Question

[juz1]

if you host a game thats open to the public you can limit the jets by setting the year pre 43...but its an open room...open...

if you want to play just spits and 109s invite friends and don't waste the time of other players who seek out a game in good faith.

So the op doesn't come across as a recalcitrant teenager thats taking their ball home cos you won't play how they want to? fine...hear it how you want to..

ps I play without coms to stop lag...

I'm very sorry to say, but as the game runs now, and probably will always, there's one simple rule: host is boss. He is the one making an effort to let others play the game, and he can do whatever he wants. If you don't like it, host your own game. Simple as that.
As far as I'm concerned, no one comes off as being a 'recalcitrant teenager' if he applies his own rules in his own room.

P.S. Yeah, we got you play without comms to reduce lag from your first post. Not sure why you keep mentioning it.

I mention it because I and many others who play without a mike might rock up to a lobby and not hear the 13 caveats that are being laid down by Uber Host...so in terms of resolution htf are we supposed to know that all of a sudden OPEN games now have strict rule sets...

Ps A host trying to lay caveats on an open game of say COD4 would get less understanding and advice than this thread...

and since when was Host Boss? They've decided the game type and rule set which is entered at session creation...there control technically ceases, apart from when to start...Is this a Halo thing?(never ever played it)

That is because in CoD 4 the host is randomly chosen, not someone volunteering.
Since the host is the one who chooses when the game starts. Not a hell of a lot you can do about it.
In the end I'm glad I play Realistic and most of the people do not like jets, and the one that do usually are not that impressive.
I will repeat myself, despite my earlier comment : Everyone plays the game how they want to. Since the host is boss he's the one that sets the rules in his room. Since this whole discussion is based on opinions rather than facts, I declare this my last post in this thread*.

how about this then...have you read what the op is posting in the thread I need help (he obviously does....)?

ps If someone takes a jet or flying tractor its their loss...

I'm still waiting for when it was decided by the Lords of the Internet ((c)ITcrowd) that host is boss?


pps
Do you open supermarkets too...?
