VALVE SAID THIS.
AND THEN PUT IN THE WRANGLER

I thought I'd finally learned to stop caring about valve's unfathomable design choices, I truly did.

the default fps cap is 125 but the cvar is com_maxfps on the off chance that that's what's wrong.

psyched about this new group. we should play HL AG or something some time. it'd be fun to get a bunch of us together to play random games that've been dead a while.

if people need a server to play on they can just mooch off my prem as long as I'm not playing at the time. in-game name is Nil

click "start a match" and select clan arena and check any of the weapon settings. They all match what they are in any other gamemode, including LG.

if the weapon damage is different you were playing on a modified server

also you should have 50 rockets, 200 LG bolts and 25 rails, idk what you mean about "5 or more LGs"

never seen that. could you give a screenshot?

edit: I just remembered that when I first started playing, my crosshair was really foggy. I don't remember what made the problem go away, or if I even really tried to fix it. I just solved the problem by accident at some point.

mess with your selected crosshair and cg_crosshairSize
also mess with r_picmip (use vid_restart to apply new picmip settings) if it's doing something weird.

edit 2: I probably just ended up hitting "reset all settings" at some point and that fixed it. it's worth a shot. it's in your out-of-game settings on the quakelive website.

what're you tryin to pull

http://teamfortress.tv/forum/thread/7861-general-guide-thread

if this doesn't help you, please say why first. There is no objectively best headset.

I didn't say it was hard, I said there was randomization and the mechanics promote savescumming. ex:

create a pickpocket.
have maxed out pickpocket skill
pickpocket a basic crony
oh no the roll turned out against your favor and he pulled out a gun and he and his friends killed you.
time to load a save because I got unlucky.

so then what're your options for future attempts?
1: savescum
2: only pickpocket guys you know you could take on in a gunfight, but then you might as well just shoot the dude and then what's the point of playing the thief in the first place?

This can be applied to any skill except, obviously, "shoot dudes", and I didn't go start up a top-down, turn-based RPG for stripped-down, "click on the guy then wait for his numbers to go all the way down" shooting dudes.

and that's why I asked if FO2 is better.

how's FO2 compare to FO1? so far FO1 is the only game in the entire series I've played and the heavy reliance on randomization and the near-necessity of savescumming really put me off of it.

from the perspective of a scout main: verticality! Of course, don't overdo it or else you get scouts "laughing maniacally while jumping around on props and clicking people to death". I forget who said that, but cred to whoever it was.

Anyway flat and open maps make scouts less viable because it's hard to get into meatshotting distance without eating a rocket.

Also,(still talking about scoutting) challenging jumps for unique positional advantages makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. See gpit B for examples. You can get to the top of the house from almost anywhere if you know how. And lithely jumping through the windows on roof to help DM soldiers makes me cackle with glee.

THIS

THIS IS THE PROBLEM

YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.

where're the shotty frags

first and foremost is getting lagarith lossless codec if you haven't already.

other than that to reduce filesize you can try reducing the framerate or resolution, but generally raw videos are going to be pretty enormous no matter what you do. They're more reasonably sized after rendering.
