For all of you who compete in TWL and CAL, what exactly does the Pam4 mod change?

I played with it a little today, and I noticed there were no GLs, and the only 1st tier perk was Bandolier.  Was I playing with the wrong Pam4?  Because a clanmate says that everything is the same.

Looked around on the internet for a definitive list of changes, couldn't find it.

If anyone can tell me what's changed, that'd be great.  If you have a definitive list, that's even better.

Thanks!

Oh.  Seriously?

Then what are the official TWL rules?

As if I didn't go there already.  I meant what perks they disable, allowed weapons, etc.

I can not believe that CAL would use this mod. TWL, maybe. If CAL, that's bullshit.

They take away a weapon, a lot of perks and vehicles (rumor?) because a bunch of fucking scrubs whine their heads off.

Now it really a souped-up CS.

I've been more-or-less casually gaming for the past few months and considered starting competitive play with CoD4. Fuck that if they're taking away the things that make this game different from every other generic shooter.

there are a couple of perks and guns that are far too noobish to be used in competition

although they could let it sit in there and any team that uses the noobish weapons/perks would simply be forced out because of hostility from the community

Etc etc...

Basically all the mod does is force you to select your guns/perks at the beginning of the round. And of course, the guns/attachments/perks are all limited to the ruleset. You can easily change what ruleset you use with rcon commands.

I haven't played with Pam4 yet, but I've played with DAMN mod, and with that you have to hit ready at the beginning of the round. Pam4 probably does that too.

After playing scrims with HC and everything goes, it's much more fun to play with limited things.

So basically its a tool for ppl that cant do config files? Coz my clan set up a pistol server with one class with set perks, just using config files.

Join a dl clan, atm its good old fashioned CoD4. Only a few rules, like 1 sniper per team and 2 noobtubes per team.

correction, getting killed by those perks is far too noobish.

Yeah, the Pam4 mod can also be used for pub.

Err, no... It is a mod that is used for consistency in matches, as well as easy to use. Who's gonna want to manually edit files every time they want to change the ruleset (for different ladders) when all they have to do is type a rcon command?

You realise u can just save the config files. Some where else and then swap them out. Which is as easy and quick as typing an rcon command.

No, because then you have to leave game, and FTP it, then restart the server. Instead, I can just type /rcon set pam4_mode <mode>, and voila.

Also, as I said, the mod is for consistency, so all matches use the same settings, and with ease of use.

CAL is using this mod. I prefered Damn mod but oh well. These mods make the game more even. I don't want to be worrying about choppers or uavs. Thats just dumb it's way more tactical when you take all that crap out. Getting rid of dumb perks was also a plus too. They only take out the auto snipers not any other gun.

Lol which version are you playing? Because most of that is false. You can use any Smg but only 2 people can use them. There are perks some are takin out though. Demolition or Shotgun class can have any special grenade. Of course theres only one sniper per team. G36C sucks balls why would they take it out? You can use it btw. Sniper or any class for that matter can have the deagle. You can use acog's. The semi-auto shotgun is there you can use it. And yes only bolt action rifles for sniper.

or you can just have 2 servers on a dedi box (something every clan should have) both off unless your playing with the settings already set up, then all you have to do is turn them on.
