I have still no clue why you just dont stop allies engineer from building gate? There is endless amount of possibilities. You can position mg42 safely opposite side of street to camp that place. You can place panzer there, engineers with rifle nades, throw other nades etc. You can also just walk in few meters and throw airstrike can, use smoke etc. It is very open area for rebuilding and if allies manage to rebuild the gate then it usually happens because other axis players dont put pressure on that area. If you just kill one engi there, then the same covie who satcheled the door can take uniform and open the door which gives one more way in to the flag. It is just pub play and people do .. weird stuff. It is like driving the druck indoors in supply and then complain how hard the main gate is to plant. Cant fix that mindset with added buildable stuff or different spawntimes.

I would say decrease axis spawntime to 8-10 rather than increase allies to 20. Allies last spawn is pretty spammable on the way to the objective so if you die before obj is taken then the run from obj room to boat can be shorter than respawn, which isnt too good.

I would same its equal with supply depot where you can either capture flag or blow up door and in caen you either capture flag or repair tank. I think the biggest evener was done with disabling mortars in caen. Axis do have decent chance to get flag because they can also opt to steal uniform and open one extra door. If you consider the fact that you need to be pretty open to build gate back and it can be spammed with panzer, rnade and mg42 for example then its not too easy for axis to build it back. I think also the possibility to blow gate up with satchel after 1 succesful dyna is balancing also that area well. Caen is one of those maps like supply where the success of the first stage for attackers depends greatly on the fact if everyone in team is doing their own thing or they are actually somewhat teamplaying.

Any timestamps on what moment his actions seems suspicious?

high five!

I've seen Rax play before. He's finnish or estonian - not sure. What makes you think he uses VPN? I think he is even in our discord

wireless?

+ grenades, dynamite, landmines, airstrike/artillery, rifle grenades and satchel

yea. Getting out from the tunnel spawn for allies is from 2 ladders (maybe 3) and 1 ramp that is pretty narrow. Not hard for axis to keep them away. Also the mansion is too small for 20+ people.

Its not the biggest map for 20vs20 tbh. Especially the last part.

Temple lacks of forest. Sounds more like Haunted Mansion .. without Mansion .

But I wanna go to toilet midgame I dont want wires to hold me back but I wanna keep hearing whats going on . Okay, jokes aside, when I was getting my first wireless arctis - the nonexisting latency was the deciding factor. Every other gaming headset that I had before wore out from some cable connection point or cables were on the way.

Doesnt the steelseries program not help with that? Maybe some setting somewhere is low for some reason 😕 .

Yea sure, why not. The higher the number, the better the quality and extras are. But even entry level 1 and 3 work very well for regular user.

Steelseries arctis series is good. If your budget is limited, get arctis 1 wireless. Should be ~100$ on regular day but there are a lot of sales going on everywhere. If you need extra stuff like removable batteries etc then just look higher grade than arctis 1. Im using them over 3 years now and no real sign of wear, sound good and very comfy to wear. Have suggested plenty of friends them and many are using them already. I think even @Dmxj gave them a go and I think hes satisfied with them. All other I've used before are either much more expensive for similar experience or cheaper in quality and worse to use (have too much latency, have materials that make ears sweaty after 2-3h of use, have bad mic etc). Overall I think I have ~25 pairs of different headphones and when I used some for gaming (better surround sound etc) and some for music (clarity, noise level, eq) then now Steelseries have been in main use for all tasks.

Last time it was suggested, it met with downside of modifying gamefiles and thats not what we want to do. If we really want to do it, its not hard to achieve.

Well yea, its the question of where does the arty reach. Depending on the angle how you throw it and where you throw it. You can easily throw it on the other side of the opening of that wall and it doesnt reach too far at all. I would agree if the arty and heavy weapons dont reach the boxes then its all fine. Maybe it was just remembering the oasis rule of "no heavy weapon past broken wall" incorrectly. but seeing that post is done 10h ago then kick has already passed - just the discussion and clarifications are usually needed in cases like this.

I don't think this discussion belongs in hidden areas. It will be not decided here but surely will be declared with some explanation what is and is not correct.

no because there are multiple ways away from spawn before that wall even.

@Matu correct me if im wrong but there is no rule about broken wall. It is actually more important where the heavy weapon hits. So was the kick correct?

you can always use "sv_novoicechats 1" or use binds for example /bind m toggle cg_novoicechats if voicechats already bother you. But I remind that currently we are discussing theory of adding something that could be turned on/off so theories usually dont have already practical commands programmed in.

Ty for the post. It will be taken look into.

Multiquote incoming I like the thinking behind this. Why not allow something that does not give any competitive advantage but a fun experience or trip back to memory land for some? I think if its doable, it should be done and be turned off by default and whoever likes, can turn it back on. It carries the same logic with allowing turn on/off blood, beatiful sky, smoke etc but unlike the previous - its a preference that has no competitive advantage. Its a war game. There will be fragging if we like it or not. There will be fraggers if we like it or not. Awards like "highest fragger" for example promotes much more fragging, but we are fine giving that award out every round? And show the killspree record of the map? You missed the most important part of the idea - the sounds can be turned on/off and that choice can be personal to everyone. We have enabled custom sounds and images before. Even winter/christmas time. I dont see how this is different? If we wanna keep it fully pure, then lets also disallow custom configs and scripts for players as they are complete opposites of pure and simple. +1 . Thats how it should be on most cases where the option gives no advantage. Even if we personally dont like it, we should not prevent others having and enjoying it.

Surely not. First start demo, then take info of player (there can be others, not just this one cheaty guy), then inform in discord that he is online and then use commands if the guy is really blatantly guilty. If he just plays well then let it play and upload demo if you want others to check it also check it. No need to start using force immediatelly when someone with australian flag is playing. New guy is smart, nice! Welcome .
