Come back to 1.1!
« on: April 04, 2011, 04:55:35 pm »
I was wondering if you could all come back to 1.1 and play just for the weekend, i would like to see all my old friends who moved on to 1.2:) seeming as my 1.2 doesnt work. Just for old times sake. i'm not forcing you to come back and leave 1.2 i'm just saying it would be nice to see more people, especially on the lagged servers.

You could post in troubleshooting and get your problem fixed. 1.2 is mostly better than 1.1 so it's worth it.

Fix your GPP installation and come play with us, it really is a much nicer place to be.

Lol.

I like 1.1's gameplay concepts overall more than 1.2. Nonetheless, I got bored of 1.1 overall because it's pretty much completely dead except for shit like KoRx (lol), X (lol), and uBP (lol).

If you're still on 1.1 expecting it to stay alive you're wasting your time. At least do both versions until 1.1 all that's legit left are the modded/retarded servers.

If you're against unlagged, I'd strongly suggest you toss that aside. Most vocal Euros appear to be just fine with the feel of it now; granted, all reasonable problems with unlagged were based on simple distaste for how it made things appear.

Suuuuuure. I wish. I'm getting so bored of standard Trem now. (I'm not going so far as to play on x or ubp though)

But you're right. 1.2 is bad. Call me a troll, but why fix what aint broken? Me, and a lot of other people would have preferred to just have a graphical update for the current game.

Graphics are hawt though.

1.2 isn't final yet. Still plenty of time for things to change. Personally, I'd be content with it if the goon was actually fun to use, despite there being numerous other apparent problems involving the awkward polarity in the current "balance."

Also, whether you like it or not you're eventually going to come to 1.2. Either that or quit the game. 1.1 has no future.

I look back on 1.1 now and while I enjoyed the overall gameplay more than I enjoy 1.2's current gameplay, 1.1 is kinda like the ass end of the game now. It's more fucked up and retarded now than ever. 1.2's got plenty of idiots, but at least it has a decent amount of semi-sensible to sensible (if only a few) people who can speak decent English. It would also appear that there's a new clan scene developing. The game's showing some signs of life, although I still don't think it's going to go anywhere. I highly doubt that the gameplay will get fixed up enough to be attractive to enough incoming players to give it much promise of reviving. Most new players I see come in now end up leaving or just find the game to be terrible.

I like how you insinuate the devs will actually listen to any talk of major changes/reverts.

As for 1.2, I'll move over as soon as the 1.1mod.

Wrong. You can set your client to lagged. (/cg_unlagged 0) Idk why you would, lagged is complete shit. Well not shit, just retarded in how finicky it is about shooting.

nothing finicky about shooting in lagged, all u have to do is aim AT the target, not like in unlagged where u shoot behind and have some massive hitbox. and once u are good at lagged at aiming, u'r aim is literally un-dodgeable (couldnt think of a word for it).

Lagged means you have to lead unless your ping is really that low (which is actually common within Europe anyways but is almost nonexistant for larger continents). Unlagged absolutely does not function in the way you think it does. That's completely visual.

1.2 is much more visually reasonable for unlagged anyways.

Also, I agree that lagged players got very slightly better human aim on average than unlagged players, but only human aim. I've only run into maybe 3 or 4 lagged players that had decent alien aim, and it was never actually impressive. I assume that the reason for this is because no one really learns good dodging in lagged so the alien players think they're aiming well when they kill "good" human players easily.

That was 1.1 one though. Now anyone can dodge the best players if they spam their dodge key, unless it's pounce or trample in some cases.

I have retired from Tremulous. Definetely. If you play a game just because it has become a habit, but u'r only feeling like a kindergarten teacher - well, maybe I am just getting too old (hell, I was a teenager when DukeNukem3D was *new*) - it's probably not a bad idea to just let it be. And I do.

Don't take this personally. Have fun, guys.

If you look in the troubleshooting forum, you'll see that he did that 6 days ago.

I've only run into maybe 3 or 4 lagged players that had decent alien aim, and it was never actually impressive. I assume that the reason for this is because no one really learns good dodging in lagged so the alien players think they're aiming well when they kill "good" human players easily.

Call my judgement clouded by nostalgia if you will, but I've always found aiming in Unlagged much easier (less prediction required) and consider dodging in unlagged less reactionary (more prediction required). So I wouldn't call the aim of lagged players worse; it just involves different expectations.

Most vocal Euros appear to be just fine with the feel of it now; granted, all reasonable problems with unlagged were based on simple distaste for how it made things appear.

I hope you're not just basing that on our conversation. I would imagine other euros have other reasons for liking it or not. In my case though it was at one point a philosophical objection based on misunderstanding, but that passed and all that was left was a distaste for what it did to the gameplay (not the appearance).

It's been a while I've played on non-unlagged servers (still don't like calling them 'lagged' because it implies unlagged removes lag, which it doesn't) and I'm well adjusted to unlagged nowadays. I still have love for tremulous as it was without unlagged and I'm not sure if anything can change that.

Nah, I've heard the same from others who formerly were uncomfortable with unlagged.
