(pulley) #61

[QUOTE=BomBaKlaK;448213]OK … so I persist a bit and now this is the first /ragequit since the alpha start …
I really dislike this update … Waiting next month for the next update …
not fun anymore with this TTK.

1 good point spawn waves in SW[/QUOTE]

did they change the ttk? I cant see any difference. Sure the new old LT weapon is powerful the same with the soldier guns… But its all ok for me!

That’s a shame. I have also crossfire but only around 40 fps boost :frowning: But it’s still a huge improvement for me because now I have 50 fps in fights instead of 25 fps.

You can change/disable quite a lot of hud elements yourself. The HUD is a low priority thing on their list I’m sure and that’s because it takes time and might be that new things in the game would require drastic edits to the hud. Also it’s not 100% clear what the hud should look like, but you can probably help them out by posting a hud to your linking with the current hud settings and possibly some drawings for things you can’t change.

For example, my hud atm:

Exact same pc / settings. No fps difference at all. How much fps do you get.

My fps jumps from 150 to 220.

Feel free to name a layout after me:


(Kl3ppy) #72

is it normal that the Blood/Dirt Post Process / Menu Post Process is set on On and I can switch it? Or did I mess it up with my cfg?



(Mustang) #73

It’s not normal no, did you mark your ini’s as read only maybe?


(Kl3ppy) #74

No. Yesterday I was able to switch it ingame but now its not working anymore. I’ll try what happens when I delete all cfg and get the new ones.

Edit: Ok, it must be something with my cfgs, now its working. Need to find the error.


(MrFunkyFunk) #75

Don’t worry I know*, but it was more of a “bump” (subject has been mentionned ever since I joined months ago) and an over-exegerated example from a default cfg. Something any new player will have to cope with when he jumps in.
It was a genuine question: is it a new trend or on purpose nowadays to have such an invasive UI, a “in your face” kind of design? Is the new world of fps gaming full of lazy people who can’t be arsed to read a minimap to see where to go and what’s going on in the game that devs need to get a Tron’ish ethereal stalker icons on everything? I’m just curious of the idea.

The removal of the HP bar is a first step, I still don’t understand why it was there in the first place just like the name, class and the arrow. I don’t mind seeing who I shoot if my crosshair hoovers on their model but I don’t like the UI making up for a player’s lack of attention & action analysis. I hope it’s not the direction it’s going to.

Another example: Did you see Shifty? (if you spotted his model 200m away on the bridge against the far wall, through the tree without the UI telling you: you’re very good or had been tipped off by someone else)


*I had everything disabled for enemies and more alpha & radius tweaks for obj & items icons.

I have encountered the same thing and yesterday during some games I could, others I couldn’t switch the post process to OFF.
A few people on TS3 mentionned it too (with default cfgs).

re HUD

What do people think about a quick button for all HUD off/on.
pre select what you need to show all the time, maybe nothing.
then in game press hold for HUD to show. Release to turn off.

as you get to know things you’ll rely less and less on the HUD.


(Mustang) #78

I think all objective icons should be replaced with a persistent text description at the top of the screen of the current objective.


(murka) #79

I was actually surprised how much people train looking at minimap in some games. For example in sc2 you have to look at it pretty much the whole time, move scouts on it etc. Also in LoL I notice a lot of people being ganked just because they didn’t look at minimap. So yes, it’s the new world of gaming of not using minimap.
