CoD4 - Etiquette

[Xenon]

Errr ... how is that a perk? Am I missing something here? Maybe related to ranking?

As i remember,that is related to ranking:S

1st time on the public server 5 mins ago I was confused as hell why every time I killed the other guy on there (level 38!!) I got killed as well. I assume that was the Martyr perk, and yes it's very frustrating, nigh unacceptable in terms of promoting fair gameplay. :g:

[Penfold]

I agree and use of the perk is really frowned upon on our servers. More often than not it wipes our your teamies rather than the opposition.

A pubby got me with the Marty last night.

It's the 1st time I've encountered it, so I thought that I'd killed him with a live nade in his hand, but then I realised (from being killed loads of times with a nade in me hand) that they don't go off.

someone put a warning up just afterwards so it didn't go unnoticed:)

[Jewelz^]

is there no mod out there that can automatically turn it off as soon as they join?

[Sparko]

i have often wondered why things cant be restricted on cod4 servers.  Does anyone know why this is? its just i have played medal of honor (all of them) call of duty (all of them) and cod4 seems to be the only one that doesnt have restrictions on servers.  why cant we disallow the perks that are unfair?

Its like used to like playing on rifle only severs on cod2, or pistol only, there must be a way of having restrictions on servers?

blabbering now lol

as soon as you start to add restrictions or custom maps the server becomes unranked:angry:
 
so we are a little stuck

So why do you need two ranked servers? Why not only one and do a custom server?

We could but we would all lose our rankings and have to start new rankings on the custom server; that's not a prob just something to be wary of.

Public server needs to stay ranked to attract guests. Other than that we can do what we please ... even do away with last stand :devil:


But not claymores eh? :flirty:

[Doorman]

Unranked means what exactly? I've been on a few custom map servers and they have some jolly good maps. One had a predetermined weapon choice so no agonising over which gun to have.

I'm there most evenings, and it's taken until now for me to encounter it.

I really don't think it's a problem:)

I thought you could keep a copy of your profile and just copy it back when that happens.

And by not having custom maps you don't attract the ones that want to play custom maps. Double edged sword that. :g:

Yep, good point.
