An American-only Setting

How about we have a numbed down game for american servers...

I've played on 5-6 US servers for sometime, all I hear is constant abuse (f***, s*** etc.), expect nothing less from most (arrogant) americans.
It seems the majority of these players can't grasp the concept of very basic teamwork at the simplist level in any shape or form.

And I thought Blueyonder UK : natural selection was poor.

The funny thing about this is, Flayra balances the game on this bs, how about you check how the top clans play (no... not sYn) in clanbase. Or perhaps get some playtesters that have a clue.

    I don't have a problem with servers like that, and seeing as to how I live in America I find that odd.
    BTW, just because they aren't nice(read: are idiots) doesn't mean that they are American, how do you know they weren't impo...

    Y'know what, this will probably get closed off anway so...

    Don't go stereotyping people until you've met who you're stereo-typing.

    Please please tell me this is your segue to a match of sYn vs. NG? I will drop everything I'm doing to watch that match happen.

    In the meantime...I suggest you find a slightly more diplomatic way of voicing your opinions, or you'll find large parts of your posts erased.

    Trust me when I say that America doesn't have a monopoly on jackasses. Once had a Spanish com have a go at me because I couldn't understand his spoken commands! Sorry, I'll just go learn a new language then is it?

    sYn vs. NG

    Well i've seen sYn play before they found out the tactics of the top clanbase clans, no way did they have the intelligence to exploit the best tactic possible before they saw us at work. (I was in one of the top - original clans that came with a variety of tactics)

    <b>** Be nice or you're out of here. This is your last warning. **</b>

    It's not about ripping off other clans, it's about predicting these tactics *before* you even make the patch.
    I've took apart this game, studied every map in depth, and to be honest, your attempts at balance are amusing, to say the very least flayra. As proof of my statement you should notice the player base for natural selection is dropping pretty sharply with it's sheer repetitiveness.

    How about you consult some hardcore NS players before 1.04 is released.

    Sure, what i'm saying is pretty harsh, however I am offering my time to talk with you before 1.04 is released and some potential 'hardcore' testing of every old/new tactic with NG, DW and my clan. I aint fussed if I speak to the o' great flarya as some may consider you, I'm just hopeful the game will reach it's full potential.

    Hahaha, are you sugesting that sYn looked at any of the clanbase clans?

    The only euro play we have ever seen is a few hours on the DW server this week to see what euros are up to. We have a scrim sceduled with DW this week sometime so we'll see how godly clanbase is.

    the fact sYn seems to like spectating clanbase clans, yes, I do
  • AcKzAcKz Join Date: 2002-11-27 Member: 10079Banned
    So, let me get this straight. You think Flayra only listens to us? Or the 10x amount of pubbers that play this game? Think before you talk bud.. and don't bring sYn into your garbage
  • AcKzAcKz Join Date: 2002-11-27 Member: 10079Banned
    Are you talking about the one match i spectated? Like yesterday? lol. Or are you referring to the pubs that we play on? Everyone knows the good strats are in pubs.

    so, sYn specing one clanbase match yesterday is the basis for our strategy for the last 2 months... give me a break. We were doing new stuff when you euros were still rawkin the 2hive lockdown.

    Hrm maby we came up with a strat or 2 in the over a hundred scrims we did in the first month.

    lol, you guys make me laugh.

    I've seen how you play, and no, your tactics aren't that tuned. In fact they're a joke.

    What, your the one ranting to spectate the game like 500 times, yes they told me.
  • AcKzAcKz Join Date: 2002-11-27 Member: 10079Banned
    Yea, I did want to spectate the game. Is their a problem with spectating a game? Flayra enjoyed watching it too, he said you both played very good. A bunch of feedback from a few clans as well. They're glad that euros dont lock down hives, you have some common sense. Good job for breaking the stereotype
  • FatKaoFatKao Join Date: 2002-11-03 Member: 6385Members
    Also, we only let Eats post crap demos that don't show all our strats. And i don't think i've seen you "in our games, specing our strats."
  • Rico1Rico1 NS Oldtimer Join Date: 2002-05-24 Member: 664Members
    Hmm, well, I must say this thread is complete garbage, and i would'nt mind seeing it locked, or even erased for that matter. A good clan does not flaunt its "skill" it shows it. And so far, all i have seen here is just talk and talk and well, insults to other clans and the such, and that IMHO is a big no-no, and DEFINITELy not the way to gain a developer to listen to you.

    They've actually never specced us. I guess all though srims we did (200+) were very recent, and we all did his strat.. or something? We've used that forever, rofl

    I, for one, have no clue what the hell any of you are talking about. No, stop, don't pm me, because the truth of the matter is that I dont care.
