What do you think. Thought id make this since there is one about it being in dust.
 
Personally, I think it's fine, and doesn't pose a problem to me
 
The whole purpose is to promote fun play, and i don't think it is conducive to eGO's mission to try and govern or limit peoples way of playing. Yes i understand when 10 people pick sniper on Karam it gets a little annoying but that's why we have in game admins to try and give some sort of regulation to the process. i don't think taking a global action like this is necessary.
 
PLEase for the love of insurgency take it out of those maps. It doesn't belong there and just makes everyone suffer because of people who have fun by sniping in a team of snipers. PLeeeeeaaaaaaassssssssssseeeeee TAKE IT OUT!
 
I say that we should take it out of BAS and BAR, and leave it in Dust. Playing as the only rifleman on an all sniper team just sucks...

I think quite the opposite is true. The purpose is to promote fun play. And I think there are many out there who find insurgency fun to play as it was intended, which does NOT include the !guns menu. There are plenty of other FPS games that I can play with options for any weapon etc.

There are those who may want to play insurgency in more of a "deathmatch" mode. I personally feel the Dust server fills that role.

We will never be able to please everyone. But where do you draw the line. Some people like !guns, but i think it is fairly obvious that !guns takes away from insurgency gameplay. Some people don't like friendly fire on either. Should we just turn that off as well? Where do you draw the line.

i love the guns menu but, one thing needs to be changed, get the snipers out of it, on some maps for exemple on karam, you don't want it to get a sniper battle exclusive.
 
im getting tired of this !guns stuff. how many threads are there about it now..? i say get rid of it. theres nothing wrong with INS as it is
 
I think leave it for awhile on BAS because the server is gaining some popularity

bas has gone up 4 ranks (now 4th) and has put 187ci to 9TH!!!
bar is 6th

It's irritating to see an entire force of snipers trying to up their score and not capturing the points. :facewall:

I think this is the main issue. Too many people take the SVD, even on maps where it isn't as effective.
 
do you really think people are going to stick around if you remove the snipers? people who come to the server because of the !guns menu are there because of the !guns menu. removing items from it will just sent them back to wherever they came from.

ive been up all night so im getting tired and grumpy so im sorry if im repeating myself or not making sence. this seem like a was of time. you want to attract more pubs with a !guns menu but you want to then remove the guns that seem popular from the menu and you think this will keep the pubs coming to our servers. whats stopping them from going back to wherever they came from? and the regulars who dont like the guns menu? what happens to them?

end rant.
 
Simple easy answer to this question is leave it on BAS and Dust 2 server that way BAR is original. That way if you hate the !guns you just don't have to play in BAS which is ranked our lowest our of the 3 so I basically think it should be kept on and for a bit longer to really see the effect it has on population of the server.

+1 What he said!
- the sniper part!
I think people like me abuse the sniper option to much! so it should be removed! Ins maps just don't have enough room for 5 snipers but a Ins mapper named Hardcell has a few sniper maps including a new tug of war sniper map


Tug of war sniper map is a basic design and concept. It has both teams spawning on opposite sides of a map
-Marines spawn near alpha
-Ins spawn near charlie
Each team must capture all 3 points in order to win the game

The map is a dress with a few sand dunes and and patches of knee high grass.
The only place to hide is behind some sand or in the grass

*The map has mortar launchers which you can walk up to and just press your use to send some destruction over to the enemy side of the map!

-thats not the real name of the map im not sure what it is i think its called trenches 10 or something but i will make sure and try to get the map from the guy so we can possible use that on eGO for training class with RT or scrims with each other or other clans

EDIT: Tried to vote to take it out but I didn't have a 'security token'
 
How about we leave the !guns feature and limit the sniper class. Maybe a max of 4 snipers per side at any given time?
