Recent Changes
I don't know if it's just me...but the recent changes seem to be not very favorable. Finding a summons is almost impossible. Today I went through 16 waves...and didn't even see a summons..let alone pick one up. I'm not saying that they should just fall outta the monsters butts like diarreah...but they seem pretty scarce. Also...the wop weapon chance...must have been changed drastically too. Seems the best wop weapon I tend to get is only a +3. Normally...it's a negative...or damaged.
I just think it would be nice to have a decent weapon...somewhere before wave 14 or 15 :D Maybe I'm just confused by the change...but I'm lucky if I can get a weapon that kills anything by wave 13 :roll:

Hi Anna, yes we are aware of the problem with the summons and we are issuing one to the RB server administrators as we speak for ripping off our recently developed Jraaks colonic irrigation technology in violation of the competition act of 1998.
Once it goes to the courts and the technology is returned (along with my curry house operators licence) the pu's you seek will once again flow freely out of the monsters butts.
Thanks.

Anna, i slowed down the monster pu a little and dis-armed invasion spree because of the lag. Its only temporary.
Here is basically what happened in the 169 patch on did on server a few days ago. I replaced my Monster Artificial Intellegence (AI) Controller code with Epic's original code. Boy was that a mistake, The monsters are confused and not performing correctly, this is why the server has been easy lately, stupide monsters stuck in loops. This is why the server CPU and Player pings are skyrocketing at higher waves. As you know, hundreds of monsters come out at highers waves. I run two mutators to push these monsters out like madness, but since their code sux, they are lagging the game.
Yesterday, Vaptor and I spent the day re-writing a new Monster AI Controller. I tested it and it seems to work fine. I was going to patch server last night but a couple of kids in game/forum pissed me off and distracted my server update. I should be patching server real soon, so please hang in there. Once I patch server i will resume full throttle on powerups.
By the way, speaking of powerups, did you know that there are 58 powerups? Take 58 powerups x 16 players x 3 can hold, it comes out to be around 2, 800 powerups per game if everyone was to hold 3 of ech type. because monster controller is causing lag, i reduced it to 1 drop per monster than 2.
Things will be normal soon, thats if i dont have to babysit teenagers who keep trying my patients.
