Hey Schwantz you are definitely losing customers! Scify and I set up Hands Free voice chat on Yahoo tonight, then played on your server. I thought I'd give us a somewhat familiar map and voted for Phobos. WELL, we ran a deficit for most of the match, final score Bots: 60 Humans: 2.

At one point we even had a helper, but at the end of the match when I told him the bots were Godlike, he left. He had thought it was lag. :? He's not the only player over the last two weeks we've seen come in for a few minutes, and then leave because the bots are so tough. :(

It's your server Boss, but I say again that you are losing trade. :|

p.s. the live voice chat didn't help us stay alive, or help each other, although it did it did keep me from exhaling any blue air. :badgrin:

It's primary function is no longer a redeemer server but a secret French porno repository.

Post subject:  Ummmm?

I'm betting he's talking about the Non-Redeemer UT2K4 server running Team DeathMatch. I haven't played there anymore myself since the bots are too awesome. I'd suspect for me to have a chance beating them that they would have to be at one of the 3 lowest settings and in regular UT, I can win a DeathMatch game set up to Masterful. The settings are certainly not the same from game to game as far as bot skill goes. PLEASE turn them way down.

OK.. the bots were set at Adept.. They are now near the bottom at Average. Let me know if this works for you all.

Post subject:  Nope

I just tried it and even if I have the shield belt, they still kill me in less than two shots while I'm dodging. I must really suck bad but I kept on and in 10 straight skirmishes, I lost 10 - 0.

Post subject:  I was winning!

I played it and was on a map called DesertIsle which I have to say is the most beautiful outside map I think I ever saw. I was spanking the bots even though I was on the phone and drinking a beer at the same time. Maybe one level higher is in order but if you keep it at this level I will be very happy here too. Thanks! Now everyone needs to show up so we see each others DeathMatch Skills. If I recall, there are many good players amoung us. Thanks Schwantz for listening and taking care of business so fast!

Sorry I didn't specify which server. Yes I was talking about UT2k4. :oops:

Part of the problem with deathmatch in the new game is the radically changed weapons. Maybe they aren't a surprise to UT2003 owners, but I'm finding them very different. The mini gun has been turned down to the point where it's useless, I can crank away at a bot scoring dozens and dozens of hits, and the damn thing won't die. The flak cannon is less spammy, and as a result much better aim is required, which defeats the whole point of a spam weapon IMO. The bots are deadly with the rocket launcher, their aim is so damn good with it that I had one spin around and nail me right up close without killing itself yesterday. And the link gun is now a mighty weapon compared to the old pulse gun. If a bot draws a bead on you with alt-fire you will die if you don't run away. Staying put to fight it out is a death sentence. I think the barf gun is reduced too, and the assault gun sucks. Double assault guns aren't bad, but aren't as good as double pistols were.

I'm betting the first game patch adresses these issues and hopefully gets the old weapons back to more like they were in UT.

Post subject:  OK

OK but do you agree that his server is more playable? I think so big time and I still have a beer in my hand!

Lol Scify and I agreed that it went from way too hard to too easy! :lol: Bump them up one level at a time until we start bitching again boss, and then leave it at that. :wink:

Bots are back at "Average"

Post subject:  For me

For me, I played and finished with a score of 60 to 26. I had a nother player join in the middle of the game and he stayed the whole game. Personally, I like it here but if the others want to go up one more level, I think I'll survive that. In fact, I have the game so I'll set it up a two man to a team DeathMatch game and set it on level higher than average and I'll post the results here later. I'm still waiting to hear from Nameless and Scify.
