Deus Ex Alpha

Just thought I'd drop by to say hi since Konami directed me here..

Hey!, welcome to our forums.

Welcome to the forums.

Welcome !!

Is this the place where the augging DX'ers are gathering now..? o_O

I am the best augger DX ever saw, so I am enclined to come here.
I single handedly took down [3] using only the targeting aug and a set of 20 throwing knives.

Back then, I used the name [=UKH=]Papparoach.

lmao, joking

welcome messiah, good to see such a veteran here

That was the idea back in the day, hoped some people had gotten interested in playing again or just bring some memories from the "old good days"...and no, I'm not playing again, just thought I'd stop in to say hi. I did install the game yesterday to see are there any servers left and when I tried to join to this augged server, I was banned somehow ;o

Hello and welcome.

If you want Augs to grow again, you need to set up a server that can handle 20+ players. Noobs love populated servers because they will always be able to get a lucky kill. The only reason people play in the GODZ server, despite its obviously shitty maps, shitty adminning, shitty gameplay, shitty weapon placement, and shitty ping, is because it holds a maximum of 20 players...which means that the server empties more slowly...which means that when people look at the list of available servers, they say "Ooh, I see a server which doesn't have only one person in it; I'll go there because it's populated and I can blend in."

Then they discover that they can get easy kills because of all the noob weapons. They think getting 10 kills is awesome, but they don't realize they've been killed 30 times. Wow! 10 frags! 1 4/\/\ t3h r0xx0rz!!

DX, and other games, need a better scoring model. Frags alone don't say who "won" a map. The net frags and kill/death ratio are far better indicators of who has skill. If you kill 20 people and die 20 times, you've done absolutely nothing to help or hurt your team (from a purely scoring perspective... that player could have saved the life of a more skilled teammate, enabling that player to continue to be streaked, which is an indirect positive influence which wouldn't be reflected in the net score). However, a player who goes 20-10 is twice as productive as a different player with the same 2:1 kills:death ratio who went 10-5.

Sniper rifles are so powerfully-modded in godz these days that kiddies don't use scope.

says the expert

If you're going to insult me, at least get your BBCode right.

And btw, open your server list right now. Which server has the most players? Hmmm?

Prove me wrong.

ffs it wasn't an insult it was a joke but i though putting in it would make it stupit , next time ill do that m8 , sorry if you felt offended but i don't offend without a reason and without a reason , all things that look offending are jokes

btw i should actually be offended since i go to servers were many people go , i should be a noob than , ??

Ah, nm, all good then. I just thought you didn't realize I'm one of the oldschool dxers... calling me noob was... amusing. I just haven't played under the name "moop" in a few years.

And no, my point was that noobs will gravitate to those servers, whereas more experienced players know which servers have good settings, maps, admins, players, etc.

Gah the no aug games are still newbish but far more annoying than before...anyway, had a good augged game with some people, gg's.

you were a member of triad clan right messiah ??

and am actually happy when there are a few noobs in the server because than i have more chance in getting a score of 40 or 50 kils

Mess, imho ATDM died with Triad's auriapelikaista server. It was a brilliant server.

Hey, I find 0 augs fun >=(!

Well so do I sometimes, but I do prefer augs since there were no 0 augs when I started playing 5 years ago, back then you didin't simply have a choice until Volkrass started his 0 aug server.

Well I started this game liking 0 augs, since it was easier to make kills, but as I got better at this game, I felt I needed the challenge of augs. And now I enjoy both game types depending on my mood.
