Hi, my first post here. I have only been paying Q3A and E+ a few months. Sorry to begin on a negative note, but I see many players (some supposedly good ones) using LGs that seem to lock on to a target and drain its energy instantly - one touch and you're fragged. I am not talking of skill since it is not. I know that setting LG to "1" gives a straight beam whereas "0" causes it to lag behind. Is there some other setting that increases the energy drain? I hesitate to call it cheating but it seems akin to it.

Dave

......for the record you must not have played on servers with with Bro cfg settings, as it takes about 3 maps to frag with lg...And that’s if the guy doesnt move and you have him, pinned in a corner Happy

yeah must be excessive cfg, i think you have to also consider alot of really good players will use a sub weapon after injuring you with something like bfg, so its normal after not dying from bfg to expect mg or lg straight after Cool

Thanks for the reply. I am aware of that and do it myself. However, this is not the final cut after 'injury'. I was reading about scripts in a thread here on E+. Could they be using scripts to increase the LG's rate of fire/damage? In that way a short burst that touches might be all that's needed.

i can promise u, most e5 players dont know how to write the word "script", just the lg is powerfull as it is in e5.cfg

u just need to train also o use the splashdamage correctly, not just the beamdamage

or how many 0 you may need to put after it = invisible beam so all you see is your crosshair.
