Ben Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Typhy on September 07, 2002, 08:21:07 am Another reason I hate Rob's host, you can expect teams like 3v8 etc. Rob, go to server options in the Rogue Spear options, and you can change it to allow more than 8 people on a team.

Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Mr. Lothario on September 07, 2002, 02:53:13 pm There's no reason to bitch about uneven teams if the game is balanced. If the small team is winning, or is at least holding its own, then the game's fair. I've played in games where there was a team of three who was winning 95% of the time, and after every game, people would complain that there needs to be more people on that team. ???
On the other hand, I've played on Rob's host against a team of two who is losing far more often than they're winning, and Rob rarely boosts the losing team. ::shrug:: If a small team is in the interest of game balance (or fun), I'm all for it. Otherwise, it's just boring. Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: electronicjo on September 07, 2002, 09:32:54 pm Usually, when you see teams unbalanced like that, even if they're losing, sometimes it's more like buddies versus the world.
Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: |MP|Buccaneer on September 08, 2002, 01:31:49 am If the skill is balanced, then numbers shouldn't matter. I'm sure we've all seen 3 guys from the same clan beating up on 8 other guys.
The one that bothers me is when you have 8 vs 2 and the 2 haven't won a single game, or even getting kills. That's just a race to kill them first. It's a snoze. Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Typhy on September 08, 2002, 03:07:31 am The thing is how Rob does it, not what he does, admittable, he wins about a third of the time. - The thing though, is how he does it, you can expect Rob to move about 5 feet each game, and that is to his camping spot to set his C4, all he does is camp.
Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Jeb on September 08, 2002, 04:10:01 am he doens't always camp. i played a few hours on his host lastnight and he used under 3 times. Not to mention the 4vrs12 teams were fair.
Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Typhy on September 08, 2002, 06:01:31 am Well, it's obviously that some of you out there like Rob, but I am not alone in hating Rob, many others do, and there is no point on continuously arguing over it, just let it go, I won't enter in on this like this in the future, I sugest that those who agree with me do the same.
Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Jeb on September 08, 2002, 10:29:08 am No one is forcing anyone to join his host, i mean shit i'd have just as much fun going 1v1 against rob.
it seems like your sugesting that people start to hate rob in the fassion of so many anti rapid campains. But at least rob has the ablities to say that people hate him cause he "PWNS". Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Mr. Lothario on September 08, 2002, 12:26:23 pm Yeah, Rob camps a fair bit. But there's three things in his favor: first, he's very, very good at "demolition sniping" (Hehehe, I love that term). There's nothing worse than someone who camps BADLY. You know, that guy in the Met who's the last one alive and is crouching in one of the potted plants in the ass-end of the level where nobody goes. Rob camps very, very well.
Second, even when he's not camping, he has quite a lot of skill. He doesn't have to camp to play. He just enjoys camping, albeit more than any human being should. Third, when you're up against Rob, you just run behind someone and well back from them. When they blow up, charge in and kill Rob. Rob is far from unbeatable in camper mode. You just need to take reasonable precautions, and learn where Rob's spots are. He's a really tough opponent, no doubt of that. So study hard and learn to defeat him. Or, just don't play on his host. Either way works. Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Typhy on September 08, 2002, 05:52:41 pm Just have to comment on this. Jeb, the reason that I hate Rob is not because he hates Rapid, or even because he camps. Rob and I got along fine back when we played RSD, after the |?K| vs BoW ( OoA ) cb, I guess he was very frusterated that we beat him, and put my whole clan on ignore. 5150 and Rapid were the ones in the cb, I've heard from everyone who was there that nothing went wrong in the cb, just a lot of shit talking ( Go figure that zak was there ). - The next day me and my whole clan were on ignore, as a result of nothing. From this point on, I've considered Rob a dumbass.
Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: (SiX)Ben on September 09, 2002, 12:19:50 am Typhy, why is it everyone hates AK because a cb AK won years before. Nobody but AK thinks they are hated because cb's. "Yah, KoS hates AK cuz AK beat them that... once... a couple years back... and same with (unt.. and OoA... It's the reason for all hate. It's because AK used to be good." That's how you sound to everyone right now. No, it's just the asses in AK that pisses people off.
Ben P.S. I just know you're gonna respond saying "No, we beat them this year".. Think about the fucking point... Not in terms of cb's, in terms of why AK is hated... Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Typhy on September 09, 2002, 01:14:44 am Well Ben, if that is not the case, then Rob has no excuse, and is just a total asshole. - Please explain to me how that happened right after the cb, and why I was put on ignore when I hadn't talked to him for weeks.
Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: (SiX)Ben on September 09, 2002, 03:06:29 am Well, can you explain to me why Rapid put me on ignore when I did diddley shit? I talked to him once and was nice. We played... Blah Blah... I was nice as fuck. Then I was ignored. There was no reason at the time. I don't know Rob personally nor the situation, so no, I can't. Have you ever even asked him before you automatically hate him... You might be ignored on gr but there are other ways to ask...
Ben Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Typhy on September 09, 2002, 03:11:26 am Well, perhaps Rapid can explain that to you, I'm not Rapid, and I don't know everything. - Nice dodging around my question. And Yes, I did get him to take me off of ignore for about 2 minutes and asked him, all he said was "Your clan disrespected me".
Title: Re:Why can't i host over 8 players on a team? Post by: Brain on September 09, 2002, 07:02:58 am the original point was answered long ago, and i'll be damned if this turns into another AK Vs. the world thread
