lol hell yeah. especially CTF...if i'm up in their base and i find someone in type mode, they ass is gone. for all i know they're fronting like they're typing and will be on my ass as soon as i grab the flag. i play strictly instagib so i have even more reason to do it, one shot and i'm dead.
rofl... I make an effort to frag people who are typing. a) It's Quake3 not a chat room. b) If you are too slow to type & play, you probably get killed a lot anyway.
It's the best in Tribes2... cause unlike in Q3, it doesn't take 1,000 shots to kill you.
thing to know when typing in a deathmatch.... always play dead.. then type.. i don't know if Quake 3 has the option... but unreal and unreal tournament have it.. saves your ass alot..
