You had player loads of them. But selfish ass holes hiding on the easy side/joining the winning team/ point grabbers. You know them all. Most of then lived for AA 2.5 and cant give it up. There still here and still ripping it up with noobs who want take that shit for long so they leave and they dont recommend it as a good game. The game is ruined by selfish players who need to win at any cost. They have no real honour. yada yada you all know what I am saying and have been saying for years. I banned 3000 of these ass holes from my server.
So fun the old days
Well sadly you're absolutely right on this in my opinion. I used to be a defence whore too, mainly because I was a fragwhore at some point, but now things have changed and, believe it or not, I always try to play assault when possible.
Like I said in another topic, I took a few months break, and when I come back I still see the same people systematically joining defence and playing as if it was a real life war. It's very boring, especially on the defence-sided maps like Bridge, Pipe, or Weapons Cache.
It's boring because it makes you play against the same people all the time (with always the same tactics) and it's annoying for new players who join Assault and play against players with 2+ fragrate and 2000+ hours. I totally understand these new players get bored after hours of gameplay and no kills at all.
Few weeks ago there aws a lot of talk about a automatic team switcher, but I'm not sure if it's live or not.
