Oh I very much hope this is real.

Edit: Yay, it is!!

Edit Edit: Does this mean that horrible underwater noise no longer persists after underwater death?

 

[netrex]

I think that's the idea Mechagodzilla So let's hope it works

This is so sweet

Wonder how the crouchers both jumping and actually crouching stick to their tactics now

 

[ComradeBadger]

Pffft they're just easy to headshot now

How to turn off auto-weaponswitch?

I have this: cl_autowepswitch

But WTF do I do with it?

 

[ComradeBadger]

Set it to either 1 or 0 (1 is autoswitch on, 0 is autoswitch off)

 

[pha+z]

[Jintor]

Wahoo, patch!

 

[PriNcE oF SpAcE]

[RC-73]

how do i urn auto switch off?

 

[Rickdeckard]

Here's how to change your local settings so that you do not automatically switch weapons when you pick one up:

1. While in-game, his escape.
2. In the console, type the following: cl_autowepswitch = 0
3. Hit Enter. Close the window.

Done. However, you'll find it hard to get used to! I still find myself switching weapons after I grab a new one, even though I don't have to.
