Tankers on Facebook

Heya, a lot of us have facebook accounts, actually I just realized theres even a page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/BZFlag/38808770766) with almost 200 fans... but I have no clue who all these people are. So if you'd like to add a few (guleague-) tankers on facebook, this topic is for you: Post you...

Re: Team Rating confusion.!??!

TLC might have lost before you matched them, but that wasnt entered yet. Now you match them and your new score is calculated. Somebody enters the match that happened before, TLC has less points now, the score for your match vs. them is recalculated which means you actually tied a weaker TLC than bef...

Re: ?, thru, what? wtf? etc.

People who use shot length 90 or 120 cheapen the game. Much less hand eye coordination is needed for that. Sometimes I get the impression you never read what other people type. I already adressed this some dozens posts before this one, but I'll do it again. You're proposing that combat strength is ...

Re: ?, thru, what? wtf? etc.

FS and smooth, one doesnt need to adjust fps to do the corner jump. I can do it two times out of three with 60 fps. There are lots of people out there whose computers just dont produce more fps or who like to play with lower fps for various reasons. Implying that someone is "hacking" when ...

Re: ?, thru, what? wtf? etc.

Saturos, I am saying use JUST the observer monitor. Not both. If you do this you can see the direction of the tank. You mean you would join as a regular player and additionally as an observer, then play the match by observing yourself? If I got it now... how would that help? Can one enable tank dir...

Re: ?, thru, what? wtf? etc.

Another situation I just thought of is the ability to use a 2nd monitor to login as a "random" player and the person playing the match would watch the monitor of random "observer." This would allow a player to get the direction of a tank and see other information, such as player...

Re: ?, thru, what? wtf? etc.

I get the impression you, smooth, never really saw a radar path. Having long shot lines is nowhere close a radar cheat. Seriously, the comparison is ridiculous. Far more ridiculous is the statement about 20% skill and 80% knowledge. Have you ever considered that league-skill is far more than dodging...

I dont see why some people always try to put every map in relation with GU. I mean, we feel honored that hix seems to be recognized as the prime map of BZ, but seriously: You dont play pillbox to get "perfect [...] GU training". You play pillbox because it is a fun map, in itself. It has n...

Re: Missile Wars corrupting New GU players :-)

As a rule of thumb, if you want to get better in GU, play GU. Playing ducati can improve dodging, but everytime I played ducati, my jumping was way off afterwards. Pillbox is pretty useless in my eyes because ducati has everything it offers, but with ricos. Anyway, if missilewar is fun for you, just...

Re: Radar type help

For me it has always been the enhanced option, mainly because its far superior over the normal view and because nothing else was available when I started playing. At some point the devs added the sorted style and I can see the sense in that, I even know a few people playing with sorted, but I still ...

You can download the recordings and watch/capture them on a local server. that involves additional work, time, and effort that i dont have.
