Is Quad good in FFA?

I've noticed your a bit partial to the Blue Gold yourself bbw !

I personally won't use quad if the server only has a few ppl in it as it can make a huge difference to the scores.

If the server is busy I still won't use it unless my nearest rival is using it, then I am left with no choice but to don the hat of whoredom.

IMHO It should really be left for the newer / high ping players to level the playing feild a bit, makes for a more interesting game that way.

FFA wouldn't be FFA without quad. Quad + lg = good fun :)

Like the jack in the box says, if others aren't using it I won't. Plus if ppl are using it I usually don't remember when it spawns anyway so therefore get satisfaction from killing it instead, especially with mg :)

I agree, I wouldn't use it if the server was not full (7 or more players for example) but I think it really makes a game if you can get a few good quad runs in.

I ping quite badly to WP (ISDN) so I think Quad is a good compensation ;p

great excuse !! :P

the fraggathon was a bit of a quad fest with the 20x quad factor, it meant that the mg was by far the best weapon requiring only 1 bullet to kill most opponents.

but with a busy ffa sometimes it can be hard to hang onto the quad, i find its a bit of a bright blue rocket magnet.

Quad isnt there "to even up the field for the newer players", its to break up the monotony of the game, add a bit of a change every couple of minutes, and give you something new to go for (briefly). The only time its not worth getting is in 1v1 - because the player who didnt get it would almost certainly hide/not spawn till it ran out - making it pointless.
