I always tend to have better performance in L4D than TF2.

As do I.

@Anaron - Have you tried turning the "Multicore Rendering" setting to disabled? I've heard certain configurations do not like running in Multicore mode.

[Blackhearted]

So am i the only one who's quickly growing kinda tired of how this game's based purely on luck due to how there's absolutely no consistancy whatsoever in weapon damages, with how every hit you take or give is a random dice roll on if you live or they die?

Can't say I am. Yes there is an element of luck with the crits and stuff but I haven't particularly noticed weapon damage inconsistency.

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

The latest update changed how damage was done, before you had a variable range of 25% (25% more or 25% less), now that's 10%. Random crits are now less likely, but normal crits are more based on your recent performance.

Also, the soldier now has 20 rockets instead of 16.

[sundayx Veteran]

Thanks. Hope we see the scout pack soon I put down TF2 for a while.

[Doli]

Getting rid of the viewpoint seems to kill some of the fun but I wonder if it gives a little FPS boost.

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

It'd give you a slight FPS boost, but not much (a few FPS maybe)

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

I've always left that option enabled. I'll give it a try though.

Wow. valve musta read my mind. Perhaps now what should kill someone will actually have a chance to kill them, instead of leaving them with half health while you die from the same amount of hits that you dealt to them.

I also notice they re-did the slowdown code for natascha. I guess the slowdown was indeed not 100% like i thought it wasn't.

Pretty good update. Good to see they've rewritten the Natascha slow down code. Hopefully it should work better now. And those 4 extra rockets should come in handy :p

[Mathachew Veteran]

I hated the day they reduced the amount of ammo the Demoman has, maybe they'll give him a few more stickies? Please? Purdy please???

Ugh. Sticky spam is annoying enough as is. This coming from a spam happy demoman. (and a trigger happy pyro :p )

His current ammo count is enough to take down fully fortified buildings and a few enemies in one swoop before requiring a resupply.

[Blackhearted]

Ugh. So earlier today i was playing and had this annoying little bug of sorts.

I wish they'd fix this thing. As it kinda throws me off when all of my hud doesn't match my team.

[Mathachew Veteran]

I'm looking, looking... looking.... and not seeing it. The SG is in a no-build zone?

Sentry aside, Look at the hud. Notice i'm on blue, yet everything is red when it should be blue. Even the names on mouseover of teammates.

[Mr Bridger]

He is on the blu team but the hud behind the sniper guy (bottom left) is red. Not seen that myself yet though.

[Mathachew Veteran]

Ah ok. I haven't seen that before.

[Athernar]

hud_reloadscheme in console. ;)

[Blackhearted]

Yea. I've only seen it a couple of times myself. But when i do it kinda confuses me a little cause i'm like... "wait, i thought i was blue" and i still am but my hud says otherwise.

Edit: ^There's a command to fix that? I didn't know that. I'll have to keep that in mind.

[ViZioN]

Yeah that bug really annoys me! Had it quite a few times now.

hud_reloadscheme in console. ;)

I'll try this the next time it happens. Thanks a lot :)

[Pc_Madness]

Or alternatively toggle Minimal Hud on and off.

[Scirwode]

I've had a bug where I sometimes lose the HUD altogether whenever I move to the other team, or tab into Windows and back again. Has anyone ever had this problem?

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

Source games don't handle tabbing well at all, it can cause strange glitches like that (in my case every member on my team had the ubercharge texture and was stuck in the reference pose, everybody on the other team was invisible)

Never had it when changing teams though.

It happens with me though, so whenever a control point is being taken away, I have no idea which one it is simply because I cannot see it :laugh: !
