So TF2 had a pretty sweet update today. Allowing Macs to play. Well Valve made another one time only item that only players who play on a mac can get: Ipod earbuds
I ran into some clearly new and very talkative player with earbuds and he saw my engie muffs and asked how I got the cool headphones. When he didn't buy "for ignoring teammates that ask for teleporters" I told him they were really PC exclusive headphones we got instead of earbuds. This guy started throwing the exact same poo poo-fit PC users do about earbuds, instead about how all he got were crappy earbuds and PC users got the cool-looking headphones.

Someone was trying to tell him I was bullshitting but he just ranted over them: That's not fair, I want the big headphones too. What if I don't like earbuds, can I trade them for headphones? They can't just give mac users a free item then give all the PC users a better item, that's so not fair. :cry:

"Jailbreak" is a Counter strike custom gamemode where the CT's are the prison guards, and the T's are the prisoners. The T's have to do everything the CT's say or they will be killed, but watch out the T's could get a gun and start a rebellion!

This attracts many people with giant egos because they get to boss people around, which in turn makes it easy to grief because when they lose their power they rage. And/or the obvious serious roleplayers that if you don't follow *their* rules to the dot they will try and get you banned, which many griefers like to parody (i.e. I AM THE LAW).

There's a testing chamber for figuring out who's innocent and who's a traitor, but it's a leap of faith to get tested because all sorts of bad things can happen to you, one of which is when a second person follows you into the actual chamber, killing you both. Having all the bodies piled together like that on this map makes servers lag the gently caress out, if you watch the net_graph in the video when the round starts over he's getting ~150-200ms and by the time they've got a dozen bodies in that testing chamber it's over 600ms. We've actually crashed the PEZ server doing this before, which is why you can see the one guy trying to stand in front of the chamber trying to keep people from running in but he just gets crowbarred in the face as the goons continue their reverse clown car antics.

It's a long story
UO really was a game all about ruining other people's fun. I already posted a few stories about a friend of mine but I just remembered another one. He had a really long running feud with another group of guys on the shard. He was good enough to beat any single one of them in a fight most times, but there always seemed to be 3 or 4 of them online whenever he played and anytime he killed one he'd have to immediately flee the area or else get ganked by a whole group at once.

So one night I go over to his house and it turns out he's gotten lucky enough to find the leader of the guild on all by himself. This shard had a sort of pirate town that had no guards and was one of the only safe places for murderers and criminals to access the bank and shops. He had been killing this guy over and over again not letting him get to the bank so he could re-equip.

Finally the guy escapes and he starts screaming about how he's bringing his whole guild with him, you'll pay for this, etc etc. My friend goes to the pet store in town and starts buying bears. Bears were strong enough to be a threat to a low or mid level character but he and the people he was fighting could take on 3 or 4 pretty easily. He buys about 50 bears and casts invisibility on each one.

So around this time the other guys get there, ready to pound him in a 4 on 1. As soon as they start hitting him with magic, all these bears suddenly appear and start swarming them. Everyone lags up with so much stuff happening at once and by the time everything settles down, there's this giant pile of dead bears surrounding four heavily armoured corpses.

There are basically two aiming schemes. Expert which forces you to do all of the aiming yourself (not including Dead Eye - standard slowmo, etc.) and Casual which is exactly what you saw in that video. It's essentially an aimbot. All gunfights devolve into who's faster at holding up to aim at the head and/or who can mash the trigger more quickly

Nah. In the GTA4 multiplayer and Red Dead, the guy hosting the game has the initial option of setting multiple levels of autoaim. For some reason the host (the raging guy) had it turned up, but didn't expect a griefer to come rolling up in the server and PKing everyone. They were newbies with lovely weapons and couldn't kill him.

I'd just like to point this one out. While the servers that run TTT are terrible, the guy that makes it *GASP* actually pays attention to things and updates his poo poo and makes the game playable when we big ol jerks ruin it. In fact, it earned him $5K and he'll soon be getting actually Steam Based Achievements in the near future.

One of those updates was remving the collision between ragdolls as the default state of servers. Also removing the clipping between players, so that we can't hem someone in anymore.

In return, he made the Traitor Weapons more awesome including a 'Newton Gun' which is basically designed to turn a traitor into a master of rear end in a top hat Physics with a big old fuckoff Push Gun. The Detectives will also be getting their DNA scanners by default, making them much more usefull and totally not useless anymore.

Another thing I did in UO was build like hundreds of desks and go to the Brit west bank. When dropping them on the same tile they'd stack on top of each other so I'd build walls of desks blocking off sections of the bank. By blocking paths people had to walk long ways around and the only way to get through my wall was to remove each desk one by one from a stack to get through. I had so many desks I just kept putting them back as people did this.

Some people hated it, others loved it. People would go "Wow what is that!" and I'd say "It's my orc fort to protect Britain from orcs". I'd let some people in and give them desks and they'd help me keep the fort repaired from people tearing it down trying to get through. I used other items to build windows etc and like 5 of us were partying in our little orc fort. I even gave everyone orc masks to wear.

Eventually I ran out of desks and my fort was demolished, so I did it again 10 minutes later after building more desks.

It's a long story
There were two great spells in Ultima Online for greifing. The first was called blade spirit. It was a big spinning mass of blades that you could summon. Once it was summoned you'd lose all control of it and it would go nuts on anyone near by. There was another spell called Energy Vortex which was pretty much the same thing only way stronger.

Both of these spells could be killed by a low level dispel spell, but a lot of newbies might not have it yet, and even experienced players often didn't have it set to a macro.

You could cause a ton of panic and chaos in a dungeon by suddenly bringing in monsters way above the expected power level. The best thing about it was that a lot of player houses were bugged in a way that let you cast a spell through a wall onto a specific tile. Normally a person would have to be standing in the exact right space to hit them, but you could summon monsters into their houses with them. It was an easy kill on anyone doing afk macroing.
