Smoke grenade > Awper

See this doesn't seem to work for me... keep getting killed through smoke, even when there's 2/3 :).

Not that I'd accuse anyone.

On any other server I'd be fine with AWP, but the OcUK one has NO restrictions, I can even see the entire opposite ffing team. This just opens up the field for lame ghosting, and when an AWP is being controlled by someone ghosting it's just stupid.

The debate has raged on about the AWP since beta 1.

The developers very much do intend for the AWP to be used as it is. The people crying about it just need to learn that its part of the game and suck it up and do other things.

And so what if you get killed by it a few rounds ? Its not the end of the world. If one team starts dominating two much the OcUK server balances the team automatically anyway.
 
didnt reply last night as i was far to drunk.

Like i say, i deal with it, don't like to complain about it as it is part of the game and as mcdan1al said, not every one that buys one is any good with the damn thing.

I think that servers that restrict it tend to have a different dynamic about the games played, i really couldn't care less if a single sniper takes out the full opposing team, he has skills witht he gun and reaps the rewards, i cant use the bloody thing so i know full well that is isnt a cop out in regards to gun selection i just dont like playing a map like Dust 2 and you have a CT Awper at the corridor next to T spawn, CT Awper at the bottom of the large ramp spamming the spawn and the walkway, one covering the the entrance to bombsite b, it forces you all to tunnel and the few that do have rifles use sit and pick you off.

There are tactics but it forces you to camp, a style of play i dont really like but i will do if i have to, all this considered its never happened to me on the LTI's server, its rare people buy the gun on there in fact never mind most of the team but as the server starts to become popular its something that will keep the dynamic of the server, the gun is part fo the game and it will never go away, i wouldn't want it to.
 
I disagree with server admins forcing people to play the game they want to play it, rather than how the developers did.

Slippery slope IMO.

Next will be the restrictions on the M249 and banning auto snipers.

Some servers would be insane with no restrictions. What would your tactics be against 10 people with AWPs? It would be possible to out-reaction a couple, but it's just not fun imo. I'm all for AWPs in 5v5 or something, but on public servers it's not very good.

Let me rephrase that, Well placed smoke > awper
 
Game event set for 8pm as usual tonight. I can't play tonight but thought it may help fill the server.

With regards to limiting AWPs I was hoping I could get away with leaving it alone. I don't want to start forcing players to do anything when they play on my server, just jump on, and buy what they like and have fun doing it. They have to earn the money to start with (or win by bet) so I don't feel like it's made too easy for them.

Will keep an eye on it, but I am siding with those who want to leave as is at the moment. We'll see if my view changes, only real other option is set it to 2 AWP + 1 Auto per team, but I don't really want to start doing that.
 
Well ive been on there a few nights lately and its a tough crowd :D Funny how some servers end up with totally different skill levels, still I know where to come for some humiliation :)

lerp is that 100.00ms bit.

Try these:

cl_interp_ratio 1
cl_interp 0.03 (30ms)

Adjust the bottom setting until lerp stays mainly white for you.
