Actually, its still an click FTE mob, regardless of this so-called roll agreement. But more importantly the serious question: How does removing texture files help for faster click?

I've never heard of such a thing before. Then again I play a pretty solid comp with some pretty solid internet, so I may not have to.

EDIT: Forgot to answer your question. No, I'm not upset. I just think the roll thing is stupid and pointless because of instances such as the OPs original post and amongst other scenarios.

You can remove texture files thereby making the mob box appear faster on your screen. The guys who show up and win this every time they are there are doing this, and more.

Knowing that invalidates any argument I've come across that says it should continue as an FTE click fest.

If we can just take a step back here, do you think players should have an equal chance? Just as a general concept in games, do you think the guy with (for instance) more money should have an advantage over other players? If you honestly answer yes then (with no snarkiness intended) might I suggest that a Daybreak server might serve you better?

But if you think basic player equality is a good thing, try to see the basics of click vs. roll. Click wins are influenced by various factors, one of which is your ability to cheat without getting caught (another, evidently, is your texture settings). Rolls are fair and give every participant (no matter what setup, checkbook balance, etc. they have) an equal chance.

Isn't that better?

Are these custom texture files you're referring to? If so, then thats not the problem of anyone other than the person using them. And if so, that invalidates the argument of the roll.

MFer, you're the one that's suggesting to bring a non-classic rule into a classic environment. Maybe a Daybreak server might serve you better, lol.

If something is against the rules, I'm sure Rogean & Co. would do something about it as is.

Is there actual proof of this working? Anyone have a video anywhere?

This has been mentioned in some of the other 100's of scout threads I think, but one of the "advantages" is also determined by where you live. My ping pretty much never goes over 30-40ms, but I know people with decent internet/computers that say theirs pretty much never goes below 100ms. Not sure how much of an advantage that actually gives because I would never spam click air for "fun", but there's really no way for everyone to be on equal footing for something as stupid as that.

I doubt people cheating are uploading videos of them cheating. Probably learned from the mistakes of the alt-tab jump FTE guys.
