No only the competitve scene is. You wonder why?
Some people are just too retarded. First of all why would you skillfake? We're playing we 2 players that just installed ET for the first time. We're trying to get a decent war, around low/+ since we wanted to show them the game. The problem is that when we finally we found a game they were clearly skillfaking. Our mates couldn't do shit because they got killed all the time while we pretty much played 3vs5(it was a 5vs5).
And instead of helping them, the opponents are making fun of them. "Dude you suck quit this game", "Do you even have a mouse" or "You shouldn't be allowed to play this game". After the game they didn't want to play anymore and went back to LoL. They said they liked the game but wouldn't play it as long as they pretty much can't get out of the spawn and people are whining/laughing 24/7 at them.
Is that how you try to increase the activity in this game?

Maybe go pub and prac ;s
Besides some opponents are kinda nice to talk with
you can't fix skillfaking, you can just hope for the best i guess...
LOTS OF PUBING IS INVOLVED TO LEARN THE BASICS OF THIS GAME
i tried convincing some guys i knew to play back when i was in school (4 years ago).
haha didn't know that about fumble. When I played with him some years ago he was pretty decent and a really nice guy :P
They just have to accept that they are basically throwing themselves to the lions if they don't want to learn the game on publics.
also gl and hf with this game
it makes no sense but idk
the community is yet not,there are just computer thugs,haters and trollers all around,but that's tbh quite funny sometimes.
Let it die,stop mention that,newcomers will not come,people will keep on leaving because no one is getting younger,just enjoy of what is left of it.
Cheers..
e: My touchpad hero z3R0 would beat the shit outta your rude, faker oppo's
Also I think it's easier to go from ET to cod4 than from cod4 to ET imo. A guy I knew irl said that I should play with him and his team. Alright I did and had no problems playing against low+ or even med in cod4. Then we got bored of cod4 and I told him to play ET with me. He agreed and we started playing. The problem was that he sucked really hard(we only played public at that time) because he didn't know how to do anything at all. You actually had to move while shooting and so on which was impossible for him.
gl nice to see you bringing new players
its loads of fun laughing at each other and shit
But when we were on the same ts and he found im from czech, he started to call me pepiczek (obviously) and was really nice to me and we talked about poland/czech etc.. Like normal people do..
Dont know why are polaks so retarded on internet, was in Wroclaw twice and the people there were outstanding, so friendly..
PS: i remember we played one game 3months ago with my 2 friends and we searched med- and some guys contacted us so we went to play and they were new and really bad.. We said like we dont have to play against you, we dont need to grow our ego.. Gave them a few advices and then they said to us, that we are actually first guys, that were nice to them..
+ they know, that the best way would be to go to pub, but they cant, because its forced and they dont want to play retarded jaymod where it is 24vs24....
I can tell you a funny story. I was shopping some time ago and I was waiting to pay for my stuff. There was two guys infront of me who was laughing at the shop assistant(she was a bit young than me, probably around 15-16) because she had some problems with a price or something like that. The funny thing was that they were making fun of her in polish and laughing. I was so ashamed because everyone else in the store was looking at them. No one said anything tho. When they had to pay they didn't even try to talk english with the girl and were looking at eachother(didn't even look at her once I think) and saying that she was a "pierdolona suka" while laughing. But she was calm and told them how much they had to pay, she kinda ignored them. They paid for their stuff and left the store. When it was my turn to pay I told her that she did a good job ignoring them. She smiled and said "thanks" and told me that she's used to that when drunk people wants to buy something. I paid for my stuff, wished her a good weekend/day and left.
True story btw.
and yes polish people are the most retarded indeed.
They have never heard of it or read about it on the internet, so they just get this look as if it's the most insignificant thing in the world (kinda like if you tell your buddies if you are a linuxnerd "Don't install Windows, go for Linux"), then proceed to persuade me to stop being a faggot hipster and start LoL (and CS/Battlefield before that).
So my conclusion is that it was very badly marketed to the more mainstream population of gamers. Personally, I came across it totally on accident on one of those PC game magazines' CD's when they were popular.
Lately people didn't want to start playing it just because it has very old graphics, and they have alternatives such as Call of Duty etc.
Several etpro players here, always crowded, no bots, etc.
/ad off
What on bloody earth were u thinking of bringing them directly to etpro wars and thought that there will be anything else but massive buttrape thro entire game??...
This isnt CS or some bs game where u dont need any aim at all, if u are bringing a new ppl to game, put them on jaymod pubs first of all, etpro is not the place to start at beginning, never was, never will.
Noone from newcomers will do any good in etpro war at first time, specially playing 5on5, knowing even ppl who are playing for years this game, have sometimes problems to get the basics of game... Try again with them and go with them on some jaymod pub server, with around 20-30 ppl max, so it wont be to messy and let them try the game this way, otherwise u and them are wasting time.
We just played against low and yeah their damage wasn't really good and so on but they could kill people and even do the objectives. They did a good job and without them we probably wouldn't win. The game isn't that hard to learn when you have a team telling you what you have to do. We basically did all the work for them; they probably know more now than they would by playing publics. We did a 3vs3 against eachother where they probably learned a lot.
Maybe they will suck in etpro wars and so on but it will still increase the activity. We probably even got a third guy joining us soon. As long as we play against low or even low+ we can play with them and have a decent match. As I said we just want to play together since we have a lot of fun(we don't like publics since they're boring in our opinion). We don't care that much if we lose but we can't stand playing against skillfakers.
As for starting, i don't really find it appropriate to put them straight on at wars, at least give them some basics of game, so they can feel it up, get the sense of game, maps, movement, shooting and so on, as finding real real low war today, is quite hard, as there will be at least one guy per team ,who will be doing a lot more damage than a normal low would do. Bring them to some jaymod pub, get on teamspeak and test it out, u will see, they will like it.
everything is ruined!
