Welcome. Just to clarify, if you download the 1.1 patch, you will be unable to see the game's 1.0 servers and can't join them either.

The rules for the PC version's Hero Assault are slightly different than on the PS2. You're not allowed to use infinite choke, choke lightning, slow run or infinite block here.

The very best players in the game have quit, or are at least extremely inactive. I look forward to playing you when I have the time.

Also, be warned, on the PC version, you can pump the mouse sensitivity up to 100 and spin around ridiculouly fast. It's a big change from on the PS2 and many players abuse/utilize this (including me). :whistling:

Which patch should I download then?

I don't see why slow run would be not allowed. It is pretty much the only defense against chokers that heroes have other than normal sprinting. You also use it for ramping/bubble hopping etc etc. Is it banned as in if you just whore it and slow run by everybody? Or your not allowed to use it at all? The choke to push match up is 60-40 in chokes favor, so its kind of redundant to not allow slow running of any kind.

Infinite choke... What can chokers even do without it? You have the noobs that sit there and infinite choke you to regain stamina and hide. For me I use it to sprint up and kill you IMMEDIATELY. No delays, I kill you straight up. I don't abuse the regeneration that it gives you.

And what if your a building away and you have them in a choke? The only way you can get them is swap to inf choke, and do a sprint jump over followed by a 1-hit ariel. I heard PC had some pretty different rules. They aren't that different, you guys just haven't learned to accept them as PS2 players have. I can make a lot of comparisons and come up with a HUGE argument for this, but I just want to get a little brief point in.

If you'd like to make an appeal to have those rules changed, be my guest.

Slow run is different from block sprinting, so you're still allowed to put block up in mid-air to stop yourself going into "fall mode". I also think slow running for a fraction of a second to break your fall is allowed too.

I won't argue the details of the other rules with you; the game is inherently unbalanced, but that doesn't mean exploits should be used to re-balance it.

We had another skilled player come over from Xbox recently, and he didn't respect these differences in rules, and ended up being banned (not sure how long for). Even if you don't agree with the rules, please respect them. You'll have more fun playing on a server whose rules you disagree with than not on the server at all.

Oh, and if you've bought a recent copy of the game, it should already be version 1.1. If not, you can just download the 1.1 patch here:

I believe the domestic version is for US versions of the game, the international is for all other countries.

I wouldn't go down that road. We have an xbox guy that is currently having trouble adjusting. PS2 and xbox servers are dead, this pc version is still kicking. Our ball, our rules.

I will make an appeal. It will be respectfully done, with lots of examples to back it up.

I will respect the rules, but I will not come to agree with them.

Either way, I hope to see you on game.

:)

Ps2 servers aren't dead by the way. Still a reasonable amount of people. :D

I see you finally showed up, wasn't expecting to see you here. Greetz neji. For the rest of you, neji is a ridiculous old school HA player. He is one of the best if not the current best jedi player PS2 has to offer.

That sucks...

Can't wait till the game arrives in the mail so I don't have to play a crappy cracked version that won't let me make a gamespy or anything. And I can't upgrade to 1.1.
