Hi guys,
first of all, thanks for running some lovely servers, they're awesome. :thankyou2: However, after spending some time at them I've noticed that there are this automatic warning/kick system for baserape, but there isn't anything preventing a majority of a team to sit around in uncap and sniping out. On Arica harbor this results in, mainly, the US team having half their team play as snipers sitting up on the hill sniping down at the others. This in turn results in two things,
1. The US team loses the game due to a huuuuge amount of snipers.
2. When the RU team gets pissed off by some 14-year old with his GOL love of his life and shoot him they get warned and or kicked since the sniper was hugging his uncap.
So, my suggestion would be to either limiting the number of snipers on the server OR implementing an Anti-Basecamp script as well forcing people to actually engage in some combat. I think this would help to get some intense urban fighting which whould be even more awesome. :good1: In the past I've switched to the losing team just to get some fighting going, but it's damn near impossible since the snipers love to occupy their uncap and shoot out and show no interest what so ever in taking flags or teamplay, so I've more or less stopped switching teams since it's an obstacle too many in the way to "balance" things out. :axe:
Just my 2 cents, keep up the good work. :)
