Gene Inari Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Should I call the waaahhmbulance for all the cries of stacking and the like? If we can't handle 4 halfway decent people on one side, then what hope do we have of doing anything Comp related? Nevermind the fact it makes us look like a load of complaining whiners that can't take a loss. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 ^Hey, the whole entire enemy team was SFO while my team was like, 4 SFO and 6 pubbers. That is when stacking is just :HHH. After everyone left I had some fun on Sawmill with thunderflare/Ajc/someguy and another friend (not SFO). I think I'm starting to like Scout. But I will admit I had a lot of fun the whole night, even with all the crazy stacking or whatever you want to call it. It was just a bad night for everyone I guess. I suspect a lot of us had an ehh day due to they way we were acting and all. I dunno. Tomorrow will be fun, guys. Scourge, nooo don't leave me all alone. Who will I Über?? Who will constantly call for Medic Medic Medic until I heal you… who will high five me and beg me to use a mic?? Okay, too dramatic. More seriously, don't quit SFO TF2. It was just a bad night. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"User" Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 This is beginning to sound like a broken record with the stacking and complaining, can't we all just suck it up and play? If a scramble is REALLY required then take a vote at the end of the round. It's getting really tempting for me to cancel scramble votes that occur during the minute of the round....

Firebug Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 If Zero can type in his signature color then so can I. Stacking doesn't seem like a problem that will be fixed anytime soon. Every time I take a break from SF-O I see stacking when I come back. Could anyone tell me if it's better when I'm not playing? Implementing a forced random assignment might be a good idea. At the very least it'll make it so no one can be blamed for stacking. We can just blame the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thu'um Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 i didn't mind, That deffense on moutian lab was boss, the best part of anygame is winning when the other team should have won. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Yeah, I have to agree with Ajc and N. I guess stacking is a part of the game now and we can't do anything about it, so we shouldn't constantly complain anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Inari Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Or our top people can show a little consideration and switch sides if they see the side they're on is stacked. I've switched a couple times when I've seen it happen, doesn't always help, but it's worse than just going with the rolling team. That and team-scramble and auto-assigning and auto-balancing are outright broken. They do not solve the problem 99% of the time, so stop relying on it. The best way to go is what I just suggested.

The Shaper Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 My game was good, that's all that matters to yours truly. I might go get a USB headset for tomorrow. We will finally be able to hear your sexy voice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"User" Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Today was good for me. I might go get a USB headset for tomorrow. I've been needing a new headset for a while now. I have two of them, one doesn't have a mic and the other doesn't have a loud enough volume and the sound distorts because of a defective potentiometer.

Milkyway64 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Alright you whiny turd burgles, it's time for me to repeat something AGAIN because it seems to go ignored every time I say it in-game and out. Stacking is not a problem. Stacking has not BEEN a problem ever since ZDMC stopped actively clinging to whatever side Zero was on. That 'clan war' stopped as soon as they respectfully saw they were ruining our brofun because we didn't go to game nights to MLGPro mode all night, and you know what from then on I've seen equal parts ally and enemy amongst all their members that play. I valued firebog as much as I fear him, and Zero remains my rival only half the time, the other half he is the Zero (lol) to my Megaman X. And I'm sick of hearing about it, to stack is to deliberately form teams where one has a significant advantage over the other. If the cards fall so that one team has 1-2 more of the "good" players than yours does, then suck it up, random chance is at fault and it's not a deal maker or breaker. I've had Zero, Fureox, Rob, Gene, DZ, AND me all on one team before and we still got -rolled- even though we outnumbered the other team in all-stars. Point is, we haven't stacked in a very, very long time, and given we have a regular playerbase of about 19 or so, Gene/Rob/Me wanting to do shenanigans together is HARDLY a game breaking stack, nor is Fureox rolling with Zero. You're just all going to have to lrn-2-play and stop the QQ, take things as they are dealt, and if teams really DO happen to be unfair like last week's egypt, then either jump to the winning team and enjoy a pubstomp, or alert us so some of us can jump ship, like I do often. Constant Auto scrambles make it hard to actively know who is on what team, you know. We are not doing it on purpose. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 and if teams really DO happen to be unfair like last week's egypt, then either jump to the winning team and enjoy a pubstomp, or alert us so some of us can jump ship, like I do often. Yeah, everything else you said is perfectly fine, makes sense and all, but this… I don't cry or whine when I think the teams are a teeny bit stacked. I only "alert" everyone when the teams really are unfair, such as quite a few rounds last night. Hardly anyone wanted to jump ship and the teams stayed unbalanced until a majority of players left and it kinda balanced itself out. It's just not fun at all when you know you have absolutely no chance in a round. I still try to play and help my team and win, but it's futile when I know the teams are stacked, have alerted everyone, and no one has helped. Yeah, I admit, I do call stax sometimes when they aren't really unfair, but slightly stacked IMO, and I'll try not to anymore. And if the teams continue to be stacked then I guess I'll just keep on playing, fun or no fun. (I play TF2 to have fun and it is no fun when the teams are unfair and you're just getting rolled or you are just rolling the other team.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"User" Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I'm tempted to record today's event and upload it to Youtube like I did with my first replay or at least part of it. File size might be a problem though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Monroe Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 So game night or no game night? I'm kinda losing my interest in TF2 ever since I have Killing Floor and Serious Sam complete pack. Man if you wanna play other stuff, then go ahead :B I didn't play last night because I was RPfagging :V 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZComposer Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share Posted July 14, 2012 Guys, a scramble vote is not a scramble. While I was playing, there were only a couple of actual scrambles. Just vote no if you don't want it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"User" Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Sorry I left very early, I've been dealing with a lot of drama recently as some of you know and it kind of showed in my playing ability when I do things like miss three straight shots on two separate occasions when CHASING a scout. Romulan, your advice on the models sounds pretty good but I think it would be better if I had a cursor that was a different color so it would be much easier to see. I might need a few other custom add ons as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firebug Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Joined late but had fun while I was there. Need class limits for Engy (to stop SentryTurtle Fortress 2 from happening) and Sniper (so we don't have four on offense all the damn time). Also suggest removing Spy limit (honestly, there are times when we NEED a competent Spy to break SentryTurtle Fortress 2, and we can't get one because the two we have are taken and they're both terrible.) I'd rather have more Spies than more Snipers, at least even if they're bad they keep the enemy distracted and/or busy while the offensive classes can push.

Robert Monroe Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 We do have an engie cap, at 3. Didn't know we had a spy cap though 8V I take it tonight's game was better? I missed it because I fell asleep. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Yes, tonight's game was awesome! There was almost zero stacking until Hightower and and that was pretty brief. I had a lot of fun tonight. Can't really think of any highlights, but it was just fun all night. Question, everyone's thoughts on Junction? I nominated it and we went there and everyone seemed to dislike it, but we played it for a while anyway. I love the map. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scourge Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Joined late because I was shipping ship hull parts from somewhere in Kusari space to planet New Tokyo in Freelancer... Sorry about that. Anyways, fun time tonight, stacking was only a minor issue, coldfront was just 3 SFO-ers on one team surrounded by pubbies that were too busy building sentries back at the last point while we briefly owned the middle, and staring at wall textures when they weren't doing that... So I was a little irritated... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junction has a reputation for being a VERY confined chokepoint spammy map where stickyspam rules. That said, I like how Junction looks and tbh I was never annoyed by it.
