You love to see it. (3606)

Yeah but a surprise (3607)

warz players killed brawl ill stand by this view

Eh, they were one of the server's most dedicated playerbases, so idk. I just think that most people didn't like the gamemodes enough to stick around. That, and a lot of them were tough to break into. There was no skill-based matchmaking in any of the gamemodes, so if you were new, chances were you just joined and died until you left.
(3609)

Unfortunately that's very true, the skill gap for stuff like wild West, warz, tracking in raid, and ctf mechanics made it rough. Only not full on skill based would be party but even then so, you kinda needed some for certain games. (3610)

Hence why Party did as well/lasted as long as it did. Even today, there are super popular Squid-game-esque games on Steam, and they have some of the same minigames as Party did all those years ago. (3611)

Sad that soup pvp was outdated also (3612)

Something underappreciated about legacy War, I think, was that it was basically impossible to cheat effectively at it. At the end of the day, you still had to lead your shots. Tracers didn't matter because of visible nametags, macroing didn't matter since combos weren't a big part of the game, etc. Everywhere else it was hard to keep up with the constant hacking, WarZ and Kitbrawl for example. (3613)

warz had a hacks problem because the mods intentionally refused to ban cheaters even after they were caught with hacked clients

Oh? I wasn't aware, though I could believe it. Anyone in particular you have in mind? (3615)

Plenty of people in mind, and I'd say unfortunately some staff probably cheated too under the radar (3616)

I can honestly say that, to this day, I've never used a hacked client. (3617)

got invited to a private disc server like 5 years ago with a bunch of current warz mods and smods talking with players that were banned for cheating, ddosing etc

a lot of stuff started making perfect sense when i found out about it

brawl staff post like 2015 were corrupt as **** lol

Wow, that's crazy. (3620)

That doesn't surprise me one bit since I talked to some people and found out how they covered each other (3621)

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Maybe it was different in most of my circles within the staff. Something tells me none of these old war mods and party mods were hacking much. :v (3622)

Well we all know one former party staff member that was cheating (surprisingly) but as for war I don't know. (3623)

Who was it again? That sounds familiar. (3624)

Purest and I believe he reapplied to the staff team admitting to it also somewhere (3625)

That's a throwback. He played Wild West a bunch too iirc. (3626)

I forgot he played that too (3627)

So was he hacking on Party or Wild West? Because there was a lot of incentive to use X-Ray on the latter. (3628)

https://www.mcbrawl.com/threads/72590/#post-926496 I found the thread but it doesn't really say (3629)

Just checked how old some of the threads I'm still active on are, and that led me to check this post-chain too. This is over a decade old at this point. That's truly insane. (3630)

I agree it's crazy! I feel old now with this :( (3631)

I wonder how many alerts @iMacro is going to come back to, assuming he will come back and check again. He was last seen November 28, 2023. So how many times have we posted here since then? (3632)

Oh lord, probably a couple hundred if anything (3633)

Yikes, I just checked and this was dead for almost all of 2024. His post was 3560. That means that it hasn't even been 100 posts. We clearly need to up our game if it's been almost two whole years and we haven't posted here a hundred times since then. (3634)

Oh wow, but that does make sense (3635)

You've played the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games before, right? (3636)

i used to think pmd stood for pre menstrual disorder or something

Yes I did a long time ago now, also I'm so disappointed with some of the new mega pokemon (3638)

They don't bother me. (3639)

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.

Haven't gotten around to playing Legends ZA yet, so I don't know what all of the new megas look like. On the topic of PMD though, I've recently gotten into a game called One Way Heroics. It doesn't have any sort of grand storyline like the PMD games did, but the core of how you fight and move in it is pretty similar, and I've been having some fun playing it. Takes me back a bit. (3641)

I finished Legends Z-A, and honestly, it's the first Pokemon game to make me feel a little sad. (3642)

How so? Good story? Bad game? (3643)

Good game. Good story. It's just what happens during it. (3643)

I guess I'm gonna have to get pokemon ZA dang it, been playing some nostalgic games lately with Left 4 dead 2 and Halo (3644)

Don't play the Switch 1 version. I'm pretty sure that one has problems with bugs, lag, and poorer graphics.

i have the switch 3

I'll have to check it out then, Gehenna. (3648)

Unfortunately I'll be waiting for my family to mail my switch to me (3649)

I'm still just hoping that someone finds an exploit for the console so we can get the Switch 2 modding/emulation scene off the ground. (3650)

Oh I'm sure that will happen in good time! I've been struggling to find a rom hack that works for 007 Night fire on my laptop (3651)

Dude, that game was so good. My dad used to play that with me when I was a kid. That was the only time I was good with a controller at a gun game.
(3652)

I talked to my brother about it and he instantly wants to get it to work too, it was just an amazing game! (3653)

Me and my dad or brother would try to snipe each other across the map with remote-controlled missile launchers in the snowy maps. If you controlled them well enough, you could make it just about anywhere inside the buildings. No where was safe, lol. (3654)

That was one of the funniest moments for us too, just guiding the rockets everywhere. Also driving those little rx cars and exploding or the helicopters (3655)
