No more deemers of power

Post by border_2 » Fri Mar 16, 2007 10:29 am

lately of noticed alot of noobs spamming deemers with disregard for others having no sturdy.To do nothing but spam deemers from a hidden location is weak and doesnt help the server at all.I think we should ask joey to keep the deemer from being a wop so deemer spamming ass people have to man up and play.What do you gain by hiding?Can you inprove as a player by hiding?The same deemer spammers beg all game for pus because they dont get in the monsters grill to claim pus.

IMHO this is a way for low-level (under Lvl 50-75) players to quickly advance - ESPECIALLY if they are under level 50, and MORE especially in the later waves. Let's be honest - I know that I myself have, at level 50, hidden in a safe spot and spammed the deemer in waves 14+. If I were to go "get in the grill" of the mobs, I would die quickly and mercilessly. And until you do get to the higher levels when you DO have a higher DR/DB, you're pretty much useless in those later waves.
I will consistently sacrifice political correctness for an attempt at humor. If ya can't deal, then ya need ta stop being ign'ant.

the best best way i have found to level up when i was new here was to get involved with as many super shock rifle levels as possible. the very first one i ever played here, i gained nearly 25 levels that map. that was a great start!

in the interim between the ssr levels, i would look to making weapons that released many projectiles or had splash damage. even if much is missed, at least the ones that did strike added experience damage and had helped a lot in the spots i chose to hang out and kill. i remember way back then just hanging in the same spot and killing there, afraid at all to go running around lest i be murdered instantly!

oh! but to the deemers thing..i have played a few maps that superforced, resupplied deemers of power saved the day. but my god...they just nonstop went off over and over and over during most of the map @..@

i don't know how to vote on this since there are pros and cons, so i won't. i used to think long ago the deemer was some awesome wonderful thing. but this server and all its awesomeness just illustrates that weapon is just another, and overall, mostly useless now. except for those dumb nalis and warlords to seemingly shoot 4 out at once with!

I voted yes because they are extremely anoying to the people that dont have sturdy, and the blast covers a ton of your screen when ur tryin to shoot monsters.

i am just a low level of 183 i have been playing for only 4 months and I have never used a deemer. i know that if I die i will still get to play the next wave. That gives me 20 waves to get some points.
When I started playing i would not last but about 20 or 30 sec. per wave
that tought me to play and last longer. Border_2 is the one who brought me to the game and this is a real fun game to play.
I just can't see how some one can brag and bet there chest about there score when they just use the deemer
I will give pu to people that try and fail. Then not try at all

I actually mis interrupted the question and put the wrong vote in. I think EVERYTHING should be able to be WOP'ped INCLUDING SSR.

As it stands now, you can NOT WOP and DEEMER,SSR, or a ION Painter.

Someone didn't read the first post...

You can wop the deemer and the other super weapons, just like everything else.

Lemme clarify this, you CAN NOT USE a gold kit to WOP these weapons. Yes, you can randomly get one of power. I hate random shit.

Alot of people are right. But even if you are going to let people make any deemer a wop. Key who is going to spend there Gold doing it for a low level player. Specially when the multli gold might be going away soon. I wont be for sure!!sorry not trying to be mean but I'm not going to wop a weapon for one person when I can do a flak or RL and pass it out.
Later all!
