OMG The new terrorist models look like friggin midgets! It's crazy! and the new ct's look short too. What the hell did they do?!:rolling:
 
yea i noticed that to kinda wierd and the new t model kinda looks fat

They changed the height on both teams in 3rd person but kept 1st the same. The result is that you feel like Yao.

I also find that the game is VERY choppy and laggy since the update, although I love the look of the new T model.
 
I concur about the new T model's height.
I been killed twice in the same game by a T hidding behind the fallen coke machine in Office. All I could see is the very tip of his head, but, BLAM, they got me while I was waiting for them to move from cover... they seemed to have hit me OVER the coke machine both times.

At first I tought they simply inflated the T head so it matches the CT/T head hitbox, but it seems like the overall size of the T model has decreased. And yeah, the head is too big for the body.

I didn't conduct any test, but it just feels that way.



On the other hand, I like the new anims and the fact that T's don't shoot machine guns from the hip anymore! Talk about Rambo skills...those days are over! :)

What's screwed up is that the new sizes are actually realistic. Compared one of the models to one of the disabled cars on dust2 or something.

Also, why do the T's wear lipstick, and haven't they ever heard of a nose job?
 
More like attack of the teddy bears! ... just give them bigger ears .. you just have to compare the new player models with the 'unchanged' hostage models..its not so much the height size thats annoying though, its the way they move and run.. looks like they need to goto the toilet.. and has anyone else noticed that when you kill someone the model snaps to some wierd posed position? and whats with the overcrowded Assault map... you think they put enough cones in the map? its ridiculous
 
Yeah, it's hilarious to watch though. They've got bandy legs and run like old men. Maybe the terrorists really are an army of dwarves that were sick of being ridiculed so they decided to get some pay back.
 
I can't stop thinking about the poor animator at Valve who made these animations. He must be like: "Let's check out on the boards and see what people say about my stuff!".... "oh... eh what, arrgg everyone hates them! Why!? Why me?!" hehehe I feel sorry for him. And the one who made the new T model. :/

And who gave the OK at Valve for this new model to make it in the update. Nobody over there had any objections whatsoever!? Oh well.

It's done, let's just play and it'll pass! :)

Bloody valve.. they bring out an update with a few good things and then they ruin something else at the same time... like the quick switch silencer thing, that's one of the things i like about counter strike, i knows its more realistic now but this is meant to be a friggin game... they just can't help themselves

and why do they keep making pointless changes to the player model appearance that no one actually cares about....and yet you still don't have the old selection of different player models to choose from, which is missing.

maybe they should stop messing about and get vac2 working 'properly' instead
 
They say they are going to be forming a character selection over the next months.

I agree with what people are saying here, they are short, they are wareing lipstick now but I also find, and maybe its just me, but I find it harder now to tell them apart from a medium-long distance mainly in darker areas. The T's pants are no longer a bright white and now that both models look like the same body type. I plan on downloading skins for the T model asap so its not so hard.

actually no...compare the new models heights to the standing bicycle in italy ct spawn...the bike saddle reach just below their chests... :x
 
What are you all talking about, the new models kick ass, css used to be boring when you died, now you're lauging your ass of cause it's so funny seeing midgets battle to death, oh and the new terror skin is really good especially the vest.
 
I wish Valve would stop changing the models. They were fine the way they were originally, and after each update I find myself liking them less and less.

i agree 100%


and they aren't midgets!!!




...they're escaped oompa loompas...
 
i was talking to Hazar on MSN the other night about this very subject.
yes, the models do look like midgets to me :|
i just hope they hurry up and fix these and add more models for choice and such.
 
yeah, they do

they seem out of preportion to the rest of the game too for some reason.

VALVe won't stop changing them around till people learn to quit being babies about the damn models. They demand,demand, demand; and when they get what they want(new model) they just complain some more. VALVe can never win, people just need to keep their mouth's shut about the models, they've already said that you will be able to choose between models like in 1.6 soon enough....:rolleyes:
 
meh i dont even care about the midgets anymore lol im use to them

Maybe its just me, but i dont ever ever ever EVER remember poeple saying they wanted midgets.:| New character models of the old height and a better POV (not one that when i stand up can see clear over poeples heads and when i crouch my eye level is at peoples balls) would have been perfect.:D
