Title: Bunch of Effing Cry Babies
Post by: Furious on March 18, 2002, 11:32:08 AM
I thought this was a game were manly men and manly women fought each other in a virtual sky.

I was wrong.  It’s just a bunch of whiners and crybabies.

HT puts out a very nice update that many had been salivating over, with many new and fantastic features…

Then the freaking whining and squeaking and crying begins.

Just 2 points:

1. HOBBIES COST MONEY!!  If your system is unable to handle the modest requirements of AH, then you need to  upgrade your damn system.  If you are unwilling to provide yourself with a platform that runs AH well that is your own fault.

We all want more and better everything; eye candy, fidelity, models, graphics, etc., but that stuff comes at a cost.   Pay it or keep quiet.  These "Me and everyone I have ever known are leaving because our uotdated systems can't run AH." posts are just sad.

By the way, HT always gets us FPS back after an initial release so get your panties out of a bunch.  

2. If someone knocks out your Dar and half your team leaves, don’t squeak and whine at who took down your HQ, squeak at your teammates who abandoned you in a time of adversity.


Not to mention all the crying about AHV.  I understand that tards exist.  Tards are not HT’s fault.  A squelch function would be nice, but terribly unfortunate.  This tool could change everything about AH and our not so friendly skies.

(disgruntled)


edit:

Just to clarify:

I like the AHV and it is unfortunate that some will act like tards on it.  

I would prefer a way to squelch the above tards rather than have most just disconnect or disable it.  

While playing over the weekend I never had any problems with idiots over the range channel. (the squad channel, on the other hand, was chock full of idiots :D )

The level of cooperation has fantastic.

actually, didnt HT say that the .squelch command not only works with text but with the voice program as well?  I'm not sure but I think I heard that.

I guess I don't understand why both sides are doing this to each other.  I guess everyone loves a bully pulpit  :)

First we have the guys complaining about some things that they really shouldn't complain about.  Yet on the other hand, some of the problems they mention are indeed problems.  (lockups, crashes, etc)

Yet, the other side speaks up and HOW DARE YOU COMPLAIN mantra.  

Its a BBS, and as long as there as users are allowed to post their opinions, popular or otherwise, that's just the way it is.

I've found 1.09 to be the best release yet, but that's just me.  I, too, find that while AH Voice is handy, there should be a way to shut it off.  Other than that, I love the game.

I'm just a little weary of the *taste and tone* of both sides postings, both those that are upset, and those who start threads like these.

Its not what you say, but how you say it

Hey folks, I just got the word... 1.10 is coming in 2 weeks! Uhh,,, hold on .........lmfao.......okay, I'm back now. Honestly, I have had more lag and disco problems since this new release than I have had for a looooong time! Maybe it's just me, and maybe it's the fact that HTC forgot to get their servers up to speed before they released this mess. Think about it... minor server problems before the release = BIG server problems now! I used to NEVER have any lag or anomolous crap in CT, now it's just a fact of life. HT, hey, we needed this update, it kicks ass, but PLEASE get your servers up to speed! Of course this could just be my isp, but I never had this problem before...

Wildblue, I cannot speak to the MA server as I do not know a thing about its configuration, but the CT server, which is here, is not even breathing hard.

Well.. guess you told us tough guy.  

Get this straight.  I didn't ask for any of these "features" and am simply trying to figure out how to disable em.   I didn't want tokyo rose bleating at me and I didn't want blinking lights added to what was allready a jukebox of a map.   I certainly don't want to hear high pitched effeminate voices on AH voice (must all be fluffers, strat potatos or luftwhiners or...you.)...  I don't want to take the time to squelch anyone... I just don't want to hear em.

Having said that... My squad used voice and liked it.  we tuned to squad channel and it was ok but... we still kept getting interupted by said effeminate Aholes.   Makes AH Voice worthless to me.

As for strat... do anything you want so long as it doesn't effect me or make it harder to find a GOOD fite.
