Gdziekolwiek gram, wszędzie serwery są w 50% zapełnione Francuzami, piszącymi w ich języku. Ok, to jest gra napisana przez francuskie studio, ale również gracze innych narodowości w nią grają.
Yes. Too many French players. I'm on 110% sure if the french players will not happy, if will be the game only Polish, Russian, Czech, Slovakian, Chinese, Croatian Portugal or Spanish language on server (chat). :/

English is international language so everybody in server chat should use english because more people know it. That's why domino has rage about french people because french is used frequently. Other people also would like to have fun, knowing, what they are saying :P
My Gamemodes:
MP4 - Countdown, Firefight
MP3 - Reduction, Overload, Flashpoint, Territory, SM Race, Escape
MP2 - Search & Destroy, Oscillation, Instagib

Perhaps domino is only playing on French servers, or only where French people or teams are playing?
You can't blame Nadeo for being a French compagny, nor French players for speaking / chatting in French.
On many servers player chat in all languages, and mostly not (only) in English.
Maniaplanet stands for possibilities and diversity.
Lucky are those who can read / understand or even speak French or English, but this is certainly not the case of everyone, especially not of kids who are perhaps just starting to learn a foreign language.

Anyways this is not the topic.

I think we are free to speak the language we want if the player you are chatting with uses the same language.

I see a lot of German and Netherland players speaking their native language and nobody reproach anything to those guys so let french players speaking french. Why are you only reproaching that to french players each time ?

I thin elite is not THAT bad, but i would still also like to see other gamemodes like Siege, Battle, Royal or Combo in the focus. :yes:

What do you mean? Where is Combo unbalanced?

With two equally good teams the whole match is determined by who gets the first set of weapons. Therefore one random spam rocket can determine who wins the match (usually). If you would have to pick up ammo for your weapons the luck factor wouldn't have that big of an impact.

There are only two spawns. This allows people to wait at the spawns and get an even bigger advantage since the fight is in your favor. The newly spawned has no/less ammo reloaded.

The rest is absolutely perfect, its not true that its luck to get the first weapons, you can defend yourself with killing the opponent, be aware rocket bounces and bounce the opponent. I mean ofc there is a bjt luck but not only.

Picking up armor or stuff would be not combo anymore but another gamemode, which I would see quite boring too and wouldnt play it.
The newly spawned has 50% charge, the guy outside of spawn has 100%. It's just basic math who's more likely to come out on top in that situation. More spawn points would make this a lot better though.

I'm not saying it's all down to luck. I'm saying the randomness that can occur has such a big impact when the weapons are done this way. Say you get a random rocket spam on a guy that kills him so you can pick up nucleus for free. Since you have this weapon for the rest of this point you'll have a huge advantage in the upcoming battles for weapons. You see a lot of luck and spam shots in elite as well, but in elite it doesn't have nearly as big of an impact.

You're already picking up armor so I'm guessing you mean ammo. I'm guessing you wouldn't play it because it'd be more balanced so it'd be more down to skill to actually win, not just timing the first weapons and rush them as they spawn.

Still not getting my point. Teams can still be better than other teams. One player can still have better aim than another player. Imagine you get a spike of lag at a bad moment in a match that is really close skill wise. Can't dodge a rocket and you're dead. This will most definitely decide the outcome of the point and possibly the match. In no other game mode is this the case.
