zircon Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I have no problem with the stat reset. For example I sucked a lot before, which brought down my current k/d ratio, making it very hard to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeCrusher Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Yeah, but whats even the point of having stats if you are gonna reset them every few months? That doesn't give you an accurate list of how people are playing or have ever played. Sounds to me like some newbies were bitching about how they can't make number 1 in like 2 weeks so they pitched a fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdgeCrusher Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Eh, I just tried to play, and I just have no interest now cause I feel like I got nothing to strive for or goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tensei Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I don't care about my points (I was like 20th in points iirc), I care about my k/d, which was basically at 0.5 because of my noob suicidal pyro runs when I was starting out, so the 0.86 k/d I managed to get it up to wasn't really an accurate representation of it. btw, presh is an admin too if I recall correctly.

Secret Agent Man Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 A stats reset was discussed about a month ago in IRC. It was then agreed upon then that the stats would be reset after the flood of sandvich (i.e. after the Heavy Update). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdgeCrusher Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I never saw anyone say a word in the IRC channel about a stats reset, or here of course. So yeah, I am a little irritated. If I had known that I wouldn't have worked my ass off the last few weeks to get up to 14k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I'm okay with it, every once in a while it's nice to have the playing field leveled for all! Not to mention with these new scores I managed to get back up to and past my previous rank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 yeah I'm sorry but two people talking about it in PMs doesn't really count as a discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Just finished a new release of my map, ctp_epsilon_a2, I did some simple texturing, not a lot of detail, but it's a start. I also fixed up some gameplay quirks and added a better HUD. Check it out if you get the chance, it's best played with a mostly full server as it's a large map. If you have any suggestions let me know. And if Bahamut could replace the previous a1 version with this one, that would be great thanks! download link + pictures; http://forums.tf2maps.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=632 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Look forward to trying it out, Zephyr. I really don't mind working my way back up, as long as my kill to death and overall stats are kept on there.. Oh, shit. They're not. I wasn't even trying to be a douche, either, I honestly thought I saw that they were still on there. Now I'm kinda irritated. I understand setting the whole points thing over again at zero, but was it necessary to take out all the other stuff too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: I'm not sure if the server has to change maps or be reloaded before it appears in the Admin selection list and rtv list, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atmuh Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 i feel like we never play steel anymore and its like a million times better than badwater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdboyscott Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Guess you were just there at the wrong time because before you logged in to the server we had at least a couple plays on Steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atmuh Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Guess you were just there at the wrong time because before you logged in to the server we had at least a couple plays on Steel. i played almost 10 hours in 2 days but didnt play steel once at least there was plenty of dustbowl ok so you probably hear me complain about pretty much every map but thats because the only maps i really really like are 2fort (ya i like it now) steel dustbowl goldrush gravel pit hydro and well (cp) used to be the best when these were the only maps in the rotation ): at least get the terrible crap like badlands mach4 fastlane royal (ok it looks cool but its pretty dumb for a ctf map) and EVERY ARENA MAP (because not only are they terrible but they are also pretty good at getting people to quit) off of there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeCrusher Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Yeah, lets get rid of arena maps cause atmuh hates them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted September 14, 2008 Author Share Posted September 14, 2008 So, I changed the current map rotation to this: pl_badwater cp_dustbowl ctp_epsilon_a2 cp_granary pl_badwater tc_hydro cp_dustbowl ctf_2fort cp_gravelpit pl_goldrush cp_steel pl_badwater cp_well ctf_royal_b3 cp_badlands tc_hydro pl_dustbowl_b4 ctf_turbine I've noticed that a lot of people don't like the arena maps, and there tends to be a lot of bitching in them, so for now I removed the two unique arena maps from the rotation. In addition, I switched mach4 for royal, and where royal originally was for ctp_epsilon_a2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Baha, awesome move in putting Epsilon in the official rotation. Looking very forward to it. I'm sad to see all the Arena maps go...well, I'm just really fond of the color green and thus, Lumberyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
