Yep I was right.

Its because of my bloody post count.

The level of maturity in this thread…

DW was the absolute last torn banner product I’m purchasing.

Don’t lie. You’ve still put more hours of fun into MW and DW than you would have a game twice the amount you paid.
What’s happening here is simply sheer disappointment at all the potential wasted.

Like watching one of your really smart friends waste his life in booz and a dead end job. I feel that’s a pretty accurate analogy.

Agree with this. I think most people on here are upset at what could have been rather than what is…because frankly you gave peanuts to play this game for the amount of time invested.

I can confirm that it does save your stats.

There is still a delay in getting your experience present in some gamemodes for some reason. TD for example, updates instantly for me.

I think it’s already there? go to the profile section and you can see global stats.

Headshot with a hammer throw is the most satisfying thing ever. BLEUTCHFEFEE (Headplosion).

As for the poll’s question, my answer is no. This would just make the game less fluid. I personally like the mechanic of not having too many switchables at your arsenal (ie only Weapon 1, 2, fists). It feels fluid to me and realistic.

Having the old MW switch is redundant and as lemon said, makes it clunky.

Remember in Half Life 2 you had to switch to the grenade? Now every game is just press G/F to throw grenade because its fluid and more on the fly gaming.

Not to mention that the flag is almost completely useless in combat, when it should at least be somewhat viable.

No this should never happen. The point is to leave you vulnerable. You are supposed to be protected by your teammates whilst you defend yourself as much as you can. It’s not actually useless. You can push people away with it at range.

Making it a viable weapon would end up making it harder to have an enjoyable back-and-forth game.

because in a game full of killmongerers, with no voice chat, little pub communication, and zero competitive scene we should really base things around being protected by the team?

it’s absolutely pathetic as a weapon. you might as well be capable of killing with it. note i didn’t even say make it viable. i said SOMEWHAT viable.

otherwise, who cares? you might as well make it strong so you can have some fun when you pick it up. otherwise it makes no sense not to avoid it like the plague. you’re just gonna drop it if you have it anyways.

you actually have any personal investment in htb? lol.

Unlike you I don’t think this is a sinking ship and we should just bail. Of course i have an investment in Htb. Htb is enjoyable when it’s done right, and having silly things like the flag being a “somewhat” viable weapon which would cause this game mode to be obsolete and discouraging.

As for the game having no communication - there is the chat. I personally lead by example. Comrades see a high-ranking player, clearly in the leed by quite a mile. I speak in teamchat and some listen. After they realise what I am saying is effective, the rest follow suit. Positive behaviour works wonders in this game. Being a silent, and calling your team a noob for not doing the objective is not constructive and contributes to the negativity. A game doesn’t have to have strict clan setting to be competitive. Pub games that span several rounds become a fun experience with the right attitude - and yes - I find the right attitude aplenty because people are not jerks when the atmosphere is fun.

Many votekicks were caused by come hither.

It should be part of the follow me voice command. As it means come here.

It also means COME AT ME BRO

Most of the time now for some reason when I throw the viking shield and switch to dual weapons (swords only so far), If i pick up a shield again it is on my back but i cant switch to i when i go one-handed.

Has anyone else got this?

I don’t think bonus points for grabbing the banner is a good idea. For killing enemy bannerholder maybe but not for grabbing it, especially with the ability to drop it included.

Points for holding the banner makes so much sense that I am so surprised that it was not in-game since the hold the banner mode release.

I also feel that a small bonus should be awarded for kills with the banner. Mainly for the fact that the banner deals like no damage.

You can drop it?
