Re: New ROE

3.2.1 Players may not use or exploit game mechanisms to artificially boost their score ("stats padding") and Server administrators may not knowingly allow or encourage this activity on their servers.

This would include but not limited to:

(a) Using tag teams to take turns to kill and revive each other in turn (using knives, pistols, etc.)

(b) Playing on Knife and/or Pistol only Servers

(c) Playing on Knife only Servers

(d) Playing on “High Points” Servers

I guess they need to further "define" what they mean by high point servers...

How can you prohibit something you don't define? What is a high points server? If it is 16 max players on a 64 map with no time limit, then this should be prevented by the game, not put in the ROE.

Re: New ROE

Just play the farking game honestly and you won't have to worry about the ROE. People ***** and critique this Video Game Document like it's having an impact on their real life. You all need to get laid.

Re: New ROE

I would just like clarity on what defines a high points server, because Ive played on these before (while also not scoring nearly as high as I do on most other servers). The only thing I notice on HP servers is that they usually are 16-24 players, and large maps, but all the gameplay is the same as every other server. Sorry, but I wouldnt really call that "High Points," though I guess the potential is there. I just thought people putting High Points in their server title was just to attract more players to that particular server.

So once again, can someone please define how having small amount of players (16 is the minimum amount within the new ROE, so its acceptable) and large maps as being "High Points?"

Re: New ROE

In reference to rule:

2.3 “In-House” Ranked Server Rules

Public Ranked Servers and Private rented clan servers may introduce custom rules that apply only to their servers and which result in minor changes to gameplay. These “in-house” rules are allowed as long as they do not violate the conditions of use of a ranked server as determined by DICE and EA and as long as they are explicitly announced in the server description or on the loading screen, so that players joining the server are aware of them before they start playing.

As the Server Message Screen is limited to only 270 characters, Indian Scout has confirmed that it IS deemed sufficient to make the following (or similar announcement) in the Load Screen:

“Sever Rules are Posted in Game and in Website (www.clan_name.com)”

And duh – Server Rules that get posted, must still be in compliance with the Balance of the ROE
Ie, simply posting your own custom rule, that violates the ROE, does not make it acceptable, just because you Posted it :P

Re: New ROE

I agree with that statement, as long as it doesnt violate any of the other ROE rules...

nice work..

Because the map is so big and the flags so numerous it turns into a game of "chase". You go quickly from flag to flag getting 4 points a pop and rarely run into your opponent. You opponent is busily following you around doing the same thing. I call them "chase" servers. You can get a bunch of Team points that way. I expect examining a players stats and comparing kill points to team points would reveal if the user frequents chase servers or not.

It can actually be fun if you happen across your opponent more frequently. Otherwise it gets boring.
