You're supposed to have to ride the platform at the bottom of the rocket up and wait for it to open, being able to cap it without doing that is a glitch.

You're not "supposed" to ride the platform up, that's just required to open the nose.

The 3 second warning only plays when the intel first becomes available, the nosecone doesn't open until the platform reaches the top, and the platform only rises when the intel carrier is on it, so there's either glitches involved or some very "creative" editing going on.

I thought he was gonna dunk the intel in the insta-kill pit in the middle of the map. Because I love doing that on crowded Doomsday servers. Me and a friend spent almost half an hour as scouts, one on each team, getting the intel and dropping it into that pit and then piping space jam onto the server.

So how about some Minecraft griefing again? Joy! One of my favourite types of servers are the ones that assign you to a plot and restrict you from building outside of it. It's fairly well protected as you cannot use a piston to push blocks on to the other properties, et cetera. But what about objects that don't exactly have a fixed coordinate? Welp! I've done this on a few servers now since figuring it out. It has gotten some reactions and a few bans so far.

So I decided to give Blacklight: Retribution a try. It's a new F2P FPS that just went up on Steam, and it's actually pretty good if you can get over the fact that one can pay his way to a slight advantage. One of the main features of the game is the ability to swap out every part of your gun to create something completely custom - One such part is toxic ammunition. This stuff's only normally accessible around level 20, but you can rent a crappy little machine pistol that comes pre-loaded with the stuff fairly early on. Costs just 200 GP for a day (that's about one good match worth) and it inspires INCREDIBLE vitriol. While the toxic effect doesn't do much damage initially, it does stack with itself and cause some slight vision blurring. This means that even if you go down, your target is left debilitated and likely to die if their health was already low. As an added bonus, the constant grunting and groaning from their character acts as a beacon to the rest of your team. Probably the most fun you can have for free!

Got Moloko posted:I've also been playing this thing, and never really looked at the pre-made guns. I am so getting this thing and not ever using my main weapon again. I've been playing this too. On most of the maps there are doors all over that can restrict movement and help with defense in certain gamemodes. Fortunately, the doors will close whether you have an objective to defend or not. The doors also require you to play a quick little "number matching" game to open or close them. I've taken to running around and closing all of the doors I can find restricting everyone from going certain routes. If you time it correctly, you can even trap half your team in a room with a minigun-weilding mini-mech as they frantically and unsuccessfully try to unlock the door! What's great is when they figure you out. They inevitably ask why you're running around closing doors, taking yourself out of the fight, instead of killing the enemy. "The A/C was getting out!" "What, were you raised in a barn?" "I'm practicing to capture points!" (capturing control points in domination uses the same number match game (bonus points if you're not even playing domination)) In addition to riling up your teammates, the game gives you points for closing these doors, and if you combine that with some opportunity kills and a small amount of shooter experience there's a very real chance that you'll be near the top of the leaderboard. It doesn't hurt that when I created my player I guess I got really lucky and was given a unique robot character to play as, which normally costs a chunk of real life $ and comes with some decent weapons. The best part though is that it comes default with land mines. If you can close the other team on the other side of a door with only you behind it they'll salivate at the chance for an easy kill and all crowd around this thing waiting for it to open, only to rush directly over a landmine blowing all of them up. Then they get to watch my robot do his silly little robot dance in the killcam! And if my team wins they get to see my robot do his silly little robot dance when it shows the top 3 from the winning team! I've had multiple games where 3/4 of the players are busy all-caps cursing at me in the lobby chat while a couple random new players get to sprint around blowing their faces off.

Lately I've been playing a lot of Tribes Ascend and there's the usual thing you encounter on the Internet where people on the losing team will just leave because they're losing. But in this game the Auto Balance feature is really broken, I've been put on the other team with literally 10 seconds left on the clock denying me victory bonus xp. I don't know who they're griefing with this though since leaving prevents them from getting any xp so they've just wasted their time. One could say the devs are griefing their player base with that feature.

I've watched Chip & Ironicus' LP videos so I know the gameplay, but it'd still be fun to hear what kinda chaos RealSnake could cause People would cause all sorts of chaos in MGO. You'd have your regular matches where people played it like a typical COD match, then you'd have one bright shining gem of a game where somebody's playing a Box Assassin (there was a skill in-game where if you were hiding in a cardboard box you could leap out and instantly knock out anyone who got too close) and the game turns into every player systematically hunting down and destroying every cardboard box on the map to get rid of potential hiding places. I used to frequent CQC servers in MGO. They were servers where you couldn't use weapons and could only use melee attacks. These servers were mostly used for grinding skills like CQC and Runner. There was another skill in the game called Box Tackle, where a player wearing a cardboard box could run straight toward an enemy and hit them with the box, sending them flying a good 10 feet in the air. Almost every CQC session I've been in had somebody Box Tackle 10 people grouped up doing CQC and sending bodies everywhere. There would always be a few people who were serious business about their free to play online game, so they'd start up kickvotes on the Box Tackler. I'd always vote no, and most everyone else voted no to, so you'd end up with one person standing still raging in all-chat while everyone else played Cardboard Box jousting. I only ever got to play as Snake once, and I suck at stealth so I didn't get to do too much with him, unfortunately.

Playing as Snake was okay, I guess. Playing as the MkII was goddamn glorious. The MkII was a goofy little 2' robot on wheels that was a pain in the rear end to hit with gunfire, could roll insanely fast and cloak itself. If you got up close to someone, you could electrocute them, knocking them out for several seconds. One of the few games I played where I controlled MkII (it was random who got it), I simply rode up behind a guy and tased him in the rear end. I would speed off, become invisible and wait for him to get up... Then zip up and tase him in the rear end again. Thus began a wonderful cycle of rear end-tasing that lasted for an entire round. The dude I was zapping spent probably 85% of the round looking at goofy little cartoon yellow stars circling his unconscious head, with maybe another 10% spent shooting wildly around him trying to hit the little metal fucker who kept electrocuting his anus.

One could say the devs are griefing their player base with that feature. There is a tip in the game that clearly says "You can leave a game early, you'll still get XP, it will be rewarded when the match is over." So they are pretty much griefing you by leaving a game they were losing anyway and still getting the same XP they'd get for staying the whole time.

It's also a nightmare to clean up with most of these plot protections because clearing the plot won't even take the carts out. The person who creates the carts cannot destroy them either once they leave the boundaries.
