My peeve is the morons who jump from team to team in CTF because they are on a losing team(and they have the lowest score sometimes)...I have seen this happen even when the team they jump to has 3 more people on it than the one they left. Assholes.
Pray for your Redemption
EH
ps....
oh yeah,
I am also peeved at all the Q3 servers for running such a crappy game.
I agree with Psyborg, All that lag sucks, Love UT but one on one sucks if you both have a 56k connection. Bezerker your thread about PowerPlay was very interesting.. Can't wait to see it actually come about.
Whiners suck too and changing teams also but the worse is not playing as a team in CTF. Damn thats what CTF is all about, if you want to freelance go play DM.
Frag On...
So many great "peeves" mentioned!!!!
Great responses guyz.
I gotta admit, I totally agree with all your views. PotLuck, you made a very valid point about the redeemer! Guess you have to look at both sides of the coin when put in that situation (good one bud).
Also, I never knew why, in some games I could guide the "deemer" and some I would blow myself to bitz. Thanx for that bit of info.
We all admit spawn-campers are the lowest of the low in the slime pool of UT gaming. I think it will always be toted as the biggest "peeve".
I too agree with you Cyborg27. I hate when you play a team game and one of the guys on your team (either a good player or not so experienced player) on your team says that his team sucked. No wonder!!! With a teamwork mentality like that, you can tell he's a solo player on that team anyway.
Good job all, keep em' coming!!
This is great!!
Oh yeah, haha, just experienced another one a second ago. Playing a CTF or DM game, having a high score and then, the admin (who's on the loosing team) leaves and the game getz the boot. You don't even get your UT stats recorded on that one!!!!
The teleporter or spawn point with the impace hammer. Bastards. At least they don't get too many kills. I just go across to the other base and snipe 'em. That's the best bitch-move on Facing Worlds. Camp on their base in a dark corner and snipe them as they run to your base. They'll wonder where the shots are coming from, 'cuz they've most likely checked your whole base

The hammer kills on teleporters don't really peeve me off. Tho' I only think it's a valid move when used in a defense only situation.
In Facing Worlds, if you have the enemy flag, and the enemy has yourz, setting up infront of the teleporter with the hammer to protect yourself is a wise move.
It's not flawless tho'. The enemy can guide a redeemer at you (and if your not facing the right way, it can nail ya, because with the sound of the hammmer goin, you can't hear the "deemer". Also, enemies scalin the walls can get you. If you're in the hunt for a "hammer jackin flag protectin enemy" and can't guide a deemer or scale walls good, simply go thru the teleporter with the Redeemer in your hands, he'll zap you, you drop the deemer, he automatically recieves and because he has the hammer goin, the deemer will automatically fire when he recieves it. BOOOOOOOOM! (the last suggestion is only if you can't do the 1st 2.
So, hammerin the teleporters is ok by me.

Yeah Renegade, version 400 had the ALTfire Redeemer bug. 402 fixed it.
Anyway, someone calls a truce (more than once) to show ya something. I'll get "Wanna see something cool?". So a truce is called. You meet the guy and he's getting ready to show ya that "Cool" thing and someone else who's been playing already comes around and blows ya away.
If I see two guys in DM just standing around I think "Hmmmm.. this ain't right, wonder what's up".
