Please make 3 map campaigns only!

(Jahuu) #1

It just sucks when there are 6 or 10 map campaigns going on in the net. After 2 or 3 matches everyone has maxed out their skills. And it just sucks playing covop after that, because:

1.Every field operative recoqnises you immideatly.
2.Every medic is impossible to kill with sniper: It takes some 4 shots to body to get them.
3.Everyone has battlesense at 4 and therefore need no mine-spotters.
4.Everyone has battle sense of 3 and have +15 health and a few medics on their team so you need many shots to kill them, especially frustrating with sten.

So, please in the name of god, make the following server:

-Max lives on.
-Playing Shrub, bani or both.
-FF on.
-Only 3 maps and then XP reset!!!

Even better, play on Stopwatch servers, then it really is about teamwork and not XP. Even better still, play on the Stopwatch server in my sig which now runs ETpro with XP locked.

So… why don’t you make a server? Most are under 100 bucks a month. Then you can do whatever you want. :smiley:

I don’t mind there being 6-10 map campaigns, gives noobs a chance to get major :wink:

However, I’d like to be able to see if it’s a standard or custumized campaign running in the server browser. And it should also show what mods are running on the server. Imho. To be included in THE OFFICIAL PATCH. Plz :smiley:

Two of my servers are set to that format:

^3[^4ND80^3]^4Dennis’s ^3Den ^4of ^3Sin|57ms|207.44.182.7:27962

^3[^4ND80^3]^4Notre ^3Dame|66ms|64.246.52.106:27966

See, all you had to do was try out every one of ND80’s servers, after all, ND80 has every combination possible in the world of ET :slight_smile: :clap: :banana:

Keep it up ND80 :smiley:

It’s even worse on shrub servers. Shrub has an (optional) setting to allow anybody with battlesense4 to spot mines through binocs (and get points for it). That completely stops Allies from from needing Coverts on oasis or radar.

Shrub makes high-XP campaigns harder for Coverts in another way: they removed the non-overheating Sten upgrade. On regular servers with super-long campaigns, you can get HeavyWeapons2 and then receive a much stronger Sten. Shrub “fixed” this, weakening the Covert class.

I think that Coverts should be given better high-level powers, so they can still compete with the big boys. I also think that Signals4, enemy recognition, should be removed (instead, the fieldop should need to upgrade ammo packs in two stages, one for cheaper packs and one for mega packs)

I think the Shrub mod is going too far with things going over from one class to the other,its becoming DUMB!!

Medic with Flak jacket is taking the #*@#

Agree with you fully

The Shrub mod is not dumb in any possible meaning of the word.

He has spent a lot of his time developing a mod to further enhance game play for ET. The options that you mentioned are fully configurable (other than the sten overheating) and it is up to server admins to set them they way they see fit and want their servers run. The mod is relatively new and I know server admins like myself are still experimenting with different settings to find the right mix. Cvars like the level carrying over may not be liked by all , but many others enjoy them. That doesnt mean that admins might not make changes based on players input, but to suggest that the mod is ‘dumb’ is absurd. The ET (and RTCW) community should be thankful that we have people like Shrub and Bani among others that have the knowledge and willingness to improve the game. This is especially true in ET as it evident that any future improvements, removal of bugs, etc will be left to the modders and not done by SD or Activision.

Nothing says you have to play on a Shrub, Bani or any other mod server if you dont want to. There are plenty of ET servers out there that run just the default version of ET.

I like six map servers because in the summer I have time to play all day, but otherwise I like three. Anything over six is definately excessive.

I haven’t done any server searching in a little while, because I play on favorites, but when I did, mostly everything was three map and I had trouble finding six.

But really, if you don’t like Shrub or six map servers, just don’t use them.[/i]
