On the other hand yes it may stop the spawn camping but it's still going to have ppl pissed so your at a no win point just my 2 cents on it Angel, sabreeyes and Noears711XI 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of vote is not a vote by the players of this mod. I suppose the mderator such as an admin can check each voter and discard votes from players who play just very sparingly.

BUT... ACE is the oldest and all-time most popular mod we have run at XI. It has been here since like 2 seconds after the game came out in 2008 We have tried many many different things, particularly with anti-spawn camp and spawn protection. It is set up now at the most ideal way we can, giving equal consideration to both the person spawning and any opponent who is near the person spawning. When we tried the invisible spawn, then the spawners had the advantage because of ACE's speed.. you could be on top of someone and shooting before they even knew you were there. Keep the ideas coming though, someone may actually think of something we haven't done yet. BigPapaDean, JohnnyDos, BUDMAN and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On some of the smaller maps, you can still use your spawn protection to get away from the camper and he cant shoot you ! I have seen really bad spawn raping since I've been playing on there. Using a BB gun and a knife makes spawn camping tricky anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get together in TS or in a COD4 Admin forum here at the web site (you don't have one, but you should have one) and plan it out. You might pick a weekend or any period of several days, where you assign "shifts" so that over this raid period, there is always an admin in game undercover. As you find spawn campers, you ban them - XI member or guest - and let them come in here and explain themselves. Word will get around that the admin are doing this occasionally and that in itself will help cut down on the practice, because they'll never know when a "raid" is occurring. ??

It was fun and crazy and no spawn camping. Then a few years it started with the spawn camping and well I left ace mod for that reason. I enjoy that mod. It has been debating over the past few years of something to do and I wish it could be figured out cause I would love to go back playing there. People seriously need to go back to the way it used to be, dont fkn worry about ur score, enjoy the game and the fun and the convos. I can say thats one reason sniper server is enjoyable...everyone is there for the bs and stuff that goes on and we dont give a crap if we score good one map and suck the next and nobody thinks anyone is a better or worse player for that. I for one am that way, I can kick ass one map and then be like fk it, I just wanna bullshit and cut up in ts and I dont give a hoot if I score at all cause trust me I have some like that. I do however get frustrated with my ping and lag which is ridiculous for some reason right now again especially in beta for the past like 3 weeks. Good luck!!

However, there are definitely times where spawners get killed immediately. This isn't always a spawn camper.. it may be a guy that came around the corner.. sees another player.. and starts shooting, without having any idea that the person just spawned. BUT, there are people who hang around spawn areas and camp. These are the ones that need to be calibrated, and removed if necessary. I have said many many times before.. I don't really see the 'difference' everyone talks about with the ace server. I played it when we started it, and I play it now, and my gameplay feels about the same and my scores are about the same.. but most important.. my fun level is pretty good. I still enjoy the hell out of it. I don't discount others when they say it's different though, I just don't see it myself. Sonovabich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry I was greatly surprised yesterday afternoon. There was about 4 admins that came on the server and they also began the spamming of a message warning about spawn camping will not be allowed and some other things. The whole complexion of the people and game play was like it use to be. But as you said this needs to continue as if the guilty parties know it has stopped then they will resume. I still got shot by campers but not from spawn. That's all I care is that people play by the rules and play fair and have fun for all!
