Caves Empty - Page 2

The only people I've seen in the cave (besides squadmates) was the Prowler crew that was running everyone over when they materialized in the WG (I'm not bashing the Prowler crew, it was a great tactic).

They've already said it was an accident and as soon as there offices aren't about to burn down, i'm sure they'll fix it.

On the Emerald server VS, where I see the least peeps and the fewest LFS broadcasts, was all before CC was even out. The Hart thing only happened after CC. I don't know maybe I was just on at the wrong times everyday of every week and all day on the weekends. I have been on PS for a pretty long while and I remimber the older times when the servers where pretty full. You just don't see any of that anymore.

Last night on Emerald, we VS and the TR had a pretty decent sized cave battle under Ceryshen (about 40 v 40). It ended being a great battle. If you even do get into a battle in the caves it is amazing. The multiple levels and the ziplines make for great offensive and defensive positioning. I do however hate trying to walk around the caves without a vehicle. The ziplines need to be on the proximity map so I know which ones to take to go in the correct direction.

The zips are not on the proxy map, but incase you didn't know they can be on the overhead map. It's in the toggles thing like the SOI for bases and you can also pick to have the map show just ground or ceiling buildings. I didn't know that for a little while. Stumbled across it.

Yea, I see them on the overhead map. But I hat having to hit 'm' everytime I wanna see where a zipline ends up. Maybe its just me.

If the zips were on the proxy map it would get too cluttered. However if one could target the begining of the zip line and it caused that specific line to show up on ones proxy map that would rock.

im NC markov too.. I got CC yesterday and so far the most ppl ive seen in the caves is like 6

There also isnt really a huge need to go into the caverns right now because for the most part MAX modules are on the surface, I've seen a shitload of AT vehicles and weapons in use, but low population in the caverns because there is no current need to go down there.

I think its about time to merg servers and if have to, increase the server population because these caverns spread us too thin.

arctik · 2003-10-30, 07:51 PM

Take the current populations and spread it out over an even bigger area. THats the only thing I don't really like about having caves.

FireWolf22 · 2003-10-31, 11:09 AM

Have to agree with Hamma. I haven't been in the caves since the first day I had CC. My Girl went down there the other to the Volcano Cave, I think it is linked to searhus, She ran around for over 45 min and seen one person. I haven't been down there because I don't have a need to, the mods are up on the surface. There is never any fighting on the surface where caves are open so there isn't really any need to be at a cave when it is open.

Quick question for you beta's, if you can answer it. Since I didn't get my e-mail and didn't find out until the day beta closed. Did they play test the real game, not just the caves? If so that would explain why everyone was so happy about it on the beta and now it is starting to suck ass.

They tested both, problem was IMO there were not enough people.

FireWolf22 · 2003-11-03, 03:02 PM

If I would have gotten my e-mail about it I would have been there. I didn't know I had beta until I was all over. I read the post about it the monday it released and I copied everything over in hopes i would get to try things out for like the last second and blam I get the message the CC beta is now closed, plz purchase your copy at stores near you soon. I was like what the shit. Oh well.
