Press F3 to start


(Vengeance) #1

I think 1 of the most annoying things about this game is servers with - Press F3 to start. This really sucks as a lot of time 1 or 2 ppl never press it and the game takes forever to start.

Also you could get an idiot who thinks it funny not to press it and laugh at the comments ppl make.

Also end of the day will splash damage take any notice of ppl’s comments of the game since its free.

Anywayz enough of me whinging :slight_smile:

if you mean to mark yourself ready…

as with osp you can do a /readyteam in the console to ready your entire team

I wish I had known about the readyteam thing for my first game as opposed to my last!

Just as I had to leave for work, someone chat messaged it to everyone.

That in itself makes it useless surely?

If one person can ready an entire team? Whats the point in even having the ready thing? Just have a normal 20 second warmup or something…then into the game?

the function, and indeed a lot of the functionality of OSP (which is included in ET) is really aimed at clan wars, where ideally each member in the war ready’s up before the game and readyteam isn’t used.

i believe server admins can turn off the need to ready-up.

Yeah they can - they just don’t - and I wish they did :smiley:

Thx for the /readyteam makes things hell of a lot easier

I don’t know if it does or not, but the default pub config should not require readying up.

err buddy, F3 starts a demo. You have to type /ready. Duh?


(Noodles) #10

You can type /ready or push F3.

Put G_dowarmup"0" in the server.cfg and the F3 thing is gone… (If you manage a server :smiley: )

Servers do not have to have this enabled but if it is and not everybody is pressing F3 then you can type in /readyteam in console. :smiley:
