ET: Gameplay Suggestions Thread

Post by Runningman »

ive actually been looking forward to this, so ill play the "test" or "demo" and give as many ideas towards developement as possible.

ill start with #'s 1 , 2 ,3 & 4

#1: uncapped frame rendering cuz if you cap the fps to 63 again, it will die.

#2: 40-50 fps in any other game, hl2, css, or bf2 is very playable and suprisingly stable. 40-50 fps in q4 made me wanna puke.
i dont know but theres some sort of rendering bug with it. and yes i can achieve a solid 63 frames with vsync on in q4 and yet its still rendering all fucking retarded. maybe some small overlooked detail?

#3: some way for people to personalize themselves, very much like the skins for CSS @ http://www.fpsbanana.com.
ex: ability to change weapon skins, gloves, radars, and hud's.

#4: And FFS change the damn default movement binds from WASD to ESDF. no clue why everyone keeps doing this and who decided it was "standard binds of gaming". if you move your hand away from your keys its so much easier to find the F key because of the "bump" for hand placement. This is why the "bump" is there to begin with..........
plus it leaves more room for binds to the left of your fingers. i dont know if its me or what but it just seems logical.


best of luck to both teams...
next person try to continue the numbering 5, 6, 7....

please give a reason for #1. "it will die"? im guessing youre one of the peeps who think 125fps is crucial to any fps, since it was so important in q3.

#4 is personal taste. ive never used WASD, ive always used QWES. should it be default? no. WASD is the standard for years, it won tbe changed because a percentage doesnt like it.

#1 - Agreeing with MKJ, wtf?

#4 - Bah, I touchtype so I can use the keys without even looking at them. I've never used WASD for gaming, I've always used the arrow keys and everything else surrounding them for gaming. Much faster movements for me.

No you can't. You'll get 60fps, with lots of dips down to 30fps, which may or may not be too fast to notice, but that will make the game stutter and if you're sensitive, make you nauseous.

Solution: turn vsync off. You'll see the tearing initially, but after a couple of hours you won't notice it anymore.
