Cod4 Ace Mod Possible Changes?

[Ruggerxi]

Thanks for the feedback, I made a couple tweaks to some settings. Longer camp time for snipers, little longer for non snipers, and changed how much you need to move to stop the anti camping warning

I see 2 ace servers in hlsw. One is locked. What is password to play it? How are people playing this test server?

The one that is locked is my test server, no one needs to play on that

Well, I stopped by for a few seconds this morning to see what was new. Quickly discovered my TUOOBE only had TWO NADES in it.

 

I hope the whiners are happy now. What'll they whine about next?

 

Love ya! Mean it!

SPAWN CAPMERS MUST DIE A CRUEL DEATH!!!!!

 

Campers need love too.

I have nothing but love for campers.  The key word is "Spawn" campers.

Camper time is too little, you can't even hide and heal yourself with a first aid kit.........

[Ruggerxi]

Remember this is only in testing and will be tweaking it as we go along, so please continue with the feedback.

I'm in the server now and I have healed myself a couple times with no issues with camping warning

I  am all for changes that benefit everyone, but I am disappointed with two nade tube thing.  We already had a limited number of hand grenades in ACE mode, just 1, as opposed to 2 in COD2 and 2  or 3 in COD5.  There's no possibility to pick up nades from the floor or dead bodies, so the nade launcher kind of balanced this out. Anyway, I know this is probably important for me as I use almost exclusively nades for a living

Good one Gatorgirl!!

That is the perfect emoticon for Beer!!

 

I laughed so hard I have tears in my eyes as I type this!!!1

I tested it this morning whith two regulars ( SPUCK and corsicaman ) and i have a few remarks :

-The delay to be called a camper is too short you don't have enough time to use a med pack or use a claymore

-if in a building and detected as a camper the fact to go upstairs will change nothing as the system consider you are still in the same area

-would it be possible to disable the anti-camping when using a sniper rifle ? or at least give more time to snipers ? 

 

I just tested out the building thing and I was in a simple two story building for a couple mins running around upstairs and downstairs and there was no camping warning with the new settings

[Artimus Prime]

If you are going to limit the nades to two then you should limit all the other weapon loads to 7 shot clips before reload.

 

It seems with the camper counter it is just senseless running around and with me not even knowing the maps I can't sit  and figure out where I am without the camper counter starting.

 

Then if you are inside a building looking out the window someone is yelling and calling you a camper.........sheesh.

 

You guys need to come on Cod2 DM for a spanking you will never forget.

 

II think it is worse when a spawn pops up in front of you in a dead run and kills you with you knowing where they came from.

[john tams]

Ok, I've just played on the ace mod server with the new anti camping mod,

and I agree something needed to be done about the Spawn campers, who sit behind a spawn area all game and nail you soon as you appear.

But you need time to find your way around a map, and not just run around like a lunatic getting shot every 3-4 seconds.

I come from the UK and my ping is around 130 or so, and I find it hard enough to beat the low ping guys as it is.

Can't we adjust the time span from staying still to getting the anti camper warning to say about 60 seconds?.

In my view this will deter the real campers and at the same time give everyone a little time for strategy/working out where you/and the others are and not just blundering

about and getting picked off all the time.

 

Just my thoughts.JT

[Ruggerxi]

Thanks again for your responses today on this. 

 

I have made some couple final tweaks that I think will be in the medium point I was looking for. 

 

You have 60 secs to camp sniper or not, you need to move a little less than you did before to stop the camp wanring, you have 4 secs of invisible spawn protection and you have 4 tubes. 

 

I think this will stop the spawn camping from happening and also keep the server moving and not have people just camping in the corners of the map waiting for people to run by. 

 

Thanks again and please continue to post positive or negatives on the changes.

I for one do not like this new camping mod. Everyone has their own way of playing the game or should I say their own techniques. If you're a camper than you're a camper and we should not punish them for their playing style. I like to run and gun for most of the maps, but there are some maps I like to snipe and I don't think I should have to move after 60 seconds. My opinion, which I don't think matters, is who are we to ask someone to change their style of gaming. If you are spawn camping then that person should be kicked out, but don't punish other peoples style of playing just to control spawn camping. I mean if we are going to try and control someone style of playing then we need to control that double character who like to just run and throw C4 at you or even deans running and knifing. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with either one of these players, but who are we to judge one style of playing if we are not going to judge all the style of playing. If that's the case then maybe we should change our clan name from Xtreme Idiots to Xtreme God since we are playing god and dictating someone style of playing....looks like Rat Camper wont be on this server no more since this is his style of playing and I like playing against him.

Sorry, I know I am being a little harsh on this subject, but this is how I really felt last night after joining the server.

[TecHnOBoY]

From my point of view 60 secs is way way too much.

@@SABRE

You are right, no one should be punished for his playing style. There are not only big maps. There are many small(er) maps which seem to be
one big spawn point. Especially on this maps the campers suck! I have nothing against Rat and others who camp in person. But getting killed
when you walk around  the corner because someone is waiting for you is terrible. And no fun.

I noticed that today there was more traffic than the past weeks. And except of Grendel, Redbull and one or two others i heard no
one who complained about it. And the server was almost full.

Give it a chance. You have 60 Secs for your camping stuff then you have to move to another spot or you will be punished.


The second thing is that there seems to be a problem with this anticap mod.
I spawned on Skater Park and was punished directly though i was moving. I had this issue ONCE and it never happened again.
Redbull has complained about it. Continuously. I don't know why.
Poor  @@BUDMAN

[SABRE]

The bottom line TecHnOBoY is that the clan is dictating the style in which they want their ace mode server to be played. Before this changed happened, was there a vote put together to see how the other members felt about this change? After all, a lot of clan members donate money to this clan to help pay for the servers so I feel we should have a vote before major changes like this are completed. Just my opinion!!!

[TecHnOBoY]

@@SABRE

not really a vote, but this topic. And this server was lacking traffic - like rugger said in his first post. And i can understand if he want's to change something to get
more traffic to the server. I think it is worth to try something new to keep the servers alive. And everyone is free to post his feeling and opinions here

Let's see what happens.

[LaRSin]

Just played the Acemod seems to be the same old same old , even worse with invisible spawn ,now the run and gunner hasn't a chance from the invisible spawn protection plus the camping, you don't have a chance, nothing changed,

Edited June 16, 2013 by LaRSin

[LaRSin]

The Acemod will never change because it's dominated by camping , And they will win any vote we have, or change that is tried ,

May as well put it back the way it was and just allow spawn camping ,that way no one can complain about it if it's allowed..

[2_MANY_BEERS]

Maybe with all the maps we are playing now, some very small, we should get rid of them. The larger the map the more spawns I would hope. Maybe we should try that and just start getting rid of small maps.

[JohnnyB]

i think any kind of  camping mod is a BAD idea.  It interrupts the flow of the game and I don't think spawn camping is that much of a problem, like others have said we all have our own styles of play, I personally mix it up, sometimes I run around with a shotgun or pistol, sometimes I like to find a good hide and snipe.  Plus the players go after spawn campers during the games and they can always be banned if they don't stop, can't they? 

 

I am more annoyed when folks see a pistol game and keep using automatic weapons no matter how many times they're asked.  I'm also annoyed by some playing styles like stabby Dean but hey, he's a good guy and likes to shiv people so that comes with the territory.  It would SUCK if everyone is confined to a set style.  If this continues i won't be playing on my favorite server anymore. 

 

Like I said during the game, if it ain't broke don't fix it.  This will RUIN the best CoD server, if it's all to end spawn camping you're shooting a mosquito with a howitzer and you're going to lose longtime players like myself.

[RON_BACARDI_]

The Ace mod has been lacking traffic as of late and some of the reasons is that people want things done with the mod that is not possible with the mod we are running. So I propose a changing of the mod, the gameplay will still be the same with the speed and how fast the guns shoot etc, but a different mod that will open up possibilities for more things such as different air strikes, better spawn protection, new guns, etc. 

 

ACE Mod players please post here and let me know if you are happy with what we have and should just leave it alone, or give change a chance?

I can't play as it is because I won"t be able move and shoot at the same time as well as others. I have to play one handed. I get killed 19 of 20 times, so it doesn't work for me. Thanks for all the fun I have had in the past.

[RON_BACARDI_]

Is there another cod4 that doesn't have "camping mods" on it? If not I guess I will have to surrender my tags. Thanks for everything,Rugger.

[2_MANY_BEERS]

Jesus now we have people dropping tags  because of the changes. You people happy now? Leave this fuking server the way it was. Fuk the spawn camping bitches, bitching about spawn camping, that's what admins are for? Or maybe not!
