Base Laming

Knightmare1 · #1 08-24-2008, 02:59 AM

Base Laming has changed alot. in my 2 year time span on graal, i have seen laming change vastly. at first, there was really no base laming (execpt the 3 or 4 people inside the bases with rifles just shooting at the door), it was mostly just a fight for base 1. then the inside base laming became very popular when we discovered the true use for Mortars, and only about 5 or 6 noobs run in there like idiots, and eventually lame us and get bounty

.
every now and then 1 guy with a mortar would lame outside, but when someone gets past the fire and lames him, he just retreats inside the base for a while.

But now. its a spawn fest. cant even get to the bikes before being blown to smitherines by the guy with a mortar or lamed by that pesky photon. bringing us back to the conclusion, v5 brought out the worst of Zone. but this is not pointed at Stefan or unixmad.

I have an idea to stop base laming of this sort, make it so you can spawn inside your base too, and add an alternate exit inside and outside of the base.
the worst part of this new generation of base laming is the inability to get away from that annoying foe with a mortar, and if you do, say hello to photon!

If its Storm Riders laming Sweep Fleet, thats different. its not that hard to get to the bikes when your on sweep fleet. they are right there.

I changed it so it was a better idea.

Base laming is Zone now. I go on it on and off, and only play if anyone is on Deathmatch. Ircia is completely ruined... Why can't someone fix it

First step is to delete this whole Arctic update and go back to the original.

I haven't talked with Stefan about this recently, but I talked with him about changing it back to the orginial a month and a half ago and he seemed to like the new Iricia.

They do. Sadly, it's mostly ****y nubs.

They're just like IXI! Can't spell or use grammar worth ****. While acting all tough.

The original Iricia is the one shown in the M minimap.

The new Iricia has some elements the current one does not:
Larger cliffs surrounding each base
Turrets
Not secret secret passages
Extended base one
Weird doodle crap in the upper left hand corner of the map
Weird doodle crap in the upper right hand corner of the map
A weird somewhat bunny shaped formation of snowbanks below the Sweep fleet home base
Screwed up bikes. (Not sure if this is the new one) There are three bikes right below the Sweep fleet home base instead of two below and one above.
Larger bases on top but the inside level does not match.

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