Think I'll pass on the TvT

Well tonight was the second or third time to play TvT and I got to tell you it sure is annoying to be one of the last guys on your side and having two or three seagulls flying around your head.I can only imagine they were opposing players already eliminated trying to help their teammates. So yea I guess I'll give it a pass. At least the bots don't cheat.

Re: Think I'll pass on the TvT

That is a really good point dave, and it's just common sense not to fly around a live player when you are a sea gull.
I haven't gotten to play too many TvT yet, but I had assumed that the mission designer would have made it so you would be in spectator mode and not as sea gull. That was how it was in the mission the time I died.
Do you remember the mission name, and we will look into it.

Re: Think I'll pass on the TvT

This happens quite a bit in TvT and is really annoying. I know you're dead and maybe you're bored, but please don't ruin it for the rest of us who are still playing. Hopefully we can remove this from all TvT maps.

Re: Think I'll pass on the TvT

Just tell them on local VON to get away from you if theyre bothering you. If they dont comply, report it to the admin as soon as its done and he should do the appropriate actions.

Sometimes I goof around when I know a mission is almost done and go fly around the heads of players Im familiar with and know dont have a problem. But I wouldnt purposefuly piss someone off by flying around them even if were geting pissed.

Also the 'seagull cluster' is a great way to let an admin know its time to end the mission cause there is only 1-2 left.

Re: Think I'll pass on the TvT

Agreed, it should be general knowledge to not be flying around ANYBODY as a seagull unless it's ednos, but even then. But sometimes that's what you get when you have bunches of pubbies on all the time.

Re: Think I'll pass on the TvT

It can't be that hard to get rid of the seagulls from any mission. The real issue is that when respawning isn't set to "BIRD", you can join in progress.

Re: Think I'll pass on the TvT

on human shield, if you switch to flying mode your a butterfly.... ALOT less obtrusive (very small and doesnt make a sound), should see about converting all PvP spectators to butterflies in the future....
