The new jumping system will bring more realism into the game, which it desperatly needs. They should also fix the hp problems like when I get 4 headshots with TMP and they don't die hehheh. I like what there doing to CS. There putting fun into realism.

[asdfklasjf]

The game doesn't desperately need realism..............once again: IF U WANT REALISM PLAY DOD OR RAINBOW 6

[Kram]

Yea .. go play firearms and dod .. if u want that style ..

[The12apist]

cs 1.4 you do know they renamed all the guns right?



It's no longer realistic gun names. It's made up fiction names. So it won't be called the "Mp5" anymore..it's gonna be something gay like "3lja" i dunno...

[asdfklasjf]

Its just a text file that can be easily modified ;p

WHY DON'T YOU GO PLAY Q3 OR UT

[asdfklasjf]

I do play some q3 or UT......however i began with CS because i liked the balance.......its not quite as hectic and yet the movements were just right. However without being able to jump more than 2 times is really gonna impaire the game to the extent of dod or something similair (which fuckin sux).

[Plekto]

It sounds like you were weaned on Quake and UT and expect a game that has a physics engine to willfully let you jump around

like a flea for hours on end.



This just makes it too hard to suspend disbelief. I went back this last hour and played firearms.



- Stamina - needs work. Pass on their method.

- Armor and weapon outfitting method - sweet. I tihnk nobody can complain about Kevlar that actually stops shotguns and small arms fire - that's realism.



Then I played a bit of Poke 646.

This is the stamina system they should use. It is simple, invisible(no funny HUD icons), and allows you to run and jump around to an alarming extent during normal play. It is only when you start doing the same action for more than a couple of times that it starts slowing you down - and gradually at that.



Poke646's method would allow a very good CS experience for everyone but the people who want to hop 5+ times in a row.



Look, I know you don;t want it at all, but considering the garbage that Valve IS putting in, this would be a far better implimentation and one that we could live with.

CS is a Counter-Terrorist "simulation" so it does need realism. What you want is all arcade so play an arcade style game. CS was meant to be a simulation, and there helping CS not hurting it. Bunny hopping is stupid looking and should be removed. People with actual "skill" in CS wont need bunny hopping to be called "good" or "excellent".

I just recently heard about the changes in 1.4 and I half to admit that the changes to the jumping upset me A LOT.... : (



Jumping, to me at least, was just another part of the game. Part of what made it fun. It's been part of the play mechanics from the beginning if I'm not mistaken. And so of course some people, me included, have learned to use jumping as part of their technique of game play. From using it to avoid getting shot to jumping around corners to give a better element of surprise, it was just part of what you learned to do to better avoid getting killed. Even bunny hopping silently while moving at full speed is a technique I learned after constantly getting killed by people who already could do it when I could not. Did I ever think that that was STUPID or GAY that he killed me like that? No. And why? Because I never thought to question the game. I figured if he could do it, so could I.



All the jumping techniques I've learned hasn't been from playing other games like Q3 either, which some of you suggest are where all the "bunnies on crack" come from, but from observing the top players I've seen. It seems to me that a lot of you guys who are complaining dislike these players who can jump and still hit you with a headshot from a deagle. People who can avoid your shooting killing you or reduce damage and escape. Some of you are even complaining about how a single player will go off on his own and kill a lot a people by soloing, and how that shows a lack of teamwork...I would think that the majority of you would choose to go off soloing too if you had the skills to stay alive and get the kills without the rest of your team, thus in turn helping your team buy killing a number of the opposing force.



As for the realism issue. All I can say is "are you f$cking kidding me?". Not once have I ever thought that something in CS wasn't realistic enough. I mean come on people. It is a freakin' GAME. You sit on your ASS in front of you moniter with a keyboard and a mouse that you "klick" to shoot... The real issue is what's fun. CS is fun right now. Why change the game mechanics? It's popular right now. People didn't ask for this or at least I never read once from anyone that this would be a good addition...



But I can't predict the future so I can't say if it's a change for the good or bad... It's just that I like CS how it is, as I figure do the rest of you seeing that you all play it. And I just don't wan't to see a change in the play mechanics that would reduce the enjoyability of this game is all.



: P



Also I read somewhere about this STEAM cheat prevention thingy having somethig to do with a monthly fee? I don't know what exactly is going on but if they start charging to play CS that would be enough to make me quit. Jumping or no jumping. {._.}

[Shadow-Dragon]

If they charge for playing CS I'll have to quit

[MikeJ]

Wow this is a hot topic! Haven't seen a topic bring in this many comments since that PB topic several months ago.

[adamxx32]

I jump up and down alot, its just my style, why change it? no one is cheating or doing anything wrong, u r wasting your time on this, but yet there is like tons of people out there shooting thru walls, how about u fix the aimbots and wallhacks first, then do something about jumping. 90% of the people dont want u to change it, so why piss them off ?
