I kinda miss my old ping from the 2.x days. I also find myself missing the old style spawn-then-grab-your-weapon-from-the-armory gamepley which was the standoff mode at the time. Yeah, it could suck when you got n00bs or jackopfhs that didn't know how the hell to share, but it could otherwise be a lot of fun. I also kinda <em>liked</em> spawning in the enemy start, simply because I was a suicidal bastard who always kept a hand grenade ready....I still am given the right circumstances. Hehe...you could always count on me to clear out that sniper room in DM-Prison...
Ah yes, I really would like to see the old 2.x maps ported to 2.8x. Prison, Kaini-SO, Streetfighter, HouseAssault, Les3Vallees, Ghetto, and maybe even POWcamp. Heh. I had a <em>classic</em> moment on POWcamp with the Robar and a searchlight. Poor bastard was running around all over the place not knowing where the hell this light was coming from with .50 BMG rounds kicking up dirt around his heels.
Yeah, those were some pretty fun days, when there were only two servers and everyone already knew who you were when you joined.
