Because you're a fuckwit for not having a recognizable name, and for having a perfect bombing run across their vehicle station (With people on it, no fucking less) wasted with that shitass, nobody-ever-hit-shit with it gun.

Wow first fucking day of it being up and Delphi already throws a bitch fest.
The server wasn't passworded.
It was not a regular name seen around EC, thus, I suspected pubber blood in his veins.
After 20 minutes of crashing horribly with the bomber, I finally get a good run with a bomber, and he's shooting that crappy bellyturret stuff that never hits nor kills anybody.

Delphi throws a bitch fest about Tribes when he isn't even playing Tribes.
I'll bet he can be driving down the street and just randomly start screaming about people ducking behind cactuses to avoid missiles.
It's not something people hear about.

One would think he might have picked up on that... But Yesterday was actually my first day playing Tribes 2. I never bothered to buy it, because Tribes 1 was so bad with the cheaters. I put up the EC thing, because I noticed the server was not locked, and did not want some fuckwit thinking I was a random pubber.

I'd rather have no bots and few people than dumbass bots which just end up teamkilling you and serving as fragbait for the enemy teams.

But there is like... Nothing to do when there is only a handfull of people.
You spend forever just trying to FIND people to shoot. Not to mention it makes CTF kinda lame because you can basically just pass each other with the flags constantly.
Environments are too large for the games with so few people.
Tribes2 Bots are rather stupid, but it's better than nothing.
Or better yet: SpoonBot lets the bots use vehicles. Tatsukaze fucked around with this message on 04-21-2004 at 09:16 PM.
It's not something people hear about.
I know that those with the ISO would have installed from it, and kept it mounted for whatever reason, but I thought I had to keep mine in.. This is good, I suppose.
To the seasoned players, would you mind not destroying gens and then camping them? Our games average 4v4s and such, making it really hard to take back and repair generators when there's a single cloaker just running around killing whoever comes up to repair it. How can we get the sensors, turrets, weapons and whatever to get an enemy turtling in our base if the gen's being camped by that same enemy (or worse, more enemies)?
Most new players have a hard time even finding the repair pack, let alone reach the gen, kill the turtler and fix it up. I'm not exactly new to the game, but still have a hell of a hard time against Maradon and Kegwen combined. (I still hate you guys. >_> 
And, of course, while everyone is trying to get there, another veteran runs up, takes the flag, and skis away before you can say, 'Shazbot'.
It's simple, really. Games are too small to make it worth destroying the gen and then camping the enemy base. Public games are boring as hell because everyone does that... Get in, nail your target, then get out of the base taking out the most people you can get, or something. Yesterday's game was awesome because no one was being an asshat camping the enemy base.
That's all. Hope you guys are reasonable, or you'll kill off all the interest from the Nina fucked around with this message on 04-22-2004 at 10:33 PM.freeloaders new players.

1) Camping the gens is not an indefensible strategy, if you're smart. Any good stealther will be carrying the ELF, disc or plasma, and shocklance. You start with the disc, chaingun, and weenie blaster (which is a vastly underestimated weapon and lethal indoors). As a simple matter of loadout, you stand a better chance in a head to head dogfight.
Keep your guard up as you repair. A trick I use is to start repairing, then mousewheel down (or press your switch weapon key). You won't switch as long as you're repairing, but the second you let go of the fire key and release the repair, your weapon will pop into hand. Also, keep your back to a wall, and keep the gens between you and any avenues of approach.
2) I, personally, find it extremely lame and cheap to camp the gens very long, so I do agree with you to an extent. I'll stick around for one or two kills unless the repairer to be seems particularly skillful, then I'll mess around with him more.
3) I try not to go too hard on people, I know I'm good with a disc and the shocklance and that this irritates people, but if I don't play seriously then the game won't be fun for me, either.

Hmm, I never do. Should I? I usually just use the plasma gun to blast shields down on generators, sensors and whatnot o_O

Knock yourself out weapon-wise, it's just more fun when we can have our own weapons, if you see what I mean

I find the ELF indespensible for a stealther.
You can take out everything faster, plus you can zap people down in a dogfight and level the playing field since you're not carrying an energy pack.
It's primary use is for those goddamn motion sensitive indoor base turrets though, heh.
