lol, The first time I joined the server and started playing on the opposite team there was : a molecule, a vagabond and a spidey, but I didn't bitch about it and I didn't ragequit, never to be seen again. You see, this community needs players who don't abandon it if they get killed a few times. We need people who continue playing even if they are 1-43 and patiently wait for changes to happen that will improve everybody's experience in the long run. If you really are that weak, noobish and mad, leave the server. We don't need whiny b*tches that cry how vagabond is so "easy" to play and that it should be banned. You gotta know your place on the foodchain. Only the strongest survive and get to be all-maxed.
I have to admit, and anyone that recognizes me will know, I agree with some of the sentiments of the OP.
And I'll never stop bitching about team stacking and over powered races. Never. It's just my nature.
But I also rarely quit because of it. And I do come back. I think it'd be better to make these balancing projects of Zero's a bit more public.
To have active feedback between both sides of development would improve many things.
I'd like to see the justification of crit-rates for something like Vagalion's blades.
I'd like to know what progress has been made for team-balancing.
I'd like to have the Man talk to me and let me know what is happening.
But despite this massive lack of response from powers, and just harsh response in game, I'll stick around. Maybe it'll get better?
Doubt it.
And whoever is saying that you need teleport and speed to get a gun and out of spawn before Vagabond finds you- no, you don't. It's easy.
Learn your keys. B, 1, 3. B, 4, 3. B, 6, 2. B, 6, 6. Or, start up your own listen server, set the money start to 16k, buy all your weapons and save your premades.
It's not hard to learn to be efficient in spawn. 3 seconds is enough time.
The moon is my goddess.
Yup, 100% agree with this. Also, unless you rebind your keys, F2 is binded to rebuy. If you get rushed round after round, that is, for sure, on you. Learn the keys, as LunaTick suggests, and you'd be fine even on round 1. Even faster and easier... bind a key to purchases. A primary, secondary, and armor can be bought with the push of a single button.
I agree that it's annoying and discouraging for noobs, but rushing has got to be one of the most basic and common playing styles across all games. If you won't make the (easy) adjustments to counter it... well, likely it's on you and you have no right to complain
WTF Pass, was this go around necroing as much shit as possible day?
I hit Brett right in the feels.
Meh, I was a little depressed today and sat down and actually read some of the forum posts for once. So yes, yes it was necro day for me. XD Sorry about that, I haven't actually been active in a forum for about 4 years and forgot that checking dates on shit is somewhat important. I'll cut back and be more careful what I choose to necro XD
