Bug Reports / Re: Can't play

Are you sure you're playing the training through Assist? Because you since the US army stopped support for this game, the "Save Results" button doesn't work, there's just no server to send the data to.

To do trainings through Assist, start 25Assist and then go to "TRAINING" tab:
If you haven't done any trainings yet, press on the yellow "Available" next to "Makrsmanship Training".
If you have done some trainings, press on the first yellow "Available" button below the green "Complete"(or "Comp 40/40" for Marksmanship).

Having started the training, just follow the instructions it gives you before pressing "OK"
As it tells you, after you've finished a training, you don't need to press the "Save Results" button, just exit the game.

Rinse and repeat.

Note that you have to complete the whole first group (Level 1: Basic Training), that is 4 trainings to be able to play at all.
Additional trainings open up additional maps and weapons and also the ability to heal your teammates.

I'm pretty sure there was a more thorough thread about how high ping doesn't affect the other players somewhere in these forums.

But I do agree, like said before, that it can make the person a bit harder to kill in those teleportation scenarios and that mostly it just makes for the guy with high ping to kill anyone else (from bullets taking ages to register all the way to throwing frags from a position you were at a few seconds ago).

Well I was sharing your point on latency not affecting other players connection with the server, if you read my post.

BUT. You clearly don't understand what I'm talking about ping.
You see, the game gives 2 different values for the same ping. One you see yourself, and the other is seen by anyone else. The one you see yourself is always 4 times bigger than the one everyone else sees. I don't know when they changed it, buy I'm pretty sure there used to be a time you could always see the bigger one, even on other players.

And you're definitely talking about the on divided by 4, because the distance between Austraila(you) and Germany(the server) is ~14500km, at the speed of light that can be traveled in about 48ms, but since ping is considered the round-trip from the messenger to the server and back, the minimum your ping could theoretically be would be around 96ms.

I'm pretty sure the 75 ping you have vs the 100 everyone "used to have" is quite a different story.

You others see your ping as 4 times smaller than you do. So when others see yours at 75, if you could see it, it would be 300. But since the game doesn't show you pings over 250 (in my experience), when you look at it, it just seems to go from 250 to 0 or vice versa.

And I think I remember the time when everyone just saw the higher one whether they were looking at their own ping or someone else's (I could be wrong here tho).

But for as much as I've read here (and elsewhere), your ping on a server will not affect anyone else (except when shooting at you, that's when some strange shit might happen).

Why is this topic dragging on and on? He thrives on debates and arguments, you all know this by now and yet you just keep feeding him like pouring gasoline on a fire.
I'm pretty sure if you closed this thread, he'd make at least 2 more (1 to continue this and 1 to accuse the admins of whatever he thinks they'd be responsible of).

Some admins can be ban/kick/mute-happy. You just gotta learn to live with it or leave their server.

I'll just quote ELiZ here:
There is nothing that prevents anyone from playing with 2 accounts on the same computer.
The only check that active by default is when a new account in created.
So if you try to create a new account on a computer that already has an account played on, it will be denied.
In other words, if they alreay had both accounts before this rule was implemented, they can go ahead and play.
If they didn't, then the easiest thing to do would be to create the account on a different computer and still play on that one PC.
This might, however go against the point of this rule.

No, that's not what I think. If someone said that, it would have some reason to be posted here. I just felt that comparing this to something just a little more relevant would show how small a problem this is.

Then again, my mind works in mysterious ways.

I don't really see this as a problem that needs to be brought up here. If you as a server admin don't like what he's doing, then do as you did, ban him.
It's not like he's somehow doing something bad for the whole projects, he isn't saying "let's everyone go play BF or CoD instead".

I mean I totally get that you want people to play on your server, most server admins do, but I just think it's up to every server's admins what to do in such situations.

I'd guess you can PM him, if you're not comfortable with that have him PM his email.

As for the tag, of course you can use it as your in the clan apparently. But you can't use the EXACT same name. i.e if you want to be Alpha.it you need to change your name a bit, something like "[COM]Alpha.it.". An other way to make it look sort of like "[COM]Alpha.it" in the game is to name yourself "[COM]AIpha.it", with a capitol i instead of a small L. They look almost identical in the game (not in tracker though).

hi teddy

for the fist part i do know exactly why it was implemented like it is now :) - this is not the point.

the point is the second part. and sure they do not want to cheat. but as a solution for those who would like to play with 2 accounts on 1 computer, it could be - if some of them are catched as cheater - to accept the ban for those 2 accounts. so i mean it could be like the commitment you do when you install the aa25assist, you have to say - yes, i am agree when 1 account would be catched - dosnt' matter the reason - you can bann both accounts related to this computer. so easy and more players and more fun with that - and no bigger risk at it is already now.

my friends would accept this rule (and they wouldn't if a hacking mind would lead them).

btw: you are right, this case with 1 player 1 computer was many many many many times discussed. but maybe with a new idea it could change, right? the world is still rotating ... :)
I think I see what you're saying. But it's actually always stood that if a player is caught hacking/cheating all of his account will be banned as well as the other accounts used on the same computer. There is simply no way for an admin here to know whether it was person A playing or person B, plus if one was caught using something illegal, doesn't mean the other one didn't or wouldn't use it in the future, since the program is already on the computer.

And as much as I've visited these here forums, I've yet to see somebody being told it's OK to play on 2 accounts on one computer even with 2 different people involved. Granted, there might have been such an incident and I might have missed it, and of course such compromises might have been made privately just to insure that the whole community wouldn't go and demand they have a 2nd account on their computer as well for their cousin who visits every 2 months.

People are allowed to play on only one account on one PC. As for the reasons, I'm guessing they were thoroughly discussed when the rule was implemented, but I was away so I don't know what the main points where. (I'm guessing to have less "cheater!" accusation on noob accounts and to lessen the anonymity (or increase responsibility of ones actions) ).

And Merlin, my friend, I can't really understand 100% what you're trying to say here. I understand you have a friend, who's dad is a truck driver, who  plays this game. Now your friend wants to play it as well, on the same computer I'm guessing. What I don't get is what's with the "for them it would be ok to get banned at both accounts by a hacking ban."? Are you saying they're planing to cheat on the game? Or are you just trying to say that the only reason to ban someone from the game should be cheating and not two people sharing a computer.

Honor Claims / Re: User name and honor name claim

Well you don't need to prove it to me, you need to prove it to the admins here (which I am not).

As for how. A screenshot would usually suffice, but you said you don't have any so I can't think of many things. But the admins will probably have a better idea of what they would require as proof.
