I HATE when/that:

-The Host forces you to play with a certain camera.

-The Host kicks you out because you are winning.

-You cant adjust the sensitivity.

-The dark maps become the green maps, because you are almost forced to play with night vision on the whole time.

-I get into a solo elimination game and all of a sudden its changed to Team Whatever and I have every low rank player on my team, against every high ranked player. Which is also why I never play team games because I have yet to get on a decent team.

-Respawn Invulnerability is on and I respawn, see some one, try to shoot, and cant as they just get away.

-Games with explosives turn into, "Hey this Grenade Launcher is the only thing Im going to use".

-I join a game half a second before the game starts and am forced to play before I even have a chance to see if I am playing against people with my skill level or if it has some stupid adjustment like all pistols. (I like games to be fair and fun)

-You cant check the score. You only know where youre at and where #1 is. Every time I am winning I am constantly wondering, "By how much?".


However despite all this, I must say I love this game. I just had to say some of whats on my mind.

I agree, these sucks

In dark maps, set your brightness higher.... the respawn invulnerability can avoid spawnkilling and the guy who spawns will have some time to discover where he is, i dont think these are that bad

Ive tried setting the brightness higher but it doesnt help that much on my TV. Im using a old (10 years) big screen, so that might be why. As far as the respawn thing, it can prevent spawn killing but it just annoys me more than that. I know where I am when I respawn, I picked the spot. I get more frustrated when I respawn and do the "I cant shoot but you can shoot me, dance" where I end up being killed while defenseless than when Im spawn killed. Hard to explain. But dont get me wrong, I can understand why you like it. It just dont.

I dont have a PC monitor, my only computer is a 12" Powerbook. I can connect VGA to it but I dont know if I want to play on 12 inches, haha.

The respawn invulnerability is more useful in team elimination, in solo elimination it's pretty annoying. But in the 5 sec invulnerability you cant shoot but you cant be killed either.
I get your point, if your opponent waits 3 secs and starts shooting, you're death anyway. But in team elimination it can be very anti-spawnkilling.
And what i meant by: discover where he is, was more like: do you see any enemy's or hiding places, not the place on the map.

You're quite right though :)

Yea I never play Team Elimination, but I remember once when I was forced to by the host when he changed the game right before starting the game. It was off and his team of friends proceeded to just spawn kill the entire game. It was so bad that each member of their team had about 40 kills. So I suppose it helps in that game type. Since it was off I was forced to respawn in a place I thought Id be semi safe in and then find them as fast as I could. Not very fun.
