Hell yah I love the challenge. The next step is to remove ALL the ssr maps in my opinion. I just haven't been playing in a while, but before I took my break I noticed the challenge increase.

yes, joey has definitely made it harder.. lol I love it now :D

The next step I think should be taken is to make the miniSSR PU MUCH less seldom appear, lower the appearance of instagib weapons like wand and ESSR to such a deep rarity that it becomes legendary. :P I'm fine with the way things are in terms of wand and ESSR.. but this is the scenario I can't stand---

3+ MiniSSR's in map, 3 ESSRs and 4 Wands. :P
IMHO, I think there are still too many miniSSRs appearing in most waves.

challenge all the way for me for sure even though it makes me curse like a trooper (no pun intended there Joey :P ) anyway i would just like to see more of anything powerfull to aid us as i think its only fair we get some kind of chance to get points of some sort without higher levellers taking every single kill in a million mile radius .. but i am glad to be back in the land of crazy mofos and have another crazy map to add to the server :)

Wonderfull work gotta love it for real :)

Kind Regards From the Magi

sain:

mini ssr maybe be frequent and such, but now its not that great of a weapon. i got to use it last night since the patch yesterday...i would have to say its probably as strong as a lil lady now, which means its not bad, but not all that good either. lil lady is probably better since that can shoot straight without so much "push" it has. it has splash damage which is very helpful on the army guy waves. plus, one can self heal from it. seriously, noone should be screaming for that pu again, its just not that great.

server difficulty:

holy hell it has become harder! i suppose the only way it is is that monsters cause so much more damage per shot even on earlier waves. yes, i love the extra challenge, without a doubt! but my concern comes with lower levels and how they can't last at all now..i am sure it is highly frustrating.

i do think the monster autoleveling when a 260+ player is still a little rediculous. dave, scion, chuckles, gaz, and some others watched me on two maps late last night as the last person. one map it was me versus two fury titans, warlord, and two gasbags and they took forever. i died from dumb fury titan splash damage heat..but i shot them eternally (15 mins+) with a fully powered enhanced ssr and the titans health was still in the green as seen from awareness. no vorpal was on the gun..

a map later i got enhanced ssr again, this time i made sure it had a vorpal, and i am glad i did for one wave in particular. by wave 16 i had +10 damage and 3 rages on the gun, vorpal and other stuff. i was the last with 12 queens and a couple other enemies scattered around. i was shooting queens for like 10-15 minutes, and not once did any of their healths go into the yellow. any and all kills were a vorpal effect instagib. there is challenging and cool and fun aspect to them being harder, but i think this kind of scenario bores the heck out of the dead, waiting people who start voting after awhile..and just is annoying to the high level.

i still love how hard things are now, i won't contest that! but this supering of enemies when a person is over level 260 just is..funky :P

Maybe there should be a "boss monster" that appears when one player is alive, and his level is above 250. All the other monsters go away!

Saves time, but also gives a really bad monster to defeat. A supermonster? Level 500? LOL!

hmm elite titan..it should perhaps be made of diamond! it would have qualities of being +8 reflection (beam weapons be very weak against it), and an already strong damage reduction to more concussive weapons. i know the metal titan can be tough, as well as the two "shiny" looking titans when they appear in earlier waves when weapons aren't good for most yet.

that predator lately has been such a pain in the butt! almost impossible to kill on early waves if it stays invisible...where telefragging is the only way to get it..which is harder to do than with an elite soldier since thet predator moves! funfun, though :}

just wonder a highlevler "think" about that. want know when the first recognices this fact! thats why im allways leavin now when a 250+ is on server.. it makes no fun anymore... nothing against highlevlers, its only im sick of one-man-shows and no chances for good games cause no lower-leveld get much points now to level up. all highlevlers do have their points save, but the lower need now too long to level. i played like 30 maps and i "earned" only like 12.000 cause most crashed, or we loose cause a +250 was there and i couldnt get good weps or was too busy to try to give lowers some good weps so they could score more, or i left and me was told later they didnt won... im lookin to the gamemonitor more often now, and its really boring to see allways the same:
1. cad, draeg, cray 8-1x.xxx points
2. anyone 1000. points
3. anyone 800 points
4. anyone 500 points
etc....
frustrating?

i dont care about highscores, or loosing or winning a map, but if 90% of chances to win a map is gone when a highlevler comes in and lowlever cant do anything now than hide to keep the highest-lowest-level down....
and then all is over again and again in lower waves.... well...
frustrating?

i see the flames coming now, but wait some days, in moment the lower find it funny to see all their heroes getting all pointz, but if they grow up a bit and see how hard it is to get same powers or see how senseless it is to play that much to get same highlevelrankin then we will see how many stay...

frustrating?
i think all good and old players who said they leave and dont play anymore didnt say the complete truth about why they left, i think this "frustrating" was one reason too...
