hi, does somebody hear me?
years pass by but true love is alive

but i have a question (if you hear me)

can you explain what happend to the old plus.cfg?
all these new health & armor needs make the game too difficult for me
did old configs of freedom disappear in forgotten past? do i understand this right

Re: hello 2nd, a question

Hi old Joy Division friend.

Plus was fucked with the new mod, one reason being Fala and his desire to balance the game (plusN is about as unbalanced as it can get unfortunately). The second being the bugged mod (projectiles, bfg splash etc). If you play one of the plus derivatives you will see it's nothing really close to the real thing. One part is the overly complex CFG system that noone really got into I guess.

Keep your fingers crossed for the new mod being released. Should play better there.

Re: hello 2nd, a question

y0 nowings, plus.cfg is outdated due to fala/mow dropping development of it and continuing plusN which is supposed to give a more professional gameplay, but ends up giving more tactics and dropping skill.

Re: hello 2nd, a question

hi Mircwar!

do you mean plus.cfg became impossible in newer versions of mod becouse of new bugs and features?
and i should hope that coming version will restore the things to its places

unfortuanly it's very unlikely to happen that computer program returns to its roots (old versions style) after huge changes. beside that there was no version of e+ that worked fine ) our developers increase features instead of just cleaning last bugs (i can understand them though: they love the thing)

what really saddens me are conceptual changes in gameplay.
entering items and killing health increase make players not equal anymore. now i have to care about health, i can't move as free as i want anymore. i have no reason to play interestingly and freely anymore. i have to become professional player who cares about the result instead the beauty.
what i loved in the game is going away now.

...
as to balance, plus.cfg was pretty balanced imo. spammers and campers did not annoy me: at first, no spammer can oppose good rail, at second, powerful camping is a style, that demands skill. so if you have skill and prefer camping it means you don't feel the beaty and if you don't feel the beaty... well, having fun in feeling the beaty is not for low heart persons )

Re: hello 2nd, a question

hey, nw. try plusC.cfg on aim+ freeze server. camel - the author of the cfg - claims that it is much closer to original plus.cfg than plusN is. armor doesn't prevent you from dying after getting hit with rail, and health is slowly regenerating when it is below its limit.

Re: hello 2nd, regret for old plus.cfg

Just a word of advice, due to the mod physics etc don't behave the same. It's not old plus 1.03.

You summed it up perfectly in your last post btw.

Re: hello 2nd, regret for old plus.cfg

very thx, situation is clear for me now.
not the best times imo, but whatever happens, thx god, we live and evolve ..)

plusC gives hopes, but aim server is empty almost all the time. part of evolution maybe.

anyway 1.02b with nh's configs was truly the best

Re: hello 2nd, regret for old plus.cfg

all styles can be cistomized in plusN, at least the moment i have gived it in hands of developers

about the things u do talk mircwar, like it is unbalanced? its just a lol... with a help of a lot of people everything was recalculated and the proper order was given back, the curent state of the config is a effect of Yours suggestions and some others guys, and because everyone wanted to make changes in it only that suits them personally i have dropped the development, so give me a break...

I am addicted to life.
