Game Forum / Action Games / Half Life / September 2006CS Market
http://www.steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/ I think this is quite funny. Apparently, the MAC-10 is the deal of the week. No wonder, it's sh.t. I think players get so used to the same weapon for wars and practice that they're going to buy M4's and AK's.

Wow, that's quite a cool idea, I'm sure you're right that it'll spark a frantic chorus of whining on the steam forums (and I expect there'll be servers which override it in their .cfgs too), but it seems like an ideal way to give a little extra balance to the gameplay and hopefully make people think more about diversifying in their choice of weapons :)  SignatureBen Cottrell AKA Bench > > http://www.steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/ > > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > ideal way to give a little extra balance to the gameplay and hopefully > make people think more about diversifying in their choice of weapons :) I have to admit I like the idea, but I think that it's dangerous tinkering too much with an idea that obviously works.

"If it ain't broke..." etc. I Guess time will tell :) they can always undo it afterall - its good to see they're still trying to develop the game, something which I think has been a big factor in keeping interest over the years (although obviously not so much now as the beta years) SignatureBen Cottrell AKA Bench > I have to admit I like the idea, but I think that it's dangerous tinkering > too much with an idea that obviously works. "If it ain't broke..." etc. Yeah. But CS's biggest advantage (in it's easrlier days) was the fact it was constantly changing, new maps being added new features and bugs being removed. With the stability comes familiarity. I think that familiarity will wear increasingly thin even amongst the hardcore. I think many of the CS players have already left for BF2. I may be wrong, I'm out the loop. >> http://www.steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/ >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > ideal way to give a little extra balance to the gameplay and hopefully > make people think more about diversifying in their choice of weapons :) Nice to see my Krieg and Bullpup have dropped in price ;-) > Wow, that's quite a cool idea, I'm sure you're right that it'll spark a > frantic chorus of whining on the steam forums (and I expect there'll be > servers which override it in their .cfgs too), but it seems like an > ideal way to give a little extra balance to the gameplay and hopefully > make people think more about diversifying in their choice of weapons :) If it were more pronounced I might have reinstalled CS:S and played again but it seems to be mostly muted. >> http://www.steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/ >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > way to give a little extra balance to the gameplay and hopefully make > people think more about diversifying in their choice of weapons :) Yes, this is a good idea. Maybe they could diversify the armor (ala Rainbow Six) and allow heavier and slower or lighter and faster versions of the body armor. I like tinkering with different weapon combinations. I find the small Mac-10 and TMP force you to shoot&scoot so I tend to live longer while using those weapons. (But get fewer kills....) Squat > Yes, this is a good idea.

I think they should adjust your run speed so that you're not only affected by the weapon you're holding, but the total weight of the gear you're carrying. Someone holding a knife but with an AWP as primary should run slower than someone holding a knife but with a MAC10 as primary. It might make for less AWPing on public servers as the quicker players are the ones who get into position first. Damage taken, especially to the legs, should affect speed too. > I think they should adjust your run speed so that you're not only affected > by the weapon you're holding, but the total weight of the gear you're [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Damage taken, especially to the legs, should affect speed too. CS is - in my opinion - partly sucessful because it tries *not* to be a simulation. It takes games like SWAT and speeds it up quite a lot. The game you describe already exists. It's called Firearms. >> I think they should adjust your run speed so that you're not only >> affected [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > The game you describe already exists. It's called Firearms. True, I love firearms!!! Squat There's a mod out there called Gun Game that I've been playing a lot lately, and it's very cool because it forces you to get good at all the weapons, even the nade and knife. >> http://www.steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/ >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > ideal way to give a little extra balance to the gameplay and hopefully > make people think more about diversifying in their choice of weapons :) > http://www.steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/ > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > More crying on the steam forum then... Hehe - so will they stop stocking weapons if sales drop enough? > Hehe - so will they stop stocking weapons if sales drop enough? I'd *love!* to see the forums/servers if that ever happened. >> Hehe - so will they stop stocking weapons if sales drop enough? > > I'd *love!* to see the forums/servers if that ever happened. Or they start stocking cheap Chinese knock-offs... "Hey, my AK is a fake!!!" > http://www.steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/ > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > More crying on the steam forum then... Pleh.... ak-47 and colt are popular because they are versatile, they can be used at short - long range. Subs can only be used at medium range, and aint even as good as pistols at that really. Plus looking at the price changes, it seems fairly redundant to me, not enough of an increase of decrease to make it worth worrying about, if an AK suddenly costs $5,000, then it'd make a difference. > Pleh.... > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > enough of an increase of decrease to make it worth worrying about, if an AK > suddenly costs $5,000, then it'd make a difference. I thought that's what I said. How dare you agree with me...
