WOW look at all the bashing well guess what? There is no such thing as bad press! I'm seeing alot of new people on the server that,s great. Some have already downloaded the new maps and said they like them. Keep up the good work Basher's!
This -blam!- is funny!
Anyway I did give it a go for about 5-6 maps.
Speed - IMO too fast. Near vehicle speed which makes the following obsolete:
Pistol and sniper: near impossible to nail down the lead.
Hogs and ghosts: You can run almost as fast so why bother.
The only useful vehicles are shees and tanks, the best option is heavy on foot.
The ports are marked clearly with three med packs. Typically, the port take you up the the top of map with some powerups and vehicles, or halfway across the map for quick getaways with the flag. Would take time to learn kinda like Chiron TL-34.
Typical modded server in that there are tons of vehicles and heavies strew about. The maps are balanced in that each side has all this in the same place. The shades seem to be there to make sure that tanks and shees can be controlled because they are two shot kills on anything.
The AFK kick seems to work. It didn't when I tested but they said sidewinder was glitched and it doesn't work there, but it looks like it worked on other players on other maps. It would have been nice if this mod was sent to Sawnose years ago, he may have been able to sneak it into one of the updates.
Auto-balance when it activated worked by switching players if there was a difference of two or more. Interestingly, this revealed the most damaging evidence. When the auto-balance activated one of the {BB} guys got switched. He immediately switched back and the other that got switched quit, another joined and we were right back to 6 on 3. Then the {BB} guys started asking players to switch and even the teams! So they weren't really interested in balancing the teams. They wanted to stay on the side that was consistently winning 5-0, the side that had the players that knew exactly where the ports were and the best way to cap the flag. In addition, after capping a flag or winning a match they would say "All too easy". Seriously?! You think your a badass for winning against a team that does not know the ports as well as you?! Pathetic.
I owe Tempus an apology. Sorry dude!
