Title: Server option anticamping
Post by: Tallacaps on July 01, 2006, 02:48:31 am
I don't care about camping but a server could have an option for anticamping.
The people that stays x seconds in same place get kicked/banned/killed by server.
This should not happen around the teammate that has captured enemy flag.

Camping can be a part of a strategy.

`Nuff said.

good idea, if you stay in 1 place, crouching/proning *with barrett* for x seconds u get hurt by server  and if you dont move it hurts you til death.

Ok. so if was I GUARDING MY FLAG I would get hurt?
If someone was giving sniper fire to cover teammates on Ctf_Run, they would get hurt?
BRILLIANCE!

YOU, SIR, ARE A GENIUS!

I'm not a camper but I think that it is a major part of the game.
I don't agree to this idea, by anymeans.

Worst, idea, ever... Camping is apart of the game. So bugger off. If you dont want campers, disable barret in Soldat.ini.

If you stay x seconds, the server auto-slap your player to move... =P

ops, sorry, bad english :(

Even if you did do it, it would be easy enough to avoid just by moving very slightly every moment or so.

Really, really bad idea.

Why only prone and crouch damage? Why only barret!? People camp with all kinds of weapons. I see a few idiots flag camping with a minigun. :(

I guess it wouldn't hurt as an option, but camping is part of the game and blah blah blah...

Don't forget AFK!!!

AFK players should leave the server to let others in.

This feature would need a fixed amount of seconds minimum, like 15 seconds at least before you get killed/warned what ever. I don't think you should be able to sit quiet for more than 1 minute, it's just not fair.

What if someone stops to reload a minigun then does a chat or something?  a lot of stuff could happen.

1.Who said only barret?
2. I don' care about camping but quite people don't like it. That's because a server option.
3. Protection around enemy's flag owner.
4. I know I write a poor english but... Have you really read my post?

I am totally against this being used to discourage campers. Like they said, camping is part of the game and if you aren't smart enough to kill someone when you know where they are then too bad for you (not you personally).

It would be a slightly better idea if the time were set at a few minutes and you only get dealt damage you don't move at all. Even though deaths wouldn't affect the individual very much, I think that just thet thought of dying if you go afk would discourgae it.

Even if this were implemented, the guy who starts the server would have to indicate the time before damage is dealt and how much movement and how often would be considered not camping for the map.

I don't think it would work. Sorry.

The only good thing about this topic is a possible /SLAP command.
It would be nice... admin types /SLAP <number> and the player looses something like 10 health points. :D

i really dont see how this could work. Standing still (or in a small area) with some weapons is a huge part of their stratagy.

No way! This is one of the worst ideas i've seen, sorry mate. Camping is a strategy, and also helps new people get into Soldat. *looks at the new girl Jessica* Ask her.

AFK's can't leave the server. Warning AFK does no good either. They're away, they won't see. Votekick is the best option.

the only time i camp is when i feel like im in a sniper mode.Laying down in a bush turn the scope on boom you know that feels good.

It's not right to scorn the way someone plays the game. Camping could be nerfed through weakening the offending weapons (in the event it ever became a game-dominating tactic), which would be a much smarter method than killing it completely.

i disagree to this suggestion, because camping is part of the game.

how ever i think that the suggestion could be flipped around to something else (better?) of more use.

an idle kick, if you do not move for X amount of seconds, and are not crouched or prone you get kicked
