Unfair!

[Lycosa]

I'm so annoyed by the versus mode sometimes...

Team A as infected gets one tank after the survivors got advanced weapons. When team B are playing infected, they are getting one tank before the survivors got advanced weapons, and another one later... Why is this?

So Team A's tank will do a little damage, but the survivors will go on.
Team B's first tank will do much more damage than team A's, because the survivors can't kill him quickly enough with their small guns and team B's second tank will then totaly devastate team A.

That happens so often, it's really frustrating and annoying.

Director moves in mysterious ways.

[Chucka]

Blame the Director. Hes the one who decides where to put advanced weapons.

[vidals]

let me tell you whats unfair that i suposed to get l4d tonight (cuse i am from mexico) saw i call bluckbuster in the morning to confirmes that l4d arrive today and what did they tell me tha on monday is going to arrive so com on i being wating for this games about 2 years i am bored of playing the demo so thats fucking unfair

[Lycosa]

It's not about the spawn location of advanced weapons, it's about the time when the tank spawns and how many are available for one team!
It should be absolutely fair!

@Funky Biscuits: When enough people have that opinion, Valve will hopefully change the balance.

@vidals: I really feel with you...

[Funky Biscuits]

Valve cannot possibly change the ways of life!
I would much rather have the game be unfair in MY favor every now and then!

[Faulty]

The most ridiculous thing I've ever seen was when a Tank spawned before the Survivors even left the safe room.

[Chucka]

Left 4 Dead is never fair and it doesn't have to be.

[Lycosa]

I prefer a fair game, where both teams have a real chance to win, not such randomness.

They can simply add a few things to the director:

- Spawn an equal amount of tanks for both teams in each level
- When the first team had to fight a tank before they got advanced weapons, the other team should also have to do so.

@Chucka: Doesn't have to be? You're kidding.

[Funky Biscuits]

Shit Happens

[Chucka]

If you want the game to be fair you can remove the whole Director from the game.

[Lycosa]

The level doesn't have to be absolutely identical for both teams, but the spawn time of tanks and how many tanks spawn should be the same. That's all they should change.

[Funky Biscuits]

If you knew when the tanks where coming it would ruin the suspense
But tank numbers is something we can ALL agree on

[mshield]

If you want the game to be fair you can remove the whole Director from the game.


Now that would make for a tense game!

Just be glad it doesn't spawn Chuck Norris. It once spawned one right outside the safehouse, killed us all to death in under 1.24 miliseconds.

And we weren't even in THE SAME GAME.

[Lycosa]

Okay, the spawn time of course doesn't have to be exactly the same, but both teams should have the same weapon level (basic/advanced) when the tank attacks.

@mshield: And the server you played on survived? Wow, then Chuck had a good day.

[Chucka]

The level doesn't have to be absolutely identical for both teams, but the spawn time of tanks and how many tanks spawn should be the same. That's all they should change.

It would get boring because you allways know when someone is going to be Tank etc. Nothing should be changed.

[Lycosa]

@Chucka: You prefer absolutely unfair games, based on randomness. Great.

I don't.

[mshield]

@mshield: And the server you played on survived? Wow, then Chuck had a good day.

Every day is Chuck Norris' good day.

[Chucka]

@Lycosa LOL! You think Left 4 dead is absolutely unfair game?

I don't.

[Lycosa]

The versus mode is unfair, that's a fact, not just my opinion.

[Chucka]

What online game is completely fair? Because other team could lose the game if the server lags or something?

[mazouth]

Versus mode is so unfair when you fall on a team that play for the first time !

Gaaassp !

Hence why people play games instead of life.

[Lycosa]

@Chucka: No game is completely fair, but the developers should try their best.

[Funky Biscuits]

I don't.
Try Poker

[Chucka]

Hence why people play games instead of life
Cuz its freaking fun!

[Chucka]

@Lycosa: ValvE/Turtle Rock Studios tried their best and made awesome job!

[Asura]

You must head north, and fallow the great white sheep.

[Chucka]

What?

[Lycosa]

L4D is great, of course, but I can't stand pure luck that takes away any skill in games. Valve already did the same in Team Fortress 2.

This board is crowded with spammers...

[Asura]

What?

Only then the you can accept the fate, what director has gave you

[Funky Biscuits]

I hate these whining threads

[Asura]

I hate these whining threads

Fallow the great white sheep

[Chucka]

OMG! Are you like a Prophet of The Director?

[Lycosa]

@Funky Biscuits: Then don't read or post in them.

@Asura: Much to learn you still have.

[mshield]

You must head north, and fallow the great white sheep.


There you will learn the way of Chuck Norris.

Actually, no one can possibly learn such a way.

NO ONE MUST HAVE SUCH POWER

Baa!

[Funky Biscuits]

Ironically I only whine about people whining and I only whine in the threads of people whining about them whining.

[Lycosa]

*Whine*.

This thread is leading nowhere.

[Chucka]

Accept the fate of the Director. Hes not just in l4d. Hes everywhere...

[Sikkyu]

i find it frustrating when one team gets a tank and the other does not. I call bs on that. I don't care when it spawns but it should be 1 to 1.

[Chucka]

It depends how well the team is playing.

[Asura]

Accept the fate of the Director. Hes not just in l4d. Hes everywhere...

Yes he is, he is waching.... right now. Thank him for your great game and he shall give you price.

remember the great white sheep

[binge]

Lycosa,why don't you make a thread when you get to be the 2nd tank & completely destroy team B

Ffs,people only whine & cry about it,if they lose

If they win because of the 'unfairness' they'll just call the other ones whiners

Grow some balls,every game has something that's not 'fun', if you would have friends you would have laughed about the freakin tanks

That means you take to fucking long

[Shadowfox952]

It seems too inconsistent for that to be possible. We were raping the other team, they were all in the yellow/red with no health packs. About 150ft from the safe room, we got a tank, even though we didn't even need it which sealed our victory since they were moving at a snail's pace.

The next round, they got a tank about mid-way instead of near the end, and we were able to kill it because we weren't bleeding out like they were before, and proceeded to get to the safe room with ease.

Oh AIDs, how you torture the noobs.

[Lycosa]

@binge: I don't think this has anything to do with any friends I have or don't have.
And I don't call the other team whiners when my team has two tanks and kills them, I completely understand them when they think it's annoying.

@Chucka: Shadowfox is right, it's completely random. And that's what is so frustrating.

It's amazing how many spammers and flamers there are on this board.
