You know a server fails when...

[Flak]

You know a player fails when:

- He doesn't try to make it a fun place to be for all.

- He doesn't help newcomers to the game

Seriously, some people may not have a suitable localized UT3 to play, them may not able to read the manual. Give your helpful hands to them, that's a real unreal game.

These are the winnners.

Closing.

the countdown nodes are not useless, often they cause damage to the core without actually having to directly attack it.

[Sterling]

- everyone in your team seems to be content with letting the opposing team control the countdown node. Those nodes are completly useless, aren't they?

Oh god yes. Either no one goes to it or everyone goes to it, leaving the other nodes exposed.

I also get annoyed with count down nodes when you're the only one on your team defending it but a lot more on the other team are attacking it. Yet the other nodes aren't taken by your team.

well you have to take into account that we are probably gonna see alot of people who have never played UT before, hence what most would consider stupid questions. Instead of calling them names or having a childish meltdown, why not try to help them out. What this will accomplish is more players knowing what to do and will also keep those new players in the game. If every server they goto and ask a question and they have an idiot like the OP respond with "STFU Noob!" how long do you think they will stay online? Grow the community a player at a time instead of chastising someone because they don't have your "level" of knowledge about the game.

I agree, we shouldnt automaticaly demonize them, but still, reading on the comment with the core. I mean, COME ON. even if it's the first time one plays this game, the FOURTH MISSION in the campain is with a core. it explains ALL THE BASICS you need to win. I dont automaticaly insult these people, I just boot them if I can, in ANY game I play. There is a certain level of play that is expected once you click on that "multiplayer button". you dont have to be GOOD at the game you just HAVE to know the rules!

On a side note, you're playing basketball at a park on a saturday afternoon. It's a friendly competion, with bragging rights for the neighbourhood on the line, there is no money or prize at stake, just your honor and pride. Two guys show up and ask to join you guys. you ask them i they know how to play, they say yes. you let em in. game starts. you pass the ball to guy 1. he catches it. runs(not dribbles) RUNS with the ball to the basket, sinks it in and yells, ONE - ZERO!

what do YOU DO? or SAY?

I do agree that dude is being immature

I guess the gravity and seriousness of the subject of video games on internet forums eluded me for a short while. My apologies.

these top three represent the laziest players i've ever met. meaning, they did not TAKE the time to learn even the SMALLEST basics of the game. This I cannot forgive. the rest is debatable, as we cant learn EVERYTHING on a game that came out what, less than a month ago? (heck, i just started playing it yesterday! )

That's kind of the whole point of the thread, really. I don't care explaining things once or twice; but repeatedly it becomes annoying. I generally dislike having to explain things to people when all the required information is readily available.

- someone takes the orb to the enemy core.
*now, whoever does this, deserves a SEVERE BEATING with the impact hammer. REPEATEDLY!!

I did see someone do it. I asked him if he hoped to cap the core but he offered no explanation.

[nevaziah]

I do agree that dude is being immature, but there are some things I do agree with him on. these following three points dont necesarily meant he/she person is a noob, probably just lazy.

- someone asks how to use the hoverboard

- someone asks "what are those orb things?"

- someone asks "how do you repair vehicles?"

This thread fails because Lulzy:

-Has an apparent a superiority complex

-Has to boost his fragile ego over the anonymous internet and make fun of beginners

-Appears grossly immature

-All of the above

You could have summed that up by "lulzy is a troll", which I will readily admit to be. Still, unlike some people, I didn't attack anyone personally and you fail for realizing that making fun of people is all in good fun as long as it doesn't becomes personal.

[Fragger]

You are a n00b by even starting a topic like this omg

Try to help beginners instead of making fools of them...........

When i started to play UT back in 99, people also helped me alot etcetc, thats why the UT community is so great, dont you just love it?

Oh and btw, i dont read manuals and i dont play campains, i play UT online thats what its made for.

kthxbye

[Kurnous]

You know that a server is made of fail and n00bs when:

- BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

- BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

- HURR DE HURRR HURRRR NOOBS HURRR DURRR

Either stop playing on public servers, or go back to trolling /v/.

When the flag runner in Necropolis runs it back on foot THE WHOLE WAY.

Your Team mates push the "button" (ala Pressure) on Carbonfire and you're hopping down to get the Juggernaut, and then exclaim "What's that alarm all about?!?"

well... I do that


I have had team m8s stop and I have grappled and away we go... then I realise we are going back to enemy base...sigh

or I grapple and off we go to our base, only the first enemy my team m8 sees they go off draggin me behind to kill... gold fish spring to mind

so I trot on foot...well hover when its ok to do so


but on the theme of the thread...

vctf/ctf and the enemy are all dm'ing so one flag is usually enough, the manta flyer who when no one is in enemy base, goes looking for someone to run over instead of picking up flag... funny as hell... gota get frags... that wins games... never mind the need to cap the flag to win

If doing that is wrong, then I don't want to be right.
Actually I do get coaxed easily into explaining things if you keep asking after the first grumpy "RTFM" or "complete the campaign nubz".

- Players drive the Goliath over the bridge in Suspense.

i don't get this. i do this quite frequently and i'm making sure no enemy is able to get their goliath or raptor and i'm pwning everyone who tries to get out of their base to kill our flag carrier.
