No PB support for ET anymore

[Paul]

Trackbase does not have any sufficient programming skills to get a new anti-cheat off the ground. We do not have such knowledge.

A new tracking method is coming up very soon (that was the goal and still is, within 1 week now).
We were also planning to remove and kill the alternative cheat protection feature but it seems like we're gonna add this globally wide.

We're now in discussion with the trackbase team how we will support the continue of rating, expect a press release soon

[[TfL]DeV!L]

any infos for alternativ anticheat protection ??? links or something ???

[daredevil]

hi dare,
will jay2 get the trackbase rating protection?

Yes. I will ask Paul for it and for all other servers which I run.

I would never imagine you saying this but its the truth. This news is a slap in the face
Also PBBANS has also stopped support for ET and no more new bans will be made.

Yup, it's almost death to ET because of corporate BS. They will support wolfenstein which no one plays but will not support ET. That is freaking pathetic. Supporting dead game and not supporting played game? That sucks big time.

@Server Admins: Next version of silent mod will have subnet ban features in build. So keep an eye on our next RC release.

nice way of making little bit advertising for epic clan hehe.btw are u more concerned bout future of et or bout future of epic?as much as i see it and i already said it many times,servers like epic without any real protection against hackers are as good as expensive toilette paper:it might be expensive,but it s still toilette paper.don t get me wrong,but u really have no chance in tracking down all hackers unless u spend 24/7 watching closely ppl and u still going to make a lot of mistakes even so.yes pb not supporting et anymore is really bad news,and i more concern bout that than i m bout the alternative cheat protection epic server use which dont protect anything at all anyway.

If you need alternative cheatprotection get to me on xfire: trackbase

r.i.p. et unless nq,jay,.. gonna be supported by tzac and if not most raters will get ban on every server for 'hack'

listen guys the way i see it yea indeed teribble news and so on...but in all evil is also a good thing,u just have to look closely and carefoully.u going to ask me how come:well,when i started to play et,i got from google the 2.55 installer,as many others did too of course.2 years later i found out about et pro and today as i ve seen/done enough in this game i can say is not that bad.what i m saying is pubbers try to play et pro,those who are hungry for rating,focus your energy in playing wars from quakenet irc.u going to see that the rush and excitement u have on a 6on6 war for example,when u are on ts3 or ventrilo with your mates,is by far more fun than running crazy to shoot as many as u can on a 64 slot server.don t get me wrong,i have a lot of respect for the big american and european clans that over time manage to keep up servers like that full,but if pb dont exist anymore,u dont have to turn this necessary into a drama.i m pretty sure many of u have special skills inside that u are not even aware of it.by playing et pro now with full tzac anticheat support on pubs or wars u going to experience a new level of et.and who knows maybe some day even a new release for et pro will be made.i m not saying kill jaymod,nitmod or nq...i m just saying find another way of playing it clean and having maximum fun.
et pro dont mean that only the "pro" have to play it.u can make it too...it s all up to you to decide what s best

I dunno if you just are slow at thinking or still didnt got it, but there is no Server anymore with Protection. This is a rating Community, so of course we are concerned about where we can let our Members rate.

And btw, this is no Advertising for Epic Server. Its just the only Server with TB rating for non pb Server i know. If Jay2 will get it, i will tell everyone as well, cuz i like the Server alot and be active there.

And why should i be concerned about Epic?
I have a own Clan to care for lol Epic got great Leaders, nothing to worry about that.

ok we need an protection like pb was.......server files......for linux and windows.....and a automatic download for clients and no extra installition like tzac

PB comes with the default ET install, so you still have to install it in order to have it. The way you put it this supposed new anti-cheat would work as an addon, much like enhmod is, rather than a separated software... am I right? Would that even work?

Well anyway it seems people around here do not have sufficient knowledge to develop such a thing, too bad. I don't care THAT much about rating despite being in top 50 for some weeks already. I would just like ET to have a safe and working alternative ID-system to substitute the seemingly soon-to-be useless punkbuster GUID system. Of course I wish this community to run well for a long long time..

Anyway, don't say noPB servers are filled with cheaters, because it's not true (I played on one for a long time and I didn't see this insane amount). Of course, it's harder for a cheater to be detected in one of those, because you only have human eyes as an anti-cheat instrument. But that is more than enough 99% of the time, especially if the admins are actually skilled. It's too easy when an anti-cheat does all the job for you... we'll see now which admins are good enough to handle their duties.

I think more people will move on to tzac-etpro... or a whole different game.

Peace out.

u dont have to get on personal attacks.what i said about the type of servers like epic,i said it already many times in the past not only today,and for your understanding ,i m not saying this out of being mean or something.god forbidden,i ranned a nd server for 2 years so there s no way i m bad intended when i say that.i m just evolving and change my oppinions based on facts and experience that during time i achieved...video gaming or not.about the rating comunity,i respect everybody who put effort in showing his name on main page,but et is not all about rating mate...make sure before u secure the rating system,that u also secure a clean game and that u also keep et alive.with this being sad,i just want u to be sure i have nothing against u ,epic or any other no download server.as a matter of fact i suggest u read what i said on the other reply on this topic.
