Definitively one of the best in the league, but I wouldn't say #1. One of the best of all time?? Definitiely not yet lol

I do wish that some parts of JB come back soon as well. But until then we just gotta deal with what is in front of us. Have fun playing TTT!

Like Vanya stated, I don't think CTs need any current buffs at the moment. The shop is really awesome and has been keeping CTs alive longer. Increasing the quality of CTs should be the main focus. For the command !drop, it would make CTs too strong and unfair to verse in many situations. Drop would practically give anyone free kills. Side note, but if you can't aim and still decide to play CT, you shouldn't be given such a huge assistance for something that you can fix on your own time. As for incentives, it's pretty difficult coming up with all around good ideas. Everyone wants these incentives to be perfect and incentivizing to their liking, but that's insanely hard to do. Which is why I sometimes believe that there isn't much you can do besides fix how Jailbreak is played on our servers. We vote for these insanely T-sided maps, which obviously makes playing CT not as fun. We have 2000 secrets on these maps, making it super easy and fun for Ts, not for CTs. Not to mention that we have players that complain about imbalance ratios and not good CTs, yet they are the ones not playing CT! It's much easier to point fingers and complain than to actually start change. Until we have players willing to suck it up and help the game, we potentially might be stuck in a loophole for awhile.

Everyone's points have been reset. Let the games begin!

Bumping the thread. The goal is to start at midnight!

Congrats all!

Gotta keep the server active as long as possible D:

Thank you @crazedkangaroo for the banner edit! Hello everybody! It's been awhile since we've had a 1v1 event, so here we are! This is how it's going to work. Everyone's points will be reset when the event begins. The top three players by the end of the month will win a prize. You can see who is on top by using the command !top or !rank to see what rank you are. Good luck! 1st: + Forts 2nd: + Darkside Detective 3rd: + StatTrak™ Desert Eagle | Light Rail (Battle-Scarred) Where? 1v1 Server - 167.114.180.27:27015 When? August 14th - September 11th

I’d still play for JB, but the TTT members are way higher skilled in CSGO. Calling how it is lmao.

Huh, I’m not sure if this needs to be an official event, but can be more of a fun thing that can be planned. Also, I can tell you that the TTT team would stomp the JB team.

Thank you for all that you’ve done Bacon. I hope you’re very successful in life. Stay safe and healthy! Hope to see you around in discord more!

No, I didn't get the 2 confused. I just accidentally typed health shot each time because I'm also used to TTT where they have a health shot as well. My point was it's super silly to force CTs when they're "suppose" to use an item, especially one that uses ALL their credits for the round. Anyway, both purchases help to fight rebellers. One requires you to put away your guns and heal, the other is instant. There are obvious times where a health shot would be more useful/efficient and times where that quick 135 boost to full HP is needed. You, I or anyone doesn't have the right to tell someone when to use one or the other. This is why I'm so confused about why you're trying to force CTs to use them at specific times. I guess AT's are the only ones to "force" something, but that usually will come with discussions and ideas to be thrown around. I go into "more" detail in the next paragraph, but this pretty much summarizes what I'm trying to get at. Like Vanya has stated, you are sacrificing all your credits for the boost of health. If I decide to use the boost right before I fight 2 people, I just made it way more fair for me. But what just happened? I lost all my credits for the rest of the round. Now the only way to heal is medic. This is why it's balanced. If I'm being forced when to use my one time boost when the round just begins, where majority of players don't have any gun (besides a pistol or two), then I would probably buy the health boost left open and be forced to buy the health shots later, which are weak and situational like you stated. Neither!

I can’t comment on how strong the CT buy menu is because I haven’t played JB in awhile. But what I can say is that your suggestions wouldn’t be effective at all. The first 20-30 seconds in the round is when the CTs are getting their guns and first giving orders. Many of the orders during this time involve staying in your cell, so that limits the Ts from going out and getting weapons from elsewhere, which means limited early game gunfights. Also, most of the CTs will be full health or not low enough for it to be worth purchasing the 135 hp health boost. So, limiting the healthboost during this time (or any time) would make no sense, nor be beneficial. As for the “can’t be used within 45 seconds of taking any sort of damage” idea, this is even worse. 45 seconds is almost 1/5 of the round. Not only would this hurt CT gameplay, but would probably make people play CT less. Even if you lowered the time to 15 seconds, you are still hurting the CTs chances of living or fighting off multiple rebellers. With how T-sided our server is along with many situations where there are an imbalance amount of CTs & Ts, I think the health boost is fine where it is.

I'm just going to give my two cents on the idea of a chat order plugin in general, not for this specific one. I don't think a chat order plugin should be implemented. The system we have now is fine when it comes to voice and chat orders. Chat orders are allowed and anyone who does a voice order can cancel the last one. Also, we have a fine balance of players who use mics and those who don't. Just because someone doesn't have a mic or doesn't want to use one doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to give orders. The way I look at chat orders is this: If you want to use chat orders, you can. But don't get mad when someone with a microphone takes over and gives a different order. A CT with a mic makes the game easier, so I find it fair that their order overrides a chat order. Lastly, I really don't see any game-changing benefits to this. I'm not even sure how much work/time it would be for the TT. Side note, if you can't quickly look in chat to see if there's a chat order, I don't think the chat order is the problem. This would never happen, nor does it make sense. I understand your frustration with players who don't have mics/won't use them, but it is what it is. Just gotta pay attention to what's being said in chat or voice. Would it be easier for everything to be done over voice? 100%. But there is no "power shift". I don't even know what you mean that.

Congrats everyone!

ZZL said it perfectly. @Bacon @Infinityward If one of you wants to officially answer it.
