Regarding: Combine committing suicide

Post by Threepwood »

sent this to nick, didn't reply so I'm putting it here
Everyday I see combines committing suicide when an ending; that gives themselves no chance of survival is picked by the "winning" rebel or rebels. In doing so the rebel is not rewarded with points for a frag e.g.

I see this behavior as an abuse to the points-shop system that you've created; If you play combine you should accept that you failed to kill the rebels via traps and let the rebel be rewarded for surviving IF the rebel choose an (from the combine perspective) "unfair" ending.

I would want to hear your opinions about this issue.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.



yours sincerely,

Threepwood.

I fucking hate it so much, should be a rule OR combines should have the kill command disabled.
上手ですか?

A big issue. The kill cmd is already blocked in the cheat server. Players should get their points that they deserve and not be cheated out.

Well few days ago when Nick was on he saw that and he told ppl there on mic said if you don't play fair you shouldn't be even playing there.
So I have been working on telling people when they do it.
Also I'm working on myself try not to do that lol My fingers are so used to it xD
Also I'm keeping my eyes on combines who is afk for more than a round.
When I see them I'm switching them to spec so in that case they won't get points by just sitting there.
I hope more people can focus on just having fun there but some people still focus on points and that's a reality so us admins just have to watch players much more carefully.

Ok, if all I see is people trying to bypass the system, permbans are being issued or at least a ban from the combine team. If you can't play the game correctly, you don't belong here. It's as simple as that. All admins please report players to me if a player keeps bypassing.
