This is a really fun server, I was on it a few hours ago. Luneth and Commander are unstoppable when paired together, they completely destroyed the Red team. Kudos to them.
It's sad to see people complaining about the same old gunk though. Despite BF3 pack being revamped in the hopefully near future (and having it announced right here, for goodness sake) people still complain about the 'level-up' system and its weapons. I.E. you get rewarded with points when you actually bother to get better at the game, and with those points you get to buy weapons that help you. I really couldn't believe my eyes at the argument everyone was having on the server today, wow.
I mean, this is a classic leveling up system that people are complaining about. It's simple, it works, and it's been this way since the dawn of minigames. It really doesn't take a lot of effort to learn how to shoot in front of a moving target in order to hit it, or to keep your gun pointed in the same direction whilst moving.
I could rant about this idiocy for hours because of how much it occurs and how it always leads to nowhere. I mean, what do you expect? For Glass to somehow make it "fair" with the flick of a magic wand and a sprinkle of gold dust? To pair the good players with good players and the fodder with fodder?
That would ruin the whole point of having a single, massive battlefield. It would essentially be Tournaments with a lot of dirt. A lot of dirt. Really, tons of dirt, which isn't the best idea if one half just wants to storm the beach and go Rambo: First Blood and the other half wants to be Bob the Builder. (2v2 or 4v4) And if you make a half-decent structure, boy oh boy, you might never see it again because you need to be put into a different map because of "fairness".
I could go on and on, but in short, the way things are right now is so much simpler and so much fairer than Dirty Tournament 2. Having two big armies containing both fodder and good players equalizes the playing field and is less risky than being put in a 2v2 match where one side will, nine times out of ten, be better or worse than you, as opposed to two armies, where the difference is not so striking.
It really makes me fume at how so much work goes unappreciated. Glass is paying for this server mostly out of his pocket, and people have the cheek to turn around and complain about the tiniest of imperfections, some of which aren't imperfections at all. It's just pointless moaning because they're so used to playing games on piss poor easy mode. People should just suck it up and soldier on.
