WOW finally the radar is fixed, so is the HL sprites of the aug and 552 (not really a fix just an addition). NOW heres an idea Y not make it so the shield will only cover ur entire body when ur crouched SO the ts can have some form of taking out thouse shielder so maybe mp_shieldbuy 0 to disable the shield. Also lower the speed of when someone is using it cuz that shield must weigh more than am AWp or a PARa since only only logical (the shiled is made out of solid steel,right?), not just when u +attack2

The problem with the Duals is they fire to the left and right of the crosshair instead of being centered on the crosshair like all the other guns.

exactly.. they could just make it so they both shoot on the same spot and nothing else and I would be happy :x

Riot sheilds are actually made of kevlar with a bulletproof plexi window, so no, they aren't heavier than an AWP. Try to get close to the sheilder, and while you're at it keep them inbetween you and his/her teammates, the sheild will block their shots too. Even better when FF is on. When you get close enough, you can do with them as you will.



I agree with you that it should have a smaller area though.

I'm looking forward to seeing the SAW (M249) changes. Basically, it has two (2) current uses in CS. First, as a humiliation weapon, to be used when your opponent is so bad that you could take out their entire team no matter what gun you purchase (tmp?). Second, since it has tons of ammo per box, it is used to shoot through walls to provide coverage or surprise kills in this way. Both of these uses are deeply entertaining but not really reflective of what that gun is for.



Instead, it should be a formidable cover weapon when fired from the crouched position -- that is its primary use afterall. According to the army it can be, "fired from the hip during an assault." So it could do a better job of that, also. Overall, it just needs to improve to be worth what it costs.

FYI The shields are made in a similar way to kevlar, not made OF kevlar, I found a product description for a two foot by four foot tactical shield that ways twenty-five pounds. The L96a1 weighs, 14.9 pounds, so I think there is a weight difference.



Also these are tactical shields not riot shields.

improved Elites? I dig

[xlokix]

if you've ever seen S.W.A.T (the movie), the riot shield is clearly used in the bank robbery at the beginning (for all of you people still believing that it isn't realistic)yes..i know its just a movie still, but it proves a point.



oh god im so glad the aug and sg552 are getting new crosshairs, i use really bright settings and can't even see my scope crosshair on dust2. and im tired of pointing down to see my radar against the light textures. finally its all coming to an end! as for the machine gun and dual pistols i really have no comment but, yay valve.

radar: about time

sig/aug: newbs will like it

duelies: now there's a point to buy them

para: as if the shield and auto-snipes werent enough



...if you disagree, you're wrong!

[Mr. Poophead]

All very good modifications... Now they need to lower the price of the TMP/Mac so that their price reflects their effectiveness, bump down the price of the P90 (and increase max ammo reserve to 150), bump up the rof for the UMP, and make the P228 & FiveseveN more useful somehow (accuracy?). It would be cool if all the guns were made so that a person could buy a gun that would better fit their tactics (SMGs for close in, rifles for medium range, machine guns for suppression, etc.).

nah... these could be improved by adding a grenade launcher. Thats it. A pistol with a M203 style nade launcher under the barrel. It would look a little funny, but people's buying patterns would never be the same.

[Relica Religia]

Make the P228's recoil a little less erratic.....and maybe, heh, make the FiveseveN the default CT pistol.

Please, explain how having useful guns in CS is wrong.

That would be funny to see, but a nuttle nubish.
