Ok, so lately when I've been playing on the WC3 server, for about 3-4 weeks, there's this queer glitch happning. It's not just me, samid said it happened to him as well. What happens is, when you die, you get transferred onto the other team. Except you keep spawning dead! What the hell is that?!? First time it happened, it said
PTB: Transferring Amphibious One to the CT's
Then the next round, I was STILL a terrorist, but spawned dead!
Does anyone know or have heard anything else about it?
thats been happenin for ages.
that happened to me over 2 months ago.
its like worldspawning i think. normally happens on cobble and dust i think
but like happens very rarely for me. its so annoying though cause u have to rejoin server cause u wait a round and ur still dead and not playing :D
once it happened to me twice in a row.
its so annoying it says "cant change to t's - team full or ptb wont let u" and it wont let u join "ct's cause its full or u cant join same team or ptb wont let u"
:roll:
happened to me a couple of times. you stay dead and have to reconnect to the server.
What i think it is (and this may be wrong), is that there are only a limited number of spawn points on any given map.
When the amount of players exceeds the amount of spawn points, one person dies without spawning, and due to the way that this is set up, stays dead (the command to re-spawn isn't run on their client), simple fix (usually) is simply re-connect, nothing else you can do about it.
So, you'll only ever notice this happening on certain maps (those with few spawn points), and only when the server is really full.
happy to be corrected,
-D.
@gent, you said dust and cbble - well, it's happened on Prodigy and Italy as well for me.
Remy, this has not happened to me on any other server :shock: I figured it just had something to do with this server in particular.
well the other servers you play on, do they have ptb on??
I wouldn't play on them if I did :lol: But no, this is the only server with PTB. That's why I am reckoning it's PTB
troy..... what gliche? and someone said before that it might be the amount of spwan area of a map. well it cant be that cause in maps like dust or dust2 or cooble the maxium spawn in those maps are the MAX players on cs which is 32 people. maps liek awp and bloodstrike are only 20 player spawns ... but even if it ended up with not enough spawn points then u would spwan but ontop of another player which u end up dead....
What's that you say? You're Knight's retarted brother? I'm starting to think Knight can type fluently well. Where's Jay and his spellcheck. You should also assume that noone knows who Troy is, and address him, neigh, ME by my screename which people know me by.
More to the topic, yes, I think it has something to do with PTB, because like Nemesis said:
Quote from Nemesis-World:
even if ithe map ended up with not enough spawn points then u would spawn but on top of another player which mean you would die
-Yes, I fixed his spelling.
Which brings me to a furthur question, will GU 1.6 be running PTB. A while back, within a month of installation, I didn't like it. Only the other day, I realized, that when the teams are uneven, most people will make NO effort to change. On the other hand, most of the leet people are more than happy to change. I think with the more balancing in 1.6, the CT's have much of a chance, and so maybe we don't need it anymore.
i reckon PTB is a good thing. just when teams are uneven and ur getting slaughtered it'll take out a good player on the otherside for ur team. i reckon it's a good balance. but it can get annoying when u can't join a certain team..... by the way whats PTB stand for anywayz?
and Amphibious one *(^&*^**!@ u know i can't be stuffed to type fluently not that i CAN"T write well...jeeze
but sumtime u cant join becuase the situation is like this:
CTs - 7 players - won last 4 rounds in a row
Ts - 10 players - obviously lost last 4 rounds
PTB says CTs are to strong - so u cant join them
CS says Ts have to many players - so u cant join them
thats the situation i get anyway, i dont get this spawning dead stuff, just joining sumtimes and not bein able to pick a team. i think PTB just needs a bit of tweaking, it is handy to have, aside from the auto assign at the start of a round about half the time, that just pisses me off.
Its just a gay problem with PTB - its been around for ages and still happens yes.
Lol yeh i get that allot but i think it's cause i get heaps o lag from my 56k :lol:
You cry to much amph.......bloody stats whore HAHAHA :twisted:

actually amph, its not the ONLY server with PTB, oh you don't know
'sigh' -.- but its only happen to me once.
Nemesis, I think you hang around Meagan too much - not that she's not a lovely girl... but typing wise :P
Quote from Nemisis-World:
anywayz
That's just not even cool.
On topic, I thought PTB overwrote Counter-Strike's team options. I think you just have
mp_autobalance 0
Or whatever that command is off, that way, you can have 10v1 (without PTB either). Yes yes, it's still a good mod and all, I was in a 1v4 the other day, which is a lot better then what would've been a 2v3, where my team mate wouldn't have been doing much...
I love PBT for the WTJ (Winning Team Join I think) just seeing people ask what happens when they get to their 5th warning, then getting to it *kick*.
Makes me feel all warm inside :twisted:
hehe i like it that the fact, i hate people team stacking and joining
the winning team, i get so mad when they do, i usually laugh at them
heh but when ptb came, hated it a first but when people started trying to stacking
i liked it.
Hey samid did it feel fuzzy inside as well?
Um....are you implyng something :oops:
Let's just say "warm and fuzzy" and skip the inside bit.
Everything has a bit of a glitch, but PBT has enough of a good influence on the game to out way them. More on the glitch, was in server just now when one of the teams had 11 people in so can you explain that Shithouse?
First of all, the plugin is called PTB!! Not PBT - who gave you that idea?!?
Second, Shithouse, is there anything else we can refer to you as? I can't really be bothered typing up "Playing Sh!thouse" in the game, and anything else... besides - shithouse gets censored!
um
playing is fine, u could call me sam (being my name and all). ive gone though many name changes in the last couple of years (azk12000, GsVi-Monkey, m0nk3y is what i was on the sabaki LT XP, deus ignis) but i find this amusing for when im actually on top of the team.

thats the way i saw it REmy, as you seem to die above a teammate ( usually the same one), but its happening on a lot of maps train, italy dust 1 + 2 etc, happens to me usually every night . after the first worldspawn , i got to console and type retry , seems not to bother me again.
Limited spawn points is the worldspawn thingy. World spawn also happens when you stick your self into a small gap for some reason (like on the t's side of the bridge in aztec).
This other thing that is not called PBT seems to be happening more and more often lately. Recently, I just waited it out and finally spawned about 9 rounds after I had died.

just try changing teams if you can, i saw you last night always dead, so i changed to other team adn you where ok next round, coincedence maybee, but at least i was thinking i was helpful :D
and thats all that counts
samid - say it with me "P - T - B"
P - B - T.....that's right isnt it?
