spawn-protection is not great. 70% of the kills are spawns there. it makes it more up-beat and exciting . just tell whoever is complaining that MOB allows spawnkilling, but does NOT allow complaining . if they don't get the hint , let one of us know .

I know you all want to kill cassino. I know I have absolutely no influence either.
Still, cassino is the gateway to other mob servers. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for cassino, niether would lipton, wolf, shake, and so forth. I know some people have a ludacris dislike towards cassino regs, and I'm not sure why, foolish if you think about it.
Keep the damn thing up, as soon as I get back to work I'll be glad to throw down some bills to help.
If certain people don't like it, sorry, but so many people enjoy playing there. Please don't make UO all base assualt.

Well as we know, cassino lately has alot of people that have a habbit of picking disturbing words.
Further Cassino is alot of frag trowing, thompson spraying and spawnkill camping. There is no tactics whatsoever. Its very instense and head-on.
My opinion towards the cassino people is that they look for some easy highspeed action, and mainly that arent my type of people.

Respect and accept other people at how they are. Live relaxed as the world is already hactic enough... Maturity doesn't come with age but comes with understanding valueble lessons.

[Lord Lipton]

how does that help at all feezy? its just a different gameplay then squatting an ass into a tank. it takes a lot better hand-eye coordnation, and if you don't mind me saying...more skill . its a lot harder to go 50-10 in cassino then it is in barb...

[Magnificent 7]

Cassino teaches people how to shoot. Personally I learned how to use a kar and pistol on Cassino maps. Now I can charge a tommy with my rifle and normally come out with the win.

Killing Cassino would be a shame its a really fun map. I think the big problem are the mouths. Cassino works well to bring players to the other mob servers as well. I would have never started playing on the Barb server if I hadn't played Cassino for a while.

Personally I feel like the easiest solution to the problem I was talking about was to get a few more Sheriff's on the street and make an example of some people. If the regulars to the server weren't participating in the constant slander of fellow players the newbies to the server would pickup on that.

Or you could just turn chat off (joke).

Exactly my point. Us cassino people die a lot in BAS, if you haven't noticed.We like to run and gun, and a lot of people enjoy it. Is it skill? Hell yes. I will boast and say the cassino Regs are capable of taking multiple enemies on at once and walking out in one piece.
The intensity of the game causes frustration, thus the bad language. Give the cassino regulars kicking power, that is, of course if you can trust them (contempt and sarcasm intended here).

There are a lot of good spawn protect mods out there where the admin has complete control of the time, if it turns off when you shoot, etc. I think it wouldn't hurt to have 2 seconds after you spawn. Since the server is set to auto-spawn, you can't wait a minute for your spawn to change. So when a sniper or twelve get your spawn zoned in, you don't even spawn really. Die, die, die. All and all, it doesn't bother me too much cause it's just a game. Well, it does bother me when the snipers start trashtalking. PWNED and junk. Snipe raping is like beating up a 5 month old baby with a crow bar. No skill, no challenge... just a nice way to pump up those stats.

Overall, I would suggest 2 seconds of spawn time, or smoke nades back, or manual respawn. my two cents

[Maj. H8Red]

The problem with smoke nades, from what I hear is they cause way too much server lag. I don't know cuz I don't play that map. I might jump in on occasion now & again though.

Hey Pez,

I get what your saying but what about satchels thrown in spawn or arty. You cant avoid that. Just like in the movie Saving Private Ryan, when those ships opened up it was open season. War is war, there is no protection other than a helmet. I can see the arguement of having smoke, but not a spawn guard for 2 seconds. Then you might as well take out all the rifles in there because you will need a MG.

[pezking]

I get the whole beach landing analogy, but that's life and this is a game where people respawn to play. I'm all for demolishing a spawn and making the team respawn somewhere else. I just don't get the whole premeditated spawn rapage that happens at times. People will camp the top floor of the hotel and just knock people off as they spawn in the opposite corner ruins. There's not too much skill to that although the stats say so. I think it's part of the game in a way, but so is corner camping which I think is extremely lame.

Not going against you personally Nothing if you do spawn rape a lot, just my opinion. I think the people doing that have every right to take out a few here and there, but to continually do it while racking up the score... it takes some of the fun out of the game. I've been on the server quite a few times when almost entire teams have logged off the server because of it. Personally, I'd prefer the server was packed all the time... so it's give and take.

[Dr.Satan(QC)]

Maybe we could try the spawn protection? If there's to much complaint about it take it out.

As for the smoke i think the bigest problem was dumbass smokin sniper in their own team but smoke is very usefull to cover your guys from a sniper or a mg34 sprawing around!

Well!

[pezking]

I owns you all in Cassino.

[CommanderChoth]

haha, is that my name buried back there

[pezking]

Yes it is sir....

and ofcourse that is all a joke. I'm sure everyone listed in the image is above me in stats.
