People are disregarding the point of this game

Agreed, someone said "Players are hardcoded"

Anyways, I've noticed there are no smacktards on the =]H[= server past 11:00 PM(So I game all night and sleep all day, so I can actually get in some good rounds). Play late at night, I guarantee there will be a drop in noobs, hopefully not a drop in players.

Choose the servers you play on, and squads you play in, carefully, and you get alot less problems

I think today was just a really bad day for PR servers.

I tried for hours to find a good squad/team/server. it was a lost cause. It happens every now and then, sometimes all the moron PR players play at once. Like others have said just stick it out.

If you do play on Australian servers I can guarantee you this is a far shot of what it is actually like, people talking to that like each other on bigD would be removed instantly. Also, I'm guessing your one of the people who punishes every time your accidentally killed?

I understand your angry at the moment because hey, the game just isn't played like it used to be played. bigD is holding a very large campaign soon, why don't you sign up to that when it comes out? Anyway, most of the stuff you claim just wouldn't go unpunished on our servers.

*This is of course if you play on Australian Servers :P"

yeah go the aussie servers !!! sorry oh yeah back to the point.. if you come across someone like this try and reason with them be kind if that dont work and they just want to be a ignoriant prick then report them to the Server Admin i know on the bD servers they will be quickly sorted

It was always "RTFM you smelly noob,"

Smacktardery is at it's peak on Aussie servers though. The other day I was manning a 50 overlooking the fort on Archer suppressing the AR snipers up there so we could effectively fight for the caches. Until some faggot got in my technical and drove it off. He got out, and I moved it back, but he did it twice more before I TK'd him.

It's as though dozens of genuine Wumwuts are signing up for PR.

have you tried? XD lol yeah i'm seriously considering joining a clan these days just to get into a passworded server without idiots who SL with no mic and grab a sniper kit.

(i know this isnt the suggestion forum but bear with me)
for the SL problem, we can always discourage it one way, there are only 2 kits that anysquad leader should spawn with and that's SL scoped or iron. Anything else is useless by comparison and a waste of time to spawn with. If one could make it so the SL can't spawn in with any other kit. he can still go grab other kits but now we wont have some noob who hasn't bothered to read the manual create a squad, spawn the first thing he can and grab some other kit, now he'll have to go Via the squad leader kit.

this will have several effects, first off people learn that as SL the officer kit is what is essential for you to spawn with (even if they dont yet know how to use it, since they have it, they can always ask around and wont have to wait to find a crate and try it out)

2nd, it will slow down the guys who just hop in and say "OOOH big shiney machine gun!." at least a little.

3rd, you wont accidentally spawn in without it (seriously if it's happened to you before, you know how annoying it is)

4th, if someone didnt know a SL is supposed to have an officers kit instead of just a regular rifleman...well now they know.

Here's a case in point of a pretty bad encounter (the guy responded and spoke fluent english):

* = player

"Right nice work getting the aa up, * man it please"

2 minutes later: "Hey * I told you to man the aa"

Another minute later: "Jesus christ, fine (other player) man the aa"

10 minutes later, across the map and advancing into enemy territory:
"Hey * I want you to take point, get in the alley and move ahead"

15 seconds of staring later: "Hey * get in the alley please, I can't take point"

10 seconds later, temper is mounting: "* get in the alley, take point, MOVE"

10 seconds later: "God damn it, get in the alley or get out of the squad"

5 second pause and then he gingerly goes into there. I foillow up from behind in frustration and the alley is perfectly clear. My clan member on mumble says to me "they're fucking useless, eh?"

I set a rally and order the squad north, we get contact within 30 seconds. I bunker down into some cover and start shooting. A nade lands next to me and I run, but it goes off and I get friendly fire damage from it.

"God damn it, don't throw nades at me, they're not at my position"

I had the enemy position marked with an attack marker.

10 seconds later a nade lands next to me.

Needless to say:

* teamkills joethepro36

Kicks * from squad.

I raged so hard that after about another half hour of continuely lukewarm gameplay I quit.

It's happening all the time, squadmates who are generally crap and don't help each other out.
Twice in a row (start of a round wise) I had a guy "claim" on voip autorifleman even when I said no because I had already assigned it to a clanmate, (random player) takes the autorifle kit. I'm a kick friendly guy so it wasn't too bad but jesus, the cheek on some people!

The release is better than ever as always, don't get me wrong. But bloody hell, the players are worse.

the nade portion could have been due to the nades bouncing off stuff where it shouldn't. it happens allot it's been ehre since bf1942 where the nade should have gone past something decides to bounce back at you even though it clearly should have cleared it.

I like that SL idea.
