Map Exploits
« on: December 17, 2016, 10:22:24 AM »
Since apparently it needs to be said:

Players are NOT allowed to abuse the maps to gain an unfair advantage. This includes throwing cleavers through walls and windows and planting buildings in areas other players can't destroy them (which seems to happen a lot)

Doing so will open up the possibility of getting kicked from our servers if you are warned by an administrator to stop doing it. I don't want to hear any more excuses of people saying 'they don't see it on the rules'.

Make a vote among the admins and if it passes, add it to the rules.

Yeah, I know. Or at least, soon enough.

The decision was already decided in our last meeting a few months ago. However, none of the heads wrote it in the rules.

Certainly you should be more clear and specific as you can build sentries in certain areas of the mario kart map that all users can access but if a sentry is put there it can't be access easily

Shitmas, the only thing you stated was exactly what sentries were built to do. If you played on the Mario kart map enough, there's only one certain spot people shouldn't be putting sentries.

i can name three places where sentries can be abused
1.hills (the most known one)
2.inside pipes (where spies can't sap shit)
3.inside the other's spawn (by buying noclip and placing sentires and shit down)
what i was suggesting is that you rephrase what you said because i garantee every map has a place for "gain an unfair advantage" it's called a choke point.

Shitmas, I've played on every map at one point or another, and they are pretty well balanced. Also, in two of your examples, the sentry can still get destroyed by other players through regular means. And in our maps, it's actually easy to clear a choke point. So obviously, your first point is the one that WILL get you kicked if you fail to comply when an admin tells you to not build in there.

And what you need to do, is quit making it seem like I don't know what I'm talking about, because my instructions are very clear, even provided examples.

Let's just drop the topic. Locking it as well, since this goes better on the discussions due to the constant conversation.
