friedrice 8 #1 Posted June 16, 2009 So I noticed that crits are turned off on the Stock 2 server, which is all fine and dandy. The problem is that it makes melee weapons useless for the most part. It's not like the melee weapons were terribly useful considering you had to be next to the enemy, and then you still had to hope for a lucky crit. Any chance of turning off crits for all weapons but melee? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KillerKeg 10 #2 Posted June 16, 2009 I was just playing it and got plenty of bottle and kukri kills. You just don't get lucky shots. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miyari 33 #3 Posted June 16, 2009 Don't tard up my non-crit server with your "oh god I have to get lucky" bullshit. If you can't get melee kills without relying on lucky kills, stick to your primary. And Keg's right, both of us got quite a few melee kills with no issue (at least 5-8 for me and like 10+ for him). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan_0214 18 #4 Posted June 16, 2009 I concur. Any random crits are bad. Now, if we could implement crits on round end... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Planet 28 #5 Posted June 17, 2009 I concur. Any random crits are bad. Now, if we could implement crits on round end... And FLAMES EVERYWHERE LAWL. My computer cries and then I cry because I can't see jack in all that, lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rivanor 1 #6 Posted June 17, 2009 I agree, random crits are completely lame. However, the competition is better on stock 1, so there is no perfect solution. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrillhouse 1 #7 Posted June 17, 2009 I'm a 24/7 Dustbowl regular and have been for 4+ months now. Unfortunately, I'm getting tired of the map and of the random bullshit kills that demomen get while mindlessly lobbing pipes and stickies around corners. Worse than that, several of the less-than-talented demomen get inflated opinions of themselves because they do well in stage 3 when I chain feed them kritzkreigs. (Not talking about anyone in particular, or at least anyone I'm willing to name.) Anyway, not trying to hijack this thread. I've recently been playing more and more on Stocks 2. I enjoy the non-random crits as well as the variety of maps. I just wish more people there talked and generally hung out. Most of the time on Stocks 2 I'm stuck talking to myself and wondering who to uber or why the medic pulled off of me to heal a scout. Stocks 2 FTW!

Mana 3,867 #8 Posted June 17, 2009 Stock #2 has no random damage and no crits. That's how its always been. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Lorax 25 #9 Posted June 17, 2009 Yeah, you should leave the server the way it is. Shame it doesn't attract a better crop of players. Medics on that server tend to be awful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thrillhouse 1 #12 Posted June 18, 2009 Ok why the hell when Stocks 2 should be one of the most competitive servers (no crits/randoms) is it one full of the most mouthbreathers? I ubered three different people tonight. The first heavy stood there unspun, the second heavy shot at the scouts instead of the kritz'ed demoman, and the first pyro ignored sentry guns completely. Other than that, the uber experiences were average, but still lacking. WHERE THE FUCK IS THE TALENT?????????????? Edit: Oh yeah, 3 out of the ~30 some odd people I played with tonight actually used their microphones. Fuck my life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FunkyFresh 68 #13 Posted June 18, 2009 If you don't see the people posting here or THEIR friends in your server, you aren't having a good time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OhmsTen 0 #14 Posted June 19, 2009 Crits on just melee weapons? Uh, no thanks, I think most of us like the fact that the server is completely crit-free. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan_0214 18 #15 Posted June 19, 2009 It's not completely crits-free, just random crits are gone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OhmsTen 0 #16 Posted June 19, 2009 It's not completely crits-free, just random crits are gone. Yeah, that's what I meant. Should have worded my statement better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
