Most probably this has been discussed thoroughly so someone just give me a link to that thread. If not please read on.

I want to stress the matter of killing someone as soon as he respawns. Almost 90% of the players in e+ do this. As soon as they frag they ran to the closest spawn point and start throwing grenades or firing missiles at the spawn point. This way you get fragged even before you get a chance to get in the arena. I know i may sound too much but try to think about q3tourney1. It's such a small map that you can control 3-4 spawn points from the same place. Something must be done in my opinion. If nothing can be done i'll just keep on playing but if something can be done i think you should act as soon as possible because it's unfair to me.

Thanx =]

haha nice post m8, i think
1- u should improve and kill the enemy
2- when u did this,u can lead the match, and u can kill ur enemy at the respawn points
3- of course everybody do it,cuz it means ur enemy knows the map and know everything about the map, so do the 1st Happy
4- if u dont want fight with good players,call a vote for newmap (bigger) or just go spec, and w8

but first u should practice ffa,not 1on1, i think

ja aztan fejlodj sokat am,hehe

IMO if there were no respawn killing it would be unfair for the one who did the kill.

Cause when you respawn, you can kill him. And if he hasnt covered his back with a grenade, he will get a rail in his back. And IMO punishing somebody who just made a frag is bad bad bad.

Thats why you should wait with the respawn. Not too long, not too short. Just long enough to take him by surprise. Happy

so theoretically the one who makes the first frag can win the whole match with the other player not even moving cos he'll blast the spawn points Tongue

Thats ok, skilled players do this thing. But Q3 engine sucks too, when respawn the player at point, where 2 or more enemy around, even if there is spawn point where nobody. It is unfair. Another bad thing, when engine respawn you. You start to move forward. Then engine immediatelly respawn the enemy in your back. It is unfair. Maybe anyone exchange the rnd() funtion in the source with a better, fair algorythm. Thinking Happy

thats already available and can be altered in server cfg. you will respawn with protection and no ability to fire for some time.
luckaly most servers dont have this option turned on anymore, cause it realy sucks.
i can live with the engine as how it is now. just dont get fragged Winking

Well good players move through the map shooting at spawn spots, this to me is fine, since they shot at doorways corners and spawns, but what was mentioned as the topic...seems to me the phrase "CAMPER"

Anyone who sits there shooting at one spot (spawn's, hiding in odd spaces) is a camper.

How I handle campers is show no mercy ...I hunt them down and frag them until they squeal like a pig and then I still show no mercy.

Cracker does to camper's

plus it's fun ...because they can't play and it's an easy target

When I see someone is laming around I try to frag his ass hard. Even I dont care about frag count or any other shit! Only that asshole.. I can feel desire to kill him in my bones.

Thats a pretty cool action esp on DM!7. When I have that lamer is my mind the game seems to be played only between us, the world has only us two. I kill him each time as he spawns maybe 7-8 times in a run and then he either says 'your aimbotting mofo!` or disconnects..

lol, tottaly not true, i played with hq some game, and he won all the time, but i think hq in almost all map knows all respawn points,and still i have chance, i played many time with hq a 12-11 match, and that was great. cuz i was noob in bro.

u said 2 or more enemy,its ffa,its different like 1on1. like in dm1 i think u have only 25-30% chance to kill the enemy in respawn points, and its not too high. of course more practice-->> more skill -->> u will know where,when he respawn, but ppl make lot of mistake Happy so just practice a lot.
