Re: Communication plea
I know what you are say Delta. I too come from CS:S and Battlefield 2142. All I can suggest is to check you radar in the menu screen to see where allies are (or were) and keep asking for SitReps and giving them also, this is what I do if the comms get to quiet. And if i hear gun fire I will ask where that came from and ask if anyone is down (I know that this is stupid as a dead person can't talk to the living).

Re: Communication plea
i came from the Natural selection servers and communication was a requirement
you didn't have to have a mic but you had to respond and communicate with your team or you were removed from the server.
On that server most of the supporting members and regulars would always talk to any new people on the server to make sure they could communicate and give them a brief review of the rules. this was always done in a friendly manner, not just griping at them for doing something wrong....

Re: Communication plea
This is also how it is for the CoD4 servers..a mic is not required except to pickup the bomb, but communication is required.
But, alas, in a perfect world there would be nothing but players on our servers with a penchant for verbosity and a want for gaming perfection...however, we take what we can get, and kick the rest

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Clodhopper again.

Re: Communication plea
You need to calm the eff down k. I do communicate and apparently I probably should have stated I was being sarcastic cause "lol" doesn't cut it... Have you ever heard anyone say egressing? I've said it once and once no one understood I just kept using moving. So open your ears cause I always call out my contacts if I can.Sorry I only play Hardcore!

Re: Communication plea
Bump. Just a reminder. Past couple of days I've been playing, a lot of people have gone quiet, yet again.

Re: Communication plea
This is one of the main reasons I do not play on our servers. I think it deserves a bump as well. The sprinting out of spawn without the bomb or a plan.... is a whole 'nother gripe. Hell, when I confronted a tagged player about it, he told me "Theres nothing in the rules that says I have to follow the bomber's plan... or wait in spawn till there is one" Me not being an admin, was befuddled, left and haven't hardly been back since. The lack of communication, teamwork, and planning is alive and well... and doesn't seem to be changing... Maybe it will someday.

Re: Communication plea
i agree. i for one see it as a major problem on server 1. when i have played on server 2 i have seen it less and less. in my honest opinion i think that how we run the same ole maps that any other sever runs, we run into problems. i understand that there has to be certain things in place for us to have a ranked server, but at what cost???
i for one despise server 1 b/c of exactly what gogeta said......a lack of TG play. and whenever i try recruit a couple of people to the second server, i believe that play resumes to regular TG play.
so i know that this question has been asked. but since our COD4 community cannot listen and follow SOP's, why not try and place new maps on server 1 or infact just shut down server 1 and only have server 2???? i think that it would alleviate any problems that this community is having, b/c right now server1 IMO is literally a half a step away from a pubbie run and gun server.

Re: Communication plea
Hell, I had a kid blatently crack jump towards me over the stairs at grandmas house on overgrown.... tagged player too. When I said something about, an argument insued. I honestly couldnt believe I was arguing with a TG tagged player about whether or not he was allowed to crack jump over an object in order to get a kill while in mid air.... very off-putting.... He honestly used the "what if Im running away from you and I jump over something, is that against the rules" I had to school him on his own intentions and the failed attempt at proving me wrong... and left the server shortly thereafter.

Re: Communication plea
i hate to make comparisons but i am going to....... our CS:S server runs maybe three or four maps that are pub maps.....the rest are custom maps.
two reasons for this: help reduce the amount of pub players, and the stock maps are not very tactical!!! i see this in COD4 also....all the stock maps are set up for run and gun, no madder what style or version your playing (s&d, capture the flag...).
cs:s also has a realism mod so that it is NOTHING like the regular pub servers, slows you down and makes you work more as a team.
now all i hear about the second server is that "OH i don't like it!!!" why, b/c you cant go run and gunning and stack your kill count!!! i for one played a map on server 2 and didn't see ANYONE for four rounds, nor did i fire a shot. but what happened those four rounds is that it was a clean sweep for my team. personally i play to win, and win at all costs.... if that entails me not shooting someone and not seeing someone for four rounds....SO BE IT!!
as for the tagged players not following rules.....its a shame
its a shame that they do not realize that a.) your an admin of SEVERAL titles here at TG and your a damn Game Officer!!!! it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that ALL games here at TG are played the same damn way......WITH TEAM WORK!!!! AND BY FOLLOWING THE SOP'S!!!!
and that b.) this behavior wouldn't be here at all if they cared about their community. i for one know that CS:S has a status command that you can enter in the console of the game and it gives you the steam id of the player in question is there anything like that in COD4??
maybe some extended breaks are in order for people to understand that this type of behavior is not going to be accepted nor tolerated anymore. i for one, am in line and will lead the way....some eggs need to be broken to make our elegant omelet!!!!

ratio, even a couple TG'ers of whom I will not mention. Hell, I've even caught myself doing it a few times. This ALL leads back to the whole communication discussion that's happening right now. It's just... The quality of the server's communication was NOWHERE near what I expected from a TG server. It felt like TDM. :P Again, I'd like to reiterate that not all of you are comm-less. Thank you to those who are.
