:rolleyes: I'm not sure if this should be a Topic or a Poll. Let's make it both. I'd like some feedback from as many players as possible. I myself, prefer settings like, one
shot, one kill. To be more precice, I like it on the insane side. What I mean by that is,
use of all weapons (with the exception of the nade), no restrictions on ammo, no camp-detect, tele-blast enabled, quad, and flight. Also, change the weapons settings. Have different shooting patterns, different amounts of shots ie: BFG has 3, Rail with LG, RL with rapidfire, to name but a few. But make them all with the same strength, one shot, one kill. I'm curious how this turns out. ;)

1.) You are insane -- which is only normal response to this society today, so that's OK.

2.) Yes, it's a good idea, just if you have 1-shot-kill weapons, what's the point in make rapid-fire rockets and 3-way BFG? It would be just sit and fire, more or less. It would become boring quickly. Maybe we can do something in that direction. FFA now uses extreme speed and weapons are powerful too. Only thing limited is ammo, but in general 1-3 shots kill for all weapons.

Thankyou Dyn. But I think you missed my whole point to this topic/poll. My whole point
is to change the "atmosphere" of Anarchy to make it "insane". If that's not possible,
then make it as close as possible based on the responses this thread gets. I'm hoping
it's as close to insane as it can get. :rolleyes:

OK, will try to make it more insane than it is already. We should try something, but not today because we are working on other stuff. If someone has suggestions, reply to this topic.

Speaking about insane settings... I did something today, but not much. You may try few games on FFA. I added few bots which will go away when others join, just to the sake of testing.

Is MG gun with unlimited ammo now? :( I liked it when it was limited, it forces players to use different weapons and make it more fun to play like that.

It can be set to that, or close to 200...

Wow... We had unlimited and some fucks started to camp all the time. It was just 1.) switch to MG 2.) find some spot and aim at area where people appear/pass 3.) crouch and press fire - it looked like they are taking a dump and firing at same time.

Skid sent me some demos, it was really stupid, i was wondering how can someone even play like that. Too bad morons like that "play" or else rest of us could use unlimited option, at least from time to time.

I doubled it now. Reason for lower is servers restarted and default is 88 MG/44 RL.

it's as close to insane as it can get. :rolleyes:

yes....right...i only try to play for fun, not for winning...
throwing all ammo into the area gives a wonderful omnipotent
feeling to me, i would say: i like to dance with my ammo.
& the topmost fun is reached, when my skill is smelt with
ammo, weapons, enemies & highscore.
so i vote for insane!

Holy Spawn camping Batman. :D

I've seen some players abuse the camping thing with the MG. I know we all camp now and then, but come on this going way too much. I've even seen skilled players like KingQuake do that, what a shame. :rail:

Yes, when unlimited ammo is on people abuse MG too much and if MG is not enabled, they abuse SG. By abuse i don't mean play with it normally but sitting or taking a dump in some corner and putting duct tape on fire button. I think with this strategy you don't even need to be present, you can make coffee or something and then come back at intermission and say 'i have teh skillz'. What surprises me is how some regular players don't see that, or don't want to admit they do the same a lot of times.

Here are some demos Skid sent me last day:
http://mihd.net/k10xps (1.8 MB)(clean, no wait, no ads download)
http://rapidshare.com/files/84571456/demos.zip.html (1.8 MB)(alternative link)

Unlimited ammo is cool but without MG/SG, because of all the campers.
