evolved to Fade (since the marine team didn't work as a team to disrupt our second hive going up) and continued to splash the heck out of the spawning marines.

Also to get kills so easily the marines probably didn't have upgraded armor or upgraded weapons so in their part, they deserve to be killed by a good alien player.

TALK ABOUT MISREPRESENTATION of SKILLS!

Marine Total Team Kills: 14
Alien Total Team Kills: 104

The marine team must have been a real challenge there hotshot. I've played these kinda games so don't even try to call this screenshot a demonstration of skill. Playing against a bunch of DMing Marines is like shooting fish in a barrel, it doesn't take any skill whatsoever.

You know most of the screenshots taken for that other "Frag Thread" was the exact same thing, high individual scores on games with team that were obviously loopsided in terms of balance and teamwork.

Wow didn't notice that, thanks for pointing that out to everyone Fantasmo. The team score says it all, like I said, the amrien team was probably not working together very well or were not upgraded due to bad commanding.

Cxwf · February 2003

I'm not entirely sure (maybe a developer would like to comment?), but I'm fairly sure that the marine team score is NOT a straight kills score. It also tracks other things such as the value of their base--or maybe thats ALL it tracks, since I know I've seen late game screenshots (as in, 1 minute or so before last marine is hunted down and killed) where the marine team has 0 score.

Even in this screenshot, you can see that the aliens have died 43 times to the marines 14 score. Unless you expect me to believe that those highly skilled aliens managed to suicide a combined total of 29 times, the marines score is OBVIOUSLY not counting all of their kills.

Edit: BTW, Fantasmo, thats probably where you got the idea that most of the screenshots for the other "fragthread" were highly lopsided. If you check, you'll probably see that the aliens have died plenty of times. Maybe they have a 2-1 or 3-1 kill ratio, but not 10-1 like it seems from the scores.

EVIL ADMIN, gave aliens a 2nd hive 5 seconds after the game started

mraltz · February 2003

a score of 28-0 isn't that great bud. i mean, the marine team was hardly trying.. pathetic. i've had better then that, and seen many people with better then that.

FireStorm · February 2003

That's just normal scores. I had a game where I made more kills than the entire marine team...

Nemesis_Zero · February 2003

I tolerated the first 'watch my cojones' thread, post in there if you must.
