    Call of Duty 2, they way it is presented at UAN, has gotten stale. It has gotten boring. There is no other way to put it.

    Spray and pray? Where is the skill in this? 30 some odd chances to get a headshot is all I see it as. This is very discouraging to someone who does take the time to aim once in a while.

    Also, what is with the extreme accuracy of the thompson/mp40? I was playing toujane today, and was pretty much sniped from the other end of the map with a thompson. This is not the first time.

    Furthermore, the map rotation...well...is rather terrible. The same maps are played over and again (see: Coalmine, bridge)

    Now, I am not calling for a total end to everything as it is. I just think it needs to be changed up once in a while. Now, before someone says "There are forced bolt or forced rifles on X" let me state that Forcing it does not work. When it is forced, people just treat the weapon as close to their precious semi-automatics as they can, or the game becomes a grenadefest.

    I have seen that there was talk of a possible "stock" server, which would probably be more of a step in the right direction. Perhaps there just needs to be a change in the weapon strength, I don't know.

    I just know that the way the server is now, I cannot find myself able to finish one round, because the only way to get a kill is with the Thompson or mp40.

    Spraying and Praying takes no skill, I don't care what you say butzie >:|

    I might come back when things get a bit less stale here. But right now, I just can't play Call of Duty 2 anymore.

    we do have an S+D server up Yalzin, stock maps plus a couple extras, speed is slowed down, you'd have to ask Mullet and Elmo what exactly it is configured for, but as i said to you the other night on the main server, i find the gameplay a little stale myself, but for the sake of it's popularity the main server will not change drastically if at all.

    now, are you done whining so you can meet me for some S+D on the new server this evening?

    I agree with most of what you've written yalzin. CoD has become very boring for me as well. I'm sure some people might say "well, fuck you, you dont like it, then leave" but if this is how people feel, i dont see any harm in addressing it.

    I wish we could get all of our players, or at least a larg number of them to visit our forums.

    Mix things up!

    Can i vote for u again Butzie? we speak your name.

    I tried a few servers when i started this adventure called COD2 a few months ago, and to be honest with all of u, they sucked ass, i got bored real f'n fast, i liked and still like the style of play here, i am a proud Thompson whore and enjoy the random rifle only maps, they slow down my heart rate back to normal, i am all for the idea of making the different servers with different settings, give people the option of playing stock or mod, see what becomes more popular and make the adjustments.

    There is a very thin line between bitchin and feedback.

    i'll agree whole heartedly that the main server should not be changed, it is popular for what it is, and always has been.



    but i believe the feeling is that there is some staleness for some members after having played on a balls-out modded to the nuts server for so long.



    this is not a problem, we keep the main as is, we get out our frustrations on the SD server or do whatever we need to it to make it stocky or whatever.



    everyone's happy, if anyone is unhappy, get over it princess, we're doing the best we fucking can!

    Stop attacking everything someone says that isnt what you want

    yelling and bitching is not the same as talking and speaking like a normal person. If you've noticed, you are the only person who is cursing and being an ape.

    I haven't read anywhere or heard anything about going "stock" with the server. Some settings need to be tweaked because retards with thompsons run around and do nothing but annoy you. Sorry, but that's not fun. Contrary to your belief, it also does NOT require skill. I also hate campers, but they are part of the game. As are the shits that use the thompson. There is a happy medium, we just need to find it, instead of starting fights with all of our members. In the last month, you've gone off the deep end with about 4 of our members. WTF.

    right now cod2 is not stale for me. ive been playing bf2 almost exclusively except for the last couple of days, and ive missed that blindly running around/ fucking shit up that you dont get in bf2.

    however for me, the times where its rifle only on the server, my heart rate gets up more than others. i feel more anxious because i know i cant just blow someone away easily like i can with a mg.

    but until someone put up the gametype lists, i had completely forgotten about stuff like HTF and HQ. i think spreading the game types around will go a long ways in making it interesting

    The problem with the voting system is the idiots that vote for the same type of game every chance they get, i don't know if there is a solution for the rotation issue, it's impossible to make everyone happy.

    I still look forward for my wife to go to bed, put my kid to sleep, slap on the headphones and then feel sorry in the morning for going to bed at 2 am.

    This much energy going in to this issue, only means, that u guys really care about having to best server out there.

    And it is>>>

    the main server shouldnt be changed, at least not now, and not all of a sudden. People obvious love the server and it should stay that way, that's why we need feedback...
    isnt it possible to get rid of the voting system and create a kind of random map rotation which is being changed everyday?

    Alright, few things here.

    For organizational sake, I will direct these to Butzie

    -Where is the skill in running and gunning? All you get is a 1/30 chance of getting a head shot. I'm sorry, but that gets rather old after a few times. This is my own personal belief, and you are free to disagree with it.

    -The argument I presented was not for a complete change, hell, I don't even care if it is the main server or another one. I am saying that it is STALE. It is the SAME as it has been for a while, Run and Gun/Machinegun/ect.

    -Also, what is with the personal attacks Butzie? I had not directed ANYTHING at you, and all of a sudden I *suck* because I get frustrated and end up quitting? Most of the time I have a positive K:D ratio, and end up dropping, cause I get bored.

    I would like to thank the posters here who have shown some SENSE and Tact. Drawn has been courteous in this, offering a path to compromise, saying "this is what can be done" instead of "You suck, get over it, it's my way or that's it."

    Did you become Overlord Butzie?

    Don't get me wrong, I like you and everything, but I think you have acted rather childish in this topic.

    Ok first of all I was MUCH more childish in my post! Second, We all knew what would happen when we voted Butzie into office. Absolute power corrupts absolutely but in Butzies case it makes him apoplectic. I think its great and Yaltzin its time we had some good old fashion beatings around here. Followed by massaging of egos and man hugging (with Mrs. hollowpants in the middle). So in conlusion remember Butzie is never right hes just in control. To think anything else is to invite madness. Go ahead Yaltzin take him to task. We're watching.

    Hope this helps.

    Everyone will be all pissed off because they still arent any good and want to change this and that to better benefit their gameplay. The bottom line is, the more you play, the better you are and ultimately will be. If you don't play for several months (Yalzin) you will suck big donkey dinks when you come back.

    That is from your first post. Now, I was complaining BEFORE I even left. Ask anyone that was around, I was VERY vocal about my displeasure.

    On the 1/30 thing.

    30 bullets. It takes 1 to kill with a headshot. I am not sayign that it happens every time, but it happens more than it should, because the only guns used are the Thompson and the MP40.

    On your scope and camp point. Kill cam is on. You can be found very easy, and if you want to die, you stay in the same spot.

    Again, I was only saying that it has gotten stale, and that something needed to happen, and by the responses, I am far from the only one.

    Oh, and congrats on being Overlord.

    Look, I came to UAN because it was cracked, populated, and fun. But then, things were being added or removed, different things were being tried. Now, all that is happening is a few maps that rarely get played, and that's it. When I started here, I could play a machinegun round at Carenten, or even rifle there if I wanted too. I could Machinegun at Matmata, and then have sniping fun at Brecourt.

    Now...either it is forced rifles, or it is all machineguns. There is no incentive to play with the snipers or regular rifle like there used to be.

    I'm sure you will lose sleep over me not coming back if that is the case. But if things stay the way they are, that's exactly what is goign to happen, sorry to say. There are other games, and while I do enjoy playing with UAN on CoD2 (and in the past, BF2), it has gotten to the point where it just is not fun anymore. I enjoy the people (minus the attitudes at times), but it's just boring.

    Well, I wasn't reading your post anyway. I saw it was from Simon, and disregarded it.

    Jk, <3
