Morgoths labyrinth was the first special event that people can do as a team. Its sad to see it getting little to no attention with as fun as it was in the beginning, to the extent of a lot of newer player's who want to give it a shot having difficulty building a team. The majority of players consider it not worth the time for what they get out of it. If we make it so the mobs have a chance to drop loot orbs, it might bring more life back into ye old labyrinth.

It's been here since mid 2015 with little to no changes at all.

One of the biggest problems is that the prices for most of the weapons are completely unbalanced compared to what they are actually worth.

Here is what I'm talking about:

Nighthawks go for 81 frags while Swifts are only 68 and are way more sought after, and on top of that they can ONLY be purchased from the weapon shop while Nighthawks can be rolled from almost anything.
Aggro-Magnets are 29 frag while their average cost on the market is 10 coins.

Why would I spend frags that take quite a while to get on a gun that costs 10 coins? It makes no economical sense. None of the lower end guns ever get bought due to this. Not even level 5's that join the lobby for the first time think that's a good deal.

Prices need a significant overhaul of what they currently are.

Another problem is that the shop only resets once a week.

I get back in 2015 this was useful because of how limited drops were, but now that we have a bunch of farmable events and bosses(Bloodwynd, Survive, Grims to an extent), it seems pretty pointless for it to only reset once a week, when 99% of the stuff that goes in it never gets bought anyway.

It would be better if along with the price rehaul, if the shop also reset on Wednesdays.

The last problem I'm going to address is the limited amount of items that can appear in the shop.

Heroics, Kaijus, Distinguisheds, etc all can not appear in the shop. Why? Those guns are all droppable end round, and on top of that they would actually be bought from the shop.

I think we should bring back COTD's ( Crate Of The Damnded ) because there is a godlike in there that people have but not alot of people sell them. I think it should be a limited item like Bone Crates and should also be a VIP Deals crate. There are also some pets in there like the bat pet. Let me know what you think

To start off this is my personal opinion on this there obviously isn't a right answer to this rather subjective part of gameplay. However personally I think this system has a few fatal mistakes that just make it less enjoyable to have than to omit it entirely.

The first one is that the added recoil is nearly uncontrollable for many weapons to the point it's jarring as every time you fire   your field of view gets shifted up 20 degrees every bullet to the point it makes general gameplay with one enjoyable for me. Other games will at the very least also have a recoil "cap" where it won't continue annoyingly pushing your view into the sky constantly after a certain point. Here's an example of CS:GO which Is basically considered to have the hardest recoil system of any competitive game played right now compared to the insanity that is frgs recoil right now.


Ak47 is one of the guns with the highest recoil in counterstrike.

Thrakos as example since it's a higher recoil gun.

I feel like the increased cone of fire added to all guns after the recoil rework was more than enough to balance guns without making it into having to drag your mouse until it almost falls off your desk every firefight. Hell if it means getting rid of the current uncapped recoil I would much prefer guns to have even lower accuracy.

I understand why this system was added. But I feel like it went a little overboard in what it was trying to accomplish. Instead of increasing the variety of practical weapons it in fact made many that were just barely holding on before completely useless. The tartarus is relatively a stronger weapon than it was before since it was practically untouched by the nerf.
There is literally no reason to use a galil over a sg, mac10, and mp5s which were affected way less by the recoil change. Tmps are pitiful in their current state, galils are only used for events, the ascultone's only redeeming factor was the headshot damage is impossible to headshot anyone with after firing 3 bullets, huges are beyond a joke at this point, the thrakos as by shown above is like trying to fire a bucking bull.
Everyone just spams barnacles and bear traps since they don't trust winning in a firefight even if you get the drop on someone. Rounds are also dragged out longer from this. The only secondaries I see used are deagles, frostburns, and m1911s in that order at least we saw some glocks before.

I truly appreciate what the recoil system was set out to change, but It absolutely in my opinion has changed gameplay to the worse. Instead of people actually having the confidence of trying to win a 1v2 against 2 people who don't know they are traitor the other 20 dead people on the server wait 5 minutes for this to resolve through some guy blindly hitting a barnacle instead of the traitor actually trying their luck/skill so we can all get back to playing again.

TL;DR Recoil is way too high. Add a cap or reduce it overall or something else. Like seriously the recoil is so absurd compared to like any first person shooter that has ever existed.

so as we all know

"3. *NO RDM! Killing someone based on suspicion, location, gun, player model, or any other questionable means are not allowed on this server ever. You must have proof! Logical killing is not RDM. (For example, there are 3 players left alive, 1 is proven, all others have been identified. It is logical for the last non-proven innocent to kill the last traitor being the only two “unproven” left.) If you see someone look at an unidentified body and ignore it you may kill them. However, if they simply walk near it and may not have specifically aimed at it you have to ask them to identify it before killing them."

You must have proof!

Logical killing is not RDM.

Okay so now thats established, on ttt_nuclear_bunker on the fourth level from the top there is a large room with on entrance, ya know the one with the dead grass and trees, yeah that one. so there was a shotgun shot from said room, a player walks out holding a body, i walk in the room see the shotgun splatter, no bodies, no burn marks from either flare or teleport, no cloaked players in the room or exiting the room, no radio in the room. So through obvious logic with proof i kos the person carrying the body out of the empty room. Further proof i found this same player in the t tester room after hearing another shotgun shot and them iding a body immiedetly after the shotgun shot in the room with the body

So with proof is this logical killing or was it kos off location?

I don't reply to them(at least with my honest opinion) because I don't want to start any unnecessary drama, and on top of that it just seems pointless to begin with when you aren't suppose to reply to any posts on them anyways.

Can member app replies please be hidden just like staff applications?

Map the event happened on: gm_headlong

Date of event: 7/12/2017 11:00 AM CST

What Happened?: Essentially Patriotic rdm'd me two rounds in a row by killing me off of location and gun.

Witnesses: Recorded

Evidence:

If you get Traquilized on a speedy round, when you get back up you will be returned to normal speed for the round

Age: I am 15 currently.

Steam Name(Current): Kevin

Time played on servers?(!time username to check): 50 hours, no idea how long in lobby as it does not track that.

Where did you hear about this server?: I just joined off of the list of servers, and it was extremely interesting so I decided to stay, and it's been a lot of fun so far so I decided to stay and keep playing.

Have you ever been banned and why?: I have been banned once before, although the only reason why I was banned was because I changed my name during the middle of the round, however I was dead and people knew I was dead. I changed my name as a joke to something that didn't even ghost, and Kcat was on at the time, so they most likely know about this. Other than this one ban I have never been banned by a staff member, and I hope to keep it this way as I have no intent of breaking any rules.

Why do you want to join?: Because I have had a lot of fun on the server since the day I joined, I have met some people in the community and I like a lot of the people here. I usually am friendly, although I admit that a few people do make me somewhat angry on the server. I try to have fun with everyone, and I hope that anyone who I dislike can become a friend of mine at some point. I also like to joke around a lot of the time, but I do not try to break rules, if I ever do end up breaking one, it is not on purpose. I never RDM and I could take being a Member of the community responsibly, understanding that Members are supposed to be role-models for the server. I also try to help out people as much as I can, informing them about things they do not know as knew members of the community, I feel for all of these reasons I am capable of holding the rank of Member within the community.
