  1. How about a class action from the Internet, against spammers
  2. Johnny Blaze is an existing member, with 0 posts, registered with your yahoo email, chambs. And Java... well you're full of crap
  3. Did you try both windowed and fullscreen modes? Changing settings such as the resolution requires access to the registry, perhaps for some reason you can't change it? Are you an administrator of the computer? And what is the "low resolution" you get? You can try taking a screenshot with 'Print screen' and checking the resolution of the screenshot in Continuum\screenshots
  4. Bomb damage isn't random, but it is highly unpredictable. Actually, what's more unpredictable is where the bomb will actually trigger. Where you see the bomb explode on your screen has absolutely nothing to do with where the bomb actually hit your opponent (or if it even hit him). Packet loss was mentioned... I'll add that even if you have 0.0% ploss, you can still have 1 out of 1001 packets that are lost, so some bullets or bombs can very easily be lost in the process. This does not affect most zones much, but it's more apparent in TW because of the one hit kill settings. Also, the whole protocol was developed in the early 90's... It is obvious that recent games have less problems. But we can't do anything to that, really. Even with a brand new client, there would still be some flaws in the protocol. It was made to be efficient with 28.8k modems, so a lot of data was kept client-side, and that's one the reasons why explosions and weapon hits are not monitored by the server.
  5. You're a big boy now
  6. A new pub map is up in 17th Parallel. Thanks to kentbrockman for the modifications. Two duel boxes are also available in this map at the bottom. Unless the bot is not up, they should work.
  7. These kind of "bugs" as you call them happen in every game... but in Trench Wars it's more frustrating because it's one hit kill. You should try other zones that are not one hit kill...
  8. Trying it out... I'd like to see someone else log in to see how it goes... I like the way it shows when your weapons are disabled like just after firing a bomb
  9. A lot of things 'would be better if...' in Continuum... However, we currently don't have any control on the client, as it is closed-source, and the coder (Priitk) is not very active these days. It's nice that you suggest improvements and all, but don't expect improvements anytime soon in the current client... It will be most likely that we start to use a brand new client for the game in the (somewhat near) future. Don't stop suggesting things though, as ideas may be used in these new clients in development. Welcome to the forums, too, by the way... At this rate you'll get more posts than rootbear pretty fast
  10. People are just messing with you and using blue-ish banners ;P
  11. Yeah, this is a known bug... happens to me too. It's not zone-related either.
  12. You can't assign a profile to a zone, but you can assign a zone to a profile Home and End work great for this
  13. They were posted here
  14. I remember those... really nice... Devil's Golf Course... that's not really a golf course, is it? :S
  15. First of all, you should be aware that the Internet is not instantaneous. When you say you hit someone, it actually appears so on your screen, but there is a delay before the bullet you shot gets to the opponent's "screen", and the opponent you see is actually a few pixels away from where he really is because his position didn't reach your "screen" yet. You didn't specify in which zone you were playing.. I assume it's Trench Wars. Maybe you did not notice, but this game has a lot of different zones, each with their own gameplay. I suggest you go try other zones if you don't like TW. As for your first paragraph... this is a team game, when I see a teammate get killed, I'll go after the guy who killed him, simple as that... In TW, you can factor in that people just want to take on a ship weakened by a fight for easy kills, but that's part of the game Just for the record, a Jav bomb explosion in TW does not necessarily take out anything on the other side of the wall... If the ship has full energy, it has a good chance of survival.
  16. I might add that it wasn't a guest... it appears so because the user was banned and deleted. Guests cannot, in fact, send PM's
  17. I wanted to make a New member group without pm/email rights... but it's kind of tricky to get newly registered members to join that group by default, instead of 'members'
  18. Same on Freeallegiance.org
  19. There should be a place where we can submit IP adresses, and get them banned from Internet Or atleast have some of the major routers block them directly
  20. Yeah, that asshole spammed every registered user... He's banned now, of course We can't delete the PM's though, hopefully no one will get infected by some crap by clicking the link...
  21. Wings are a good place to put gun/missile mounts, maybe
  22. Had to say it after being sent to a page that sells Penigra
  23. works for me nice
