I was playing on GDI the other day on the City map and we had destroyed the Hand already. We had made a few unsuccessful flame rushes so I went to APC/Ion the OB. Well, I got hung up and didn�t make it to the OB and barely jumped into the Hand. So I placed my Ion on the Ped and danced around till I died. The eventually figured out it was on the Ped and got it but, Ive never heard so much complaining about me trying to ION the Ped. It wasn't my server and it wasn't their server but the beacon-end game was turned on. It not like I exploited a game glitch or something. Did they over react or am I missing some unspoken rule?

Thats a dam good point. Ill have to say I was wrong and it was just a Med Tank rush. I was just trying to sum-up to get to the point of this post lost my brain for a sec. Sorry about that.

Just ignore them you were not cheating if the host put the beacon plant on an did not give any specfic rules against it then there was nothing wrong with it...

They probavly just got peeved because they had been battleing hard then you go and try to end it in one swift beacon.

Consult your team next time, and if they are all behind you, there is no need to worry about some unspoken rule. Nod were probably just a bunch of sore losers Laughing

I say Ion/Nuke ped if I see that the game settings are set by admin that its turned on, nothing should stop you. now if the opposite team doesn't make any advances to disarm well thats their tuff luck. Most servers I join they have the rules plastered all over the start screen that you gotta say ok to to play, most of the time it says no base 2 base or beacons in the tunnels on field and islands maps but never have I seen no ion/nukes allowed unless sniper only server. Well thats my $0.02 worth.

This is a little off topic but here I go . . . .
I noticed that ppl tend to destroy buildings that have beacons on this -- this is in bad form in my opinion.

For example on City Flying as Nod last night someone had placed nuke @ barraks. I was covering the nuke (on the AGT side) with my flame as I attacked barraks. Now I attacked the barraks until it was down to a sliver of health -- my inention was to let the nuke destroy the barraks (it had less thn 15secs left) but some infi decided he wanted to do it ! What a fucking waste of a beacon !

I think it should become one of the new unspoken rules that when beacon is layed all u should do is cover NOT DESTROY THE BUIDING BEING NUKED. There have been COUNTLESS # of beacons wasted because of this. One of the most common situations is Nod or GDI is down to last building, they get tank rushed and someone plants beacon while they attack the last building. The engies inside realize the futileness of repairing so they stop...health drops, drops, drops, drops the boom - game over. Great - your team won BUT they won beacause of the beacon NOT the tanks. However instead of the beacon planter getting the credits/points the tanks do !!!

I really hate it when people pedestal nuke when we are down to just on buidling and the HoN/Barracks is already dead. Depending on the situation, a pedestal nuke can be appropriate, but I don't usually encourage them. Then again, I'll complain whenever I lose... It's a mistake to take it seriously.

Ped nuking is a perfectly legal strategy. One time on Islands some n00b whined about me ped nuking...while he pounded the HoN the whole game with his MRLS :rolleyes:

I know what you mean [sg]the0ne that really pisses me off when i say have a nuke beacon on the ref and say "nuke on ref" an then ppl attack the ref with their tanks instead of another building. Even if theres only one building left, when im in a tank and someone lays a beacon on it i will defend the beacon. instead of attacking the building.

Remember, it's an Ion Cannon Beacon, not an ION.

1st off, I'd like to thank Aircraftkiller for letting me be a member of his forum.

2ndly - Id like to apologize to anyone who got confused the by my typing ION instead of Ion. I got it right 66.66% of the time in my post, but that’s not good enough and I’m sorry.

If the server is set for end-game beacon then it is fair game any time in the game. I don't bitch about it. It's part of the game. Those that complain can find a server that End-game is not enabled if they don't like it.

On a similar note: It is Nod, not NOD. Nod is not an acronym.
