Merc zoom

[Blank Man]

I think that this type of game really matches that sort of sniping. Can't really explain what it is about it that makes them go together so well, but I can't imagine PS sniping like anything other than CT. Please tell me it stayes!  :-\

Sniping doesnt need any amping up....it already does double damage  making it the most dangerous of either Uzi or Shotgun in the hands of someone that knows how to use it.

Add the fact that you have the twitch movement allowing for very quick movements  and  all of the Rifle Nazis should have no reason to complain about people that prefer other weapons.

but then again , some people do have a point of having one weapon, it eliminates all the bickering. ya have one weapon , your stuck with it / deal with  it.

There's no point in that Agent.  Why not give a perfectly balanced selection of weapons to the player?  Nothing wrong with that.  It was already decided by the devs so we should stop this discussion before it reaches 3 posts lmao

Sorry to care about the gun situation in the game. Its not complaining about others preferring other weapons. In fact, it never has been that. Its about balance and logic for THIS type of game.

So there is no real point in discussing CT issues....but we can certainly discuss PS issues once we have something for you guys to beta test.

these complaints  have everything to do with CT and never had anything to do with PS.

[Gawain]

i think ct sniping was pretty unique and fine, though something should be done about the hold-breath function: either remove it or make it useful.

@goodkebap and whoever mockering on the 3vs1 weapon thingy:
1) don't call a discussion on an important topic "complaining"
2) this isn't about ct or ps, it's about svm and some logic
3) there's a dedicated thread for this topic, so go there

Yeah, so balance the other 3 weapons and we're all fine and dandy.

As I said, this about the merc zoom.  Nothing much to discuss imo.  It seems like the majority like it the way it is but want a more useful breathing feature.

Yeah, if anything sniping is too powerful as it is now, at least in the hands of a good player.

The fact that all the pros choose rifle should be an indication that maybe it should be toned down a bit.

no it's not. and the pros don't take rifle because of that but because of the lag bs uzi causes and the totally broken shotty.

If pros were so smart wouldn't they take the "oh so overpowered" uzi?  Just make the other 2 weapons balanced, or useful, and there's no problem.

[InvisibleMan999]

Oh bull. Pros take the best gun they can find. That's how it works in all games. Most of the time when there's a glitch of some kind, it just becomes part of the game for a pro player.

Pros use the rifle because they think it's better. And that's all there is to it. And I think that the rifle is the best weapon in the hands of a pro. As "Crazy broken" as the uzi might be, it's not going to instakill a spy across the level. Yes, the rifle takes the most skill to use since you've got to be precise in sniping, but if you're good with it, then hands down, it's the most powerful weapon in the game. A shotty or uzi expert just isn't going to come close to the stuff you can do with the rifle. So you can forget about the whole bullshit about how pros use the rifle because they want to challenge themselves or something. They use the rifle because the rifle is the best weapon in the game in the hands of a pro.

Seriously Rambo, when was the last time you've ever used an uzi? It's not the brutal death machine gun that you make it out to be.

In fact, whenever I play against pros, I'd definitely want them to take the uzi over the rifle. Go ahead, be cheap and use the lag BS, at least you've still got to get close enough to me to take me down with it.

I find it amazing that this is like the 10th time we'll have to explain this to him.

It's easier to balance one weapon in relation to the maps and gadgets than three.
