Would be great if they fixed my sign in problem… and what’s with the date bub :tongue:? 11/8/14?? If so sign me up.


(Glottis-3D) #3

actually the only right way to right Dates is
YYYY-MM-DD
because in this case they are sorted correctly (sequentially) by name

You’re quite correct, this is my prime gaming time during the week, Sunday is no good because too busy getting stuff sorted for the next week ahead.

Gather was fun this weekend… Well not really I got my asses kicked haha and it was very frustrating but other then that it was cool to hang out with everyone.

First off nothing below is an excuse; I played very bad yesterday and or didnt feel like I could hit or help my team in anyway… That being said I did see and feel some oddities:

Toomic do you have some sort of speed boost or lag thingy going on? Went you were shotgun you would literally teleport across my screen and some times it would be a random speed boost… I had you lined up a few times with both my sniper and an SMG and you would just appear, teleport away or speed boost around me…

Another few things I saw or felt were insta death… MrFunky is the one that stick out most in my mind… On Terminal he was up in the small balcony and I was running toward that plant when I saw him pop out and I raised my gun and bam dead… I didnt ever get a shot off and I figured someone was up there…

After my crap AIM I decided to go medic and help out rather then shoot and that seemed almost worse… The slow weapon switch and the speed of people just popping out of every little corner and 1 second kills was to much for me.

Side Note: I did turn my SLI on for this gather and that could have been part of my problem… It just felt super odd to me… But then again going against good players on a new patch with 120 - 170 ping could have also been the problem… :smiley:

Edit: The pauses and freezes didnt help either
Also Potty as a heavy should be BAN :wink:
-He gets that and I cant play arty :-p

Yup, scenarios you describe are mostly due to high ping. It basically means that the server decided you are dead, before it bothered to send you the information that you are being shot at : )


(Toomic) #16

I love me some long jump + Wall hop combos, if that’s what you’re talking about :stuck_out_tongue:


(spookify) #17

I know you like that and I can tell when you do it… This was something different you were literally skipping across my screen. Like Szakalot said he must have been do to my ping.

I did ok as medic though! :frowning:

I did say no classes were restricted last night. Just wanted some hard core evidence some classes are more useless than others (Pheonix vs arty is never gunna be a nice match)

Good games everyone <3

Awww I didnt hear the “No” Class Restrictions last night…

If you do not land a HS with Arty then a Phoenix could down you…

It’s a bit difficult for me to plan in advance so I ended up turning up on the off chance and then going spec. As a result of that, I have to say, the first thing that I noticed was that there didn’t appear to be any tactics in place at all, or if there were, they didn’t work. When I got on at the end, we were given tactics, but they were made up on the spot.

My suggestion therefore, is that since these gathers are known in advance, would it be possible to put down names on a monday for instance, nominate a captain for each team on a wednesday, then have the gather on a saturday or sunday with the captain having had a chance to draw up some tactics. With the server being free (and I understand certainly personally that people may not be able to commit) you could then have a mini gather an hour before kick off to give everyone a chance to listen to the tactics and maybe have a walkthrough. Alternatively you could do it on another day of the week if people were available?
