Dynas Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Unlimited cloak needs to go as well. Same with massive health and damage bonuses It has. So far they've gotten rid of: No more speed boost No more gravity reduction No more Spy Clock regen health No more Infinite Cloak Reduced Health on kill/assist (now 10) They've kept all the cosmetic changes You still have a bigger ammo clip at start Better RTD rolls Also they still haven't fixed reserved slots Or auto-balancing issues. Yes VIP's still get auto-balanced. Edit: How does the detect Dead Ringer kills work? Edited March 29, 2011 by Dynas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreksob Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) I'm quite curious as to how you say its ruined forever when its something thats easily fixable. but k. anyways if it is really that bad it will be taken care of, why come on here and rage saying we lost a player? do you think that its a bad thing losing a player that makes posts like that? i think not! Its not just the one player, me and my brother are probably going to stop playing on HG Hoodo as well, and, not to sound arrogant, but we are among the better players on the server (though we don't play enough to stay top 20 for more than a little while at a time) Edit: we are "Dreksob" and "Jareedos" (yes, he gave me permission to post for him) Edited March 29, 2011 by Dreksob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VIXEN Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Looks like everything as far as I can tell is either disabled, or removed (or so reduced u don't notice it) and all is once more right with the world of HG TF2 on the servers!!!!!!! !! WHOOOHOOOOO!!!! NO more hacks for the admins or VIP...heheh Thank you to Dirty and all those that listened and read the posts here and helped fix things back up Vixy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaySquad_ATARIS Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Ditto Vixen. I'm sure a lot of the regulars in the HooDoo server will be happy even if some of the "perks" were left on (which I dont' even notice). Thank you for changing this!!!!

digitalshot Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Also, can you remove or change that light blue color for the vip's skin on their character because it becomes confusing being able to tell the difference in team colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digitalshot Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Well neither did I till today. A red pyro with that light blue skin came up to our team and we thought we was one of us, then he just took us all out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry was just bringing it back on topic in my view! Constructive, when possible, is always better, but I think it is easy for people to become very emotional about things that actually matter to them and we should be glad that so many care about playing with HG and that any even took the time to register to post their thoughts at all (good or bad). I am personally glad to see so many come out to voice their feelings on this matter and do not see any reason their voices should not have been welcomed or heard, just like their presence would be welcomed in the servers. I am just very glad that those in charge of the servers listened. Thank you again! Edited March 29, 2011 by VIXEN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreksob Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Noone cares if you're going to quit playing. This thread is for constructive criticism on what needs improvement, not to complain like children. Thanks. My point is that even tho there a only a few of us that have come on to the forum to say something, we represent a fairly large number of people that might leave, and if we leave, and all that's left are the vip players, the server will "die". Because non-vip, regulars make up a good part of the good players on the server, and nobody wants to play teams of bots, or bad players. Of course, i may be completely wrong in my assumption that most of the good players don't pay for vip, but i can kill most of them once the round ends, so i think i am correct Finally, i wasnt trying to make some sort of "so there" statement, i like(ed?) playing on HG servers and don't want that experience to end, so i was trying to call attention to the fact that the new mods are(where?) wrecking the server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phate Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Listen up, Please. This WAS a constructive forum thread, but some people had to continue to complian about a non issue. All perks have been nulled or diluted, so now we are left with skins, chat colors, +10 health on kill or assist, and a minimal gravity and sppeed boost. only ammo has remained, and as long I there are no increased clip sizes, I am fine, because really, who wants a 6 rocket soldier. The only time clips give a big advantage is with pyro and heavy, who have no-reload ammo in their primaries. Overall, this forum thread is void and should be resolved to advice on changes, and us dropping on our knees thanking Dirty and other high ranked officials for solving this in such a timely manner.

Booster37 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Regardless of all the complaining, if you look at the stats, almost all of the TF2 Servers are still full Dustbowl did take a while to get there, but I could just assume that it was because of school/work. Anyway, I would have to say that the situation has been fixed. All VIPs have now from when the Premium perks came in are the positive rtds, and that isn't part of the premium and I think it doesn't affect the game enough to be an issue unless VIPs stack. Thank you for the changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredTacos Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Dreksob is correct on the server "population" thing, most of the time it's filled with bots, I've noticed it as well. Not a big fan but it works for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreksob Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 thank you for fixing the servers, i played recently with at least one vip player, and he didn't have any huge advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a big fan but it works for the most part. That only started hapening when the new VIP perks came on, before that you could get a good game for almost any time of the day, and it seems to be recovering nicely now that they are gone Edited March 30, 2011 by Dreksob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shizzle Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 i agree. but i think the extended period of dead ringer doesn't give you a 90 dmg reduction tho.. cause after the 6.5 seconds of dead ringing, the watch acts as if normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreksob Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 the biggest problem that i see is that any perks given to vip players have the potential to "break" the server. even something small like a slightly faster reload time can "break" the game if you get vip's stacked on one team, and that happens fairly often. So instead of gameplay perks add other perks, like team swapping and no death after the round, and no class limit, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
