  • The


    Assault Event will be held every saturday a 8pm GMT at the colleseum (pass by the


    arena)


    From now on, this are the only rules to be apply to the Assault Event after


    they had been disccused with the event managers:


    1st.- 2 Teams, 1 for each planet


    andeach have to dock at their home planets before the event starts.


    2nd.- Every team


    will have 1 BattleShip and the rest would be fighters. They would set the team layout by


    dividing them in 3 groups:
    a.- Scouts
    b.- Defenders
    c.- Attackers


    3rd.-


    We will have several rounds during a time period of 90 min. The objective of each round is


    to destroy the enemy Battleship. When 1 Battleship is destroy, each team return to their


    started position and the next round will begin.


    3rd.- Players from each team can not


    dock at the enemy planet.


    4th.- Each BS kill will be count as 1 point for the killer


    team


    5th.- PPCs are allowed to use just at Battleship range. Otherwise the player


    will be called it out.


    6th.- No nanobots neither shield batteries are


    allowed


    7th.- BattleShips can stay out to a maximun range of 6k from their home


    planet.


    8th.- No cruise speed for Battleship are allowed but they can change position


    at normal speed.


    9th.- It is not allowed for players to leave the sytem for


    reload.


    10th.- The event managers will fly the Battleship for each


    team.


    11th.- The respawn will be unlimited.


    These rules were made after a


    careful consideration by the event managers and nulify any other rules posted before these


    ones. For now on, the assault Event will be held under, and only under, these rules until


    further notices. These rules will be repeated 15 min before the events begins. If a player


    gets late to the event, if his responsability to read the rules at the forum under server


    news.


    Sincerely,


    The Assault Event Managers

  • Dear Players,


    First of All, I want


    to apologize to everyone who showed today at 8pm GMT, 29/10/2005. We have like 18 players


    just in the Assault Event at the Colleseum. at 9:10 pm GMT my broadband conection was lost.


    I call my broadband provider and they told me they were sorry but the main server could not


    assign any IP to the people on the area I live. They were working to solve the problem but


    it would take several hours. As for now, I still without internet at home so I have to


    connect from my office which I have another broadband company. I understand if everyone is


    $%&/% at me casue it seems that for some reason (maybe some one cursed an spell on me, even


    though i dont believe in magick) all doors are closing to my face to get this event


    going.


    Im not a negative person because from all adversity I always think I got


    something good. From last event, we got last set of rules which for the 1st round on todays


    event were working pretty good. There is only 1 rule that, if you still accept me, I will


    work on changing it ( Ill talk about that on another post) Todays events was going to be


    great, just 1 exception. Maybe in the heat of the Battlet you didnt notice, but you were


    shopting down an admin and major event manager. I told you not to shoot him who callsign was


    Event_team1 . Next time listen to the event manager or you will be call it


    out.


    Another point was PPCs, I dont know is my team didnt observe the rules on that


    (I will ask Petrus later) but 1 from Segema team were sitting out of BS range destroying my


    BS hull and nothing i could do cause my defender were busy shooting other enemies. On the


    other hand, I have to congratulate CZ_Falcon and CZ_Honda cause they observe the rules.


    Eventhough I could shot them down with my BS, CZ_Falcon came through again and shot the


    Tyrius BS :)


    On my team, I want to apologize to you again, DC and Pia are great clans


    and you fight well brothers. Also Serv did a good joob. There were other people without clan


    tag who did well but in the heat of the battle I could not pick right their names.


    On


    the opposite team, congratulations, great attackers and cool defenders :) Petrus team always


    give his best. I apologize to you too guys. About todays battle, as soon I contact anyone I


    would be given the prize to the right winner (so Far was Segema team before I lost my adsl


    connection)


    The Assault Event needs many thing to be improved and worked on.


    Especially on situation like the one happen today on me. We need to improve a lots of thing


    like the starting time of the event. It was 9:10pm and just 1 round. ABout the round rules,


    I could see beyond and share OP idea but we have to work on that in order not to become a


    respawn killer exploit. But I still see great things.


    So guys I hope you forgive me


    and sort things out so the next event would be better :)


    With


    Appreciation,


    Freedom_RGHawk


    PS: I hope I get my adsl working tomorrow so I


    could share some input/ideas with you.

  • the event just doesnt work


    from what i have seen there was


    pure chaos after "1st round" ppl standing around loosing the interest... starting to spam...


    sitting at the opponents base... not knowing what to do


    interuptions of fights are


    always crap coz it takes ages until ppl are rdy again to fight... its like starting all over


    again


    also the rules are way too complicated... there is no space for


    tactics



    but nvm - forget it.... i already said this 3 times ago but ppl dont


    listen to me

    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

  • On the contrary m8, the event was pretty good on the first round. Besides what you


    think OP, the idea of making the event without rounds was being considered. There was just 1


    point that needs additional consideration and is the respawn killing of the battleship.


    That is why I send you the rules and ask you to give any input on each of them. SInce this


    is a big event, we do need two event managers but there is always problems out of control


    such what happen to me yesterday when my adsl was gone for more than 24 hours. Thanks God I


    got another adsl provider (just 2 in my country) at the office so I could apologize to the


    players. So far to much criticism but none much good self explanatory input. About the


    rules, they are always some complicated rules, eventhough I like to keep it simple


    (difficult in some rules) but generally, they were simple enough except for some such


    as:


    1.- Yes, round could be a problem but I need input how to avoid respawn killer


    (especially when those BS are buggy that you get stock at docking rongs - even the reliant,


    I get half of the hull down when the ring catch me and I get free from them. Some cases, no


    so lucky that i have to be kill to restart again - so that is why we have rounds for now)


    Therefore, if some issues could not be solved, I guess round would be the only way for


    now.


    2. PPC, on my first event, even when defenders were fighting, the BS could not


    do anything at all but flying away to avoid been destroy by the attackers. Why is that?


    Fighter have PPCs which by keeping enough distance and dodging enemy defender, they do real


    damage. So we have that rule, that really i dont like to call out people out of BS range in


    the fight.


    The other rules are simple, such infinity respawn for each round, no


    reload, no nano neither shield batteries, BS max distance, no docking in enemy planet, BS


    flying by event manager, team alignment, every BS kill = 1 point, No cruise speed from BS.


    As you could see, they are simple enough cause half of them applying to BS behavior which


    are flying by Event managers ( Keep it simple) But, yes, 2 rules there kind of difficult to


    control. So, what do we have to do? Positive input cause some just say do this and do that


    but no one has says you could do this in this way and avoid doing that


    because...


    Plus, so far, I do listen to everyone suggestion. We even has a meeting


    about that and then rules were posted plus email it before this 3rd event.


    Another


    thing, on the 2nd event we got more people that the 1st one. On the 3rd event we got even


    more. That mean that the event has appealing plus sor far I have been Honorable enough to my


    fellow players to recognize my mistakes plus compesate them out of my game pocket because I


    wont give up so easily.


    So understand this, either anyone give some positive input to


    do things better or dont. We must be doing something good cause Cf event are being holding


    by different events on other servers. Yes, I check not only how we are doing here but how we


    are doing in other servers cause I care about this mod and I put effort, game credits and


    time to make it happen. I also want to thanks people who has help CF, especially the EVENT


    MANAGERS by running other categories, because they has not only beem in their events but


    their brother events no matter what, They are always there. So thanks to you guys for being


    there.


    Finally, no matter what you think OP, but I also want to thank you for the CF


    mod. I have played and being invited to several other mod in FL community but this has been


    the best so far.


    Anyway, my email is there or you could pm, Im always open and


    available to suggestions and please explain why and how.


    Thank you in advance to


    everyone,


    RG

  • Normally I won't throw in


    my two cents worth, but why not..


    I had a blast (no pun) at the event.


    The two


    issues I saw;


    1. Petrus' BS kept getting caught in the DR.....5 minute delay.


    twice.


    Solution. OP approves a docking ring mod just for that event?


    2.


    Difficult to identify friend or foe since there is no color id showing opposite team


    members.


    Solution to that problem is each team is entirely on one channel...and talk


    when you have too.

  • ive explained the reasons for thing that


    rounds are bullshit and that rules are too complicated 3 times now (2 times on the server


    and one time here on this forum)
    but no there was no change


    im not going to


    discuss about this any longer... it seems to be a waste of time

  • @ op i have a question


    how can you be so negative on what we are doing here


    ?


    i mean we have, and are trying to help get the server back up and running again.


    we have gotten the events going again all i see is that you are being negative and im sure


    there are a few ppl that will agree with me on this.

  • Gunny


    Thanks for your input. The event was


    running in the old time by using the roid miner. I came with the BattleShip idea because for


    some reason we could not get the roid miner working. There is nothing we could do on the


    Battleship problem except for your proporsal of the docking mod where only the BS player


    would be allow to use it. However, the admin have to give us permission for doing


    that.


    About the player color, you use the channel group to identify your team players


    cause your team players would be in pink color. However channel groups can not get more than


    8 people. What I did on the last event was that my team defenders was on my channel group


    cause they were the one who were going to be close to my BS. Attackers and scout were on


    other channel group and 1 person was designated to give the info to my group on priv.


    channel. I dont know if we could increase the amount of people on group channel in the


    code.


    @OP


    You stated your reasons why rounds are not ok and I understand and


    share your opinion. But I ask you how could we avoid two things from a no round event:


    Respawn killers at docking ring and the BS problem at undocking from the docking ring which


    is the main reason that respawn killing happen at the first place when we dont have rounds.


    As you could see, Im listening, but I havent got any answer to solve that problem. I do


    appreciated your input and thanks you for that. But, If you could give a solution to that


    would be helpful and I will be more thankful. What other rules besides rounds and PPcs


    rules are complicated??? I havent got an answer to that one either and If these are th only


    ones, I need solutions from the problem we confront when we dont use


    them.


    DC_Dragonwarrior


    I dont get discourage by negativity m8. I take that


    as a test and obstacles that I have to overcome to get a good event going. I also want to


    take the change to thank you for your support.


    @ to the people who login in the


    forum


    I see you there, many people login and check the CF forum but just few of you


    really participate in it. I have seen people who were really active before that they dont


    even bother to write a few lines anymore. Remenber, a forum is the pillar of any game


    community and without our participation on it would make our community to fall and losing


    inerest on the game itself. I understand people dont like to take the time to read long post


    so I would be short on next ones. However I need your help, no just here, but in other


    thread that needs your attention and participation :)


    Sincerely,


    RG


    PS:


    People, any input/idea is good enough for me to help me to get a good event going. Need some


    solution to the problem at stake.

  • i can be so negative to that coz of


    experience... ive been leading the assault events before... every saturday and ive been


    leading them in a way where we had 1 complete hour of pure tactical fights with 3-5 killed


    miners


    i can be so negative coz ppl tend to think im dont know what im talking about


    or such a shit... im also so negative coz ppl decide to go their way without asking me about


    solutions or just ignore solutions i offered to them


    its the same shit why this


    community went crap... and a few events wont help... maybe they are a beginning but if you


    guys are not willing to listen... and develop things then everything here is


    useless


    i can be so negative coz besides a few guys most ppl dont even think to do


    their part for the community
    i mean well yes i got some mails of ppl who offered to


    help... but if those few are all then its not worth it... i decided not to reply those


    mails

    Note for all: If people or individuals decide to


    address a situation/problem in a negative or positive manner, then use the information to


    make improvements, not continue the banter on a subject.


    You get absolutely nowhere


    by continuing an arguement.

  • @ op i understand how u feel about it i feel the same about PiA


    at the moment and i would imagine its worse for you after all the years of effort and time u


    must have put into crossfire and the community only to have deal with betrayals and trouble


    makers. but this negativity is doing nearly as much harm op if only a few ppl offer help is


    it fair to shun them? if not many ppl want to help turning them away or ignoring them is


    just goin to drive them away as well, CF is going through a tough phase as is PiA but i sure


    as hell not goin to give up i have give up on things very rarely and im sure ur the same op


    to give in is a faliure and i do not forgive myself when i fail


    if u don not like


    the structure of the proposed evemts why dont you help the event managers instead of just


    sittin back and sayin thats crap, thats shit, thats not goin to work, nobody here questions


    your experiance or abilty op but just handing out criticisiam is not goin to put things


    right u need to activly take some aspects of this into hand and ppl im sure will follow suit


    noone is gonna help when all they get is criticisim

  • Hello fellow


    players :)


    Well, thanks to OP, we got the event ships (the roid miner) on line. I


    really appreciate your help OP. Now we can change some rules. The miner is smaller and it


    doesnt get trapped by the docking ring. PLus, the miner weapon range is good enough to


    confront those mean fighters with ppcs :)


    Therefore, now that we have the roid miner,


    some rules are goin to be reviewed and posted few days before our next event.


    Dont


    miss it, I think we got the right package this time ;)


    See you in space and keep


    checking cause this thread will be updated soon.

    have them now and with enough time to do some modification on the rule set.


    Thanks
