Connection Reset...game over.

[Doom]

Well, I've been hit with what apparently is a fatal bug. Was playing most of today, but now, can't log in, get the 'connection reset' message and rebooting/recycling the router does nothing

As near as I can tell from the forums, this is pretty much a breaker, no solution so far.

Darn. Anyone hear different?

[Soul]

Odd, haven't heard of that before... that sucks doom

[Doom]

Big time...found a workaround, just gotta download some extra software, set up a proxy server, do some encoding, and zippidy dee, I'm set.

Sh'ya right...hope they fix it soon for the not-so-technical types can play again. Yuck.

I just have to find my account profile each time i start @#$^(^#$

[Doom]

Well, I'm back...played a long day with Massault, totally rockin'. The bug has something to do with their authentication server. Sure hope it stays fixed.

I'm thinking Engineers are just a bit TOO good. Between the turrets (a little dominating), vehicles (which engies repair), mines, nades, and grenade launcher, Engineers are like a total package. Other classes aren't write-offs, mind you, but manoman do engineers do all the things I like to do.

I note the top players (of thousands) are Engineers as favorite class, and flying things as favorite vehicles, with a few exceptions. I still haven't decided if the flyers are broken, or just too good on pub servers (the only thing with a chance to stop a smart playing flying one is a rocket-launcher soldier, and the launcher is just an eense too ungainly in combat).

My $1 (inflation is a beast!)

I like playing Medic, I like strogg medic for the spawn hosts... I wish more people would take advantage of them.

Also, it bugs me so many people tag out when a medic is so close... oh well.

I tag out just before the time hits, so I dont miss a respawn. I have had medics run by me and not revive so many times its not funny. I use the spawn host, but I dont think most folk know what to do with them. As for the engineers I have to agree they can do a lot, unless there is a good sniper around. Every class has some benefits. A good field ops dropping art on their spawn will make a whole team come after you I go 45 kills one game dropping arty on their spawn and pissed off their whole team. Got three kick votes that game Love it when you really piss them off

I hate how medics don't toss heal packs after a review...what's the deal? I'm obviously wounded, why not do a bit of healing?

No need to wait until the last second, tag out immediately if killed (otherwise you risk getting a 30 second respawn). If a medic does come up to you, just tag back in.

Then, when I'm a medic on strogg, I literally have to CHASE critically wounded peeps down and STUFF the frickin' stroyent in them. The red tubes look like little bombs, so everyone runs around them. Most annoying. There needs to be a "Remote Rectal Insert" award for strogg medics, much like constructors get for repairing turrets.

LOL, thats why I avoid playing medic. No one covers you while you revive, no one uses you health pack, unless you chase them down.
