Servers run by trolls.

Browsed through Suidical servers again with decent ping, and played for a bit. Things fell apart on West London on wave ten when a ninja Fleshie one-shotted one of our Supports (without raging, mind you). Next came up Waterworks, and the admin from last time I played shows up. According to him, you must weld doors in order to survive (which I think should tickle Nutter's sensibilities), the LAR is garbage, you should rage FP before he steps on pipe, it's ideal to AA12 spam Scrakes before a Sharpshooter stuns, and that if anyone should so dare as to disagree with the admin's tactics he should be kicked.

Admin (named something-something-Floggin, if anyone wants to know) also found it ironic that the guy who also didn't want the door welded (this is the door at one end of the single-entrance hallway in Waterworks) was killed. So, yeah, I was annoyed again. Don't know why I stayed on the server.

On the bright side, after Waterworks finished, me and the other guy who had disagreed with Floggin stuck around for Departed. And we pretty much beasted it with him as a Support, me as crossbow sharp, and a late joiner as a Demo. No deaths, even with Kevin. Was quite satisfied with that game.

but you nedd 2 weld doas 4 spec weld puntz 2 get hiherr lvl lololol xD !!!1

Last night, ice breaker HoE there are some newbies trying to hold an impossible hallway on round 6 (I joined on round 4 and watched them barely hold). So, I zerkered up top alone, to try and keep as many zeds off them as I could. They all die. I have to deal with **** coming at me from all directions because of how they were playing. I finish the map and am running to the trader to doll out the 2k that I have but don't need when I get kick banned by the admin. WOW!

Totally, and I don't even see the point in kicking the dude that basically saved your game

They kicked him because he didn't play with the team. The zerker ran off on his own. Before someone retorts that I'll usually play where I want to to play because welding is useless, yes, I've gotten kicked for it. It happens.

Kicked because I didn't play and die with the team. Brilliant!

The round before, 5, we all worked together just fine but that round, 6, they all took off to some ****y hole to die. My bad. Next time I will make sure that I die so we can all start over.

I honestly think that it's a valid and respectable zerker playstyle, albeit quite disturbing for people who think the zerk didn't contribute, which is false, since by running alone, he distracts spawning zeds and takes down a bunch, making the holed up team have to kill a lesser amount of zeds in the same time.

So in fact I would have thanked him

I hate it when people in my server **** off on their own, when i play KF, i want to play with friends and play together. Some guy running off and killing all the zeds themselves takes away all the fun too. Why bother playing when one person is kiting taking half the zeds on their own?

Maybe he's ****ing tired of seeing every team he joins get wiped and wants to assure a win ? Well that's how I feel generally *lolpyroxxx1337 has been eaten by the Fleshpound*


EDIT : if you want to play with friends then setup your server and put a password, zerks want to have fun too

 

[Rattler]

Or maybe the team he joins get wiped out because of his running around instead of helping them? Hm?

... medics who pray everyone else dies so they can get a chance to shine.

Could someone explain this? I'm pretty new to the game and have ended up going mostly medic (level 3 in about 9 hours of gameplay) and am not sure why I would ever hope for everyone else to wipe.

Because of their speed, resilience (Medic's armor/self-heal and Berserker's native damage reduction), and in the case of the Berserker, his melee damage, Medic and Berserker are the most capable of completing a wave even if the rest of the team is dead.

Some players hope the team dies so they have a chance to show off their 1337 $k1llz.

Pretty much this, yeah. It's not that medics and berserkers are griefers or assholes, but those types tend to pick medic and zerker if they want to avoid dying and don't care about the team. A real medic can be extremely helpful though so don't worry.

Those players are the douchebags and I dont know why you bother about them..

Well, not necessarily. A Berserker can be extremely helpful in a non-kiting team game if the other teammates know their jobs. A Berserker can be a tank as well as trash collector. He's also good for anti-Scrake business, especially if a handy Commando aggros the Scrake so the Zerker can get a clean, low risk backstab. FPs might be an issue if he can't kite it all over the map, but that's what the Demos and Supports are for.

It's rare that you'll see a Zerker with that much self-control and patience, but they do exist.

TL;DR : Zerks distract specimens for easier disposal
