How can something that is supposed to be fun become so damned divisive amongst us?
1. stats & medals
2. ppls ideas of gameing differi stopped playing on our server months ago (still contribute monthly) cause of particular regulars who bhopped & the lack of teamplay (never met a fucker who can defend,
just flag hop) etc, my idea of gameing = skill and fun, not the ability to bind 500 key strokes to one button, exploit game engine flaws etc (using something not intented by engine developers)to be honest i have thought about doing the same as Wolf and moving on, as have a few other long standing xdc members. At the time i left bf2 i was totally disalusioned with xdc members, but understood their ideas of gameing are different to mine and went on to play a mans game.
to be honest 95% of ppl playing are stat/medal whores, which is fine but detroys any fun/teamplay.
Wolf has raised some concerns/issues which are valid and should invite reasoned disscusion.
Although i have often disagreed with some of Wolfs posts, at least he has the balls to speak/write his mind, this COMMUNITY would be poorer without him, we may end up like our server repeating the same maps (posts) each night, catering to the same crowd.
hope this random drivel makes sense
but now its going back to all serious again. Where peeps are only interested in points and medals and getting the next unlock.
hey Max m8 i wouldn’t stand for that if i was you 😆 😉
Oh and insane i’ll make a note to shoot with something else for a change 😀 But to be fair it doesn’t help that the anti tank class was sent to war with a fecking BB gun 😥 😉 And its the only defense against the damb snipers 👿
EDIT: just read noms post

um think this may be exagerating a bit m8. Don’t get me wrong i think the stats has spoilt alot of the game play but if you wanted stats and medals you would not be playing on the xdc server. MUCH easier servers out there if that was the only reason to play.
Personally i like xdc and our server….maybe i’m the type of player ppl don’t like but i certainly don’t feel the need to change my playing habits any time soon. Then again no one has said anything to me so i guess in our ‘community’ i am universally loved 😉
Unfair Fluff 😀 I play for the enjoyment not for medals and dam I didnt know you could mute people on TS! 😳 😀
not the ability to bind 500 key strokes to one button, exploit game engine flaws not the ability to bind 500 key strokes to one button, exploit game engine flaw
lol says the Counter Strike bind king!!!! 😀
Lets all have an RO night.. should be fun with all of us!!
THERE A JEEP RACE MOD!!!! BARGIN!!!!
But back on course…….
I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!

now, i’ve got that out the way! Sane, i had no idea i wound you up with the RPG’s in nam!!! Had i known i would of tone dit down a bit…..though it was a class i could play quite well which is most unusual for me 😉
Wolf, no need to hang up the tags mate, your opinionated and you voice that opinion………thats fine and dandy by me, theres nothing wrong with speaking your mind and it doesn’t seem a wolf thing to do to just run out on a discussion.
The very nature of the game with the stats etc does mean that it splits peeps into 2 camps; those who want the hardware and those who dont! Me, i couldn’t give a stuff, i’m just as happy to have a jeep race as i am to hang around a flag all game trying to keep it defended, but i understand that the more competitive amonst us like the challenge of gaining new unlocks, medals etc as it rewards their efforts ingame. How to resolve it is a different matter, for me personally it wouldn’t make any difference if the server was unranked but there again i’m not on it most nights like some guys and gals here, i guess some middle ground needs to be found……it did used to be fun on the BF42 server when we fecked about, i still have some fraps footage somewhere where we all went mental and tagged ourselves up as MPG, thats had to be one of the funniest nights………..well except for the MPG chaps and i think bumfluff who got the hump and fecked off 😛
Anyhows, whatever is decided is fine by me, i’d be happy to mess around on the server unranked for a few hours or else while peeps are fighting i’l just jump in a jeep and see if i can outrun messy’s fighter over to his commanders arty! 😉
The main point i think is not to fall out over all this! With upwards of 80 members, though not all active, its going to be impossible to keep all the peeps happy all the time, and its not much easier keeping some of the peeps happy some of the time…….discussion is good, its what makes us evolve and hopefully what will keep us doing what we do best…….running a decent server where people can come by at any time and have a tard free game………..who knows, perhaps those same peeps would also enjoy a “night off” from all the point collecting and may even relish a snipers only game or a jeep race around the sands of Oman.
WeT wanders off to pack away his RPG to placate insane 😉

you are universally loved fluff 😀
this is not a go at any xdc member…the game draws players into it, then teamwork/game objective goes out the window…in the hunt for next medal/unlock.
used to spend me time in 42 fixing other ppls tanks and defending cp’s
tried the same in bf2 and tended to be the only bugger defending, cause everyones out capping! then we have a huge merry go round..very team play oriented..not@=XDC=iNSANE wrote:
