This can sometimes happen when someone tries to force an expert campaign lobby into one of our servers, it ends up retaining expert damage amounts but returns to versus mode.

I know this because I tested it myself one day.

not sure which answers you think are me trolling but the only one is the song lol, the rest is truth. if i meant to make this a troll post i didn't do a very good job of it. 

The best part about all of this is that they think they are fooling people. I love it. Its just so sad to watch that it eventually becomes funny.

Aside from the peanut gallery's snide comments, lets get on to this post.

1. Sometime back in 2013 I found out about this server from Jimn, many of you probably don't remember him, and I've been here ever since then, on and off.

2. Can't exactly remember my first day on GC but I do remember my first month or so. I was actually banned for cheating, as was my buddy Jimn. However, we came in in a respectable manner and with a good attitude and "our case" was looked at by the admins. Afterwards, we patiently awaited their decision, be it good or bad. Evidently it was good because low and behold, look who is speaking now, even if Jimn is no longer around.

3. Well aside from Jimn, and even if many of you aren't exactly too keen about her, my best friend, and probably still is, on the server had to be Charon. Say what you want about her, but she is the one who kept me around the longest out of anyone else. I probably wouldn't have stayed and made more friends if it wasn't for her. Sadly, many of you only knew of her gaming side. She was a really great friend, even if she would get mad at you.

4. Mostly what keeps me coming back to play is the community that we have here, minus the merry band of misfits that is on their way out currently. These servers try to keep all the toxicity that is the L4D2 community out. That is what I love most about these servers and what brings me back to this server more than any other.

5. GC has showed me humility. For a long time I thought I was pretty good at the game, until I met Swatfishy and a handful of other one man armies like General. As much as I liked to try, I just couldn't seem to top them, so I finally admitted defeat and left it at the fact that they are just better than I could ever be.

6. Some of the fondest memories of GC that I have are when no one knew that hunters were so dangerous, except maybe those one many armies. When me and Jimn joined, after our ban and a few other events, everyone started looking and waiting for hunters at all times. Sure it was bound to happen at some point but I remember how me and Jimn helped that idea along very rapidly. As for sad ones, I have plenty, but none I would really care to share.

7. Don't particularly have any song that reminds me of GC because I never listen to music when I play L4D2, I just focus on the sounds of the game.

8. My goal next year is to finish my contractor work and be hired on as a full time employee of Rolls Royce Nuclear. As for L4D2, I should probably get better at looking at the chat and seeing when people need points. I tend to miss those crucial requests quite often.

If we wait until next week, I can stream it on my new computer. Even if not, Ill try to make it there this saturday

I know I haven't tried it yet so I don't know if this is a real problem or not, but what counts as one of these hordes being "defeated," I ask because it says only 1 at a time. Could the survivors just leave one alive and the infected not be able to spawn in another one? Or is it when a majority of them die like maybe 75%?

We will actually be generating a new map so that everyone can start fresh, although we will keep a backup of our old map. So if anyone wants to join, now's the time. Brand new map, absolutely bare.

I'll hop in the Rust discord voice channel, since there is no longer or never was a Minecraft channel, whenever Im on, if anyone wants to check it out.

Or can you make it more powerful? Like maybe a buy option for non-stop hordes? Or make the horde option spawn a horde of about 50-60? To make it worth it? Dunno if possible or not but...

Oh yeah, it definitely will, there are 200+ mods on it. My buddy has the server updated, Ill pass the IP in a bit, when I figure it out. The game itself takes a while to load too. Make sure that the launcher has at least 5GB dedicated for it, cause this pack will need it.

Edit:

Server IP: 158.69.225.190:25575

Yes that is 75 not 65. 

He has tried before to come back either through appeal request or through an alternate account, only to find himself banned again. If you had tried what seemed like all your options and ended up with nothing, how would you feel?

Honestly Soda, if I were in Deadlocks shoes, I would feel proud and defeated at the same time.

I would feel proud mainly because I was so good that I was deemed a cheater by not one, not two, not three, nor four, nor five, I was deemed a cheater by ten to twenty plus people, and that I was banned from a server because I was too good.

I would also feel defeated because even though I tried to appeal my ban, it was never finished.

I would have held my head high as I walked. However, he chose to slide his way back in with subterfuge and continue to argue and slander his own name.

Its quite a lot of fun, this sort of minecraft takes forever, which is nice cause the normal game is too fast. My buddy is already up to magic while Im still barely reaching Tier 3 (Low Voltage).

If anyone wants to join us, just 2 or 3 of us at the moment, show some interest in here and Ill get my buddy to get it updated and back running.

There is a modpack out for Minecraft that me and my buddy have been playing on for a while now. it is called GT New Horizons and there is a good summary of if based on a quick video at the end of this post.

Its a very difficult modpack as explained in the video and has provided us with more than 3-4 weeks worth of content and we haven't even made it to the 3rd Tier shown in the video. If anyone is interested in joining, my buddy can keep the server up to date and open it up for others.

Some things he didn't mention are some of the multiblock structures, which I think are really awesome and can be seen in the video but not really explained.

For example, In order to make a smeltery you need at least a 3x1 hollowed area surrounded by Seared Brick with a Seared Tank for holding lava, which is used to smelt the metals, and a Seared Controller to place in the metals to be smelted. This can be further extended upwards for more smelting space, as long as it there is at least a 3x3 hollwed area all the way down to the bottom of the smeltery.

Anyways, its a fun, aggravating, and enjoyable mod, just thought maybe some people who still play might like to join us or who would like to come back but GC doesn't have a server for it anymore.

I came here to check out the new update notes and see a debate over healing spams? Can we put this in an appropriate forum post rather than spam it here.

Not like anyone cares, but if I remember and am available, I'll show up.

Its seems as if the creator might actually grace us with his presence. We shall prepare a sacrifice. It shall be a peanut butter and jelly sandwich sacrifice.

A Beautiful charge right beofre customs:

Such a shame, could have been fun to participate in

That, Johnny, was a beautiful deadstop.  A clap and a half for you sir.

Isnt there an achievement for the longest pull possible? I could have sworn there was, cant think of the name right now though

I know I did, to which i enjoyed it very much. Quite funny. Many walls of the 4th kind were broken as well.

Anyways, getting off topic here guys.

Hmm, alright jackie, how about some pixel art instead then? Ill still use RPGMV to animate it but itll be pixel art.

Or I could try and make a really scenic looking map, although I didnt create the tiles, I arranged them into a beautiful canvas

I dont know

Since its been a long time since Ive had a membership, Im interested in this, I could possibly make a game or such, if that counts? Obviously related to the L4D2 server and people.

Chalk another one up to ping. That pounce should not have connected.

I would cast my vote as a "No" as well, even if it is one time per round. My reasoning is similar to Shaq's. If a player gets pinned in the back due to his stupidity, and will probably die from it, it only encourages him to mess around if he has that "lifeline" still. Obviously if he doesn't have it he will return to his normal stupidity but you would be giving the survivors a little bit more "leeway" with straying from the team, a second chance for the survivor when it was the infected's only chance to capitalize on the one stupidity.

I also kind of believe that you already have this sort of thing. You have a limited respawn amount, 3 per map, and it costs 30 points, plus a negative 25 points to overall score. If a player has enough points or is sent enough he can respawn, I think that is good enough. I like the respawn better than this idea, rather than giving a good player his own "respawn" at 10 points, its up to the team to return and actually help the person successfully respawn or send him points.

But if it were to pass, here's an argument against it if its implemented. I understand its an unpin and that it will kill the infected on top of you, but if you are going to use this, chances are you are about to die or are in a spot where your team cannot readily get to you before you die. In this instance, more than 1 infected will be after you, and if you happen to get hit by the infected to begin with, its over. Even with your "lifeline" you would still have to be in "get-up" animation, and during this animation, the other infected waits and gets you before you can react.

That being said, this "animation" only applies to 2 of the 4 pinning specials. Smokers and Jockeys are instant reactions upon being saved.

If you do implement the knife anyways, I believe it should have a major drawback and should count as being defibbed meaning the survivors lose 25 game points for using it. Not only that it should give the infected some points, maybe the 10 the survivor used is a "bribe" for the infected to get off and the infected player gets that 10.

Nice! I've got RPG maker MV myself, got it a ways back.

Has the game changed any? Or have you just ported it over? I know its not as simple as just ported over, theres a lot of trouble swapping from the VXAce to MV, especially the graphics and the smaller looking characters, so, well done.

From what I have deduced, through comparing points before and after, is that BOT:<zombie> will not give you any points if killed, however a headshot still gives 1 extra point as well as a longshot giving an extra 0.5 points for a max of 1.5 points from killing a Bot infected. Killing a bot survivor also only gives you 2 points instead of 5 for a normal player. I believe that healing a bot or reviving a bot gives you only 1 point or 2 rather than 4 for a normal player.

Currently, the display always reads as +0.00, which is just incorrect because you still receive the points. The only problem is that the display is currently broken or incorrect.

In regards to a rusher, @aim is flawed in the fact the target does kind of need to be in the area of the crosshair, and once the target leaves that area, it won't work. 

Right, which is why I advised using thirdperson spectator, which keeps the camera pointed directly at the right person 100% of the time.
