BF3 - No Explosive Metro Changes


Just wanted to inform everyone of some updates to our no explosives server with removing 2 more weapons as well as changing now people who break the rules are taken care of.

We have added the G3A3 and M26 dart to the list of weapons that are no longer allowed in that server.   This was done due to the fact that there is a glitch with these weapons that causes a mass amount of damage that shouldn't be done with that weapon.   And people were using it to their advantage and being able to basically make an entire server rage.    While we don't want to limit weapons like this, it's currently our only choice until something else is done that takes care of the issue.  

 

Our main goal here is to create servers that are fun for everyone and not just a few people.   So when things like this come up, it's our only option to do such a think like this.    We hope to be able to change it back in the near future.  

 

 

The next change that we have coming to the no explosives server is how those who break the rules are taken care of in terms of being auto killed, etc. .  

 

 

Currently our system works like this:

 

  • 1st offense - Killed
  • 2nd offense - Kicked

That worked fine for a while, but we have no found people who are not even caring that they are kicked for using explosives and come back in and continue doing it.    So we now have it set to do this:

 

  • 1st offense - Kill
  • 2nd offense - Kill
  • 3rd offense - 45 minute Temp Ban

 

This is clearly stated in the rules of the server, and posted throughout during the time you are playing.  The time on the temp ban could change either direction, down or up, depending on how this new change works out.    We added another kill in there for those people who do sometimes accidentally throw that nade will have that extra chance.  But for those who don't follow the rules, they will be given a short timeout.  

 

 

 

Thank you for the support of the =ADK= Gaming Community and we hope that you enjoy these new changes in hopes of creating a better gaming environment for everyone.

are we discouraging the use of them on all servers or just the metro for now?
I like the change. I play no explosives because it has helped me improve immensely. Concentrating on shot placement rather than simply hitting the target. The M26/G3A3 combo only requires you to hit the target.

I also like the change regarding Explosives. Too often someone would "take one for the team" and toss a grenade to gain the upper hand in a strategically advantageous position (can't really fault the strategy). It just kills the competetiveness.

Awesome, I like this much better than the previous list.

We just need to clean up the dart on other guns when we find them!
oh and your welcome
Welcome? To what do I owe you a thank you?
uhhh guys....I hate the be the bearer of bad news but.... Read the last bit of this under "Ranked server administrators"
https://help.ea.com/...t?showhome=true
Yeah I know I mentioned this in Teamspeak but we knew this part about the ToS awhile back but Dice/EA continued to allow Pistols Only and No Explosives to run rampant.

They have more issues right now than to deal with this, and I doubt they will anytime soon.

But regardless thanks for pointing it out :P
Go check the top 50 servers...lol


They clearly don't care about it...and if they try saying something to us about our server ill have a few words for them.
Hopefully they don't care and I really dont see any reason why they should -__-
those are just corporate file safes.
fail safe
Now is this rule for the glitch combination of the 2 weapons for use with the Dart OP glitch? Can the G3A3 be used at all?
If you kill anyone with the G3A3, you will be slayed twice, then temp banned. There is no other way to prevent underbarrel dart exploiters.

as I heard, m26 work on any gun but g3 does more damage not like if I really play with it or tried it, my friend that kind of always use it told me it work but just do less damage.
Yeah, the glitch happens on all guns, but it's most commonly used with the G3A3.
Where is the full set of rules for this server?
G3A3 is good for long range. :D

typing @rules in any of our servers will give you the full rule set for that server.

I found the full set in the BF3 section. Specifically the special room and using the rpg on walls.
