Hopeless 2 (v2.10 - v2.18)

Post by **zesuga** » 15 Dec 2010, 14:54

Hmm. landmine.
Is there anyway to sweep the landmines?
When i played CTF. i knew my they would put landmines on my base .
But what could i do? i waited and let simplysheikh go first. yeap he died.
Then i took my flag home .and tried to pick up the other one to score.
Put landmines beside flag? NOT GOOD.

Just do the same.

Because we want many warehouse customers, another v2.16 correction:

If you plant a landmine too close to the warehouse ...

You need to clear the browser cache (history) and to reload the game (webpage).

Remus, I've had some trouble with the mines. As soon as I placed them they exploded, without waiting the 5 seconds.
Thanks for reading.

Post by **Varex** » 15 Dec 2010, 23:18

and no, I'm not by the warehouse.

Remus, do you think you can add a mele feature?

Did you ever try to get in contact with Fox Mulder and Dana Scully?

Varex,

Sound working strange; mines insta-exploding

It sounds to me like you're trying to run a cheat program that's gone awry

Talk to Hero95, AKA the Ghost Walker. He might have some tips for you.

can we set our keys for landmine instead of L

The entire online database has to be extended if you want to save that key.
If I get many requests, it can be done.

Post by **Remus** » 16 Dec 2010, 10:02

Tanweer is lucky today.
Just clear the browser cache and reload the game.
You can redefine/save/load the LandMine key (by default "L").

Thank Remus

lol, Wolf! You know I'm not even smart enough to make a bad cheat program. Besides, I like challenges...they're exhilarating XD so there's no need.

decreased the number of those entering a map you already noticed, remus super game that I think is going to be full of new 2-map will be better than the camps do not have this map in a moment ago to fight bird smc good man, this game will never be found remus delete the game icon in the camp that I'm sick of smc it 's a lot like camping

Post by **Timberwolf** » 30 Dec 2010, 07:20

Jubbly doesn't have a bad idea, but make sure it's not Chip and Dales

I know manga likes to sing YMCA while playing, but the rest of us don't need to be tortured!

I think one of these new maps should be Elite only.

People need to strive for excellence here. If you can't get there - no biggie. But there should be some effort to assimilate into the environment rather than just screwing it up as-is.

Post by **manga** » 30 Dec 2010, 10:26

elite timber saying hello only connection to the camp, but this I think it will be unfair to the good you know I am one of the oldest players in this game for years, never stopped playing and now I can not enter this game as I do not think I'm wrong just some of them are former players, I think everyone should enter the camps bird is unable to remusla consider my message to the previous game, stick together, especially former players, many players no longer consider a remedy that I think

Post by **Timberwolf** » 30 Dec 2010, 11:17

Fair point.

But wtf?

Should 100% of this entire game be open to players if they have terrible Internet connection?

There needs to be some incentive to encourage people to have better Internet connections!

If Remus just keeps allowing everyone to play in every aspect of the game no matter what, then people are going to continue to take advantage of it!

Logic comes before fairness, because it's impartial and simple.

In some cases, all people have to do is shut off MSN and other pages to have better connection.

But what's keeping them from doing it? It's because they don't have to do it! They can log on with variable ping jumping from 150 to 900ms every 10 seconds, and the rest of us just have to put up with it.

Two new maps coming. One should be Elite ONLY!

Post by **Lenny** » 30 Dec 2010, 12:29

Giving the elite players something to combat these mines, May also have the desired affect.
Even if it's not just for elite players, There should be something to combat the mines.
Cool looking map Remus

Post by **Timberwolf** » 30 Dec 2010, 14:43

Maybe radar can be updated to detect mines? That way there wouldn't have to be any special unitasker mine detector. Or maybe it would be better with a mine detector.

I don't reallly know!

Or maybe the radar already detects mines.

I haven't bought any in a year, so I have no clue.

But a way to find the mines would be pretty cool. I agree with the Lennster

Post by **kaplan77** » 30 Dec 2010, 14:58

I think in 2011 I just add a very nice remus was very nice

Post by **Lenny** » 30 Dec 2010, 15:27

I think Radar would be the easiest to implement, But there are many things that could work.
Maybe with pro pack, Every time you re spawn or kill a chicken, You get 10 seconds of radar, To use when you see fit.
Leaving the radar in the warehouse, Just makes players place the mine next to the warehouse
Mines being left next to the warehouse, Over guns and ammunition or on re spawn area, Is happening allot.
With no defense.

Post by **Timberwolf** » 30 Dec 2010, 15:32

Yeah, that's pretty stupid. The mine in front of the warehouse is totally unoriginal and something that just defeats the purpose, in my opinion.

But...

It does have its advantages.

You can kill someone going for some armor/radar, and definitely keep people away from the mines.

In terms of brain power, a mine placed where you got it from is about a 0.1, well below Forrest Gump. But it's a surefire way to get a kill. And I guess that's all a lot of people want.

Personally, I want to put my mines where people think they're the safest -- then BOOM, it's a surprise!

But wtf do I know? 100-kill noobs beat me 20-3 these days.

Post by **Lenny** » 30 Dec 2010, 15:36

also i think placing the mine is too easy
Maybe having too crouch for 5 second? Would make things more interesting.

Timberwolf wrote:Personally, I want to put my mines where people think they're the safest -- then BOOM, it's a surprise!

Me too.

Having a 10 second radar, as your defense. TO USE WHEN YOU SEE FIT.
Then the Mine'd games really begin.

Post by **Lenny** » 30 Dec 2010, 15:52

Sorry i didn't mention this radar would only detect mines.

Post by **supreme** » 30 Dec 2010, 16:16

poor noobs!! haha, ask something else.. something cool.. these mines radar are for mucaht kurt not for you.. haha

Post by **Lenny** » 30 Dec 2010, 16:58

I think my suggestions, Would bring more strategy to the game.
Is that what noobs wont

I don't think so

Post by **supreme** » 30 Dec 2010, 17:03

if i would be at your place. i would ask something great including this haha.

Remus will buy me brand new pc for new year and will give you mine radar only.. cheers

Post by **Milan** » 04 Jan 2011, 20:21

I started to hate landmine, cause many of players get CHEAP kills, I hate when somebody kills me when I face with him and in that moment he plant landmine cause they don't know other way to kill me.

I would like if you can change something here, it isn't fair, opposite players is next to me and I get killed by his landmine and he doesn't? It's the same as RPG, I am not immune at my own fire. Or you make that we could be immune on RPG fire.
If noobs can kill me by planting landmine when they passed next to me than why I cannot kill them with RPG and to be immune on my own RPG fire.
Fking morons

You miss the most important part: the multiuser environment.
Everything is delayed with (your ping + his ping).
So if you are both moving, he seems to be next to you, but he is not.

But it's true: the Landmines have been designed for CHEAP kills.
Secondly, they have been designed for strategical kills.
And thirdly, they are a great weapon for those with good connection against those with bad connection.

I think I didn't miss that. Opposite player in that situation isn't dead only cause he has 5 sec. before landmine explode. I could plant landmine and I could jump on it till 5 sec. after that BOOM. I tested it. I came to one deadhead, I was standing there, plant landmine next to him and BOOM, he is dead and I am alive.

Please rephrase.
Did you find a bug?
Do you get killed in his "5 seconds"?

Post by **Timberwolf** » 04 Jan 2011, 21:29

If I'm walking in front of Milan and place a mine, he is killed instantly as soon as I put it down.

Because of this, players are getting these land mines only to be cheap kills. They walk by, press L, and BOOM - the opponent is dead and the person setting the mine doesn't take ANY damage at all.

It doesn't wait for the 5 seconds; it happens instantly. SO I do think this is a bug!

It should be 5 seconds to explode, regardless of who steps on (near) it!

Post by **Milan** » 04 Jan 2011, 21:30

Ok, imagine this situation:
You and me are in camp. You are standing at one place, you are not moving, I came to you with landmine, I stand next to you, like to kiss you

I am not moving at all, than I plant landmine and in moment when I planted it BOOM, you are dead I am alive, comprendes amigo?

Post by **Lenny** » 04 Jan 2011, 21:38

I agree, This happen too me once, We start to shoot at each other, He walk toward me, Drop mine, I Die he walked away.
These mines need some tweaks i think
