Idea to stop tking for jets

Re: Idea to stop tking for jets

Something I'd like to see in regards to those that decide to jump in front of planes that are rolling is that they would "bounce" off of the jet causing them to suicide with the message: "PlayerX is no more." This would stop the majority of smacktards that try this lame tactic.

Re: Idea to stop tking for jets

If ranked server hosts weren't such Nazies about running Python scripts, it could be made a moot point very easily. OnPlayerDeath, for TK, check if he was in a plane, check to see if the TKer was holding an M95. If all return true, boot the tard.

Done.

This is the best idea and it doesn't require dependency on a EA or Dice to get their head out of the rear. If someone shot's you before the vehicle spawns, well, there is nothing you can do about that with any of these suggestions. They can't take away TK's all together because that would change the game play all together. I have been guilty of ton's of TK's that were 100% accidental. I learn from them and in some cases, eliminated them all together. Server hosts should police their servers and not make EA or Dice do it because they tend to screw other things up when they do!

Yes, they can tk you before you get in, and some will still blow up the jet with C4 and AT rockets.

But still, this can do nothing but help, and would be SOOO easy to implement.

I guarantee if this was implemented, the tking would go down alot.

Re: Idea to stop tking for jets

an idea have the game made so when people join a server the game randomly selects people to be pilots so who ever has been seleted will have some sort of symbol to show they are pilots onley they will be able to fly so if ure not selected u know you cant fly so you will get on with trying to win the game and not standing around hopeing to jump in a jet
some kind of system is needed for the jets because there is noobs tking for them and people standing in front of them i like to fly but i rather get into a battle and kill instead of waiting on a jet were as 5 to 6 people are there already fighting over them

Wargimp, does EA/Dice check for python scripts or does PunkBuster? I wouldn't think that something like that would be considered "malicious."

Re: Idea to stop tking for jets

it takes ONE tk for a vehicle in our server
(with certainty- ie not an accident racing to get in
eg c4 or getting shot)
and that guy kets kicked from our server
if he does it again
we bann
this falls within the guideline if EA
(disruptive play)

what about the people who stand infront of them

The problem seems to be that you can do some perty nasty stuff through Python and EA doesn't want to check through every script to make sure you aren't up to something evil so they just say "no".

Understandable, but a pain in the arse since there's so much you could do through scripting to help admin servers.

That just can't be prevented....but that has nothing to do with what im saying.

Thats great. Honestly, if all servers were that way I wouldn't bother posting this.

But alot aren't even admined so I don't see why dice wouldn't implement this.

Re: Idea to stop tking for jets

Dont forget about the jerks who jump infront of your plane and force you to TK them, we need to mess them up too!

Re: Idea to stop tking for jets

If someone tks you out of jet, unlock a M95 and become a tker yourself. Don't rely on EA/Dice to solve your problem.

This is my personal favorite right here.


Someone posted about using the M95 to blow people out of the seat instead of tking or blowing up the airplane. I thought WHAT A GREAT IDEA.

So my policy is everybody gets one chance, if they tk me or suicide/punish me first........then I spawn with an M95.

No more jousting for the airplane getting tked at the last minute. I just let the moron get in the airplane and BOOB. Head shot.

I was gonna get the tk/punish anyway so whats the difference. I still get the airplane.....I get to shoot the noob who suicide/punished me before and I get to smile about it.

I don't randomly shoot people for the airplane only if someone else tks or suicide/punishs me first.....then its M95 time.

I'm just sick of the BS and this works for me.


BTW if you have 2 kills and 15 deaths and we are loosing.......and you keep coming back to get in the airplane. My m95 has a tendency to accidentally go off then too.

Ya gimp. There are some really good .py scripts out there. Wish EA would /approve a couple for use on ranked servers. Some examples...http://bf2.fun-o-matic.org/index.php/Scripts
There are quite a few I would use on our server
