[FPS] 24/7 Atacama Desert Server

Well, I contacted them today and am hoping they will allow me to admin on the server to, possibly, help cut base raping / spawn camping and team killing down to a minimum. Would be nice and help people stay on the server longer and have more fun.

TK (team killing) is off but many have noticed that, if someone from your team is on the AA gun, you can run your quad or another vehicle into it and it will kill them BUT it says they killed themselves so you don’t so they person(s) responsible do not even get penalized for it.  That is simply not cool !

Cross your fingers for me..  

Cheaters Always Follow

As with any game, if it is popular (and oddly enough, occasionally for unpopular games) people will cheat.  Back in the day, cheats were easily accessible and nearly everyone had some to one extent or another. Today, they are SOLD to people (usually for around $20 USD) via hacker websites and other cheat-based websites. (note FPScheats.com)

Today I was sniped by someone with an assault rifle who was not even on my side of the map with a shot that was not only insane, it was impossible as there was no way for him to even see a glimpse of me nor for him to be able to get 1 perfect headshot with his weapon from the distance we were apart. At maps end, he had just under 100 kills and 7 deaths which, regardless of skill, is also damn near impossible at this point on Bad Company 2.

I hate cheats and pity them at the same time. Does it really make them feel like they have skills when they have to PAY for cheats ?  Sure, I am sure we would all enjoy it for a day or 2 but, after that, at least to me, it seems like it would be VERY boring and I would most likely stop playing the game anyways. In the end, what is the point ?

Every Battlefield game (and probably every other game with rankings) has a history of having the top 10 – 20 players be the ones who cheat the most..  BC2 is no different in this regard and I doubt there is much that will be done or that CAN be done. For every cheater that gets banned, a few more pop up. For every update to anti-cheat technology (i.e. punkbuster to name just one), they update their cheats and so it continues.

In the end, all we can do is hope the server admins are watching and kicking accordingly or leave the server.

Morning Comes

An early morning but I crashes out early (for me anyways) last night so now I am free to start my day early and get a jump on the red hot nothing I will, most likely, do today.

Wife and I might hit the breakfast buffet at Big Boy this morning..  I have been talking about it for quite some time and she mentioned it this morning so I got my fingers crossed.

Still checking in on the BC2 community and nothing seems to be getting any better. On the contrary, it seems like, after every downtime, more people are now complaining of issues. Simply pathetic. One of these days I will take the time to post a list of most of the bugs and broken things in the game.  Not sure I have that kind of time though. haha

Something new

Just another fun filled morning here are the AlmightyAK’s house.  Watching the assenine ranting of morons on the Bad Company 2 US forum..  sometimes it should be ok to kill people
