10 things I hate about DOD:S

[sinkoman]

I just want to add that I think Valve ruined this game. I have been trying to tell myself that it is me just not used to it, but after 2 weeks, I still get frustrated with the sad changes that they made. Guess I will try the D-Day mod and hope that those developers are not bought by valve and their game turned into cr4p.

VALVe specifically stated that they were changing the game, and that it was NOT a port of DoD to the source engine.

So really, if you purchased the silver package, I tell you "oh well", if you purchased it seperately, then I say "your problem bucko. Didn't know what you were buying".

That's not entirely true, at first they stated it was going to be a straight port but then decided to go all the way.

In dod in hl1 you could actually "dive" pretty well. I actually made a training map to perfect the art of diving, and it was a pretty big part of my gameplay. Diving through windows was a specialty, or over sandbags to take cover from a nade. We need the launching dives that we had in DOD.

Going prone is practically pointless right now, because it takes so long to get up and it just sucks.

 

[AlecRazec]

I actually have to agree. I play an MG usually, and going prone does take long.

But if I get to set up before the rifleman or assault infront of me can kill me, and I hose him, it feels SO good.

If you use an MG, your job is to spend as little time undeployed as possible. The only running you should be doing is running from one mounting position to the next so you can keep your primary weapon deployed (preferably in critical choke points) as much as possible. You're not John Rambo. You keep the enemy from advancing while your reinforcements can keep coming and pushing them back until you can move up a bit and start again. If you don't like sitting still... pick another job.

 

[AlecRazec]

I generally do. But I play 24/7 Ala servers. And there's one point in particular for the axis that there is no real sandbag point. It gives you a good vantage point over Allies 2nd, their sniper and MG posts. Plus since you're prone and deployed, you can twist the gun around as much as you need.

Don't worry. I know how to play my class.

More things I have found.

*Hit boxes (well these will never be fixed)
*Some times when an enemy comes up the stairs and I jump towards him I get stuck to him and can't shoot him
*When going to prone the weapon disapears
*People near the corner can shoot you and you can't even see them
*Getting stuck to players hasn't been fixed. Also the way the players 'hug' each other when colliding should be made different
*When you are shot you slowdown like hell but don't loose any stamina. IMO it should be like this: You get shot -> you loose stamina -> when you have no stamina you will slowdown
*Performance. Low settings, high settings, no difference in fps.
*The game 'lags.' Even more on some other servers. The game can be smooth for like five rounds then suddenly when a new round begins everyone starts warping around like theres no tomorrow.

All of these things bother me. Ive put literally 15 bullets in someone's head and they just turned around and shot me.

Performance, I too see no difference in fps no matter what settings. Either it's horrid or it's stable. Very strange.

Lag, I get lag even with pings like 20, it's ridiculous.
