Ciao!
My name is -R:M-Vala in the game, and bumblebee said this forum in our website. I'm from Hungary (any hungarian player in this clan?)
I'm happy to found this forum :)

Yea, we were discussing that a few days ago, and I was thinking it would be awesome to have a new material prefix; nor_ or something which will block the rail scanner from seeing through it. The rail scanner could be used tactically then while not being completely OP.

I've been trying to design some maps for optimal gameplay - since RF has had nearly a complete lack of them over the past 9 years. The only problem we're running into though is that the rail and PR break pretty much every map they're put in, so we've had to leave them out.

Basically, we've got it down to 8 placable weapons in maps (with the exception of the two spawn weapons); HMG, SMG, AR, Rocket, Sniper, Mines, Fusion, Shotgun. The other 5 are either worthless or far too overpowered. (PR, Shield, Nades, Rail, Flamethrower)

We've also come to realise that the invulnerability shouldn't be in maps, and that the amp and Super Armour shouldn't be in 1v1 maps. Super Health seems to be great, though.

I don't remember what names I used in UT3, I just played the odd match. I thought it had potential but they screwed up the movement. So I stopped (and there is only one player I find challenging in it :(. The game is dead), plus my PC is pretty bad to play it in native resolution. I use an LCD now, and non native res is butt ugly. I've used several names in UT2004, but I only really played private matches.

Imo, UT2004 had more tactics than any other FPS game I've played but at the same time, part of that was just decent map design.

Perhaps, quake3 has the same level of tactics required, I don't know. I just felt that in UT2004 because of the armour system you had to be smart to either take advantage of it or to, counter it (when enemy has an advantage).

RF's tactics are meh... It is very aim based but the problem is the rail. Due to the very nature of the fact that when you hold an assault rifle, you have to push your opponent (or they will simply run behind a wall and take shots at you). It wrecks what tactics you could use. There are of course players that have better tactics than others, but yes it's not on par with quake / ut / cs, etc. I have played CS 1.6 and CS:S. I didn't spend much time in them though. Too slow for my liking.

The idea behind RF essentially makes it a good game (excluding bad maps / glitches, bad netcode, bad hitboxes, bad weapon balance etc etc ETC) and I wonder about the tactics of it. There's two things that I wonder about... Not to sound offensive,

The community is quite low skill (compared to other games) and perhaps, if players were skilled you would constantly try out new smart things to beat them.

If the maps were better, perhaps this would help?

Hell ye i agree with the things above. I remember when i stopped playing RF, and went to another game, i was really very low skilled. Anyways, I wasnt a big player in RF at all.

The map design in RF could be important in some ways. Like you said if you play in an indoor map, you have less chance with with AR against a railer player.

Well i havnt played UT3 much either. But when i bought it and took a look at the server list, i was quiet worried about the number of the servers. That game is no more very active game.

guildwars

Soldier Of Fortune 2
Quake Live

UT3
Worms Armageddon.

And then some un heard of games like Chaser, Devastation etc.

These aren't bad games at all. I know Chaser but Devastation.
Well, to tell the truth, i never play call of duty 1 or UO. I (or we) only play call of duty 2, and call of duty 4.
Anyways, i didnt like call of duty 2 when i started playing it, there is a huge difference between these tactical games, and rf.
Are you using the nick Philip in UT3 too or?

People say there are lot of hungarian players. I met only one who played 2 years ago or so. So i dont know anyone else just you. Maybe we didnt met because of i dont play usually :D.

"Azt mondják csomó magyar játszik. Én cs egyel találkoztam és azzal is kb 2 éve :D. Szóval mást nem ismerek, és a nem találkozásunk oka az hogy ritkán játszok mostanában az rf-fel:D"

woops quoted for the wrong post, okey i recognised...
