Wow, I didn't know you were tweaking maps. Cool. I'd never played that one until it was put in the rotation. I hate it as survivor... I get so lost.

Valve is in love with their 10 year old Source Engine too much.

I still think it looks pretty good. And being that old, its capable of running on sub-par machines. At its inception, separately rendered trash objects were revolutionary. "You mean I can shoot a milk carton and it will MOVE?!?" Before then, everything was a painted texture on a solid, indestructible surface. Even an empty soda can.

...Swamp of Invisible Walls...

ROFL... I'm stealing that line.

And thanks.

Why do we not have Crash Course in the rotation? Having never played it til just a few minutes ago, I didn't see it as a bad map. There looked like some great choke points and death charge locations. Does it have other, server-side issues?

I know most of you already know this, but its not really posted anywhere...

HA.. Yeah, TImes, that took me a few seconds of looking at it too to get it.

MPG or that "Radical" guy is usually on when i am, but not today. I occasionally say Watch the Language but I don't have a mic here at my office so it mostly gets overlooked.

Well we sure weren't enforcing it today.

I'm all for it.. When I signed up, I read through that and knew what was expected of me. I didn't even know we were lax on it at the time. I don't mind the occasional slip in the heat of the battle, but when you key up to specifically say nothing but "F!" multiple times in a row, then yeah, that has to end.

Take respawning off for a month and see what happens.

 

This is too logical and straight forward. We need something devious and sadistic like a free tank with each respawns.

That's a little brutal. Now I CAN support spawning a witch on every respawn. Make that a 20 pt option like the hoard one.

I don't think you can get any more awesome, Jackie

I've never seen the need for it, really. I always have something open full screen and when I get up, I always lock my machine so all you get is the login screen. So my desktop is standard teal. But I did change the Win7 default to this:

The Google/NASCAR one is good too. Even NASCAR got in on the deal.

Our current DB is filled with tons of useless stats if its possibru to use it.

Is there a list somewhere of possible achievements? GC achieves, not Valve ones.

It would be cool to have some "Longshot" achievements for survivors

There's even a Longshot+Headshot for 3 pts. I get them all the time. I have a 17% headshot rate.

If they use C or C++ syntax, I can look into it. That's what I do.

Yeah only problem with the fireworks one is that sometimes it ends up giving me a propane tank instead.. I guess it's not 1, 7, 7 on every map?

 

Thanks for posting those, Biggs. And yeah, there's 1 or 2 maps that switch that around for some reason. I usually buy at least 3 propane tanks on accident .

And just WHAT is wrong with propane?

COLD STREAM

Why not have the instructions on that welcome splash screen? Like a big red "HEY, READ THIS BEFORE PROCEEDING" message. You don't get teamed up until you pass that screen anyway and that way you won't be standing in spit while reading how to use !buy.

And thanks for the macro shortcuts. I was thinking there was a shortcut to buying fireworks like lasers or ammo.

+1, Like, and Repinned.

Yeah it seems to happen mostly to the same people over and over again. I didn't get switched but saw it happen to some people half a dozen times.

 

 

Also, is it possible to add in rocket jockey points, or a rocket jockey achievement? If I go flying and actually hit somebody with it, that should be worth something at least. Just a small point value like 2 or something would be fine. Doesn't need to be extreme like how hunters have it.

I'd settle for just an on screen message "DESTERION PERFORMED A ROCKET-JOCKEY!!! SUCK IT!!"

Bring it, I got that racist Meng healin me.

He'll have a lot of time to spend in the admin panel seeing how he's incapped or dead 90% of his game time.

Great idea, thanks!

Quick question: Has there been an auto-scramble put in? I kept switching teams yesterday on every map of a campaign. Don't know if it was an admin or not because I'd already be on the other team when I'd load up.
