Death Warrant Forums

Maybe, I doubt it though. That doesn't seem like it would have that great of an effect, considering that the null texture didn't apply to a significant amount of monsters back when it was used. I mainly saw it on Raptors, shrike, luci, and alot of monsters actually turned clear (i.e. moles) and that was it. I saw very few monsters turn black back when it was null. So maybe it's a problem now, but it's always been a problem, and wouldn't be what Franky is talking about.

ROFL

My high score is only 11k :P

truthfully i think franky is mad because i got an inf petri combo on video shack and in combo with a lil light rod with triple it appeared that no monsters would spawn because i killed them so fast....was kinda funny :tool:

oh and since d2 posted before i could my high score solo was 16k and high score w/ ppl was 31k :compress:

haha oh franky...pull up your big girl panties and get your own petrification weapon. clearly you're slacking :D.

just kidding :compress:

If i got a petrification mp5 i usually use it only on flying monster (seeker, waillords) and on the vargary. This way i never end up abusing the weapon. The kind of stats i get are usually like this :

Shock rifle : 200 kills
mp5 : 150 kills
flak canon : 150 kills
mine layer : 100 kills
lighning gun 50 kills
Reedemer : 50 kills

But if you realy want me to abuse the petrification mp5 i can do it but i dont think all the other players will appreciate having no monsters to kill.

I'm just saying that trying to restrain yourself to use an overpower weapon and by that way leaving some monster to kill to lower level so they can survive is a mark of respect. Infortunatly, not everyone think that way and i got to admit this is affecting me more then i taugh (it kind of pisses me off). But im aware that we all live in a free world and we are all free to use any type of gameplay (not considering cheats and aim bot of course).

okay, i've gotten the high score once or twice by only using a medic minelayer (a very NOT powerful weapon), so does that mean i abused it? in fact, if it's available that's usually the only weapon i use unless an adren master makes me a nice mp5 or something. AND, if i get a good weapon combo (like an inf null mp5), hell yes i'm going to use it the entire game. just because a player takes a weapon and uses it well doesn't mean they're abusing anything.

besides that, you ALREADY take most of the kills when you play -especially when there are no other high levels around- regardless of what weapon(s) you used. in that case, we could say you abuse ALL of the weapons. see, this is how some of us feel playing with you :). (and omg, the horror of ONLY getting an 11k point game :P)

Do you know how much time it took me just to be able to get 60% accuracy on the shock rifle. Do you ever imagine how much days... no months... i've been praticing in DM to be able to just become good with hit scan weapon. And even with all that im still just an average player in TAM. I dont have any problem with the medic guns since they are not overpowered like petri is so i dont care about that, neither the infinite. But to think that any noob without any aiming skills can just rape everything with a petrification mp5... and me like a dubass just trying not to abuse the petri mp5.... You know what, your'e right... i'm just an old fool with principles and i've been lost into it. I just dont see the point playing this game anymore. I'm better off playing TAM and ONS... Good ridence stupid INV...

You will now be able to get all the kill you need now.... Oups... thats right... everyone is gonna abuse the petrification mp5 now... WELL GOOD LUCK.

okay WOW franky...i never said you were a fool for...whatever it is you just said. i wasn't trying to convince you to stop playing because you get a lot of kills. all i was saying is that you're a good player and you don't have anything to worry about with people "abusing" the petrification mp5.


maybe that's just that particular player's preferred weapon. you have your preferences right (i know a piercing shock is one of your favorites)? and you've used those weapons and, like you said, practiced with them. the person who got that score obviously used a null long before it was petrification and did the same. no noob is going to get that kind of score, i don't care what the weapon is. i mean, i have no aiming skills whatsoever (why do you think i use a minelayer most of the time, haha), but that doesn't mean i'm going to magically be able to rape the server if you put a petrification mp5 in my hands. and you know, this isn't TAM or ONS. you can be good at one and not the other. aiming at a titan or a raptor is a lot different than aiming at players punching their keyboards and jumping/running/doing backflips all over the place. i'd like to think that the people on the other side of the computer screen are much smarter than the monsters we're fighting (of course we can't be too sure about some of them.....just kidding). that makes it a lot more difficult.


my entire point was that you already get really high scores. i'll bet you ten bucks that whoever got that score was a really high level and has been playing for quite a while. and i'll bet you another ten bucks that not everyone in the world is going to start relying on that particular weapon because one player got 304952398743279 points in one game. now, if several people under level 100 got that kind of score by only using a petrification mp5 plus whatever, i might see your point. but as of right now, i really have no idea what you're so upset about. either way, i hope you don't decide to stop playing because of one weapon/glitch/score/game/player...whatever it is.


and don't try to fool us and say you think INV is stupid. if you honestly thought that, would you REALLY be this upset? i think not. you love this game and you know it :tongue:.

I hardly ever use the mp5 and probably still won't because I'm a fool who doesn't buy ammo bonus so it runs out in a few seconds.. Petrification Flak ftw though :P

franky cant stop playing...if he does he wont hear my sexy voice anymore

Franky,
Not sure why this topic has gone on this far. You are one of the highest lvl players in the game and 99.9999999% of the time when I play in a game with you your score is always the highest. To get the highest score you have to kill everything in sight which would then leave very little for others to kill. If for some reason your upset that you arent winning every game now then shame on you for making the post. I don’t think there is any difference between the old NULL and the new Petrification weapon. In fact I think the old Null was better. Just my opinion though and Yes if I get 2 MP5’s and 1 is an INF and 1 is a Petrification I will run the map most of the time. I have earned the right, as have you, to win every map we play. This will not discourage people from playing but will actually encourage them to want to be higher lelvel players to be like those of us who score the most on each map. If people were upset that you or any other higher level player were killing everything and leaving nothing for them then I am sure there would be posts about it in the forums. Just like you I have practiced with all weapons and will use whatever one I feel will enable me to survive. Most lower level players will be happy just getting the Luci XP at the end of the map. In fact during the later waves when everyone is dead I think most people are happy when we are able to survive to give them another chance. If it takes me using the Petrification MP5, NRG Flak, INF Link or any other weapon to win the map then isnt that part of the game? I don’t understand why you would be upset and want to quit playing INV because of it. If you were that concerned and now seem to be that upset maybe you should have talked to Wraith and others to see if they could look into it and not make the post that seems to have upset you even more. I’m sure your intentions are good and I am in no way trying to negate your concerns but come on Franky it’s only a game.

...pull up your big girl panties and get your own petrification weapon. clearly you're slacking :D.

ROTFL :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Good one SupernovA!

Speaking of killing monsters and having them being cleared out quickly, what about if we put weaponspeed down to the same amount as server 2 is at? Namely 100 is the max on server 2. Just the 5 point difference in speed can make enough of a difference to keep the critters alive for a longer period of time.....

...and yes, Virginia, you would gain 5 points if this was done....
