rizzuh wrote..True, Valve generally does a good job on non-gameplay changes. However, I would rather the gameplay be managed by more competent people for CS. How can you expect to make reputable changes when you don't play CS much, or at least not religiously? Same as for Minh and cliffe. If they have lost interest in the game, just say so. Don't make stupid decisions and ruin it for other people, and then be too proud to admit you fucked up to change it. This also applies to you rizzuh. Why do you run a fan site if you don't care? Your usual response to an opinion that disagree's with your own is something along the lines of that's nice, you're an idiot, even if the opinion is constructive and well thought out.
Their anti-cheat strategy is markedly improved over their 1.1-plan of "doing absolutely nothing except fix four month old cheats in one update."
Ignoring that it can be completely disabled, when your recoil is very high finding the center of the reticle is pointless. You can draw a little dot on your screen, if the dot doesn't really matter then it has absolutely no purpose.

mouth wrote..i mean the crosshairs that only looks like a dot.
You can download as many custom crosshairs as you like, it's not going to make the expanding crosshair any more changable.
rizzuh wrote..that's right. People, you've heard rizzuh. now shut-up and enjoy the 3rd B-day. yay!!!

Captain G. wrote..yeah, rze is smart (according to what his friend told me). never attempt to underestimate him.
Well, at least rizzuh had some good replys in this mailbag.
The thought that suprises me the most is that Gooseman created CS almost single handedly back in the beginning and it has outlasted so many professionally crafted games.
If I were replying to this mailbag I'd say something along the lines of "The biggest change to CS was the HLTV spectator client. It (and the CPL) set in motion what could turn CS into a professional sport that someday may be broadcast on ESPN".
rizzuh wrote..There ya go. Anyway, I'm not that pissed about jumping anymore, although I wish it would be changed back for the simple fact that it changes map balance in very subtle ways. Fix all the physics bugs, make the penalty after the first jump, something. All I wish was that headshots were reduced, to reflect how CS was around 1.0-1.1... that would more than make up for the jumping. But back to my point... has Gooseman played enough to adapt to the jumping? I would assume that he doesn't spend 100% of his time making CS2, and that he still plays CS occasionally... I'll make my third wish, genie, and wish for a response from Goose that yes, he has adapted to the change and if he does or does not like it, and if he does or does not like someone spraying an ak from 100 yards and getting a random headshot... pretty please flame me!
Gooseman does not play CS because he is making CS2.
[CG]TheHitman wrote...Good point. Knives should obviously be more powerful than say, a glock bullet. Why, you ask? Take a 9mm bullet, and stab your leg. Think about how much it hurts. Now take a big sharp knife, and stab your leg. Hurts a lot more doesn't it? And yes, in case you're wondering, that is a complete joke, and probably stolen from some other idiot. :)
BTW, whoever stated that the point when the VIP gained the USP was a great thing in CS is wrong; although the fact that he got the USP is good, the amount of damage the knife does per attack decreased in that beta, as well as the adding of the utterly useless secondary knife attack, which still isn't as powerful as the original slash which could kill a a guy wearing a helmet with one quick slash to the head.

{Q}doctorSSR wrote..HLTV=Half-Life Television. I'm going to mangle this explaination, but it's basically a program that allows clients to spectate internet games that are "broadcast" by the game server. A huge bonus is that it also allows for the recording of "demos," basically a replay of a CS match just like you were watching it real-time.
also, wut is HLTV and how do you use it (to avoid breaking rules, e-mail me at: doctorssr@hotmail.com) thanks.

That's what i was getting at. I had no real dissatisfaction with the way it was handled then.
mouth wrote..Yes, as Nighthawk posted earlier, which you may have missed, the variable "cl_dynamiccrosshair 0/1" turns the dynamic crosshair off and on, respectively.

I find the lack of a clear indication of where the center is to be annoying, because there's enough confusion over where your shots are going to begin with. It makes aiming seem more sloppy than it needs to be, especially with longer range shots.
