Cinkadeus

lol, thanks. Was just wondering

I've only ever seen the !hat command used in conjunction with an object name. Didn't know it brought up a list.

Is there a hat list somewhere? I googled it but most of the results are useless. I know a few, and the one's that pop up on the command, but I'm looking for something unique.

W O O T. No trying to kill "cockroach" survivors all week! Joygasm.

Do we pay a game server company or is this hosted by a member? It crashed 3 times on us today and "Dead Center" is getting old really quick. One time it didn't even get finished with the campaign before restarting. I love death charging out of the hotel as much as the next guy (especially when its Maestro I'm throwing out the window ), but is there a randomizer on the starting campaign?

Jackie, what gives?

I only play around lunch CST and haven't really seen any of this. Not to say it doesn't happen. Hate to hear it though. I'm also a pretty mediocre player as well and my only gripe is the team stacking. I'm not talking about a 200 to 1000 pt single round, I'm talking about a 3000pt gap over 2 or 3 rounds and constant down voting of scrambles. Heh, a 3000 pt gap should be automatic. Other than that, I love the server and the usuals who are on around lunch. Except MaestroPG... Screw that guy <hugs maestro with charger>

Didn't I just make one of these threads? lol

I'm going with ATI. They have a better performance to dollar ratio.

Thanks for the manufacturer name... I knew Radeon came from someone I trusted but couldn't remember who.

Thanks for all the input. I think I'm leaning toward the Radeon HD 6950 2GB. I can't crossfire or SLI on this rig but performance/price ratio seems better on ATI cards. The shader count alone on ATIs is awesome. I'm figuring on making a decision the first week of Jan when Newegg tries to dump all its Christmas excess inventory. That's when you can get the best deals from them.

Yeah, Its been a long time since I've used ATI as well. There used to be a distinct difference in the two. I see that if you pair an ATI card with a AMD CPU there's some inherent advantage, but I'm strictly an Intel man after that whole 'slot' CPU debacle. That, and 2 of the 3 games I listed are "As its meant to be played" branded for nVidia.

So I find myself where I land every 2 years or so.... I need a new video card to feed my FPS habit and I'm wondering whether to go AMD (thats ATI) or nVidia again. I currently run a 9800GTX nVidia on a quad-core Intel chip. Luckily, PCI tech hasn't changed any since I bought this rig so I won't be replacing the entire mobo. So I dare to ask the community, in risking a debate worse than one based in religion, which should I get?

I'm eyeing a 560 or so nVidia card. I have a $300 price range.

oh and almost forgot, this will be for BF3, Batman:AC, and WoW mostly. Yeah, I know... WoW. Don't say it, just let it rest there.

I just keep charging incaps.... grrrrrr.

And I did notice the lack of consistent glow on them today.

Meh, its more distracting than annoying... Its not a game-breaker. Steam has bigger problems right now than fixing this. Their forums are STILL down.

This guy was nearly voted out because they thought he was just standing there AFK when, in fact, he was incapped while still standing.

Are people that bad that they don't pay attention to glows anymore?

Do you even have to ask?

Nevermind the fact she's screaming, "I'M DOWN! OH DEAR GOD SOMEONE HELP ME!"

We may need to see if we can turn the Zoey model off. It was affecting gameplay today. This guy was nearly voted out because they thought he was just standing there AFK when, in fact, he was incapped while still standing. I think there's a cvars option to limit the amount of Zoey models spawned or just disable it entirely.

VaLvE time is like bullet time... Development goes all slow-moey and you dodge patches like bullets.

They were hacked. I read a story about it yesterday.

Anyone seeing Zoey's animations a little off? I thought maybe it was just my office PC but then I tested at home and it was the same thing. She just floats around. Can't tell when she's down unless she's yelling for help. Out of the 8 survivors she was the only one screwing up. Anyone else seeing this or am I just losing it?

Crud... And just when I was in the market for more space too.

Hey guys! I've been frequenting the GC L4D2 server for a few weeks now and decided it was time to join up and pay my share. I've been really impressed with the quality of gamer at GC and the setup of the server. The admins have always been cordial and rushers usually kicked.

As for me, I'm a 5 year veteran of WoW. I'm currently an officer of the number one raiding guild on the Detheroc realm, S E V E N. (That wasn't really being arrogant... I left out that we're the ONLY serious raiding guild on that realm, lol) Recently, I've cut my WoW time down substantially and I'm getting back into FPS. After getting L4D2 for $7 on a steam special, I've got the FPS fever again. I bounced around on several modded Vs servers until I finally found the awesomeness that is the GC server.

I generally only play FPS games from my office during my lunch, so you'll mostly see me online between 11a - 1p CST. I go by Cinkadeus (just say 'sink' in game and I'll know you mean me) in everything so if you see that name in any game, its most likely me. I look forward to gaming with you guys!

PS: Is there a standardized tag that GC players use? I've seen multiple variants and was just wondering.

Cinkadeus is paid up for standard membership.

Now to kill me some survivors.

Paid: 11/7/11

I've played a lot of L4D modded servers and GC is by far the BEST one out there. Good group of guys (and some gals), good admins, just the right amount of mods. Its so good in fact, I'm considering joining.

But then we have those flukes like today's lunch time patch that reset the server... Then when it restarted it was pure amateur hour.

So anyway, I'll probably sign up this weekend.

Thanks,

Cink

I go to log on for my usual lunch hour game here at the office and the server is 0/22. I need my fix, gentlemen!
