Weapon Switchtime (excessive5)

I not already played there but i really don't get it why people wanne use like 5 weapons in 1 sec. My idea is that you not have to think wich weapon u use then but only need 1 button for change 5 time's in a sec so you are sure u will hit something.

Weapon Switchtime (excessive5)

ok I tried the most used weaponswitches with switchtime -1 and switchtime 0

This is an objective overview Winking

0 = instant
1 = delayed

Example: switching from lg -> bfg is with switchtime 0 delayed and with switchtime -1 instant.

Switching || 0 || -1

mg -> sg || 1 || 0
mg -> gl || 1 || 0
mg -> lg || 0 || 0
mg -> bfg|| 1 || 0
sg -> mg || 0 || 1
sg -> gl || 1 || 1
sg -> lg || 0 || 1
sg -> bfg || 1 || 1
gl -> mg || 0 || 1
gl -> sg || 1 || 1
gl -> lg || 0 || 1
lg -> mg || 0 || 0
lg -> sg || 1 || 0
lg -> gl || 1 || 0
lg -> bfg || 1 || 0
bfg -> mg|| 0 || 1
bfg -> sg || 1 || 1
bfg -> gl || 1 || 1
bfg -> lg || 0 || 1

So not -1 and not 0 is faster at all. Its all about single changings!

So all clans which are used to pants v4 and came to e+ will prefer -1.
And all clans which are born in e+ and growed with 0 will prefer 0.

Pants clans: DFE, EN, A, Evil
X+ clans: EK+, X, MDK, GoN

Would be cool if there was a switching time which is instant all the time (but that doesnt exist).
So half of the clans will always have trouble with the switching times.
And that is a real problem!

But yesterday with switchtime -1, I saw the first games without mg and lg.
You can really trust me that with switchtime -1 you will see less of it.
Because the switchtimes lead you away from it. And not towards it like with switchtime 0.

Look i think the best was the old one, and it isnt good for us who used the old one cause most of us cant handle this. But those clans who came to e+ could use it(old one e+ switch) so easely..but we should learn to use it(new one)..why should we do that. It isnt just about lg or mg..etc.. it is about fast moves..for example in ctf i make a bfg jump then i wanna a fast nade but i cant cause i have to wait 1 sec omg..and it is same in ffa and in other gametype. I really wanna back the old one. It isnt excessive. If we wanna play that then we go to 1.30. I really dont understand why do u make an other excessive after that died..1.30 died, forget it, it is the past....So it is 1.32, e+ not 1.30 and excessive. of course im not oldskool player etc..but soon it will be over one year that im playing with this mod. I used the old one e+ switch i liked that i learned that..i really dont wanna change!! Why should i!!?? I really dont understand who wanted this..but ive got an idea who found out this. I hope it will be changed cause i really dont want to play with this like many ppl who started in e+.

Yet Another Opinion

New config is all fine and dandy - should reduce spam and shit ...

BUT then please give back the quick switchtime between BFG and GL.
I don't care for spamming or whatnot - make gl damage 0 if you want, but being able to switch between gl (movement) and bfg (attack) fast is IMO necessary for skillfull gaming...

I agree! I don't care if gl is set to 0 damage, but fast switch to make jumps is absolutely necessary. Ol' config for switchtime ! Crying Crying Crying

hey guys whay weapon switch ????

in would be more easyer to put LG nd MG weaker ? and we finish this chat .

1. if MG and lg is weaker is force to use sh and bfg .

2. put railgun like in bro server . ( it's hard to shot someone with it)

3. Im against the switch , but ok to put these two weapons weaker

4. and granades (spam) just configure that is harmles for kill? only for moving on the map ?

5. if this weapon swich will continue , a lot of good players E+ will lose

6. I really hate MG spamers!!! ( destroy all my skills Happy )
