Boy Howdy

Post by Killer Klownz » Tue Mar 03, 2009 10:26 pm

Whats with the player on CG calling Klownz nasty names?? Not a player friendly environment at all . . . . If Klownz had any feelings they would have been hurt . . .

I was cussing alot too, but just in general.
I'm tired of losing.
Not just losing but repeatedly failing in a most heinous and miserable way.
What is it Klowns? Do you have special funny clown armor? Do the big shoes make you faster? Just when I think I have you, you flit away like some happy little pixie.

But I did see that noob, named after a bot (?).
He barely came into the game and started whining away.
Don't worry, he would not have the testicular fortitude to hang around and try to improve his game.

Named after a bot...would it be Raynor?
He's a Fan Club member and someone that needs to be exterminated.

Don't ever give up and quit trying to win . . . Remember it's the thrill of the kill . . . Winning, if thats what you want, will come with that . . .

It was not cussing, just racist and derogatory . . . the usual . . .

I'm learning the mod makes for baby-steps in improvement. You don't get better in an afternoon. I thought I was doing OK for myself then Melissa came in and totally mopped the floor with me. (S)he had awesome deemer defense, I couldn't hardly get to her. I can see I need to make a large, flat, open map and practice defending incoming deemers.

It takes practice...practice...practice and then when you think you got it...you need more practice.
And with practice comes patient.
Or you could just learn spawn points so you could bots and uncontested players.
But then you'd be a one-dimensional sprayer with no skills?

Yeah you quickly tire of the bots. The can't defend at all and don't react to the incoming missles. Is that a lapse in the AI?

BOTs treat redeemer as they would any other weapon - that is a problem. :lol:
They shoot it at 5 feet from you! :roll:

The deemer also is a larger bullet than a regular bullet. The bots can react to you shooting a pistol near the corner of a box they may be standing behind but they don't understand that a deemer missile is thicker and can't get past the corner of the box and so it detonates killing the bots. Funny! That is why you always see bots with negative scores if you set them up to godlike with this mod. They see you so fast and react to fast that they don't give enough room between themselves and boxes or walls for the full girth of a deemer missile to get by without hitting anything. Boom! Bye-bye bot.

I was looking at the AI decision making that the bots use. Those problems are addressable if you guys are interested. Bot behavior could be modified in the decision making string to greatly lessen some of these problems, but it still won't afford them a "tactical" mind. They just react to stuff. A good chunk of that too is mapmakers. If a map is pathed poorly the bot IQ drops tremendously. I'd guess that with the pickups removed from the maps by the deemer mods, there are a lot of path blanks that make it hard for the bots too. I know on several maps I see them not patrol much at all.

Did you "see" it or did you see the announcement that "Fuzz_Ball was telefragged by Bot"?
This HAS happened to me when I throw my transloc directly into a wayward blast.
BOOM! TELEFRAG!
It's a Wrong Place, Wrong Time thing.
Kind of like my entire Redeemer experience of late.

Tell me, Pork Chop, has this NEVER happened to you?

I figured that's what happened but I was hoping for the worst...lol
And yes, it's happened to me a bunch.
But I have seen a bot telefrag another bot...creepy.
