@nard
as much i know the "autokickhighpingerstool.exe" is still an admin-thing,
the left mousebutton and the finger which push it when the cursor is on your name....
and please read my post about pings, looks like some didnt get it....
oh and btw "killbox", is it killing monsters too??? (this onlsaught-tank-wars-map need this, fkn luzi allways down there...!)

@angeldust
like with the pings its not allways a "must-be", it "can", and like i said in my post before noone talked about lag in that map (ok maybe they all were busy to explain license the what and why...), but lag isnt the point of the topic.

@license
it changes nothing. a glitch is a glitch. if players "go" there by accident
or wilfull it "can" cause lag and errors and make monsters running around
like blind ones or make them shooting senseless around. so if this happens
one time, and you get out of the glitch, it doesnt matter if that happens in wave 1 or wave 20, in that case angel is right, it is too late and it "can" lag us and/or throw us errors the rest of the map...

looks like you never had that problem with disapearing wepaons or the weaponswitchbug witch causes you to lose weapon/wop.
if the only way to get out of glitch is to suicide, i would do it when i dont need to fear the loss of a good weapon. many know this problem happens often in the last 4-5 waves, so i wouldnt do that when i glitch by accident and could help save the 1000exp when i had the "luck" to be last player in one of the last waves. think about that, i bet you will have many friends when you have a wand or a lilly and you fall in a glitch and you could finish the wave but only cause of a strictly server-rule you type suicide and map ends...
i remember me joining a map in wave 19, it was chaos, no wop, many negatives, no time to share wops/pus. and then, hell, in wave 20 all died in first 10 seconds cause of nukes and wands and i as last player ghostet with no pus/any good wop into a glitch... all i could do was say "sorry" and i runned out...and noone moaned about it


rules are rules, in real life and in unreal, but like in reallife you sometimes need to bend the rules.
if someone loves to go into glitches all the time, kick or bann.
if its like "sh#t happens" (not wordly translated, its here the same...)
then bend the rules a bit.
"we all only cook with water", wordly translated german phrase, or, if you want: sometimes things are not as bad as they seem (AND I MEAN <SOMETIMES> AND NOT ALLWAYS!)

just relax and play

CRAPCAN!!

Post by SirBeast » Mon Mar 26, 2007 8:04 am

Yeah, whatever map that is with the waterfall needs crapcanned because of all the glitches it has. I was quite PO'd when I fell into the waterfall then under the map, then (A) Ghost would not move me ANYWHERE, much less out of the glitch, and (B) for some reason I could not TL out out of the glitch, even though I shot it straight up nearly a dozen times. So, I had to suicide myself totally dead, and in the process lost a chest, a key, a Triple Enhanced, and a Lightning Rod. Very frustrating, and it needs to go.
I will consistently sacrifice political correctness for an attempt at humor. If ya can't deal, then ya need ta stop being ign'ant.

Even though it wouldn't matter you got out of the glitch, being in there prevents the need for defensive stats and basically gives you "free kills", Instead of fighting the wave off, its just pick off from down under.

Is this that map Ancient ruins of Arcania. If it is, it is a well made map and looks great. All it needs are a few tweaks around the water fall

yes, i won't be forgetting that map for some time. a lot of things were going wrong. the first sign of trouble was when i first came in and ortega was offering me the lady from the chest that was opened. so we go to a rocky spot away from most enemies and he asks if i got lady...i didn't. then he's like..wtf. then he tosses me the wand. again, i didn't get it, and he was really not pleased and i was feeling badly, as if two great weapons were lost because of me. anyways, i ask if there were any infs and he tosses me his 2 before shortly leaving the map. this was around wave 10 i believe...

then wave 18 comes, and i am using the usual mp5. about a few minutes in the game, a wand appears by me and ghosts me. oddly, my ghost starts flying up into air a good height and towards one corner of the map. as soon as i spawn, i see the message "you got the magic wand of..(i forget what type it was)" and i haven't used a summon the whole map. aside from this surprise, i was also then falling down to the bottom of the map...a very very long drop. as soon as i land down i gold the wand and start adding the pus to it before i look up and think to myself.."how the heck am i going to hit anything!?" i looked up and saw the map rediculously far away, so since i ghosted, i didn't want to take the chance to lose the wand just yet since i could do something to help with most people already dead. so by the help of those on voice chat, they guided me to shoot at things above until it was safer. then yes, i transed up, and it required perfect transing which is not so easy for full gravity and so high a distance. the rest of the map i used the wand and did not glitch, as it were.

seriously, that map needs some stitching done :P

I knew it was the map. I fell over the water fall once and just said who cares and my dinner was almost done. I knew it had nothing to do with you. My voice chat didn't work either I couldnt hear anyone. Just a bad map for me i guess.
Later all!

Everyone hates a RAT, so unless they player glitches underneath the map on purpose, for more than 1 wave. It was an accident, shit happens, so relax :partyman: its only game
