Ok hype, then ignore him. You're not going to change his opinion and he's not going got change yours. I'm sick of the theatrics of this non-issue that you even apparently got other members of your clan to chime in on. I don't know why you want to drag this out (entertainment perhaps?) and I don't really care.

For the record, I agree that complaining about gamma/brightness/contrast settings and saying it's ruining the game is a bit ridiculous, but your theatrics about someone saying that are equally ridiculous. This entire thread is ridiculous, both sides of it.
 Do what every other user does and just ignore it. There's really nothing left to be discussed.

Seeing as this devolved from an already iffy "feedback" thread into a stupid argument going nowhere, I'm going to lock this. If you want to drag this out even further for no apparent reason them make a thread in the spam section. :lock:

So by that, players that use headphones or sound cards also ruin the game? I see it as him saying I cheat because he said I am ruining this game, which is ridiculous.
I can't speak for him nor can I speak for your understanding of what he said. I'm simply saying that maybe it's not exactly what you think it is. There's not much else I can really say here. You gotta talk to Spanky.

Lol bitching about contrast binds. Now i've seen it all. I use the same two binds hype uses, it just makes it either slightly brighter or slightly darker, really not a big deal. I still use night vision on every map thats dark, i'm assuming hype does as well. I agree with you though killaman, this shouldn't have become a forum thread...what was said in the shoutbox was good enough. Spanky was definitely insinuating that hype was "cheating" though, which is pretty lame. I'm willing to bet he's never even played with hype.
I wouldn't automatically claim that saying something gives you an advantage is an accusation of cheating. Better headphones gives you an advantage but nobody considers it cheating.

A player disagreement would be between another player and myself. As an assist admin, you have to understand others may view your opinion more highly and publicly expressing that is slander against me. That is the main point I am trying to make and why it's in this forum topic.
Again, how is it slander against you? He never said you were cheating, just that it gave an advantage, which you yourself acknowledged.

An opinion? A shoutbox comment for everyone to read, from an assist admin, stating I am basically cheating...you don't see that as a problem? Then again, you're an admin as well and probably don't like the idea of actually behaving professionally.

Anyway, in-game video settings do not adversely affect a map. A few feet visibility further but that's about it. Point is it's part of the game and working as intended. Not a bug, not something no one else can do. Chill.
Chill? You're the one that got so worked up you made a forum thread about pretty much nothing noteworthy.

Quite a childish jab from the person trying to claim moral superiority here. You have no idea how I act when it comes to serious matters of Assist. I break no rules and I don't let anyone else break rules, regardless of who it is.
No rules were broken here. At worst this is a player disagreement, and one of the lightest ones I've ever seen.

The bottom line is that he thinks altering the settings gives you an advantage. You ever said it yourself, you can see further. How much doesn't even matter, there is an advantage to it.
THAT IS AN OPINION. It is not currently considered cheating as you are not banned for doing it.
Messing with the gamma/brightness/contrast settings can break the balance of some maps. For instance, take swamp raid and HQ raid. Assault is given NVGs to compensate for Defense having the easier side. When you can adjust your settings to see clearly without NVG it compromises the balance of the map.

I realize that being an ex comp player you're used to everyone using every trick available, but this isn't competition. Just because everyone CAN do it doesn't mean everyone knows that they can or even how to do it for each map.

I know, as a player admin, if I saw a dev state someone is cheating I'd be all about banning them and I'm pretty sure that was Spanky's intent - to stir up the community.
Where exactly did he say you were cheating again? I must have missed it.

I don't know what else to tell you. Like I said, Spanky probably shouldn't have said it, but you're really reaching for a problem to complain about here.

Looks like someone rubbed you the wrong way. :P
Sure, maybe Spanky shouldn't be saying that, but you seem to care way too much about the opinion of one person, despite who he may be.

What ever happened to just ignoring people? Instead you made a big post about an admin who's opinion is different than yours?
I don't like how you can change your gamma, contrast, and brightness settings to make a night map look like day time either. I'm just not as vocal about it. I don't like it and I don't like people that take advantage of it. It would be disabled if we could get away with it without losing all the comp weenies that would cry about having to actually use night vision on maps.
This is MY opinion. Be offended all you want, but it's not going to change anything. We don't agree, that happens. There's no need to start making threads about it.

Also, slander? Get the fuck out of here. Spanky's comments really hurt your character or your credibility in the eyes of others? Your reputation has been damaged? Come on.

You're really stretching here to make this bigger than it really is. This warranted a shoutbox response, not a damn forum thread.

60 hertz screen can give you max 30 FPS.
lol, no. 60hz means it shows a max of 60 fps. Have you ever wondered what v-sync does? It locks your framerate to your monitor's refresh rate, hence for most people it's at 60 fps. Spanky beat me to it though.

Hello,

The extra percentages don't really matter.

As long as you get a good 30FPS at your monitors best resolution who cares as the rest is not visible.

And yes I have had a super high end machine and now have the lowest of the low, game play is way more important than graphics, and I still get 30FPS.

Steve

For PC gaming it's all about 60 fps. I don't like anything under 60. It looks choppy to me.

I'd like to have a nice nvidia powerhouse GPU but my budget won't allow it either. Plus, I don't like the idea of supporting them, they're really shitty with the way they do things. AMD takes the more opensource style of approach with new features and doesn't try to over-advertise and bash the competition.
Yeah, but there's a certain point where buying AMD just doesn't make sense anymore. For one, nvidia has a better product. The GTX 970 has roughly the safe performance (usually better) than the AMD 290x with a lot less power consumption and a lot less heat.
I'd also like to point out that it takes AMD a while to get their cards running well for big new games. I don't blame this on AMD though, as most of these new games are working with Nvidia the whole time and AMD is probably an afterthought for the developers. It just sucks to see how much developers are favoring Nvidia right now.

That's a good PC build though. Spanky will probably kill be for saying this but I honestly would have gone without the SSD and got a better GPU.

I found it. This account:
http://battletracker.com/playerstats/aao/742334/

It got caught using an old detected hack.
User.ini AutoLoad=(MenuClassName="Live_Jump.crussiesspersonalaaInteraction",bPreInitialize=True)


Wasn't a personal ban, just facts. It was a year and a half ago, I don't think you'll be unbanned.
An argument and shadowbot are the same thing, right?

Nobody changed it, that's the post count specific title everyone has. "Posts like a Spanky" is 10000+ posts. I don't know if that's old or someone just added it, but technically nobody changed anything. :P

Wtf a 300 killa?? At least you should of gotten a gsxr 600  or 750  )))))) 

Still be safe on your bike a lot of nuts out there on the road


lolz. buying a gixxer as your first bike typically ends up with you on the pavement and a hole in your wallet for repairs and medical bills. :P
The 300 is a great bike to start on and resells for almost as much as you buy it for. In a year or 2 I'll sell it and get something bigger.

More like Kawasucki amirite?
U jelly bro?

nope u need 2 plates in us but i refuse to ruin the look of the car with a stupid front plate
I realize this post was a while ago but I just wanted to correct you. It depends on what state you are in. Here in Michigan you only have 1 license plate on the back. You don't get one for the front.
https://www.cars.com/articles/2013/10/how-many-states-require-front-license-plates/

Knowing you posted this when you still lived in Illinois you should be happy to see that Florida doesn't require a front license plate either. :P

On topic though, I recently purchased a 2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300 as my first bike.





Aside from being a blast to ride, the thing is awesome on gas too, getting almost 70mpg. It will save me a lot of gas money going to school and work. The insurance is also surprisingly cheap, I'm only paying about $45/month, which is less than half of what I pay for my car.
I just wish I lived further south so I could ride it for a larger portion of the year. My car is a 2001 Ford Taurus if I never posted it before.
