Simple questions for Raven.

Post by **jester!** » Tue Dec 06, 2005 10:51 pm

Shotgun switching bug. Being fixed?

Sound system. Being looked at?

Netcode upload. Being made flexible?

Console, binding and such. Being uncrippled?

Come on rgoer, hook us up with the inside scoop.

i would assume that the SG will be fixed in an official patch with arQon stating it as fact that it is a bug and WILL be fixed. ironic that him fixing it for solely q4max (speculation) would make q4 less cpm-like...

Post by **jester!** » Tue Dec 06, 2005 11:47 pm

Yeah I would think so as well.

What do you mean by that? The CPM SG has a constant pellet spread of two concentric circles (16 pellets total, 96 dmg max).

The fast weapon switch is what was being alluded to I believe. But hey. I was looking for Raven in some form to answer! :icon26:

I think he means uploading of maps/levels etc. ATM we are stuck with VQ4 maps.

"shotgun bug". is that that whole "the pellets hit hm in the face on my computer but missed him by a mile on my mates'"-thing ?

I'd think in the case of Q4 it's the shotgun spread that's bugged...

No there is a problem with people who have lesser broadband connections getting saturated due to the amount of information sent up stream, a cl_maxpackets command would help those guys and girls out. I will find the link on esreality.

Thats something entirely different from what I was talking about, its a product of the different scale

identical Q3 settings which makes the Sg tighter, the LG shorter, ect.

Why the fuck would we lock this?

discussion forum.

I figure 5 days is long enough to answer those simple questions, why keep it open if they arent going to be answered?

Post by **Foo** » Sat Dec 10, 2005 8:53 pm

Because the posting community as a whole decides when a thread has run its course by not posting in it any longer, not the moderators.

That's why threads are bumped to the top of the list when posted in.

You lost me. I was never looking for community discussion on the topic, hence the title Simple questions for Raven. rgoer is the most active member of Raven as far as I can tell since they dont even post on their own message boards afaik so it made sense to me to ask here. Yes I could bump this forever but I still dont think there would have been any response. As far is the community letting it run its course, I was waiting for a response from someone at raven that is all there was nothing else to discuss...

If you want private discussion, I can recommend a few good free email services you might find useful :icon14:

Exactly riddla, I gave it a 5% chance of getting a response, no worries but no harm in asking right? :icon26:

Post by **Foo** » Sat Dec 10, 2005 10:23 pm

I still luv u

Post by **jester!** » Sun Dec 11, 2005 3:10 am

Well thank god for that. :icon25:

In other news, how about fixing the scale of the LG length?

Post by **jester!** » Wed Dec 14, 2005 5:30 pm

Any word on getting basic scripting functionality back into the game? Weapon X; Sens Y; mouseaccel Z?

I really love how each patch has the little disclaimer that Activision does not support console commands, it makes me feel all warm and abandoned...
