Because once you’ve died you can just repeatedly be killed as you spawn (which happens mid-air for some wicked reason).

Maybe I just never understood how it works..

Why is it called ‘endif’ anyway? (because it ‘ends if’ you die once?)

I usually let the opponen fall down to the ground first.

Many peolpe seem to hate endif really much, but I really do enjoy playing it. It’s all about opinions so I don’t really care about other peoples opinions on the arenas
.
Still I’d like to get the Manthreads banned on any arena. Annoying as hell on ammomod also.

^This!

Would be much more fun without the goddamn points that people seem to care so much about.

Endif is only a joke when people are lame enough to actually shoot at spawning players. ( I dont :D) The same goes for other arenas, some people are just gaying it up. If someone camps a certain spot like high pipe on gran last I just put on some music and prepare for a spam battle from across the map :). Fight fire with fire etc. Also, just play MGE arena, it’s da best yo!

edit: The problem with disabling rating is that you can’t easily choose opponents that are around your “skill level” of MGE/DM without rating.

The problem with endif that most people seem to experience stems from the lack of administration.

The original endif was all about getting a point-lead when you’d go into spawnchain. As the original was played with a timelimit and not a frag-limit.

Now, as I understand from a recent conversation with the developer of MGEmod, there is a certain config file that allows you to adjust pretty much most things – it’s just that he’s also pretty sure that he’s the only one who ever touched it.

All the frag-limits and default rules were arbitrarily chosen, it’s time that the community comes up with proper rules.

In case anyone is interested as to why MGE is doomed anyway and how one could fix some of these issues: http://pastebin.com/eivi50NZ

Verdict: Somebody needs to step it up, starting with the ones that host MGE servers.

Play with friends? All problems solved…

And get rid of the rating, cause who cares?

IMO make both people spawn when the other dies. So you can’t just camp when you got the height advantage. Red spawns in spire are for example trash/balc/grey and blu is lauch/near choke/next to house. Time based @ 3mins, switch sides at 1,5.

In a real game, which is what MGE was intended to emulate, you could also be attacking spire defended by a solly. Imo it’s fine as it is.

But the red still has the closer spawn. So he can just jump up from the balc and voilá. He just won’t have the constant aid of +50hp buff that the other solly loses when jumping.

i have to agree with skyride here, it’s very frustrating when the enemy always hides behind something and will not jump you at all, basically passive play. MGE is 1v1 where each person should be aggressive, have had several people raging at one another because of this. i prefer ne mge because of the no fall damage as if your playing against a passive player then you won’t take 40 or 30 extra damage while they are still fully buffed. the only thing i can think of is that every-time one of you dies you both get your positions reset and the same HP. so no advantage for either. obviously with the badlands spire and other places a lot of the times there is no point to jumping down due to the spawns being close the pipe/spire meaning the opponent can insta jump up so you don’t get a chance to jump them instead. another point we need to consider is the fact the mge is generally and airshot training map…so if you don’t have the height advantage your both going to airshot each other in midair and just going to go right back to where the both of you began.
tl:dr
Position resets when one of you dies
People need to play more aggressively
