Rambo

This. I drop from 30fps to 10fps at mid-range, and 5fps at close. And once my computer has reached a certain temperature (this does it), framerate remains deteriorated. Vahn knows this, and he has responded to several complaints with: "get a better computer".

If it comes to a vote, I vote for this. No crit/random damage and team-speak.

Bonzai just confirmed she'll scrim. That means there's one more spot! Oh. haha just saw Tran!'s post. So we have 12 good for monday between 7-11EST? Fireslash Rambo Bonzai D-Lux Vivi Depo Paranoid Kiyobi Clefairy Atmuh Pavlvs Tran! Chives Garian Sensai (internets permitting) Draken-Korin !! FROGG Vahn Seldon People not bolded, let us know if you can make monday Nov. 2nd 7-11EST. If we get another 6, we can make 3 teams.

I WAS GOING TO DO THE MASTER HAND. And I'm STILL going to. I got whisked away to carve pumpkins when I intended on making an entry.

lol not to worry. I'd like to have one on the 2nd, but an additional one this week would be cool too, if people can manage. Yourself included!

I don't experience anything like this. But you should read up on this if you haven't already. It's very interesting: Synthesia. You might also want to fix the typo in the topic title: Visulise = Visualize

Sorry Vivi... Hahaha. You're right. I'm a hatfield. Idling is like playing pokeymans, and coming home or waking up to a hat is like catching a legendary! OM NOM NOM. No. I don't actually have 24 hats. But it sure does piss off all the people in the idle servers. Good lulz. I was going to say let's try for next monday (Nov. 2nd) to accommodate Paranoid but we already have 10 players. We might be able to do one sooner in addition to one on the 2nd, contingent on people availability. Thoughts? Pavlvs, should I put Vahn and Seldon down as available between 7-11EST?

UPDATED LIST: Fireslash Rambo Bonzai Garian D-Lux Vivi Depo Chives Paranoid !! Kiyobi Sensai (internets permitting) Draken-Korin Clefairy Atmuh FROGG Bold names have confirmed that between 7-11EST works for them. As soon as we get 12 bold names we can pick a date. If that time frame doesn't work for you, please suggest another time/day. We'll go with whatever get's us 12 players.

Whenever we can get 12 players together. And hopefully any time after that when we can get 12 players together. UPDATED LIST: Fireslash Rambo Bonzai Garian D-Lux Vivi Depo Chives Paranoid (maybe) !! Kiyobi Sensai (maybe) Spork Clefairy Atmuh We now have 13 people confirmed and capable. And 2 maybes. Now we can start throwing around times and dates. D-lux is only available from 7-11PM EST, so let's start there. Who else would be available at this time, and on what days. Anyone who's not on this list is still welcome! These 13 will have first priority on player slots for the first scrim. But hopefully there will be many more to come! If I forgot to put anyone on the current list, I'm sorry....

Wow. This is really impressive Fireslash. I had no idea how much effort you had been putting into this. Good on you. Is there any chance of creating crit kills, crits killed by and/or deaths statistics? That's something I've always been interested in.

I meant most people know about the taunting. I wasn't trying to be snide. I didn't know how the hitboxes worked while the soldier jumped either. I just knew that the headshot's wouldn't be consistent.

It's difficult to get headshots when people jump, for hitbox related issues. Same with taunting, but most people know this.

Well done. You've illustrated that a kritz has both pros and cons. You're incredibly right! It's not overpowered! It doesn't change the fact that it's still used frequently. In regards to playing pyro. If you're organised in your attack, a pyro has plenty of utility. And defense IS half the game. You still have to defend the points you've already captured. and NEITHER of these discussions even matter. Chives is a damn good pyro. He's probably a better pyro than most regulars are at scout, or soldier for that matter. These are friendly matches. You've not going to be restricted to playing a specific class. There will be a class limit, but not a class requirement. Noone in this server is pro. Yourself included. So stop acting like you know everything. Similarly, if you're going to tell everyone what to do, I don't think anyone will want you participating anyway.

uh youre terrible get out

Yes, because it's apparent much quicker and an admin can scramble. Dustbowl should often be scrambled. But he doesn't happen most of the time. General admin: "we'll give both teams a chance to attack, to see if we need a scramble", which isn't wrong. But it sucks on dustbowl.

Sure. And then the entire red team rage quits. If you lose after 18 minutes, your team f***ed up and its incredibly frustrating. The same thing happens on Badwater last point. Except it doesn't waste half as much time. Yeah and in most cases it either lasts <5 minutes. Or 20+ minutes So the weak team gets rolled for 5 minutes, and then 20 minutes. Any other map would be <10 minutes total. All maps play best if teams are even. And just about all maps play better than dustbowl if the teams aren't even.

Dustbowl 3 is the best thing if the teams are even. How often is that the case? Otherwise its a POS. Also, there's no reason for the defending team not to be kritz+demo+10 engineers. There is no reason it should ever be 20+ minutes. Give me a break.

I do enjoy dustbowl when the teams are good, but I'd honestly prefer cp_pro_dustbowl which is only the first 2 sections of the map. 15-20 minutes on the last stage is just ridiculous.

I'd personally like it to be 6v6. With standard class restrictions... but while the format you mentioned is usually ideal, people wouldn't have to stick with it. Teams often switch out soldiers or scouts for a sniper, pyro, or a heavy, sometimes a spy, and on rare occasion an engie. Thoughts? Updated.

Fireslash and I were just talking in IRC about getting some OCR friendly scrims going again. I heard the only one we've ever had was a success. Fireslash has offered up his server as a venue. Nothing super serious. No yelling allowed. Just playing organized matches against friendly names. No melee only. Let's get a list of people interested for this time around: Fireslash Rambo Bonzai (I'm assuming) Garian (You too)

I really really like the COA.... but the colour contrast is jarring to me. The colours are much more pleasing in the patch. I don't know what I would change personally. Maybe yellow shells on the heavy's shell clip? Actually, what's the backdrop colour gonna be. That'll make a big difference. EDIT: maybe hit just looks flat in comparison because of the patch's gradient yellow.

But if the soldier simply shoots at his feet to kill the spy trying to backstab him, and jumps at the same time.

wouldn't it register the same as if the soldier simply, jumped, while killing a spy who is right next to him though?

Despite their claims, this: Fixed fire overlay drawing on hats in DX80 isn't true. They also didn't fix the crit particle effect lingering after some rounds of humiliation. What's this about kiyobi's framerate more than doulbling? In a higher res??

I've been in the server before when I was one of 4 people out of 20 that didn't want to melee only. Sometimes the majority is up for it.
