dod_orange_fight_arena -- Need some clarification

[Magnum X]

As you know if someone boosts you up on to the box by the middle flag the axis can see and shoot into the allies spawn. I was just up there with a sniper rifle (not shooting into spawn) and was told to get down.. As far as I know the rule was that you could be up there but had to kill them after they got past the wall. I even saw some eGO's up there the other day with mg's and it wasn't a problem. So what exactly is the rule about this? Is it ok to go up there or not? If its not there needs to be some sort of barricade put up there so you cant get there.

Here is a picture:

By what I understand you could kill the 2 riflemen and the assault and that proner guy, but arent allowed to kill that mg guy until he gets to where the other guys are.

You are not allowed up there. Although it is allowed to boost because kendle blockes everywher youre not allowed to he probably hasnt gotten time to block this yet.

The orange server holds a very special place in our list of servers. It is basically a no-mans land, a free for all. Other than basic behaviour, just about anything goes in terms of gameplay on Orange; be it spawn killing, etc. Orange is a playground.

If there are nasty spots on the map that need attention, do a screen print, then load it into Photoshop or whatever and put a circle around the spot and some text as to the nature of the problem.

After you've done that, email it to Kendle. He's got a lot on his plate at the best of times, so he will get to it eventually.

Other than that, don't take orange too seriously. It's pure fun and one hell of a great way to cut loose.

well i tough everything in orange maps goes????

need boost to get up there should not be Blocked and leave it alone!

 

[SpetzNaz]

Due to the quantity and variety of orange maps, Kendle will never specifically go in to block areas on those. Additionally, I run the server on a separate box, and so Kendle will likely not get in there anyhow... especially because the mods he uses to make such changes, I have not installed there.

Regardless, other than being nice, no rules on that server apply. If you can get to a spot, then you can use it. If people complain about that rule, send them to me for a good spanking. I don't want to see eGO's enforcing spawn camping rules on that server, regardless of positioning.

 

[Baron Rojo]

so that spot is allow even to spawn kill?

 

[Mr.Smiley]

Btw Lifter, Nice nade...

Was that off topic?? Yes.........it was. Oh well....

 

[mister blonde]

Spawn camping is allowed on orange. Therefore a spot allowing you to spawn camp is legit. Like Red said, "it's a playground", no rules. Fast-paced killing only.

i have been on with several eGOs, captured all flags except the 1st flag of my enemy. instead of ending the game, me and 2 unnamed eGO's went prone behind their first. as they spawned we mowed them down. we did this for 2-3 minutes until it got old.. no need to sour the game. but.. i mean.. if i am allowed to go BEHIND where they spawn.. why the heck not be able to go somewhere and mow them down elsewhere..?

spetz, i appreciate the clarification. though i've never had any admin/eGO tell me to not spawn camp i would think it would be allowed if i could walk up IN their spawn and behind them.

And if i do get told different I expect to see that person come back from you with a tan behind. SPANKINGS FOR ALL OF THOSE WHO HATE ON ORANGE MAPS.

orange and flav ftw.

cheers every1.

oh and btw mister blonde i got a screenshot of u, be prepared to be added to my sig soon.

It can be taken care of easily.

Really? Wow since i started playing "and orange is almost the only server i play on sometimes" That has always been a no mans land, it it like the only restriction on the server. The main problem with the spot is its a 1 way wall. In that you can see the person but they are protected by an invisible barrier. TO me this seems like glitching a bit. I mean to have a spot where you can shoot and be 100% protected doesn't seem fair at all.

 

[Evil-Jester]

i agree with the guru above me

 

[PICK _EM_UP_JONES]

THAT SPOT WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN SCRIMS.

 

[mister blonde]

I just noticed you can see the enemy behind walls...so I now have to agree with Kathless, being that its now a form of a wallhack.

Oh, and are you using photoshop to make it look like you got me in ava the other day flava??

 

[flavoracid]

WOOOOOW! Kah makes a good point, that is amazing. i didn't know that spot was a one way wall.

In video game and 3D modeling terms that's called backface culling. What the render does is simply not render out the backside of things so it's less intensive on your vid card. However.. the backside of things is generally defined by what the user doesn't see.

Thing is... i guess your not supposed to 'see' that.. so it's not rendered. Yea, i guess that spot is kinda whack.

Statement retracted.

Flav, out.

 

[Creepingdeath=FL=]

[quote1195212484=Redshift]Other than that, don't take orange too seriously.
[/quote1195212484]

I have to take it seriously though. We scrim the Jones in this map next Saturday! :O

 

[flavoracid]

mister blonde... no photoshop - it's legit--

 

[Evil-Jester]

hehehe

 

[SpetzNaz]

Let me clarify my previous statement. In a situation where the enemy cannot possibly see or attack you, it's a glitch.. that IS illegal. I jumped into the map to test the spot, and now understand the complaint. Using a glitch isn't allowed.

Spawn camping in general, is fine there...
