EA screws us again, a pretty useless patch

Hollywood · **EA screws us again, a pretty useless patch -** 12-07-2002, 12:53 AM

This refers to the 1.1 patch
--------------------------------

Well, big surprise. the patch didn't fix the butt sliding glitch. In fact I think it made it worse. I'm actually curious if it's our custom skins that are doing it. But not only that, now it looks like they are ducking when they get shot. Oh, also, I found someone ducking and floating right past me once. Great another glitch in the game. The only difference I see is Malta and the grenade launcher. Oh, and maybe sv_pure will actually stop some of the cheating, but not the wallhacks.

The butt sliding issue was supposed to be fixed. What the hell happened?

Seriously. Nothing is fixed AND we have a new bug.

I didn't have any custom skins installed and people were butt slidin' all over the place in the pre-patch version of Spearhead, so it's not a custom skin conflict.

Look on the bright side. The have finally fixed going under ground in Destroyed Village. It only took EA Games a year to do what Dogmeat did in a day.

Hollywood · 12-07-2002, 11:31 AM

Just use DogTagz, they work in SH.

Seriously - who the fuck cares. So people slide on there asses. You do the SAME thing when you are hit. It takes NOTHING away from you being able to kill them. Get over it for real.

Old Reliable, or Special Ed, or Coalition, whater the fuck your name is, if you play enough, you find out how annoying that butt slide really is. When you are running into an area and there are a couple of players around, you shoot one and he goes down, then you move to the other and just before you pull the trigger you are killed by the player who you thought was dead because he went down. Also, if you are close up and the slide down you cant even hit them, and they end up killing you. Before the patch this rarely happened, but now it's happening much more. It's a big pain in the ass that should have been fixed. Also, people can jump in the are and strafe, and appear to be going under the map.

Ok - sorry but confusing someone with a dead person has never happened to me since I have a pretty neato way of telling is someone is dead -

Theres some white text telling me they be dead.

I mean really, I know by now when I hit someone and they are doubling over in the new "hit animation' that this person is still among the living. It's not EA's fault, it's YOUR fault for being so gungho rambo and blazing into a room thinking the job is done when it's not. quite frankly I can take or leave this animation, it in NO way hampers how I play the game -

But really just gives folks a reaon to complain about their own game.

its a problem witht he pain animations located in the weapon .tik files

if someone were ambitioous they coud go in and edit the client area of the weapon tiks to remove the pain animations and boom, no more buttslide (it worked with the shotty)
