Friendly Fire in the Library - Server Settings

Post by Grenadiac »

There have been some complaints about the server settings on the library - I haven't really messed with the settings yet, so they haven't been adjusted for the nuke.

Please give your opinion here.

OMFG! What a bunch of wussies!

"Disable FF" my ass! Look, if you're too damn lousy a shot to be able to deal with FF, go back to SP and practice. You people just need to stop using the nuke like it was a plain rocket.

Try this:
(note the brackets indicated that he is talking to HIS team only)

[Coolplayer]: hey guys I got the nuke and am ready up top, every1 get out of main room

OR

[Coolplayer]: hey guys I got the nuke and am ready up top, every1 stay clear of red base then rush after explosion.

Seriously, I've been on a couple times, it's like playing with a bunch of children. They just want to run around firing nukes. I, personally, would like to see some REAL PLAYING on the server - it's a waste of a good map if all you're going to do is dick around.

You're NOT 'guaranteed' (or however the first guy butchered the spelling) at least two tks when you fire the nuke - just don't be a cock biting fucktard. Let your guys get clear, fire it into the enemy base, just don't be a moron. It's not hard, folks - you have billions of neurons, I'm sure they're all just dying to be put to some use.

So, to summarize:

* The overwhelming vote to disable FF simply proves that players here are cowardly childish wannabes (see next entry and apply it to your use of ALL weapons). Seriously, people, it's people like you who think it's fun to cheat online - you don't want a challenge, you want a light show.

* The only people ' gaurrenteed to get atleast 2 tk's with a nuke launch' are ten-year olds who don't understand the concept of holding the gun, in your hand, and NOT FIRING UNTIL IT'S SAFE. I know, it's a difficult concept for many folks out there, but with a lot of practice and the constant threat of being auto-banned, you might graduate to at least a sixth-grade level at playing Halo PC online.

EDIT: Oh, and yes, I know that accidents happen. It's very likely that there will be accidental teamkills even if you take precautions. WELCOME TO REALITY (heh, sort of - you know what I mean). It is part of the balancing of that weapon that it kills friend as well as foe. Don't be pricks and take the easy way out - try using some (warning, unfamiliar word ahead): STRATEGY. Again, I know, who do I think I'm taking to, intelligent human beings? Of course not. It's silly, I know, to tax your already overburdened brains ([Typicalplayer]:but it says library. . .where are the books?) with such grand concepts as TRYING not to shoot your teammates, but I figured it was worth a shot.

Just CmA here, though - yes, accidents happen. DEAL WITH IT. As long as you honestly TRIED to avoid killing your teammates, and apologize afterwards, everything's cool.
Tucker, I think he means a pacifier.
