I went on at 3:15 and noticed that gold have deciced to cap reds thats fine. But the thing thats not fine is that one of them made a red character and checked if there was any playes in s2-12 i think this is cheating and golds should be punished some how. I have nothing against golds but that is a form of cheating a should be stopped.

G_Jester, that's a flame, and is inappropriate on this webboard.

One person did this, and you claim an entire team is cheating.

The issue has been raised and commented on by the devs in a less flammable thread.

This thread violates the CoU:

If you're going to complain about a game incident, it should be in a well-thought-out thread in the RolePlaying forum.

You can't punish all of gold for one persons actions. Anyway I have seen both blue and red do it so it's not just a "gold problem".

Flame or not, thats a legit complaint. We need to do something about nation hopping soon. Yes, red and blue cheat too...though I have seen gold do it more than any other nation. What concerns me is if it was vets or not.

/me dons flame retardant suit and moderator proof helmet

/me points at his little "One nation per character" bumper sticker.

It does happen a lot, though. When blue got our [only] cap, every gold online logged onto a blue char and took a mil.

"When blue got our [only] cap, every gold online logged onto a blue char and took a mil."
------------------

now that's cheap and just plain wrong. :(

one nation per account sounds like a better idea all the time.

Yes they did rogue.
SF when we was trying to cap red logged on as red.

I don't mind golds trying to steal the flag when we get it out of s2, it's certain people switching nations that bugs me.

THAT is messed up

I do have a gold character, i don't cheat like that with it, but i'd gladly give it up for 1 nation per account.

"It does happen a lot, though. When blue got our [only] cap, every gold online logged onto a blue char and took a mil."
Like blues didn't do much more and it was 2 gold players.
"I do have a gold character, i don't cheat like that with it, but i'd gladly give it up for 1 nation per account."
Yeah really

That's is WAAYYYY better than moving the turrets. I mean we can check 12/2 ourselves.

Okay let me get this straight. Someone from Gold logged on as Red to check to see if s12 and s2 were clear? ROFL!! How is this cheating again? How is it any different than a Gold player flying into s12 and s2 and checking for Reds? It's just a quicker way, big freakin' deal! Demining is a much bigger problem that needs to be fixed. This complaint pales in comparison with other well known exploits.

"That's is WAAYYYY better than moving the turrets. I mean we can check 12/2 ourselves."
Mmm, then why were blue turrets 2k out? Oddly enough right before gold started trying to cap in a group?
How rare!
"That's is WAAYYYY better than moving the turrets. I mean we can check 12/2 ourselves."
And sf LOVES to hang around in blue TEAM chat, notice the word TEAM, that means blue team chat is meant for blues to hear, not golds, playing without SF on makes it more fun.

/me thinks removing CTF will solve tons of problems.

CTF is really the only object of the game. it shouldn't be removed. the station defenses, however, need to be completely immobile to prevent other teams from moving them. that or one nation per account is implemented.

Are 1 nation accounts going to be necessary in the long run?

1) Capping will be gone
2) An advanced chat system will be put into place allowing far more control of who's listening to you.

Yes it's a pain in the but, many people opportunistic and switch teams. Which can be really annoying, but I don't feel like it's a long term problem. Maybe just for a period have 1 nation accounts?

it's a MMORPG, so it doesn't have to have goals, and missions probably will be the goals. CTF is temporary anyway.

/me brings out a big carton of gerber's baby food

20 creds a jar! only 20 cred!!


Tak, wanna join me in on this? we'll get RICH!

I'll take the carton!

mmm banana

mmm micellaneous fruit mushings

mmm pie mush

Arolte, you wanted to know how having a teammated switch teams to scout is any different than just having gold go into 2/12?
There is a WORLD of difference.
If they switch teams, not only do they scount without being shot, they also do not alert red, also they have the ability to go into 2 and "bump" the defenses way back.\

However if gold were to send a scout into 12, Red would immediately know that something is up. they also have the chance of killing the scout before they can see what 2 is like.

Hmmm, logging on as a char to get the flag-cap bonus is kinda cheap.
Using a char to spy on another team is pretty lame too.

I suppose imposing some sort of penalty of only allowing 1 char used per day or only using a single team for X amout of time would probably help.
