Project Reality Forums

i don't know about you guys, or how you feel about this, i'm a supporting member over at TG and spend alot of time on the TG server, you may or may not recognize me. In the past 2 weeks the Smacktard level has risen dramatically, there are more things that have started happening

Dolphin diving (reasonable but not realistic)
AT Spamming
Complete lack of Tactics
some do not care about the rest of their team, just self happiness (had a cobra squad on basrah 10 minutes ago, this guy by the name of Sabre_tooth_tigg, comes in, takes our cobra fly's around will not listen to the CO, and is finally kicked for it.)
completely ignoring the SL (this one makes me really red in the face)

i hope this next release seperates the dedicated from the smacktards. what are your guys' thoughts on this?

Same thing happened to me on a TG server. Went on a VOIP squad and what did I hear? Nothing... And on EJOD there was not a single person Rifleman, everyone was their precious limited kits.

I wouldn't mind if the Limited kits, were even more limited. Like 2-3 SAW men per team, 1 sniper and 1 marksman. Heavy AT is fine as is, but we still have yet to find out about the new ones. It just gets real tiresome to jump on a nice TG server and everone is waiting for their favorite limited kit...

yeah, this evening in a matter of four hours i reported 6 people, all of whom where kicked and banned

TG has a good reputation and good server, except the players are tards.

i once was in a squad and they booted me out of the squad because of this: ''F U! u touch urselfs at night!!!'' <---- thats a ''wtf'' moment right there.

a couple of suggestions that might help:

5 minute spawn times.

Commander issues Pilot and Crew kits

SL issues limited squad kits.

No snipers!

Obviously these are not very serious suggestions. But is might run a certain type of player elsewhere. There is a % of players who take PR as just BF2 with new shinny things the blow up. I'm really hoping 0.6 is really uppopular for these types. I have faith.

that's what im hoping for tommy, i feel like 2 weeks ago i was having alot more fun, now i'm 2 busy picking up the trash in the server (reporting problematics) to have fun...............

Think, thats a retarded vanilla "excuse", happened to me back in vBF2...

5min spawn time = not even "realism" players will play that often (unless they have A LOT OF TIME to spare). Not to mention even the "cannon-fodder-noobs" will play. AKA almost no one will play.

PS - rising level of smacktards = global warming. AKA, o rly!? shite! I mean, it happens a lil before and after each new patch version. I mean c'mon, EVERYONE likes to test out new ideas, be they "realistic" game players vs "acarde" players. Stop bein so game-ist. Shit happens man. If you want the game to be as realistic as you can, imagine these smacktards as the lowest IQ mofos that actually get into the armed forces, and that you have to deal with them.

PPS - OH NOES GLOBAL WARMING, BEWARE OF BF2142.

PPPSSSS - my bad, if I came off harsh, I didn't mean too, I've spent much time doing non-sobering stuff. But I'm gonna keep this post up to deter others.

in 2142 earth cools by the way

the point is they can try it, but they need to obide by server rules/regulations and be ready to listen and learn

OiSkout i would gladly play 5 min spawn timer.

Hopefully with all the changes in 0.6 we will see a decrease in these 'smacktards'.

I wouldn't mind it for a few months. If you die, go and put a cuppa tea on.

i feel like i need 5mins and a cuppa after some runs!

I wonder if it would be possible to allow an SL or commander to personally shoot an intentionally bad player. Maybe something on the com rose or the squad manager. Designate them AWOL and go full-bore Gen. Patton on them.

Much more satisfying than a "punish"

i'd love to be able to shout at me squaddie's "My grandmother could do better than that!" hehe that should bring the moral up.

- I remember playing on Basrah some time back.. i joined the server half way through the round. Fuzzhead was commander. I joined the the only squad with spave available. My new squad was totally out of position, doing god knows what. From when i joined the squad to when i left 5 minutes later all i could hear was the commander spamming abuse ...

"My grandmother could do better than that!"
"You are the WORST squad i've ever thad the misfortune to lead!"
"My grandmother could do better than that!"
"You are the WORST squad i've ever thad the misfortune to lead!"

i laughed my *** off... great work Fuzz.

Plenty of people already do stuff like punish for accidental TKs, etc. Imagine what would happen if they got to SL or commander positions with powers to administer battlefield justice.

Exactly.

Was playing on compton as british. Had the heavy AT kit, and was in that two story bunker just north west of the UK main. It has great view and is good for taking out most vehicles. I managed to take out an APC, but missed a tank. Kept calling for ammo with the commo rose AND ingame text and the only reply I got was -- just die and respawn noob.

I hate that reply....the most retarded logic ever: use your ammo, suicide, then request another kit and repeat...wtf?? I think, it would be easier to just get an ammo bag and resupply...but noooo

Generally anyone who uses noob in that way in-game, like that, needs to learn some old sayings; and use them as mantras.

"The pot calling the kettle black"
"He who lives in a glass house shouldn't throw stones"

Best ignore if possible.
