Things tend, no matter what the intention, to become competetive in the end. Not saying all matches/players are like this, I've been in some great fun matches where noone felt the need to want to "out perform" their opponent. It was generally a great shoot out. :) I don't think this would ...

naw

I like playing with anyone who's open for chats.
The community is alot more enjoyable when people are talking.

There are alot of people I enjoy playing with/against so I won't name any, but those are my reasons.

And to do this effectively, you'd have to learn to use your radar effectively.

There's soo much more to BZ then people first think.

There are, however, some league servers that you can play on, and you will find more team effort there. Thank you for remember this, I forgot. But I looked at the leagues, the 3, and looks like the teams that are accepting players are just inactive. And I'd like to go to a team with at least 4 play...

What is a "hiring event" if I may ask?

First off, don't go out of your way to to get someones respect for the wrong reasons, ie. Sucking up to them so you can obtain privileges, this is seen as being fake. BE YOURSELF. Be generally nice If you wanted to go out of your way to do something for someone, because you want to help them, then t...

Sniperman hosts them.

Other Australian/New Zealand hosters include(d) "a dead man", "Grans Remedy", and I forgot the name of the hoster that hosts "www.mantheran.com"

I do believe that geno can become a problem. I've often become to fustrated to continue when my team is dominated by the "Geno Lords". The discussion that CTF's become "CTG's" (Capture the Geno) whenever a genocide flag is present, comes up more often than not. if it's ctf, then ...

I like lil dog

Alot of my idols play GU.

As best you can.
If you can't, tell them your situation.
I tend to get heated, I wouldn't recommend that approach.

They really shouldn't do anything if you're below the limit, but if they do, bad luck really.

It would usually be hard for Australian/New Zealand players to make the time anyway, however, now that school is off, we're sure to be around. We would, speaking generally, love to participate but understand the troubles it can and probably will cause. :roll: If only we were organised enough to star...

Badgers and Hix.

Yeah I am also, never used to.

Looks like this problem has got a few of us.

I had a quick look at it, it's not bad. A few issues though. You might have to raise the bases, they might be the same height as the floor and this causes the bases to "flicker", try raising them a little bit. Also when I loaded the map, the teles either lost their links or you've linked t...

but i worked hard on this map and u said the reason ctfs are symetrical is because they're better that way? ok then! i will change it to ffa. Well, if the map is symmetrical, it's fair for both teams. No side has an extra block to hide behind or extra wall to protect their base. Having bases at dif...

Stop plotting against me!


*Abducts Badgerking so he cannot add Rogue Geno

I personally would like to keep it the way it is. Badgerkings is no dodging map, however, each player does have his or her own playing tactic.

I like the 5 shot spray.

250 on a good day.

I was at tavern.Rkubi.ee and my lag was about 400.
I think that that is because of a bad connection and myself being so far away.

As for Mari's server, I asked him and he didn't reply.

I think it's time you go investigating on your own.

sniper15 wrote:cool, what kind or flags

There aren't any flags, it's just a map.

abomnable_lemon, CTF's are best symmetrical, with one exception and that was a BattleField map created by some very skilled mappers.

Try resizing some of the objects, and if you can, learn to test your own maps.

Zac wrote:if i am in western australia does anyone know if ill be laggy there or not

You referring to the California server?

I'm in South Australia and my lag used to be around the 200 mark, IIRC. So, yours should be pretty good there.

Better than most servers up anyway.

When you play HiX your teammate needs you to get a flag from middle, so you usually have to "battle" someone to get the flag In relation to Hix, and possibly other maps, I see great tactics that could be performed from this idea. I've always wanted to intercept a passing flag. I'm sure it...

Looks very interesting, nice planning!

If it's a CTF you're going for, try keepin' it symmetrical. Maybe it was symmetrical, I couldn't tell, hehe.

Will you allow for cars to drive on the ground or can you only use the roads?

heh, I think it looks pretty cool!

However, it sure has made the map especially hard to see.

You're pretty much good, unless you live in Australia
