Winning?

<div class="IPBDescription">keep it *G*angsta, thats what I say</div> These are my views about the current NS situation.

A few things I dont like about the way people play NS.

1. Clan stacking/good player stacking, its not on. My biggest beef with NS!

When you play on the same servers, often you tend to see the same people around and learn whos good and whos not so good. One thing that pisses me off is when all the good payers join the same team (and know there doing it) <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Whats the point?? - you just know your going to win.

2. Bunny hopping

Yes just because the game allows you to do it, doesnt mean you have to. When I play as marines I generally don't do it. I often see marines that dont even walk they just jump, everywhere. Well why cant you just walk on the floor? I dont need to bunny hop like a gimp to stay alive, I use my brain. Also theres nothing more annoying then biting a marine in mid air only for him to be flung back across the room making you an easy target <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Be a man!!! Not a BUNNY

3. Moaning at your commander

Being the commander is a hard job. Most people dont want to be the commander because they know if they lose that the marine team will blame them. Never moan or blame your commander, did you offer to do it...no, well then shut you mouth and listen to his instructions.

The commander is only as good as the marines he leads in combat.

4. Retarded gorgs

Guys, please if you are new to the game or your brain capacity is low, dont gorg. Its the easiest and quickest way to lose the game for your team. I see people go early gorg, build offence chambers in the middle of no where then build a DC on a res node!!! Only gorg if you really know what your doing. If you ask anyone esle to, and there are no takers then fair enough, but otherwise please, stay as skulk.

Just think about it...

There are always going to be players that are better then you, and probably some that are worse. NS is very team orientated. It would be nice to mix good players in with the not so good, that way they can learn and improve. Play in a fun, fair way. Winning isnt everything, especially if you knew you were going to anyway. Try to treat people with respect and help others learn.

All I want to see is competetive well fought games. Close games with even teams. Its no fun joining a team you know are going to lose <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    bhopping is the gain in speed, not the jumping to dodge bites

    I'm sorry, but this is a pet peeve of mine, I mean no offense by it.

    "Gorge" is spelt with an "e" on the end. Gorg<b>e</b>.

    That is all.

    Insane , this too is of great anoyance to me. I hope its fixed in 2.0 D:

    The reason most people say gorg is because thats all the comes up when u press tab, for all the people who have not read the manual (which you really should have)

    Gorge (n): An instance of gluttonous eating.
    Gorge (v): To stuff with food; glut: gorged themselves with candy

    and because its fat, they TSA called it a gorge <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah that's a pretty big one there. When they start blaming then the game is already over because they won't make themselves useful, but um whine all the time. Usually when this starts happening I got to yell and curse to get them back into the game. Whiney marines are as uselful as a pile of gorge dung!

    lol, its like today, me an G were on a server being unrightiously informed of our "nub"ness by some bunnyhopping abusive shite (Clan [comm] might want to have a word with Hickz about that, he's giving you lads a bad image). It ruins the feel of a game when your prey bounces backwards faster than you can run forwards. Also, always trying to relocate to the same old reliable spots kills off variety, too many times have rines gone to any number of locations with cargo in the name because they are easy spots to take the rest of the map or secure res; Its not the final match in the league of NS that if you lose you die IRL people!!

    What makes me mad is when servers enforce "no clan stacking." Most of the members in my clan do not wear the tag when they pub - why? We want to play with eachother, its much more fun for us, and we get pratice. If we were to wear our tags, people would just never shut up about clanstacking, etc. For clans its fun to play with eachother, and good pratice.
  • StoneMonkStoneMonk Join Date: 2003-06-11 Member: 17279Members, Constellation
    How is beating up on undisciplined pub players with clan tactics considered good practice? I'd consider it bad practice, and would make you sloppy against real clans. If you want a clan practice, get a server or scrim another clan. A series of uneven 4 min games on a pub for the sake of practice seems a weak reason to destroy the natural pub player balance (for what it is worth).
  • nojmasternojmaster Join Date: 2003-06-05 Member: 17027Members
    exactly, save clan tactics for clan matches, cos they have a tendancy to ruin pubs

    1) our commander rarly joins us on the servers we pub at - so we dont comm

    2) we dont even give the commander tips about anything

    3) we just have fun with eachother and enjoy the game -- becuase 3 of us are in a clan and on the same team hardly means we are going to win - we treat it was a pub.

    There is NOTHING wrong with bunny hop. You might as well take out everything in the game that requires actual skill and practice to become good at.

    Although useful as a noob, there's no reason bunny hopping should be allowed... it's annoying and keeps me from killing those damned marines....

    I think it should be allowed for aliens because aliens have to go through the trouble of getting up right next to you...

    I win

    Are you saying that it's usefull for noobs? Noobs can't bhop, hell 95% of vets can't even bunny hop.

    heh... ok, it's useful if you're a noob that knows how to bunny hop...

    you sir have NO idea what your talking about. Where does this wonderful 95% statistic come from? perhaps its the fact that i know for a fact that the vast majority of them CAN bunny hop? I have after all seen them do it on numerious occasions. So i ask you, if you cant even get a statistic REMOTLY correct then why should the rest of what you said even be paid attention to?

    the moral of this story, dont post statistics when you just dont have a clue what your talking about.

    The devs know about the annoying physics-related parts of the game and are working at it.

    Any non-physics issue (like team-stacking) is pretty much common to any game. Your best hope here is a server with admins who actually sign on and play with you. Throw a slap at it!
