CS 1.4 Beta?

[the figurehead]

its seems pretty cool. its cool that when some one shoots you, the camera pans back to show where you were shot from.



the new jump thing has got to go!! its just like day of defeat. when you jump then land, you have a stall period. total bs. id play dod if i wanted that option in the game

there's a couple threads on the CS Forums about 1.4, guess someone out there doesn't pay attention to his NDA. I'm not sure if I like the jumping idea or not; on one hand it's really annoying to be shooting at someone and he's jumping up and down like a fool making it hard to hit him (all the while he's shooting at you and not missing... hmm), but on the other hand I can some maps where you need to jump multiple times to access another area (like that stack of boxes on dust2 by the second bomb point) getting to be real annoyingly difficult. Some of the other maps might also need to be tweaked to accomodate the new jumping style.



Don't get me wrong though, I'm 100% for realism. If it was my Mod I'd take out anything that makes the game play like DeathMatch.

Yeh i got hsbs enough in 1.1, but now its worse... its like the kevlar helmet is magnetic

I would worship the ground the design team walks on if jumping was severly hampered.

The jumping issue is just fine as far as im concerned. After you jump, when you land, you are still moving forward, but at only half speed for half a second and then you are back up to regular speed. It will do exactly what its intended to do, stop people from overusing (abusing) the jump button.



This will allow people who wish to play CS the way it was intended to be played to enjoy the game, and will make people who like to take full advantage of small unrealistic intricacies of the game to not enjoy it. Fine by me. If people complain that they cannot hop around all the time anymore and that they think the game sucks now and arent gonna play, then I am all the more happy. Let 25% of the players leave. Maybe then I can enjoy an 8 vs. 8 match without dealing with idiots running around like Tigger on crack.

[Half-Pint]

I agree. There are a whole bunch of little unrealistic intricacies. I wonder if the CS team will ever address things like:



stacking players (more than 1)

being able to stand on 1" exit signs

having .5ft of water break your fall with no damage (some would be a good idea).



I'm not for turning CS into Rogue Spear but there are some really weird things that can and do get done in CS.

I got an idea for CS.. lets go back to 1.1 where there wasn't BS headshots every five fucking seconds.

Yea, where you could unload a clip at someone at point blank and not hit them once. That was really good

they better not have a stamina meter like in gay of defeat, I bet half of the serious clans would drop out if they added one

If by "serious" you mean "we are just another DM FFA clan out to kill kill kill", then yea they would leave. And you make it sound like a bad thing!

[HappyDude]

it is a bad thing, you fucking moron. Otherwise he WOULDN'T BE MENTIONING IT!



Anyhoo, anyone know where to get leaked versions of CS 1.4?

Hmm I got the acceptance email, and I went to the link that was on it, but I haven't gotten any more emails from Valve.

[RabidLeper]

Actually, I like stacking teams. A team of 6 good people can handle 10 average players. I've seen a group of 3 able to handle a whole server. Not because of cheats, but because of an excelent system of teamwork. I hate to try to compare reality to CS, but do you think the Counter-Terrorists in real life would go and count the terrorists to make sure they had the exact same number of people on their side?

[Rygar]

I garauntee that 95% of the people poting 1.4 news are not beta testers nor do they have any friends who are.



Newbies please don't get wrapped up in conversation with these idiots who know absolutely NOTHING about what they are talking about.

[cracka killa]

i agree w/ rabidleper...we have a plugin on our server that when turned on, it will only allow people w/ our tag onto whichever side we want...we were going cs_italy, 5v12 with us as Terrorists and we won like 14-3. It's all about teamwork baby. And I LOVE the jumping tweak (I'm a beta tester too). I hated the 1v1 battles where the person who jumps the most won. Pissed me off...now, the person with the better aim, and skillz wins...which is why I went 16-3 first time testing.
