People lets make this game better. In Patch:

To be fixed:

1. When bigger fov, hand is cut off.
2. Exiting netdemos, fuck up all config.
3. Better filter on server browser (like, dont want to see, dedicated, punkbuster, locked).
4. And STOP option on server browser (not to wait till 1000 listed).
5. When connecting to dedicated server it goes in window then lanunches game again WTF? (not big deal but why).
6. Exiting netdemos, console all over the screen, you cant do anything, why? (you can write disconnect, but hey)

New stuff:

1. Bots support please. (ping is killing me and i have ADSL).
2. More maps and to be better maps, more 1on1 maps (remakes will community do, i hope so).
3. More models and skins (maybe raven, cobra, wolf squad... more strogg skins???).

1. Items in loading screen to go in some order, items, weapons from weak to stronger, poweups...
2. Weapon bobing to turn off as option in settings, who wants.
3. Option to disable starting movies. (+disconnect, but better to be ingame options).

update:
1. Jumping upstairs to be fixed.
2. Official console support, not ctrl-alt-tilda shit, and that you dont need to type backspace to clear it, that you can type imedeatly (you can do (seta com_allowconsole "1") in shortcut or autoexec.cfg, but why, better to be default option)
3. And when exiting the server browser before its done listing, it'll keep on pinging the servers in the background.
4. Mouse acceleration option for people who play with low sensitivity.
5. FOV changing to be option in settings (you can do (g_fov "100") but?

Other stuff:

Specular keep turning itself on? Zoom-ing mouse sensitivity to be smaller? Various graphic problems, net problems, editor problems? To play without DVD in drive. Flag to be like Q3 flag.

Odium - Q3DM7 remake please, after you finish Q3DM6.

So people plese post yours opinions and sugestions?

Sounds like a good start to me even if some of the problems listed shouldn't have gone through testing.

well i wont count on more maps or models just yet, but the rest are valid points.
also, when exiting the server browser before its done listing, it'll keep on pinging the servers in the background. lags your menu's a whole lot

That's possible. Add "+seta com_allowconsole 1" to the end of the startup command in the shortcut.

That's scriptable I think.

Why keep double posting. :( Try to centralize this stuff please. There should be one thread with an opening post that gets updated every time, summarizing all of the complaints and requests point by point. There isn't enough mod involvement in this forum imo. :/

The administration team here has about 5 years of moderation experience under its belt at these forums. We are here to enforce the rules where it's neccesary, rather than actively influencing the regular thread and posting habits of members.

This kind of posting is completely normal for a new game. Experience has shown that taking a more active moderation role in a forum only serves to turn away members, inhibit the free flow of conversation, and generally retard a forums success.

Short version: I personally disagree.

i think that fixing the stairjumps (i know "fixing" isnt the right word once its not broken but hey u understood me) should fix the doublejumps on boxes too. but just remembering, make jumping box a not so boring experience.

As a server administrator I have a few complains and wishes.
  • Logging! → Why did they almost completely remove the opportunity to log a game?
    » With quake 3 arena and all the games based on it I could create accurate statistic with focus on player performance, skill (or lack of skill), team play, clan performance, etc.
    That is now not possible.
  • Administration! → Why did they remove the game play from the console?
    » The only way I can communicate with the players on my server is now to join the game as a spectator. Also since nothing is logged how can I defence a ban or kick if I do not have cold facts?
There are more, but I do not have the urge or time complete it.

you can talk through the console. it just happened on this server i just was, there were "server: hi all" messages all round.

guess you have to type "say hi!" ?

on another note, i tihnk the opacity of the scoreboard should be lowered a bit. if i wanna check the scores or someones ping, my entire view gets obstructed to thepoint where i cant see if im walking in a wall or in a wide open area :o

Sure you can ban, kick, restart game, set map, etc. etc, but what good is that if you cant get any response?
And how am I going to know who I want to ban kick?

The only thing I can get by using -> serverInfo, is:
  • Players
  • Ping
  • Score
Not exactly much to base an opinion on.
