Gameplay Help

Post by [iX]AnnaBeaver » Sat Jan 06, 2007 1:55 pm

While I was on the server last night playing Invasion..I see someone say that I'm hording all the pu's. It went something like this.....

Image

Now...first off...let me say...I don't have any problem giving up any pu's that aren't necessary or are already in use on a weapon. I still don't fully understand the pu's...so sometimes, I'm not sure if I'm going to need them....or if I need to toss them.

I wasn't even aware that voice chat was enabled on the server...until a week or two ago, when ZombieSlayer told me to turn it on. So, in addition xfire and all the talk on team speak from my clan...I'm also trying to hear the voice chat and pay attention to text chat on the invasion server. A vast majority of the time, I don't even know who's talking. I have the VOIP image in UT turned on so that I can tell who's talking...but quite often...a pic and a name never pops out. So, I end up typing things like.."Who needed the inf pu"? or "Who needed a flak wop +10?" over and over...with no reply. Well, needless to say...I'm not going to continue to stand there idling and retyping that just waiting for someone to respond.

I try to pay attention to chat as best I can...but I don't see everything that is typed there. But just like everyone else...once I get a preferable weapon......then I toss my pu's when I can. If you want something specific....and I haven't responded to you in chat (cause if I see it...I WILL respond) then just come to me and shoot me...cause that always gets my attention. I certainly don't have a problem giving it to you if you need it. Sometimes, I don't even realize the amount of pu's I have and I still don't know what all of them are by sight..and so I have to scroll through them at a...not so fast pace. By the time I find what I need..and apply it...the wave has already started. I'm not like alot of players that can stand there for hours on end and not die...a couple hits...and I'm out.

Evil, You say it's a team game...yet most of the time at around waves 8,9 and 10, I still have virtually no pu's. It's usually due to people and their super speeds that run around swiping everything in site...trying to pick up summons, so that they can get a lil lady, or ssr mini. I've also noticed alot lately...that even if it's a monster that I killed...and I'm going to get the pu...someone uses their weapon that they've jacked up with the "knock back" pu....to shoot me..and force me away from the pu. Are those things that are considered to be "team game" actions?

Evil...you say.."You sure as hell don't help anyone here" and then call me a liar. Maybe you could review all the server chat logs...to verify those statements and I find them to be inaccurate. Why would I want to keep a weapon or pu that I'm not even going to use? Because many times...I offer weapons and pu's, but for the most part...no one says a word.

If I'm doing the weapons and pu's wrong...then I certainly have no problem in learning how to do it right. But, calling me a liar doesn't help. So, if people are willing to help me learn what I need to do...then I'm all for it. I will certainly review the "Server Rules" section. But, if anyone has any suggestions on what is appropriate...then feel free to let me know what that is. :)

I'm sorry...I'm not trying to spam or anything, but there is no "edit" button.

I just wanted to add..... I'm not a bad player...or a "Liar", I have played invasion with AXE, Twinkie and ZombieSlayer for years now and they would know they type of player I am...better than anyone. :D

everbody hates evil :D
but there is one thing that piss me of alot... stealing ... if u call some1 a stealer how u want to know that u was the only one who shoot at the monster? u cant know that... how do know what pus are supossed to be urs? just becous they fly to ur direction? just becous u only see the monster and nobody else shooting at the monster? ever thought about that they shooting from another direction at the monster where u cant see the people??... think about it..

another thing that piss me of... i like carball very much but i hate those guys who think they can do what ever they want... example: most people vote for carball...we play carball.. and just becous they didnt vote for carball they think they can just vote during then game.. WTF?
once .. we voted for carball and this evilacid guy said the whole time : all vote .. and more shit like that
ehm... just becous u suck in carball evil u dont have to do shit like this.. and all u guys too who do the same like he...
vote is vote and if u dont like carball if its currently running just gtfo...

oh and gratz to helpu he finished racing1 map in carball .. well done!(maybee more done it but thats the first time that i see it)
pce and out :) bye!

I will vouch for Anna (not that I need to).

Anna I do suggest turning off teamspeak for iX while playing on monster madness though. Lot less confusing ;) I've offered you pu's/weapons and you seem to ignore me. So I think you'd enjoy the game more if you didn't yap with iX in game :p

Shoot me a pm if you have any questions about pu's/weapons and if I can't answer, I'll bug the heck outta Joey until he answers :D

I don't hate evil. Sometimes evil will get a pu I'm after and I get a little pissed...but oh well that's the game.

Unless Joey codes it so that the player that kills the monster is the only one able to grab a pu...it's going to happen everday.

ROFL hit submit and not preview :D

There are cliques within the server. Those that use voice chat almost exclussively are almost always giving pu's/weapons to others using voice chat, even when someone who doesn't use voice chat needs the pu's/weapon even more.

So I suggest all you mofo's learn to read. Because I'll stop helping you out if you aren't reading the messages from us non voice chatters.

i agree most with anne, without that superspeed part, you often enough superspeeded away "my" or others pu`s.

and yes u r right with that summons, its a teamgame, so, why do allways only the same have the best summoned weapons? and mostly every 2. map the same wep? summons are for all to try to become a better wep, and not for a####les who stack speeds to become all summons first...
oh, or to stack speeds to run in front of you to block your shots so he can kill the the monster first with his better wep... like this border-gay loves to do...

i forgot, that "reading part"...
well zombie, many mofos play with default settings, means they play with
a very small chat-font-size, dunno what its default is cause i changed that first day of 2k4...so by default its very small and not really good and fast readable on a 17" screen...
so my tip: go settings/HUD and change chat-font size and the 2 others to "4".. think its best... if u allways want really be allerted by a message, u can change chatfontsize 10... then ur whole screen is one message...but i bet this is not what u want :-)
