Dom

old thread, sounds like a really fun event if possible. would like to hear some thoughts on this idea.

@Disparity atrix will you please leave me alone now

there is already a rule against delaying. making a rule that prevents CTs from being in the same spot for x amount of seconds makes no sense since every situation is different. you could be camping one way and still be enforcing despite not moving much. If the guy hasnt moved in 31 seconds but has killed 3 rebelling Ts im not going to slay him for not moving. as zzl mentioned above, you can either make a player complaint or call an admin to deal with the player if they continuously camp an area without enforcing the orders.

As trazz and scrolls mentioned, it would be easier to click the thread and find the dates there. we make sure most if not all events have “When” and “Where” in big bold letters so you can quickly find that info and dont have to read the additional information paragraph that comes along with event posts. As for the calendar, we are trying to use that more often since not many people know about it. From what i heard at the community meeting, there wont be any major changes made to the forums because the new forums are coming soon so hopefully the calendar there is more noticeable so that everyone can stay up to date with events. We also have a steam group that notifies you of events which zzl kindly linked above.

congrats everyone

you can click “random name” to get a random name account given to you or you can put your own username and password in to create an account. no email bs required afaik

staff, especially BDs are usually busy dealing with higher up stuff but they also have personal lives to deal with so there obviously a priority list of stuff that needs to get done. Give it a few days, she’ll respond when she can and you’ll have your vip.

This is a wonderful list Kieran [sG], I have to agree that cirrus and cirrocumulus are my favourite clouds. if you like stratus clouds leave the SG forums and never come back.

Thanks to everyone who participated. Huge shoutout to @Infinityward and the other admins for helping make the event run smoothly. Congrats to @hindu for winning the tournament! Shoutout @20 scrolls for choking and becoming a 2nd place loser

I think he means the balkan skin preview in the store is a picture of the admin pirate skin https://imgur.com/gallery/5bqgwPR

Everyone always complains about certain cosmetics interfering with gameplay, specifically the minecraft head on JB and TTT. I think it makes sense to allow players to be able to turn off some of the remaining cosmetics like hats and masks in the store settings the same way aura’s and particle trails etc. can be turned off.

im here to mock you for using powerpoint transitions and playing outside in the rain

If you don't know how this works here's a quick rundown. Admins will be on CT to help run the event. Participants will be on T side and switched over as well as teleported to the knife arena for their matchup. The bracket will be chosen randomly on the day of the event as people show up. There is no sign up for the event other than joining the server at the time and date posted below. We will be taking 48 participants max. If you are participating, it would be appreciated if you listen to instructions as well as avoid rebelling and trolling so that the event can run smoothly. If it becomes a problem admins will deal with those people accordingly. If you have any questions, feel free to ask below. Good luck everyone and hope to see you there! When Saturday, April 18th @ 7PM EST Where Jailbreak server IP: jb.steam-gamers.net:27015 Map jb_vipinthemix_hdr_fix Prize The winner will get a skin of their choice under $5 While you are here you might as well join our steam group!

I think this is a great idea to help balance rounds out especially on maps like razor. I also see the ratio being messed up quite often heavily in favour of Ts so maybe this will encourage people to play CT more often. Here’s a few items i think should be added: Healthshot I believe the healthshot is a better alternative to the health station for a couple reasons. There is already at least 1 medic on every map, a health station would make a temporary 2nd medic for CTs (or Ts i guess) and could lead to more camping. A healthshot on the other hand is a one time use item so it would provide for a quick health boost to get right back into the situation. Armor I think we can all agree that replenishing armor would be a huge help for CTs. I dont see a reason why this shouldnt be an option in a potential CT menu. Radar In my opinion radar would be a good addition to help end rounds sooner. It would help CTs locate the last few Ts if they are rebelling especially if theres only 1 CT left. It would also help stop Ts from camping on soccer catwalk for 2 minutes as the last CT runs around the map trying to find them. There should be some sort of cooldown to prevent it from being abused to find rebelers every single round. Some other ideas/suggestions: Ammo refill I dont see this as something thats necessary as i dont think many CTs run out of ammo but it could be considered if people think it would be helpful. Speed boost Definitely an interesting idea from SwaG^. While it could be helpful i see this being used to just run fast instead of in helpful situations. similar to how a lot of CTs go for the former nyan cat secret on moonjail instead of helping their teammates. Shields Correct me if im wrong but i think shields were added to dangerzone unless im tripping and thinking of a warowl video. This is an interesting idea that could be quite helpful to CTs by providing them cover while out in the open. Shields would be a set amount of credits and last until they are destroyed or if the CT with it dies during the round. The biggest question here for me is if this is even possible and how much it would impact the game. I’m not sure how a credit system for a buy menu would be implemented, obviously it cant be done by kills like on TTT. Getting a credit every x amount of rounds is a start but not the best way of doing it imo. maybe getting a credit for winning an LR could be one of the ways? If anyone has any thoughts on the items or how to earn credits definitely add on to this as there is a lot to discuss with an idea like this.

Happy Easter boys

welcome back dawg!

What server did you have this idea for @Mealtedmeister?

I was thinking of having multiple rounds similar to how the show Forged in Fire is done. Round 1 would be something like the basic foundations for a map in the first hour, then everyone would be judged and scored on that part. Round 2 would be making the map functional and have another round of scoring. Round 3 could be polishing everything up and having it be fully functional and maybe have the maps scored based on how they perform in game. This is purely a suggestion, I don't know too much about map making so if this style was to be adopted the main goal of each round and the round times would be picked by Damon or whoever's judging the contest if the example above isnt realistic. Either way, this sounds like a great idea and a fun way to get new maps on the servers.

what if someone joins the discord but doesnt have a forum account? If it’s possible with the bot you’re suggesting would they be given a “guest member” or “player” role or would it have to be done manually by CAs?

there is a /tts that is built into discord on desktop which admins have access to but I believe it can be given to lower ranks/roles as well. My biggest "concern" with completely switching from teamspeak to discord is that people will just make their own private servers instead of using the main one whether it's to VC or casually chat. This was sort of brought up in the meeting and I think Dominic said he hopes people wouldn't make private servers to sabotage the main one. There are many private servers owned by SG members and I don't think any of them were created with the intention of sabotaging the main one. If it was more convenient to create private servers rather than private channels in teamspeak I'm sure it would happen too. Realistically, I would say its more appealing to create your own server and invite your friends than to make one of the proposed private channels in the main discord for a few reasons. I don't think anyone has an issue with trying to improve the discord server and making it a more active place for the community but getting rid of teamspeak right off the bat doesnt seem like the right thing to do, especially with how preferred it is by a lot of the community.

it was suggested here but is low priority compared to implementing the new LR plugin and fixing gun toss.

its a lot more clean and has that Damon vibe to it. I really enjoy playing the new version, well done.
