Things that just make you rage

[Acropolips]

What Im going to be adding here are things that people do that are legal in assault cube (I dont ban anyone when they do these things for example) but really make me personally rage. Keep in mind this isnt meant to be offensive, its a thread for laughs and to make you think about your actions (and to realize why sometimes I rage in public and your all like wtf :D) Most of these are in pubs, because any sane pro wouldnt do any of these :D
Feel free to add your own in this thread.

1. The teammate nade spammer. If your playing on CTF Poer, you will absolutely RAGE at anyone who is nade spamming on your team. Lets say your RVSF, go through the left side manage to get the flag and go back through the left side, I GURANTEE there will be one teammate sitting at the nade spawn, SPAMMING AWAY, and he always manages to hit you with the nade.

2. The TKTF selfish loosers. Yes, your playing a nice (hardly) game of TKTF. The enemy has the flag and goes in the middle of the map. You, being the good lil teammate you are, go and kill him so your team can capture the flag. What is the rest of your team doing? Camping at the next flag spawn waiting to just eat the flag, so basically you do all the work AND get no flags.

3. The "I can move where ever I please" teammates. Yes, its everyones problem and it is hard to solve. But really, some teammates can really get onto your nerves when your attacking someon, they come out from behind you, put their back to your crosshair and shoot the enemy. This results in you tking him, and him getting the kill. To top it all off, then they try to vote kick me for tk. Pff.

4. The Spawn Killers. Their goal? Pick up a shotgun, luck their way into the enemy base and kill the enemies WITHOUT GETTING THE GOD D*** FLAG.

5. The Ratio Whore (in a bad way). Yes, you dont have to remind me that I used to be one of them. Basically, they camp on the hp and armour spawns, get no flags, try not to die as much as possible and get kills. While I still try to keep my ratio above 2 at all time, I still always go for the flag, which is the Good Ratio whore :)

6. The Mines Shotgunner. These people making all the clas rage. RVSF shotgunners who just sit at the ladder in the middle of the map, and wait for someone to come up. Yes, I know its easy to kill them with a quick snipe, but the first time they do it in a match is always unexpected and hella annoying.

7. The Door Blockers. They stand in a doorway so that you cannot pass. You have two options, TK (not likey) or go the other way, but if you have the flag, you will most likey die as if it was a race against 5 enemies chasing you and you dont have a roflpwn nade + insta headshot in 2 seconds skills, your toast.

8. The "You just got owned/teabagged/raped spammers". Its funny if you say it once, but when you keep saying it everytime you manage to luckily kill someone, its annoying.

9. The Rage Quitters. I may rage, but I NEVER rage quit, its too dishonourable. You managed to find a good nice little inter with a presumebly good teammate (or bad at which point youd already be raging). They get 0.5 ratio for half the match while whining then rage quit. What they dont get is that if they whined a little less, and played a little more, they would have more success.

10. The Aliased Admins. Yes, I do this too sometimes for laughs. Basically, you alias yourself, go into a pub and just play. Most newer players bash anyone without a tag. Then finally, when there is someone to kick (with a legititmate reason ofcourse :D), you get admin and kick him, at which point everyone will be like "Oh im so Sorry forgive me v33 v33 I love you"

11. The "I dont give a damn about my team" guy. This is what they are thinking "Hey, look theres acro coming with the flag. Heh, I dont feel like defending him I got better things to do like go pick up the armour on the otherside of the map yeh thats a good idea."

12. The HATERS. Kicked from a server for a legititmate reason? Dont come back and start raging at me in public or even worse, post on the forums (I think there is like 3 threads about me since 1.1 came out?)

13. The Mild Laggers. Not enough lag to justifiy a kick, but still there. They lag right by you, steal the flag then lag all the way back to their flag and score. This is why I never play in pohu (no offence to you kiwi :D) because the majority of players are not from Australasia, so everyone has 350+ ping there except for 1 or 2 Aussies (I dont hate you Aussies, remember Im in Aussie too living in Malta :D)

14. The guy that constantly begs you to drop for him. Let me get this one straight. I dont like this fact that EVERYONE expects you to drop for them. What I personally do? I drop for only friends. Not strangers. Why? Because most strangers never drop for me. So get over it. I like how some people (a sexy DES players I know :D) binds their backspace to say I dont need to drop the flag.

15. And finally the Ragers (thats me :D ). They rage at all of the above.

Post your own and remember, this is not trying to be offensive for anyone.

Edit: For Draki Baby, you totally missed the point of half of them, as Im referring to teammates, not enemies who do not help the team. And the thread is purposely for laughs, not whines :D

[Acropolips]

Haha Ive seen that meme :D.

[Luc@s]

16. noob that press F2 to your vote just because they don't like you :D
EDIT : mmh that explains what my votes always fail :D

[ketar]

Happened to me to leave a clan (the other one I was in disbanded).
For months after that, there are players that you don't even know that start asking:"oh u left the clan?" you say "yes" and they tell you "why?". Like if things like that can be explained in two words, while playing. Not that this make me rage, but it is pretty annoying.

Ah. Bullying too. Clan players that tell to others: "I do not even speak with you 'cause you are not in a clan" Smart people.

[Drakas]

1. Use mini-map and watch where you're going
2. You're getting the frags, so you're getting the points :)
3. Aim in the right place
4. Learn to time, and learn to play ;)
5. Take shotgun, /name RATIOKILLER
6. Take shotgun, /name SHOTGUN. And learn to time.
7. Use the mini-map, go to the right place to avoid them.
8. Well, you did get owned, so...
9. Yes, a problem.
10. That made no sense.
11. You were that guy once.
12. Yes, haters, indeed :)
13. What mild laggers, if you never play on pohu?
14. http://hi-skill.us/board/560#c627
15. Whiners :) and I don't hate them, they just make the game less respectable :)

All-in-all,

[JGAN]

*rAgE* clan win.

Ah ha ha I love this thread Acro. Hilarious. A few rebuttals to drakas' points:
1. That's ridiculous. You should never have to be actively checking to make sure your teammates aren't TKing you. That is THEIR job.
7. Door blockers is not the player's problem, it is either poor map design, or else idiocy by whoever is doing it. You wouldn't stand in a doorway and expect people to go around you in real life, so why would you do it when bullets are flying and people are dying?
8. No, he didn't necessarily get owned, he was at 4 HP when some complete n00b who took 15 SMG shots to hit him got the kill. Unless you are Teabagging someone you know as a joke, it is completely rude and disrespectful.
10. Makes perfect sense, and it is annoying. When people have authority over me, in real life or anywhere else, I expect them to have the guts to identify themselves.
11. There's a difference between the newb who is learning to play the game and the solid player who couldn't care less about his team. It's a team game. Some of the best moments in AC happen when teams play extremely well together in pubs (eg. epic flag defenses during TKTF games on shine).

1. Yes, you should. It's part of learning to play. You need to know what is going on and what you think will happen in order to increase your own chances of survival. After all, he's talking about public games ;).
7. Well, if you went the other way, they wouldn't be a problem because there wouldn't be any blocked doors :D. It's all about strategy.
8. So you need to be more aware of the map and who's where so you wouldn't get killed by such a noob so easily ;). And give him a taste of his own medicine: Myke got bagged.
10. He talks about admins and then makes those "v33" guys look bad. Which is it?
11. And there are public games. In pubs, there's no need to rage at someone who doesn't know how to play as a teammate, or someone who doesn't play as a teammate on enemy team. Just eliminate him, make him rage (follow him around, steal his kills :D) :), problem solved :)

Stop whining :)

i rage when people quote big posts

[MykeGregory]

what makes me rage... when i teabag and i get TKed. lol.

but seriously, team killing, when you vote to kick a teamkiller and it fails (even when he has -5 kills) errr...lag spikes, people who go "i had your mom" then your like "dont disrespect people" then their like "i disrespected your mom last night...in the face!" REALLY ANNOYING.

[Mael]

The tipper, the topper, the... double-dipper...

[ElCrema]

The infamous "frozen at the neck curse" while loading a pic of a naked chick with a 14.4K modem
The lack of free porn in the dial up era
The need of 15 floppy disks to install the Secret of Monkey Island
The floppy disk errors
Windows 95

Edit: I forgot to say the one AC related thing that piss me of the most:
- Dudes that connect and start to spam: TheCrema INTER, INTER (or 3V3) /connect myservers.bs 1000 GO NOW!!
If I'm playing a pub game (yes, I do enjoy to play on pubs) don't harass me, I don't play pubs to be invited to private matches, so if I'm there is caus I want to. If you wanna a match go to IRC or sftu!

[Stupefy]

1) Having a nice game, lots of well-known faces around and then some idiot comes in spamming a match server, 80% of the pro people disconnect leaving me there. I play AC because I can come and go as I please, I don't like being forced to stay for a whole game in some stupid inter, stop taking competitive players away from a nice friendly game!

2) The idiot with the shotgun who instantly blows up ANYONE who comes around the corner, friendly or not. This makes playing CTF a very worrying challenge :S

[Orynge]

17. Having 3 guys on your team run around each other and talk about "how fun it is".

[tempest]

18. Dunno how often I said this already: getting TK'd at the beginning of a TOSOK round by some idiot who thinks he has to click to respawn. /bind mouse1 [say "Attention, I'm a noob"], you dumbass.

This should actually go to feature requests - don't enable shooting the sniper in tosok for the first 0,5s of a round. Only very poorly designed maps would require that. Or one can even specifically filter out teamkills in tosok in the first half second or so, so people can have their poorly designed maps ;)

[Carnifex]

I see hypocrites. ;D

[V-Man]

Crema: Do you know the secret of Monkey Island?? IT'S SECRET!

Sarath: You made me laugh out loud, literally.

Acro: Yes, I know I'm #3, but I'm working on it! Promise!
+1 to numbers 1, 7, 9, 11, and 14.

[lordamit]

Today, I was totally pissed off because when I came to ac_desert to play TOSOK and saw that about 5 players from the opponents team were spamming about making love... and well.. partying by jumping in the well.

*looks for a nade*

And when I killed them, they tried to kick me reasoning, "killed.people.while.partying" or something like that >.>

Talk about annoying...

Luckily after 2 or 3 matches, there were enough guys to kick vote them out.

whew!!

+1 to everyone above.

BTW :/ when do I rage?

Imagine this scenario:

HOp Hop... jump jump jump.. oh yeah I am going to score in CTF.
*scores*
HUh? where is the sound of scoring?
*server disconnected: network error*

[Ronald_Reagan]

HOp Hop... jump jump jump.. oh yeah I am going to score in CTF.

What?
No Peanut Butter Jelly Time either :O
Of course, you will never get that thanks to DES|V-Man and the devs.

The closest I get to raging because of the game is when I suck cuz I always get kill stolen (yes, it just so happens just to be luck).

Oh I am not intending to complain. it is just that all this time I was hoping around without realizing that people are saluting me around the corner :P :P
what is a kill stolen?

And btw, I raged today because there was a tker who intentionally kept tking me, and when I charged him, he said causalities may occur :/

So I gibbed him once and said, causalities occur here too :D :D

[Ronald_Reagan]

The complaint was about the animated cross-hair me and V-Man worked on. He just released a safe version that doesn't include a feature due to the devs not allowing downloads of 1.1.0.2, which I have cuz I'm a mac (its true, check out the "Files" page on the AC sourceforge project)
Anyways, Kill stolen is when I get someone's health down to practically zero, and someone takes the last shot, usually ending up on me with no points, and lower health.

So I gibbed him once and said, causalities occur here too :D :D

I like you.

[V-Man]

The full version of the animated crosshair is still available...

[Gibstick]

I am guilty of number 4. I go into the base and it's full of people that are about to shoot at me so I kill them all, but then more respawn and I have to kill those too! Just one more, just one more, just one more....

[Undead]

Edit: I forgot to say the one AC related thing that piss me of the most:

If I'm playing a pub game (yes, I do enjoy to play on pubs) don't harass me, I don't play pubs to be invited to private matches, so if I'm there is caus I want to. If you wanna a match go to IRC or sftu!

its just generally because there is a lack of players that want to play, so they ask you. main problem with small games.

[#M|A#Wolf]

If you enter a pub and ask a person "2v2?2v2?2v2?2v2?2v2? FOLLOW FOLLOW FOLLOW /connect mys.aa.am JOIN NOW" it will be freaking annoying for the victim, lol. Just ask like a normall person in one line without spamming, if they don't answer about repeating yourself 3-4 times they are probably ignoring you so get someone else, if they don't want to then just leave and get someone else, don't stand there and beg :|

[ElCrema]

This whole inter fever is annoying, no player can have a decent pub action, without being harass by some "Inter Freak". Now if I'm playing a fun pub game, why da fak I would wanna leave to play a inter with a bunch of "supposedly" good players, gather by some annoying spammer? NO THANKS!
Again: if you want some private matches, go to IRC, don't spam the pubs!

[Undead]

and thats the thing, there isn't always enough players on IRC.
