Smells like chicken Tastes like Win!!!

Noize could implement his own version... You can play Fibre instead, though.

[Otherside]

chances of noize doing that are non existant especially since it relies on lua unit defs

and chicken is constantly changing and needs regular updates and BA updates once in a blue moon

Wow, nice mod. You aught to put some chickens into it.

[manored]

In BA this game mode would be no fun, as by the time chickens started to be a serious treat everone would already have ubber econ and kill then easy.

[Maverick]

Great mode, but it needs to have a harder setting.

[Noruas]

The ba version of chicken is flash spam, the more flash you kill the more flash keeps coming back for more Return of the Flash: REVENGE WITH A VENGENCE

luls @ this for BA

hell no u stay with ur stagnant game plx :]

also CA has alot of good featurues for this (morphing is pretty handy)

Do me a favor. Load up the Lobby, and look at the games that are currently running. Wow, 90% of them are BA? But no, that CAN'T be possible, because Otherside, the savant, has said otherwise.


Seriously Otherside, get off your high horse.

Clearly the most entertaining host mod for this game-mode is S44. Watching guys with panzerschreks blow chickens to bity pieces, or ground-attack rocket mustangs strafing them is awesome x5.

i don't even know what this is supposed to be a response to


for those not in the know: BA has a policy against new features of any kind, especially one of this magnitude

Because he really said that CA has more games going...

[Machiosabre]

oh, you.

[Otherside]

did i say BA wasnt the most popular mod ^o) mmm no....

BA has around 70 percent of the playerbase

but that has nothing to do with it being able to have chicken or not

frankly how the code works now and stuff and because of the lua unit defs i frankly dont see it ever happening

Meh, they'd just take a build they like and stick with it. No one likes CA's constant updates anyways. CA works that way because of their development process, BA doesn't usually even have so many test versions since it's basically all stuff noize is deciding to do, with discussion, as opposed to many developers independently submitting their contributions.

He really did do it you know.

yeah, I reckon CA wont truly take off until they have a version which is stable for at least a month at a time, constant updates are fail.

ba development is a joke. the mod is so out of date technology, effect and even balance/polish-wise its only a matter of time before members slowly change mods. main reason ca hasnt taken off is because getting the downloader and that is so much effort. if there was just a link and nobody was lazy so everyone had seen ca, i dont reckon ba would last that long now..

[Otherside]

i dont get it an update every 2 weeeks seriously....

any other commercial game or steam can update this often and the updates arent 1-2 megs but 100 + megs or more :S

with connection speeds as they r now and CAdownloader 10 seconds of uir time every 1-2 weeks isnt going to kill u sheesh,,,

downloading maps takes more time and even then you have to move them into folder by yourself (unless u use cadownloader or default ur downloads to map folder)

people in this community r to whiney and act like if its still 1997

and anyway TASclient autoupdates nearly daily and it makes you redownload all the 4 megs everytime and reboots your tasclient.. so same thing really

people just like complaining for no reason

Sorry for being such an ass, but you cannot say that BA has this much of the playerbase. You can say that 70% of games are BA. I would predict that almost everyone who plays spring has played BA at least once, while about 40% of people have played CA at least once.

Now, we need to get XTA up there somehow.

[Otherside]

im going via the stats page

AVG BA player minutes dailly is around 65 percent
AVG CA is about 12-16 depending on the day
AVG XTA is about 5-10

http://tracker.caspring.org/stats/view.php

then its every other mod

[Crayfish]

I kind of like the constant updating and new changelog additions every time I open CA downloader. I look forward to interesting new things happening.

This gives the game a very dynamic feel, and it's great to see before your eyes flaws being ironed out and occasionally new directions to the play.

[1v0ry_k1ng]

XTA is always just going to be us same 40 odd guys, maybe 5-6 new come in and the same number go awol. plenty of good games a day, just only ever one at a time running. with such a close community, its more like a soap opera :p it'll nevar be big
