You all probably noticed that the weapon switch time changed on the DEV servers. Now we ask you to tell us your opinions.

Please only reply here if you actually play on those servers and please give a reason for your opinion.
Your reply could look like:

No, I don't like it!
This and that does not work anymore etc.

I really like this new weaponswitch time.

When you holded the firebutton in old e5 with BFG and you switch to lg or mg then it immediatly started to fire.

Now you hold the firebutton with mg or lg and switch to BFG or SG and it immeddiatly starts to fire Winking

And that causes more usage of BFG and SG... because changing away from BFG or SG is delayed again
When I play the new e5.cfg I see more BFG and SG usage than in the old e5...
I saw many ppl complaining about the horrible mg abuse... in my opinion it will be less with this weaponchange.

I think some players just need some tries, then they will get the system of it Winking

new wepon switch SUCK when we move with granades and lg and see enemy we cant switch wepon and do granade spam becouse switing too long and in my option is stupid idea... in this cfg most people win with MG or granade spam. and dont switch this wepon to the end. Sory Easy but old cfg been faster and prefereted skill players not spamers.
THIS ONE SUX, DUNDO, STUPIDO!!!!
ehhh :"(

Always free Your Mind

it look's more that u cant handle it with the style Big grin
its really to learn it with pract and in real excessive like 130 & 132 u have and learn it from begin with switchtime -1.

why u must spam with nadez? xD ...its noobish Cool

so u must look forward what u will do in the next second.

I prefer switshtime -1 and i feel i speak for the whole EN Clan

I think most ppl who started to play with this weapon change they dont wanna other...i think in excessive its ok but in e+ it was that weapon change and e+ isnt excessive so we could keep that old one. I played before and yes it is not so easy for me too cause i used that weapon change some days in 1.30 wehn sari died lol..so i cant use it very well...may be the excellant word is that strange. And i think there are many players, and clans used that old one..why should they change or why should we change. We like this one, we played this one. We are excessive+ players..we started here..i really dont wanna play with this weapon chnage..if i would like to play with it then i go to 1.30. and it isnt good for that ppl who played here its just good for those players who came from 1.30. I hope u will really think about this weapon change.

Regards

OLD ONE!

Hello
I'm one of the most-excessive-freeze-tag-playing gamers (often clan tag too, and sometimes FFA), I'm also know as *sam and as ]EK+[sam, and I totally agree with executor and explosive : the old config was better.

its really to learn it with pract and in real excessive like 130 & 132 u have and learn it from begin with switchtime -1.

Actually, the question isnt if we are able to learn to play with the new config. Of course players like executor can manage to handle with a new one, but the point is, the new config is LESS FUNSad (Really, I insist!). I haven't any more the impression I can fly with fast nade shots, I HOPE AND PRAY you will set the old switchtime.

? What are you talking about? With slower switchtime you have more time to look forward, the real problem is the games becomes slower then you (you change weapon five times, shoot five times, and its only working three times, because you go to fast) and you got the feeling you are damn stuck in the game (and the feeling the game is buggy! I swear!)

:!: So please, for all hardcore gamers and insane excessive + quakers around here, let the good ol' switchtime rock again. :!:

Regards

for me it looks more and more u cant handle it :twisted:

some ppl pf EK and DFE play SoD.MoD and there is switshtime like -2 and the mod is really faster as e+ with g-speed 400 and hastefactor together and u must very thinking about which weapon u need. Me or other ppl have no prob to handle the different switsh time well every of this makes fun and it not less.

Re: Weapon Switchtime (excessive5)

This new slow weaponchange settings are really shitty.. its like the old 1.30 excessive...

Actually i think i play excessiveplus 1.32 now so why change it back to the old style.. there is no point in that.. ----> Make more e servers then

This cfg is for grannys.. not quick players.. grrr

Excessiplus will be death after that change... all ppls will leave...

I already spoke to 3 clans about that..
