Everybody in dx plays with random variable shottime, there is no real point in clans at this stage. Shits much worse than pre-MTL era.

There are 3 aug clans sitting in the bushes right now, and if B makes a comeback then that might make 4th unless it kills HK. With 2 european augers and 1 rusty american auger, my clan still needs to train the new faces we've gotten.

0augs has 1 organized clan and 2 unorganized clans, latter meaning that matches may be impossible to arrange.

While both dominant gametypes are equally struggling right now (aug activity is pretty much same as 0aug currently), all auged clans as of this time have strong 0auging capacity where as none of the three 0aug clans have yet a proper representation in auged scene.

So that is 3+3 clans, and all of them are in the bushes. But, none of that matters unless game gets patched.

Main issue is that to definitely fix the speedhacking, most players have to mess with their BIOS and disable one-or-more settings. That is not very user/player friendly, nor can be enforced by the server. From my experience, the patched launchers (kentie's or hanflings) do not properly fix the fire rates, but it would have to be tested with something like poors mod.

1) I made a mention of shottime in order to get the point to the potential readers in a way that they might better understand the issue; I am referring to the guest readers, as the registered folk doesn't appear to understand what such - evidently more complicated - threads even discuss.

2) I have never blamed shottime unless it dealt with shottime modification, in the rare case that you may have caught me once before mentioning it, see point #1.

3) This problem has existed from day one. MTL team was apparently -- to some point -- aware of it, or they wouldn't have tried to fix some elements of speedhacking. It was a massive plague in online gaming around and before the time of DXMP. That said, before I spent 2 hours with google, nobody seemed to know *love* all in this community. Congratulations, all.

Majority of the feedback I have gotten from this forum blames me for blowing the whistle or for not liking cheating, or say its old game so nobody should care. I like this old game so I happen to care, and trust me, if I play in your server with wrong cpuspeed parameter, you're not going to be a happy camper.

I don't complain, I criticize and attempt to provide suggestions that could help, but most of the time I have to put up with the noobs that troll my threads and limit their complaining to the game servers. See, fellas, I don't really like to complain in the server, I prefer to play there. Not only do most of you smartypants complain if I kill you hax-free, you will go apeshit if I start shooting 5 times faster. Who has a fetish again?

The fact that after playing this game actively for almost a decade I have no idea who Atrey, RedDynasty, or Jaeger are, does not necessarily speak for your abundant experience with the topics, either. Stick to zymeparty threads, please.

as of early 2013 HK gained a small bunch of Euro players, myself included. Ricci is also in HK now, but sadly there are next to no players in DXMP who are completely new and training or making new clans.
i already saw in 2010 when i began to play MP seriously that loads of veterans had left. DX has become a wasteland. *cries*
