    the bugs are minimal right as as far as i can tell, so it's not a big thing on my list.

    One big gripe that everyone has is the voice chat. (or lack thereof)
    It's very intermittent in working and when it does, it's hard to hear.
    - also, in the menu's it should be renamed "voice communication" or "voice chat". A bunch of my friends were confused as to which option it was during this free weekend and I must admit, so was I when I first got this game.
    - Voice com controls should be added as well. Like a mic check and level adjustments

    Second - get that map editor out :)


    please please fix the voicechat!!!

    VOIP is lacking and custom maps are good for everyone. :D

    They're definitely working on the map editor. But I really want custom maps too. Its the cornerstone of long living games like Counterstrike.

    I REALLY want to see VOIP fixed, and perfected. I know my gaming community, and servers we host(MNC, and numerous other games), have always used VOIP extensively to facilitate team, and objective oriented play. The fact that it isn't functioning, and that player limit is small, and often pub based, results in gameplay in which its difficult to encourage, and enforce teamplay. VOIP would help out significantly.

    This is one of my two main gripes. The other being a better chatbox.

    Because Mod tools are eventually coming that's all I have to say.

    top obvious things for me:

    - If they aren't going to nerf quickscoping, give everyone the same advantages that people can get with a macro and a dot on the monitor

    - Fix some instances where framerate affects gameplay in ways that it shouldn't (such as slow initial running speed at high framerates)

    - Improve voice chat (maybe by not trying to use the Steam one?)

    - Improve the chat box (longer limit, shouldn't need to hit ESC 3 times to cancel, fix random deletions)

    Honestly dude, it seems like you are the only one who has an issue with quickscoping.

    People like you who think your way of balance is right needs a nerf.

    My only issue with quickscoping is that people who use a macro/script and are willing to mark a dot on their monitor get an advantage.

    So instead of letting just those people have an advantage, they should give the unscoped rifle the same power and accuracy that those people get. Remove the NEED for quick-scoping, just make it no-scoping.

    It's the same thing as the pistol in TF2. The rate of fire on the pistol while holding down fire was less than if you tapped the button quickly. So people made rapid-fire macros and scripts that let them get the max rate of fire while just holding down a button. Valve fixed the issue by making the normal hold-to-fire rate the maximum.


    You can't realistically tell people they aren't allowed to use the macros that are built into their Logitech/Razer/etc devices or that they aren't allowed to dot their monitor. So to even the playing field, they should just make those things unnecessary.



    Yes, I hate snipers and think they don't belong in the game. BUT quickscoping has nothing to do with that. In fact, I prefer snipers that move around and quickscope over those who just sit in one spot surrounded by ice traps. I would be happier if there was NO zoom scope, and it was ONLY quickscoping.

    I don't know. I think Sin grapples need more tweaking. I keep reading everywhere they are not supposed to grab you while you're in midair, but often I get a weird cutscene where she'd doing naughty things to my feet and I get damaged.

    Also, something might need to be done to the assault's charge. I don't understand how I can level 3 charge a sin and she can grab me right before she takes off to space.

    I don't play Assault often, but when I do, it's usually because there are plenty of assassins on the other team and I want to Level 3 charge them all day. And what drives me nuts is when I charge one, and some how I get grappled?

    Supposedly it's intentional that anyone can grapple the Assault out of a charge, but it supposed to be a very small window
    Unfortunately it seems that even with the recent patch that was intended to fix lagged grapples still leaves that window rather wide open

    High ping players have been given the advantage in the last 2 patches and it seems a ping difference as little as 20 can give the one with the higher number an advantage

    Given the responses, I didn't make myself clear. That is my fault.

    I CONNECT with the Sin. At a level 3. She gets the uppercut... and in a split second, she grapples me. My ping is usually at 60 at the highest.

    From the Sin's point of view, it also appears I grappled the Assault in midair.

    The charging thing totally feels like a bug even if it is a feature. This is exacerbated by the game's poor documentation.

    I think zarakons on the right track with the sniper also I add that if they do add the dot and such that headshots be removed utterly and the sniper gets its old bodyshot damage back.

    A sniper is utterly pointless without the headshot, however. You may as well use the Tank's railgun instead.

    What...? Is there ANY POINT in playing the sniper anymore if headshots were removed? ANY?

    They should just nerf you instead of fixing VoIP. :p

    You're welcome to hop on my vent next time we play ;)

    that already did nerf me!
    less armor for sin and assault

    sins do less damage to turrets.
    reduced join gain to sins ;p

    yet I am still pwnage incarnate! mwahahahaahaha lol

    BTW, it's a peeve of mine, but I hate having to use third party programs to talk when it can easily be done via in game.
