Jedi exist. Jedi exist. Jedi exist. Jedi exist. This affects balance. This affects balance. This affects balance. This affects balance. The balance of a corner-peeking, instant-kill ranged attack is strongly affected by the central existence of a class that can detect people through walls and...

Question your certainty. Certainty is death. In the context of the rest of the game: yes, I like it. Jedi exist. Blocking shots exists. Sense exists. This changes things. The nature of your critiques is condescending to the entire community.

@avnas The current documentation and forum/video guides are outdated and that does definitely suck, so I'm with you on that. The in-game library is more-or-less up-to-date, though, I think, so you should definitely give that an ogle if you're wondering about how anything works. "the game is...

3p helps stealth more than it hurts it, I swear. Tho we're probably thinking of different scenarios when we each say "stealth." It increases awareness in a certain way that prevents a lot of cases of having no way of anticipating the way that you died, so that's nice, but it also allows people...

ironically, he's complaining about how 3p makes it so you get instakilled behind every fucking corner, by Sith. plus, in the case of getting instakilled by snipers, 3p doesn't help you a ton since they can stay behind a corner and just poke out to shoot you. I mean, I still disagree with him...

I never said anything about skill levels. I don't see a relationship between camera settings and potential skill level. I think it so fundamentally changes the nature of the game that it changes the kind of skill required, and, as always, I ultimately see it as a matter of preference. From my...

hm. We need to clarify the scope of what we're talking about. See: Sense 3 exists, therefore: in the context of theoretical optimal play, someone would only ever get ambushed like that if every allied force user on their team was dead. So we must not be talking about theoretically optimal play...

I don't know how you see that as a skill cap, but I would really suggest you keep your opinions a bit more open and try to appreciate the game for what it is. Also, I don't think the sound design is good enough to have the same effect. I DO use sound heavily in conjunction with 3p to increase...

3p does increase your situational awareness about what's beside/behind you a good bit, yeah, so in that way it does reduce stealth capability. But it increases stealth capability a ton by letting you look around from a hidden position rather than having to guess what's out there. And by the time...

I think you're running on arbitrary assumptions about how shooter games should be. I'm not saying that everyone having third person is strictly better than everyone being limited to first person. It just changes how some things work, mostly by allowing for more stealth, and I personally like...

And? How is it abuse here? Everyone can do it. What's being abused? I know that in TF2 some taunts are abusable because you can use them to safely peek around corners, and not everybody has those taunts, so that's abuse. But tell me, why is this abuse? most people play MB2 mostly in...

yeah it's just an essential part of the game, and I like it a bunch since it makes stealth gameplay muuuuuuuuuuch more possible, since you can peek around without being visible. As opposed to having to reveal yourself or just go entirely on other cues like sound.

Yes, totally. I've played with No Crosshair too, and it's real fun and definitely teaches you a lot about paying attention to what your shots are actually doing. My main beef with that is just that I lose track of where exactly the center of my screen is too easily, so, while it's super workable...

It worked for me just downloading zzz_MBSounds1.0.3.pk3

Huh, are you completely sure of that? I thought I remembered having really weird behavior with EAX enabled before I learned about ALchemy, but... maybe I'm just better at telling what's going on now than I was then (like: realizing that voice taunts are coming from people's dead bodies). It...

In my experience, if View Swaying is set to On, then when I set it to Off, there is initially no effect. But when I set it On and then Off again it turns off. View Swaying ought to be Off by default, it makes scoped weapons soooo much more difficult to use.

The in-game esc menu has some overlap between the regions for the buttons, meaning that if you wiggle your mouse around in that overlap region, the button noise triggers a zillion times. This is also the case for vanilla MB2, but only between the Join and About button, and not as dramatically...

shoutouts to TigerZeta for making this thread, I ran into it while googling what the deal with EAX was, and learned about Creative ALchemy and how it works with the sound card I have installed. Now EAX actually works, and it's pretty cool, but still kinda quirky. Like, if a multi-life class...

I made this crosshair a while ago after a lot of pondering and testing about what the theoretically most-optimal crosshair would be. Recently I accidentally torched my MB2 installation and had to re-input my config and mods, so I remembered how bad the regular crosshairs are, so I felt like I...

You can probably get an answer for a small question like this more quickly in the official Discord, or just by asking in-game.
