mailbag: cs 1.5

[toilet freak]

okay u all talkin' bout realisms, jumping madness, and such.....



it gives me another new idea.



why dun enable players to dig a hole, quite enuff for them to stand inside(but not able to jump outside), leaving ample space for u to shoot ppl with ur freaking gun? this theory is the same with a sentry gun placement.



in that, nobody will jump madly, neither get shot on the leg like what Kevin Laity mentioned on comment#83. this too will enable us to give and take more headshots like u neva had before.



p.s.:thank you to comment #84 from Gpig20, HE IS DAMN FUCKING RIGHT. JOIN ARMY & SERVE FOR YOUR COUNTRY.

Oh yeah, i forgot. You can find "decent teamwork" if you're playing

Well, Mother Theresa, i'd like to suggest backalley or train, for example. I find nuke to be a decent map, and dust2 is pretty playable. Does that suit you, captain sunshine?

GOD! atleast try to respect the saint, or at the very least the dead.

CS isn't about realism at all. Duck in half of a second to dodge someone's bullet then shoot them isn't exactly "highly" realistic. If you want realism go JOIN THE FUCKING ARMY.

Or you could pre-order America's Army!!! w00t!!! www.americasarmy.com

It's easy to summarize dust and sell it short. Most of the games where the terrorists and the counter-terrorists are equally matched, the "chokepoint" becomes the entire hallway, which is a fairly large point. Ambushing can be flat out rushing or patience. Once a T team secures the hall, they have three places to go (four assuming they want to fall back or have some other players stand by). How the T's gain an advantage is by catching the CTs off guard. An entire T team versus a two-man team at the sniper's nest will give terrorists a clear path to bombsite b.

If the CTs get a stranglehold on the center, everything falls apart. Since the CTs win if they run out the clock AND they can essentially cover both sites from the same area, it becomes a match of which side's morons are going to get "bored" and run into gunfire first, thus thinning out the teams. They could, of course, try the underpass, but that's a total meatgrinder. If they play it cool, you've got 5 minutes to wait before the Ts figure out that it's now or never. This is the sort of thing that happens on gems like Assault as well.

It's too cliche to say dust is simplistic, probably because it is. The gameplay, however, is not some simple game of checkers unless one team is functioning incorrectly. That's CS Darwinism, not a flawed map.

I think that dust simply doesn't allow for any real creative strategies. On dust2 for example, people on the T team regularly call out "Site A/Middle A/B!". Fuck up the rush to B? Fine, you can either push through or head down the staircase. From the staircase, you can choose to leave guys behind and try to flank B, or mosey to A via either the underpass or the middle route. This sort of thing is mind-numbingly absent from de_dust. From what i've seen, incompetent playing is what keeps dust moving. If this is different on your server, i'd definitely like to see it.

I see how you can view dust in that light, but it's like blaming the wrong thing. Responsibility should be given to those players who play the game, in my opinion, incorrectly. Honestly, you're not going to see the depth [in gameplay] that I talk about on "Joe Blow's HomeLAN 25/52313 DUST ALL TEH TIEM -FREE HOT DOGS." I don't know if my server is special, but we seem to have more experienced players--or at least better ones--than we do total newbies.

Well, that i'll have to see. What i do know is that i generally blame the people on the server for their incompetence, not my boredom with a map. When i play Train with a shitty team, i don't think "man, this map doesn't give you anywhere to go", which is what i think of Dust even when playing with a decent team.

but you WILL be drafted into the ARMY if you pre-order it. Damn me, WHY DIDN'T I THINK TWICE?!?!?!!?!?? (damn me)



PEOPLE, DON'T PRE-ORDER THE GAME. YOU'LL BE DRAFTED INTO THE ARMY. DON'T DON'T DON'T (unless of course, you WANT TO be drafted)

If Valve were out to make cheats work, why would they develop an anti-cheat in the first place? The fact is they've stopped a lot of cheats—not all of them—and have pissed off a lot of cheaters in the process. I've heard this argument from cheaters before, it's just absolute nonsense. Allow me to make an analogy: AIDS may sell condoms, but condoms don't—um—sell—uh—AIDS. Yeah, so I ditched analogy week in high school; give me a break!



I'm not going to ridicule you or your family, I simply wouldn't want to look foolish in front of the person who thinks that Valve has officially sold their soul and is in cahoots with myg0t and the KKK; this is of course after Valve shot JFK and faked the moon landing.

hahahahahah. hahahahhahah
