Frnksnbns: I don't appreciate being called a liar, especially from someone who is only trying to shoot down our efforts at stopping (ME)=KING and wake up the Bungie crew. Try offering something constructive for a change instead of negating everything we have to say.

In other news, I guess it would also be a breach of the Halo EULA to create and distribute a client-side hack to disable friendly fire. Aww... Funny things happen when people are left to their own devices, eh?


I didn't call you a liar, but that doesnt make you correct.

First off, frankbns is wrong.

The ban got changed from increasing amounts, to permenant or at the least a few months.

Secondly, people have done things. Node himself has badgered microsoft, whom totally fobbed him off (big suprise there then). Myself and another have repeatedly tried various contact points at bungie, as we figured that was the best place to get microsoft to do something about it.

Bungie dont care either. Actually, I got fobbed off by a few mods, microsoft style. Nice to know your doing your jobs well.

Nothing can be done. Its puzzling, as why keep paying for these servers and then not care about them enough to do a 5 minute job that would eliminate these tkers.

Sidenote:

Ive just seen the humpday challenge thread has been locked without reason.

Seriously, whichever mod did that needs to get a life, or just stopped from being a mini hitler on a power trip.

No flaming, no spam, it was about halo PC, wtf? At least give them a reason why it was closed.

Tell you what, why dont you just close the maw altogether, the only reason you leave it open is because it gives you/microsoft a lot less tech support to deal with.


Please tell me Mr. B (notice how I can spell you name correctly) where you are getting your information about the change in ban duration on Bungie. According to what you're saying, Node320 wouldnt be able to play, he'd be permanently banned, or at least for a few months right?

Whoops.

The Bungie ban is what it is and always has been- temporary. But I am all ears if you have hard information stating otherwise from Bungie. I'm just relying on the information I have gathered after playing Halo PC for a few years.

Screw it. Whichever tards run BUNGIE-CTF* servers are second rate, about as clued in to how a server should be run as your typical New001 everything-but-the-kitchen-sink-hw-inf-grenades stuff. Halo pisses me off more and more, and tonight's BS with The Driver and MasterCheap leading a 10-4 stacked team just made me wanna puke. BUNGIE servers are hopelessly FUBAR and I want to personally congratulate the chump who set them up on being a complete idiot. This has been the most stressfull 3 months of my online experiences. Get bent. See you in GNU+Linux and/or BSD land, where the developers treat you like a human being and not like a walking wallet. Bungie sucks.


Unfortunately, you are pretty much correct, but your attitude sucks. Those of us who played well before noobs like ME KING came along have grown to love the game (obsession?) and won't just give up.

Last night, some dude came into the game, and immediately starting shooting teamates in shees...I spent the next 15 minutes TKing him and quiting. It pissed him off enough to switch sides and stop his nonsense. Sadly, that's the only real solution without a voting system.

Yes, Halo PC/Mac players have been foresaken, but that happened a long time ago. We have to deal with it, because 1.07 is the end of the road for us.

Edit: oh yeah, just wanted to say I do not think there will ever be another Halo game released on the PC, I'm sure M$ has made it so that Halo is Xbox only...

And let me ask the die hards: would you want to support Bungie at this point?

Hey I've been looking for (ME)=KING lately to give him some more abuse. I haven't seen him lately. Has anyone seen him lately? Maybe someone's been on there doing some banning of Tkers. If node got sent off after only 1 or 2 TKs like he said their may be an silent admin in there doing some cleaning.

Look. We all know what's happeneing so why don't we get a petition or something to turn FF off Bungie and EU-Bungie Servers permanantly. Simple as that. People such as (ME)=King and other "get off after 4" TKers constantly use and exploit the Friendly Fire and it virtually sucks the fun out of the game. I just leave and go to another server. But hey, what's that over there? Another TKer? I move on. Almost every good server now has a "get off after 4" TKer. We must ban together and do something about this.


there otta be a TK limit, like, if you TK up to a limit, than your permanatley banned from the game session
thing is, many people out there are idiots, unlike you me and only so many others, and wont stop idiotic things, like TKing.

why cant they just play a game the right way?

ive never known a HPC TK expieriance.

Hi, I'm new here but I've been playing Halo PC online for over 3 years now (I remember when he used to call himself ME instead of ME=KING!).

He has been patient and methodical in ruining Bungie servers for over TWO years. But no one is going to sit thru getting spawn-killed EVERY time they get on a server.

I' just like to point out that it's highly likely that ME=KING ONLY DOES THIS BECAUSE HE LIKES TO WASTE OTHER PEOPLE'S TIME. He's probably laughing his head off thinking someone is wasting their time TKing him. Also, he's been playing for over 2 years, do you really think you'd be trying to TK him back for so long? Frankly, it's easier just to dodge him than kill him as he has crap aim (seriously. The A and D keys will stop him from even taking down your shields).

Oh yes. Hey I've been looking for (ME)=KING lately to give him some more abuse. I haven't seen him lately. Has anyone seen him lately? Maybe someone's been on there doing some banning of Tkers.

He's still around. Unfortunately.

The thing is, it's easy enough to avoid getting tk'ed in the first place. Let's face it, TKers are mostly crap, which is why they TK in the first place. Now they start with pistol and AR, but they have such high pings mostly that they can't hit a barn door if it fell on their head (well, if it fell from more than 5 meters). They don't have the patience to run for a rl or rod, so just run past them. I remember times when I just ran past TKers with the flag and scored, then just laughed in their faces at their frankly rubbish attempts to kill me. Also, it's 4 TK's a round. You can kill them a couple of times and get away with it, just be careful of using nades. Oh, and n0d3z320, it's a shame if you think it's unplayable cause of some stupid TKers, but as you said, you don't need to put up with this crap. (However if you ever find ME=KING I'll lend you my beating stick. It's just a bit too large for some places, but I'm sure you can use enough force ^^)

The bottom line is it don't matter if your tk'ing them or trying to run around them, they are still -blam!- ing up the game. I don't want to spend time trying to avoid a dedicated tk'er. That is really what they are after. Taking their teammates attention off of the game. Two options....leave and find another server or -blam!- em at their own game.

I sent an email, and suggested that they do a trial period of non ff, or on some of the servers only to see if 'public opinion' was good. Sounds interesting, so Halo for PC is not finished?!FTW

Just curious, but how have you been playing Halo PC for "over 4 years" when the game was released in late 2003?

If you guys complain and complain until Bungie disables FF, you will have ruined a great game for people who have been enjoying it for a lot longer than you.

Turning off FF is not the solution.

email sent in favor of NOT disabling FF, sorry guys but you are making a huge mistake...

Excellent node. I really appreciate what you have been doing for us all.

Frnk: Were you hired in any way by the (ME)= people to actively saboptage our efforts to stop them? Nothing persnonal, just curious.


BTW:

An update:

(ME)=Moron and (ME)=Swifto (formerly Swiftoak) are also TKers.

I invented a time machine and traveled back in time for a year and a bit just to play more Halo PC.

(Kidding, actually I just lose track of time easily when playing halo)
