I cant deal with hypocrisy, sorry :?
Exactly cat :) i remember how annoyed i was with boostBRs and shortcuts....... i even made a thread about it saying it was the 'bane of wipeout' :g
learnt the error of my ways in the end, and made sure to apologise to a few Frenchmen i annoyed :+
well, don't hold your breath, no apology is coming from me, I haven't flamed anyone ;) lol
I think you have missed something here.
Studio Liverpool has acted against glitchers and hackers (They have removed their score from the leaderboards.) Studio Liverpool has acted against Jaytech (It is impossible to update Pulse, but the technique no longer works in HD Fury.)
They have also acted against BSB but then people found another trick (Just saying, not trying to open this can of worms again.)
Studio Liverpool has made decisions to protect their game given the apparent limited resources they were given, and we have seen the results.
To deny that like you have done is to me a pure lack of respect unfortunately. Because they did act, you do not see it though.
They could act MORE, yes, I infinitely agree with that point (By the way guys I found others, I'm not telling), but they have done things.
i know, you have nothing to apologise for my friend, except maybe trying to ruin a load of players fun on a game that theyve paid good money for, and trying to blame them for a problem that was caused long before :)
Heh yeah I remember that Haydn...sparked a few debates that did ;) But it's important that you had the understanding to just let it go and get on and have fun with it in the end :)
Im not going to fuel this debate anymore, it's futile..so goodnight all! ;)
For the record Haydn, I didn't actually blame anyone ;) If it seems that I'm attempting to ruin their fun then I truly am sorry. For that I will apologise, that was never my intetion.
My intention was to have the rules revised to allow for 6 laps on GREEN races, instead of the 5 in the interest of the leaderboards, is all... Now, if you love the GREEN races so much - the extra lap should be a bonus for you guys, I don't see me attempting to ruin anyones fun, rather offer you a solution which provides you with an extra lap of even more GREEN fun ;)
EDIT: Night Cat, regards to the AnE :) I'm calling it a night too man - its facking late :lol
ahh, okay good point, didnt mean to tarnish you there mate.
but really, does it actually matter? :) the leaderboard is dead, battered, broken and bruised anyway :beer
Okay I'm gonna pretend I'm on a side now (Where in truth I don't really care what happens like I said)
What if some green (let's use it as a verb) to get records? Six laps isn't a solution for them, it's rather used to push them on the side. I already questioned that but it was a very small sentence.
But really, what if someone greens to get records? What if that's what's fun for them? What do you propose then? Six laps puts them out of record range automatically, so that isn't the solution.
Keep in mind there are alternatives, like entering a race filled with lesser skilled players, having a player idle on the starting grid, and even having multiple accounts can help (No suspicion that Mr.X is a great player, so he gets a free pass to first place.)
I've never taken the multiplayer times as anything other than a curiosity, if indeed that, they have always been the most irrelevant of all the records except maybe single race.
Why are they irrelevant?
Because there is no constant to compare against apart from the length of the track, no two races are ever the same, be they raced with weapon used or as a Green league type race.
The very fact that times have always be open to manipulation from the very beginning by having a 2nd player stay rooted to the start/finish line, while another races around the track to get a fast time, makes a mockery of any credence given to gotten times.
And to add to that the total ad-hoc dispersion of the amount of turbos by the game itself in any one race.
Either you come 1st 2nd or 3rd in a particular race.
The race time for that race has absolutely no bearing on any other race that has been, or is ever going to be raced.
The only thing multiplayer times show is how lucky you have been.:D
