I must have missed the point of this - what is it?

A guy got knifed... the guy is known to be a pretty good player. So?

I suppose this is what you get when people are STARVED for new NS material, being stuck on the same NS version for MONTHS and all...

Or it could point out the sad state competative NS is in...

Take your pick.

That's unbeliveable, I didn't even know the knife was capable of killing a lerk so fast O.O

I'll take the second option.

The first? Hmm. It doesn't make much sense: From about 2 weeks after a version release, the moans start coming for new material. Yet when a new patch does come out, half a dozen threads are instantly put up complaining about some bug that didn't get fixed, or some new bug that got put in. With the exception of the occassional one, these bugs are there because there wasn't sufficient time in the testing stages before it was released...

So if it's kept back and made good, people whine because they have to wait, yet if it's released quickly, people whine that it has bugs.

as my father told me many years ago;

"Unfortunately people are.. well... people. It's quite likely the problem isn't the subject of the slander, but it's the people slandering"

Doesn't seem like that much in the video, I find this expecially strange because generally speaking when I lerk I can take a whole lmg clip and pistol shot without dying (obviously I'm dodging around, which means alot of those shots are missing, but still)

I was under the impression that the lerk was a fair bit more beefy then that.

itsmemo · February 2005

I seriously dont see the big deal, knife kills arent so great in NS. keep in mind all alien lifeforms are melee. It seems the knife has now become the weapon of ownage in all fps games.

what a waste of time.

2_of_Eight · February 2005

I fail to understand why everyone is still going "ogm, owned" when there has been a perfectly good - and 100% viable - explanation as to the cause of this death. Lag affects everyone, so it happens that he lagged at the wrong time. Calm down, such things happen, oh no.

Haze · February 2005

It was definantly lag and the fact that the marine had at least five health packs dropped for him. Y-Y

tevvan · February 2005

TheMunch8 · February 2005

TBH this is a perfect example of the hit registry code in HL not being able to keep up with what NS wants to do with it. When Albino says he was already in cargo when he died, I trust him. From firsthand experience, lag DOES kill in the HL1 engine. NS is so fast paced, that .2 of a second lag CAN make a difference in a game, and a BIG one at that. Someones rates that makes them jump around constantly CAN make a difference. Some serious works needs to be done to not have this in NS2. It is one of the most annoying things when you KNOW you are around the corner, but the bullet curves and kills you anyway.

Firewater, are you still having animosity towards the forum admins who moved your the thread about your "lung collapse" from general discussion to off topic. We all know your just jealous that this thread hasn't been locked our moved like yours. So please have some considerations for others and please don't let your collapsed lung make decisions for you.

Firewater · February 2005

What are you talking about? What thread are you talking about?

Rammstien · February 2005

Impressive kill on the part of the marine, but I personally have had things like that happen before, but its unfortunate timing that someone was recording it and that a bunch of people were watching.

suckmebeautiful · February 2005

I'm surprised terror recruits the physically challenged.. although you were pretty disabled before the lung collapsing.

Were you recruited into terorr as part of the spread competitive scene into pubs program? Because that would explain your skill level

Renegade. · February 2005

I don't know if it was just the innaccuracy of HLTV, but those knife swipes looked very bullshitty to me. It just didn't seem so "flipping pwned" to me....

p.s. the music was wicked, what song was that? (sounded like something from Scooter)

p.p.s. to combat this, why don't you post a "pwn" video albino <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

suckmebeautiful · February 2005

personal attacks, personal attacks

MrGunner · February 2005

As a guy that also lerks competitively I have to say that is why I not only love high pingers, but love the current knife knockback. Whenever we scrim unaware or another foreign clan I never go in for kills unless I have to because they hit you with damage long after you leave the room that they are in. I'm sure it's just as bad for fades.

Nice knifing on the marines part, but I'm sure only 2 swipes would have hit if it had been even pings.

funbags · February 2005

hey suckme, why don't you just lay off of the personal attacks?

Router_Box · February 2005

you can even see the lag blatantly in that video.

Watch for when the knife swings and then how long it takes for the lerk blood to show up. its about .4 seconds when you acct for both their pings.

You gotta love HPB's shooting you around corners. Celerity fading is interesting when shotty shells follow you around 2 corners.

TheJim · February 2005

Just bad luck tbh unlucky albino

Faskalia · February 2005

Happens,
and btw i got knifed from accross rine start in daimos just the other week. High ping is always hard to keep control of, especially when you are alien.
