As stated before, most people don't know about the ROE. I have a lot of friends who like to go to K&P servers, and most don't know it's against the ROE or that there even is a ROE. They search the available servers, see that type of game, and go there for something different, believing it's legit since it's in the ranked server listing. Blame the server, not the people.AlbertWesker[RE] wrote:
Ok so I haven't been playing BF2 for about 3 months, and I come back, download 1.3, and find about 100 or so PISTOL KNIFE servers....last time i checked this was a direct violation of EA's ROE...and I went on one of these servers to take some screenshots of padding bastards and I used reg weapons and they CALL ME A cheater, you gotta be kidding me, is Pistol knife servers OK with EA now or am I completely oblivous to the fact that these a-holes running pistol knife servers can call me a cheater when I'm following the damn rules set by EA. Otherwise SET ME STRAIGHT and tell me when these p&k servers went from STAT PADDING to OK. Thanks.
Anyway, what's worse--guy needs a knife/pistol badge, goes in one of those servers, plays one game, gets it, then can play BF2 normally on legit servers, or someone going to a legit server, continuously getting killed, wasting his team's tickets, and possibly getting teammates killed by not killing the enemy quick enough? I'd rather have these people waste a game to go in there and play normally when I'm in a legit server. While I like badges and medals, there's nothing more frustrating when you're trying to play a game and your team is too busy focusing on awards and not actually playing.
