And what else do you need to be told?
Assassinating the Deva was hardly possible but a horde of green lizards did their job ;) But the province itself is pretty poor, IMO. I mean the sites, obviously. While, of course, they would be very useful for the Sanguinarium team |

Sorry man, I think hosting games, creating sites, creating rand programs, volunteering hardware and time, and being with the company since the beginning entitles you to voice an opinion. I don't understand your animus. There has been a lot of mindless drivel - see the joke threads, the sombre threads, septs advertising threads (no offense). To which I haven't noted significant objection, so I don't think you're consistent in your standards. I have no desire to debate Gandalf, but I think its better to debate ideas not people. I'll leave the last word to you. |

But... who jumped us just to mp? Ive been told that cbm is something everyone should used including solo players and brand new people. Both of those I disagree with. If you do also then we at least have one agreement. Quote:
If I knew more about the subject I could charge more for my answers. What do I charge now? Oh this was offered for free. Im no longer paid here. Sorry. In fact, Im retired. I can do anything I want and not worry about that. My hourly rate on various small internet jobs is based totally on whether or not the subject is interesting. Which also tends to explain the type of mods and things I do. I know that you are filling in. Im sure you will get better at it. |

Chris:
Graeme's point was you should be familiar with how MP is played, especially by the more competitive players, in order for your opinion on MP games to be taken seriously. You should also have experience with the mod in question. I haven't seen Gandalf sign up to use any CBM 1.6 games, maybe he has, I don't know, but his general apparent hostility to the mod doesn't seem well reasoned, and he doesn't seem to understand the MP metagame at all. (His association of CBM with 'dueling' is mindboggling, since I've only seen one duel game ever organized on this or any other forum - not that I can say I follow all the forums Dom3 gets games organized on, but dueling seems really rare).

If you intend to play MP (especially on this or the new more-sombre forums), you should just start with CBM and never look back, because 80+% of games use CBM. Might as well familiarize yourself with the version of the game you'll actually be using most of the time, even in SP. If nothing else, eliminating gem gens means that I will actively avoid playing in non-CBM 1.6+ games from now on, because gem gens leads to degenerate gameplay that I don't find appealing. (Note I'm only subbing in this game as a favor to Chris). Lots of other players feel the same way. So just because a minority of games still happen using vanilla doesn't mean you'd ever have to actually play in one. And since most of the best MPers seem to only play CBM, if you want to play against the strongest players the game has to offer you're going to want to spend your time practicing CBM. |
Re: Noobs and Vets II: Days of Infamy. MA, BI. In Progress.
This topic seems to come up a lot in this thread. Maybe someone should make a CBM vs vanilla thread on the main forum for debating the subject?

So the feeling is that only those who can win games using cbm are qualified opinions on why cbm is good? And all of the best MPers play cbm only? And their opinions on what "always happens" in non-cbm games are the generally accepted facts? |
