Spy Fly droning is a feature we installed. If you don't like it, then don't play on the server. Easy as that. It's not bug abusing as it's our server and it's not possible on other servers.

Thanks, I appreciate your opinion though, we also think it's a pity that there's a mesh bug, but we really enjoy using the spy drone.

Besides.. you can say crouchbugging that involves visible mesh bugging is as allowed, just have to aim for torso to hit head, isnt it. But in case of crouch bugging the bugger is at least near the fuckin target.

One EMP solves all these problems.

Understand, I think the drone thing is an awesome idea. Fukhead tried to surf the drone in cath on certain surface and it yielded hilarious results at times. The fact that you can shoot at me fairly easily if you can adjust the aim according to the drone's movement whilst I will either go nuts or die trying to hit you from certain angles and distance is not so awesome. In fact, the bugged mesh would make me consider it worse problem than the toggle-crouch jump bug BIA used, or toggle-crouch crouchbug.

If youd be unable to shoot from that drone, or at least suffer from some sort of handicap in doing so, I could live with the bugged mesh.

As for not playing in your server: I laugh at anyone saying this in deus ex. its not like we have abundant selection of options is it. Im lucky to find game anywhere and I have never had anything but good things to say about AG besides constructive criticism here or there.
/offtopic: I wish toggle crouch was disabled in dxmp in the first place. It doesnt make any sense anyway, why press a button twice if you can save time and hold it down.. not to mention that bia who abused the jump bug probably had a bind to make the toggle-crouch more efficient while keeping the bug.

Who's this person? He whines to much.

What's stopping you from using the Spydrone feature? Well, apart from the fact no-one seems to be able to work together like [A]! If you say "Lockpick this door please" with no-one you know on the team, its like a 5% chance they will do it. If Dae is on my team, he's already lockpicking it when I haven't finished the sentance. =D It's just intelleligence, which most of Deus Ex players seem to lack. It's not just [A] members who can use the spydrone, anyone can.

Its because majority of players we play with communicate with movements, and jumps for attention. Really.

There is a handicap of the spydrone :) When the spydrone rotates you rotate as well ;) So you either choose for manoeuvrability or being able to aim and shoot.

There are a few bugs with drones.
When I tried to use a drone while on a ladder, I couldn't move or shoot and there was no drone. Couldn't deactivate the aug or anything, I had to suicide.
Sometimes when using the drone, your character also begins moving. I have died a couple of times like this when my person has wandered off in front of sniper fire without me noticing.

That never happened to me.

Anywayz, the spydrone is a fun thing :-) , also very strategic for teamwork, but when i play on dxag, nobody wants to do it ( 5% chance ) and so i have to go alone to the enemy base, disable turrets and all other stuff...

Is there any way to prevent a player you are riding on a spydrone from falling down, how can that be done?

1) They move
2) You run into something with the spy drone

I sure do love Drone flying :P Hmm I cant see it being that hard cant you just set drones to bBlockPlayer=True or something? I think the spydrone also leaves some hope of escaping when Dae has all the turrets :P

The turret would just shoot you as you got close to it, as Kaiden found out a while ago ;)

You seem to miss my point, while Alex replies exactly to what I am talking about. Im random or undead of renegades.

The thing is though, people use aliases :) I almost never use "Alex", and I might stop using "Pavlov" somewhere in the future as well.
