    There's a Steam group for pick up games.

    Right. I mean, technically I've been playing very occasionally since at least 2012, but never for very long and never competitively. How long has it been since there was much competitive activity? The competitive section of the forum isn't very active. Seeing as it doesn't look like there's...

    There's a Steam group for pick up games.

    Is that 5v5 Open, no class constraints? Or what. I imagine if it's Open with absolutely no constraints then people would gravitate towards trying to make their team composition hard-counter the enemy's, so there'd have to be some kind of something to keep that from happening. Unless I'm...

    There's a Steam group for pick up games.

    Huh. I'll respect that if it's based on some previous real and sustained efforts at competition, but I'm struggling to picture why 5v5 would be the upper limit, aside from the community size lol.

    There's a Steam group for pick up games.

    This all sounds like not-unreasonable logistics for an actual competitive scene kind of thing, but we've got to start at the start here, with the pick up games. There are hardly any "teams" right now, by which I mean groups which exist for the purpose of competing rather than for the purpose of...

    Minimap Player Arrows are white instead of team-colored

    Actually I changed my mind and just move my installation back onto my laptop SSD rather than the external HD i'd been using. Maybe that will magically solve the combat unplayability too. redoing my config while experimenting made me realize that if I keep the thirdpersontargetdamp and...

    Minimap Player Arrows are white instead of team-colored

    ... actually, now when I play with the JAMP version via Steam, I'll get kicked from servers for not using the launcher. And I can't use the launcher to launch JAMP because my JA install is in a different location than my Steam install. So I guess I'm stuck with the playable combat but mildly...

    Minimap Player Arrows are white instead of team-colored

    Noted, I suspected that but didn't feel like checking. For that matter, last time I played on JAMP, if I was playing Mando with dual pistols, jetpacking, and shooting at a wookie, the map would flicker and I'd do weird lag teleportation that made things unplayable and meaningless. I don't know...

    Minimap Player Arrows are white instead of team-colored

    No idea what's causing it, but I'm pretty sure that in 1.3.2 I had green and red slightly translucent arrows instead of white (bluish?) opaque arrows. Not being able to tell people apart on the minimap is tactically A Bad Thing.

    [Fixed] Crosshair moves when strafing in third person

    Yeah there's a video over in another thread it's uh... it's here.

    V1.4 Update Released!

    OK I probably theorycraft out loud too much, but, what would happen if Posting Rule 1: No Flaming was actually enforced? There's some people who are just transparently aggravating, and firing time-outs at them whenever they post anything with "the intent to anger, intimidate, demoralize...

    There's a Steam group for pick up games.

    Worth noting that my specific interest is not in dueling at all. At all. Not even remotely. I'm entirely interested in teamplay and communication, so pubs don't really work either except for the kinds of teamplay that can be performed without communication. But even those are still improved by...

    1.4 feedback thread?

    Classes appear to be balanced with all other classes at the same time, rather than with all other classes individually. Which is to say, the game does not seem to be unbalanced on a team scale. There does not appear to be a single class with which you can build a perfect team. And that matters...

    Can't activate Mandalorian jetpack mid-roll.

    When I played this game a year or two or three ago, I remember being able to activate jetpack mid-roll with Mandalorian to get a horizontal speed boost. I asked in-game, and people said very confidently that it was still a thing. Despite being able to very consistently activate my jetpack with...

    V1.4 Update Released!

    That's a good word. When I finally get around to starting this cult based around tryharding with what the game is rather than complaining about what the game isn't, I'll probably name it that.

    1.4 feedback thread?

    Eh. I just... disagree. Open isn't a dueling mode. Classes aren't balanced to be evenly matched with every other class. The classes are balanced in context of the existence of every other class that is available to either team. Dekas seem kind of like TF2 sentries, in that they can...

    V1.4 Update Released!

    No see, you can download just the 3mb launcher. That's what I did. The launcher will handle downloading everything else. And yes, you have to put it in an exact place, but that's just how computers are. They're very exact. This is a fan-developed mod for an old game, which means that it puts...

    V1.4 Update Released!

    Downloading a large file and placing it into a folder is a pain in the ass? Alright. There's not really any alternatives or anything the devs can do to make it easier, so I'm not sure I see your point. For what it's worth, you can also download just the launcher and put it into the folder...

    1.4 feedback thread?

    How does flinch help dekas at close range if you can still circle strafe around their low turning speed? I don't think it makes much sense for one of the heaviest weapons in the game to not cause flinch, and I think odds are good that any given plan that includes the step "tank a hit from one of...
