Re: Time to welcome back the FS CGs!

Sorry Safe, I just need to say something about... clan stacking!

Clan stacking! Knew there was something I'd forgotten! Those goddamned insolent BlackIntel...

Oh. ...sorry.

Good games this past Saturday and Sunday, see you all next week!

Oh yes big_smile !

I quite liked the 'clan stacking'(whether intentional or not) towards the end on Mos Espa. Well, it was cool when BI were defending anyway, not as enjoyable when we were defending smile. It was a real challenge to gain the Slave Quarters CP but when we finally did it felt like a nice little accomplishment. I wouldn't mind it becoming a regular thing for the end of each CG night tbh.

That would be an acceptable compromise in my eyes, kinda like the devs&testers versus public matches we had in the early community games smile . Allocate some time each night for a "BI vs. everyone else" challenge where you do your utmost to win and we do our utmost to beat you. If there aren't that many of you that night, maybe we could spawn a vehicle or jet pack for you or something.

Re: Time to welcome back the FS CGs!

While Clan Stacking can be nice, Exessive Clan stacking is a pain, repetitive, and descouraging. Less people will join the community if they hear there is an amazing, clan stacking clan that always win, know what I mean?

Anyways, CG's coming back is awesome, lookin forward to it!

Re: Time to welcome back the FS CGs!

Sorry I missed Saturday.  I did catch some of Sunday, which was fun until I had to leave abruptly.  (Sorry team. Did we win?)

From the looks of things next week's CG should be a blast! big_smile


I liked the new server Gwynzer, not too much lag for me on most maps despite my distance over here in the U.S.

Umm... was Battlerecorder on?



And some side questions for anyone who knows....

I've seen free webcast sites around for a while now... Is it within the realm of possibility to have a live stream of the CG?
If yes, how about to have it (or a link to it) displayed on FS's web site? 

+ 100 points if you can figure a way to get game sounds and xfire chat on there
+ 1,000 if you could get a commentator on there

+ 1,000,000 points if you got 2 obviously biased commentators - 1 Imp & 1 Reb.


It's a crazy idea, I know. tongue

Re: Time to welcome back the FS CGs!

I'm happy to be a BIased commentator.  XFire has a broadcast feature, I'm willing to get that going, I just need to set up so it listens to ingame sounds as opposed to my mic.  If people are willing, we could chuck spectator mode on for someone to fly around with a camera.


Battlerecorder wasn't on :<.  It takes a while for us to set it up, I'll try work on that today.

I used to play a lot of Counter-Strike. So I am used to all kinds of whining and cursing and blaming w/e if someone loses.

You have to learn how to appreciate it.

Go to Options on Xfire, then select Broadcast. There should be audio setup, and simpily checkmark the "Broadcast Audio button" You can also Choose quality of the broadcast, though the higher it is, the more bandwith (2MB for highest to be exact tongue ).

Anything else requiring X-fire, talk to me. wink Though I have a question myself.

After DLing a Battlerecord, When I try to watch it, it Crashes to D(esk)T(op).
Can you explain why it does this, or tell me how to fix it?


Edit: At minus F(orce)P(oints) for my opinion for Clan Stacking: I should have the right (anyone who believes otherwise, say so) To express my opinion without being criticized. Sure, asking stupid questions are worthy of not using the force, and that not everyone has to agree with my opinions, but to technically say "That/you is/are stupid" without saying it to my face is cowardly and Demoralizing. My life is sad enough.

I find it amusing how my Edit is almost longer then my first post.

^^Sounds work, just the wrong ones. And before you say anything, I've tried all available input/output devices.





As for BR, dunno.  You shouldn't be able to download it from any BI server, we could never get it working.  If you're manually downloading them, or they are old, CTDs could be due to the fact the files are from previous versions of FS/2142.
