"BLINK-BLINK-BLINK-BLINK-BLINK"
Funny 6 pages and no word from Zero if he'll try anything you mentioned, like I said your better off adressing these issues one at a time in a separate thread for each of them instead of trying the all eggs in one basket aproach.

Edit: Valve AND Zero would find a way to screw up a steel ball.
I have never seen any other server that used to be so much fun to play on just get so properly rammed into the ground by one person's lazyness, incompetence and inability to grasp how to properly run a server.
simply because I DONT WANT TO READ A FUCKING BOOK on changes =D
but in all seriousness. Complaining, at this moment in time isnt the greatest thing, seeing as how zero is the only one who is working on the servers, the last thing ID want to do his bog him down with a shit ton of problems when i could simply say here is A problem, once its fixed here is another.
i could see how this can be extremely over whelming.
as for the all talk issue holy, im sure that once and if we do, get a 31-34 player slot. it wouldn't be as bad, we would have more regulars on and less new noobs.
i miss the old ZM )=
i like zm as it is now actually. it's all balanced. and the big server's completely fine. just remove every single escape map and put them in a second (escape only) server and you're golden. noblock stays off, alltalk can stay off (a version of the old zombie talk would be great, you know, dead people can talk to humans but live zombies can only talk to live zombies)
Nah its too TF2 like, max you'll get one or two humans as a zombie and vice versa
back in the old days a single fast zombie could make a difference for his team and own like no other if he was good, where as in tf2 unless your part of a full frontal assault you'll get owned by some idiot with a medic behind him
Althought in old zm it actually balanced out. a good player could own the entire team as a fast zombie if the humans werent paying attention (which I frequently did) however if they WERE the human team could hold off against the whole zombie team even if it was only about a small group of 4 or 5 people, it balanced out like on no other server.
That's why I liked the zm server so much back in the day. most zm servers were and probably still are unlimited ammo servers where you pretty much become a paper target with little chance to strike back at the humans as a zombie or its a server like ours just with crappy classes
personally I'd like to see the old zm come back as a server with a capacity of 30 with no reserved slot bullshit
making it first come first servered server since it keeps the good players in circulation and makes the bad ones feel unwelcome and known amogst the good regulars forcing them out and making the server stronger
and to have no block off for all escape maps since it would slow the zombies down and force the human team to work together to even survive
its either that or a vip server like that for all of us old school zm players who actually like to kick ass rather than be cannon fodder for the team like in tf2.
I mean hell if you dont beleve what I said above tf2 just try and do a gungame server in it and own 4 people like I do in gg with a good gun. theres a reason why no ones ever done that and its NOT because of valves constant fiddling with it.

kav, stop bringing tf2 up. i understand that you think it blows. seems like you think everything blows. the only main problem w/ zm i see, is that people find too late that the team needs different zombie classes (deformed is the most often-needed one)
you and your constant bitching (always seems to come back to tf2) aren't going to amount to shit
i dont think my opinion should speak for the entire server, thats why i made this thread to try and express my opinion on what i see wrong. I'm probably not the only 1 with idea's on trying to make the server better, but atleast i try. Zer0 could do what he wants with his servers and im not going to hold it against him if he doesn't wanna change anything. I may not like it, but ima deal with it. If i dont like it enough to play, ill play in a different zm server.
Don't start a flame war anyone, this thread is for idea's and how to make the server better.
