well sometimes boosting is useful to a team that needs to cap in the last few seconds of the game to tie a game to overtime or win it etc so removing it would remove that level of excitement/competitive play, its rare anyone gets boosted wrongly unless there is a troll on the server - who happens to get removed eventually
i tghought you could turn it off by saying !noboost
?
Boost is a nice part of teamplay
Go dm for no Boost if you want to play alone :mj:
Since this got to a discussion anyway and has since a long time cirkeling around.
Exactly, also in control getting boosted away from entering own base with a flag. This happens every time.
Specially when there's a lot of defenders. I think as an option it will be great. Maps like command, control, eternal caves; boosts are never good.
In other maps it only enhances the gameplay.
lmao now i see ahhaa i thought this was about BT
Yes, there are pro's and cons with boosting.
I hate getting boosted on Command when u have the flag and get pushed into the Mountain Dew - that really sucks. Or.. as my signature says... I rather have my teammate covering me than have him trying to boost me - Really annoying - espacially if he misses and the other team manage to kill me. http://www.unrealkillers.com/images/icons/icon8.png
But there are many times/places/maps/situations where boosting is a great thing. You get fast home to your base, get away from tight/open areas where you would be an easy target or you can get a good push to be able to return flag even if it is surrounded by enemies. When boosts is done right its a good thing that enhances gameplay and also players ingenuity. http://www.unrealkillers.com/images/icons/icon14.png
nrgetic/TumTum: i dont agree that Control is a bad map for boosting - if the enemy have your flag you can with a good boost get through middle fast and be able to kill the enemy flagcarrier that often use the big main-pillar as protection.
So even if I hate it when u get bad boosts or get killed, or miss your shot because someone fucks up your shot - I really wouldnt like to be without it. Its a part of a game that can be used for more good than bad :D
