<div class="IPBDescription">Learn your own server</div> I just got banned from **** for "speed". Apparently someone doesn't know what 5 levels of cybernetics looks like.

I don't really care, but figured some would appreciate the irony of banning people for using your own server mods. GG combat.

cybernetics 3 allows marine bhop. sg+that = WIN 100% of the time.

Theres a plugin out there which gives about 5 new different kind of upgrades for rines/aliens, one of them on rines is cybernetics, which is basicly like celerity. Depending on the version of the plugin you can get the levels to 5 or higher (newest version caps at 5lvl). Bhopping rine in combat, its like 1.xx all over again.

DuoGodOfDeath

If I remember correctly its a speed boost enhancement for Marines. I prefer the self welding and extra armor upgrades in these types of servers because you can destroy an entire alien team easily.

It's pretty fun with level 9 cybernetics, level 5 nanoarmor, level 4 reinforced armor, and static field.
And by fun, I mean you won't die, ever.

I guess you guys have never gotten to the point where you fire all 8 of your shotgun rounds into the fade, and it doesn't die, and then it swipes you 4 times with focus swipe, and you don't die. :S

Sounds fun... I was waiting for b6 before I played anymore, but I think I'll give it a shot.

I'd been playing quite a bit of Combat since it came out and that should be fun.

I recommend you stay away from servers with that plugin until/if they haven't fixed it.

Through an easy procedure that is quite simple to discover by accident, you can get many levels for each upgrade point, with totally botches the game, because even in a 10 vs 10 or something a fade with level 50 hunger is a game ender.

Actually, he used quite guarded language, basically: "If this bug hasn't been fixed, don't bother playing on a server running this plugin."

Obviously this statement implies that a server with a fixed version of the plugin is a-ok to play on. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Indeed he did, but the implications are there. And as I stated in my example, the warning was unnecessary, unless every single mod and plugin out there deserves one also.

Soylent green that is actually very good advice and I apologize. Although my plugin (v1.7g ported to AMX Mod X v1.00) was updated and released to the public the moment the bug came to my attention, it seems Cheeserm's AMX v1.7d still has this bug.

I recommend any server ops running the AMX v1.7d contact me immediately regarding a fix, until Cheeserm updates his version. The AMX Mod X v1.7g has had the exploit bug fixed.

As allways, whenever someone uses an analogy or 'it is like <x>', they are simply trying to change the situation in their favour. Analogies are useless for all purposes, including explaining your point of view because they are allways different than what they refer to in some way or other.

Here is the particular point that you seek to remove with this particular analogy:

No need to run this into the ground, I already ate crow and apologized. *rollseyes*

But an amx version was also released that makes this plugin non-exploitable (at least for the previously mentioned bug).

As with <b>ANY</b> plugin, mod, or game, it is the server op's responsibility to ensure the latest version/s are installed on their server. Notice I said <b>ANY</b> and not just this plugin.

Even if a particular server did not have the latest version of extralevels2 installed, I wouldn't recommend a player "stay away from servers with that plugin until/if they haven't fixed it" ... just report it to an admin or whoever is listed as the sv_contact and I'm sure it will be fixed asap.
