Dogfight servers - What are they in you're eyes?

[Jorgur]

I tried that once, long ago. It was a mess. Most people didn't understand the game, so the few who did went around scoring easy points. Not much challenge in that.

i remember jougur dogfight since v8... good times

What about something like Getting a neutral flag in the middle and having to bring it into your enemies base? So people have to have defense and offense.

Dogfight is about to change quite a bit.

I have already fixed the distance issue. Red base is one mountain closer to Blue, so you will arrive at the battle much sooner. Team killing has been disabled for good.

I tried adding a goal; the high scores board. But because there are so many cheap ways to gain points, people just abused all possibilities and grinded their way up the list.
I want Dogfight to be a place of freedom, as some people say, not a chase for stats or achievements.

I know infiltrating the bases has been way too easy since the beginning. Measures have been taking to avoid this. With the advent of JVS doors and team allow events, you now have to use your wits (or explosives) to gain entrance to the enemy bases. But no matter what the builds are like, many will often experience a lack of challenge because of the difference in skill among the players.

Please post more of your comments. They are always helpful for improving the server. :)

1. Get some good builders to help you on the bases, It will be more interesting than boxes.

2. Remove that godawful "City" where people can build there, it seems to have no point and whenever I take a convoy through there handicaps will keep chasing us with shrink-rays and severely forgets everything up for us.

3. More moderation. Countless of times I see idiots spamming the chat and prevents teams from trying to plan things clearly.


That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Actually, I solved that problem By DISABLING HORSE RAY AND SHRINK RAY

Jorgur's is the best, nothing compares to Jorgur's.

I have never visited Jorgur's server before....I would like to.....but I don't seem to see much good servers around so.....what time does his server go up??

[Whatisthis]

I think they are only good if they are made by Jorgur or Blobeh. Dogfights are addicting as hell and as fun as hell.

Jorgur's Dogfight V13 will be opening this weekend.

Jorgur's dogfight has been the consistent multiplayer deathmatch server that I play on. I love vehicles, and flying, I just wish it was a bit easier to get kills in a plane. I would really like to see some type of homing missile that locks on to vehicles, but has a 5 second recharge time.

Anyone play the Battlefield games?

I play a lot of Bad Company and 1943, and they are just so much fun.

Jorgur, you should think of doing something where you capture points, or like in Bad Company's Gold Rush game mode, which would be really, really cool, but probably would need a custom map.

Hmm... Actually I want to make something like that, and I would if Badspot fixed the mac version of BL.

Thanks for turning off team killing btw :0

The problem is that airborne combat in Blockland is basically impossible in any lag at all, or if you aren't piloting the vehicle.

I've successfully had two stunt planes filled with people holding RLs and miniguns have combat.  However all the players were competent players, and the pilots weren't bad at flying.  It's hard to accomplish, but it is insanely fun.

Usually pretty boring.
If you happen to get a plane, it's either respawned or shot down before you get a chance to really take to the air, and then you can't get another one.

Unless, of course, it's set up well.

As far as weapons go, minigun or bust.  It's hard to shoot planes down without something nice and rapid-fire, unless your plane has guns like Strat's spitfire.

Jorgur's is usually boring but it's been really fun at times.

OSR works well while in a plane, if you know how to scope and fly it lol

A lot of idiots right click while in a plane using the OSR. ;D

Personally all I need is a Deagle, a stuntplane, and a medic and I'm good to go.
