INS Server Changes

[a pet rock]

Roger. It was a couple hours after the FF ON went live again from the downtime before I got the sprays sorted. I've tested in both servers since then and my custom spray wasn't allowed, though I would like to test the stock sprays just out of my own curiosity.

My personal fav is the kilroy was here, something about that big nose... And glad I was wrong about the spray thing.

What i find in a game like INS. Since it's hard to tell teammates, there is no mic when a teammate is talking above his head, and points are different. I have adjusted all hlx points and they way they work.

I have it so that you only loose 10 points for tk'ing.
I have min points awarded is 5(default 2)
I have max points lost as 20(default 25)
I have 100 kills to get regular points(default 50)

I also have kill streaks enabled, but dont give alot of points, so it doesn't encourage people to camp/killwhore/spawncamp, when they should be pushing for objectives, but are higher ranked, and scared to die and loose 25 points, after killing 10 and only getting 20 points(2 total for each).

The point of the game is to cap objectives, not get 10,000 kills without dying. I find the changes sorta help this.

Now we need a way to find/grab objective secured events, so we can award the most points for that. Not even sure if ins recognizes the players who cap points, but they must...I just can't find the event anywhere...

I don't pay attention to stats. At all. For me, capturing objectives is the only goal (and to have fun) and I don't think you even get points in the stats for capturing.

I was pleasantly surprised with the changes that were implemented on the servers. I actually like playing on the ff on server a lot more now (whereas before I usually stayed until I TK'ed a couple teammates and gave up). Dead chat with live teammates is a huge help.

Someone must have known what they were talking about/implementing...

Amen.. +25 for point cap! I absolutely hate having to beg people to actually stand on the point instead of running out looking for kills again. It gets even worse when they start to complain that their team is losing so much and you just sit there and mutter to yourself "Just stand on the stupid point for 5 seconds... is it really that hard of a concept to grasp?"

Yes!!!!!! Oh god yes!!!! its so frustrating and even more so when the deaf s.o.b's dont listen to you.

Thank you again for sharing. There is a reason why we listen to your advice. The #1 INS server could not belong to a more helpful guy.
