What is wrong with the Atlanta CTF server?

I played there yesterday and today. For some reason the missles are incredably fast. So fast in fact, that you can't outrun them in a shrike, and their almost impossible to flare down. Not only that they have unlimited range once launched. The spinfusior has a "wobble" in it as well like before the patch. It all adds up to super lame game play, as every one is in medium with ammo packs huddled around the flag. Any one know what gives? Is it settings or some kinda Super Llama mod?

BTW I wouln't have played their at all, but all the base server were empty but that one :/

I noticed that several months ago, I asked the admin if the missile speed had been adjusted and he said no, they also run crc checking, it's a really bad server.
tru kobe, never understood why a server would run crc checking. i avoid that server like the plague. =P
For some reason they think that with CRC checking on that will weed out the cheaters. It used to be a really good server except now all you get are noobs who sit there and launch missiles at the cappers. The only was to really cap with the missile speed is to have a few heavies lay waste to them with mortar spam and send in the capper.

I am not sure why it is so bad anymore but it has been tweaked that is for sure. I used to play on it all the time but I have not been in there for at least 5 months since the missiles are faster than any I have ever seen.
I don't know the specifics, but it IS modified.

Fast missiles. Not only fast, but it seems like they take a little longer to change course and go for flares. You can throw flares, but don't necessarily expect to live.

Fast spikes. Spikes are as deadly as regular, but they fire really fast like spider turrets.

It's sorta like Base - -. It leaves the lack of speed of base but makes it even MORE unbalanced in favor of the D.

I think the admin is a dude named Special K or something like that. I believe he's made the mod, too.

(I could be wrong about that stuff, but that's my understanding or misunderstanding of that server.)

Special K is PP's Special buddy. =p

huh?

dang I'm weird today.

HI PP and Astro!


oh, and as for the Atlanta CTF server - the only thing I noticed is that "You have been disconnected from the server."
I don't get to see the super fast missles and turrets
