    You can play any HL mod in third person. So it doesnt come as a shock to me. Usually buggy as hell though..

    No I'm not... You can use this as a skulk to see around corners and when you have a 3rd person view it's much much easier to see marines around you and chomp them. It's not a joke!

    I sincerely hop devs remove ALL scripting and these 3rd person commands etc. from NS. They ruin the mod.

    3rd persion view can be removed without any problem. But you can't remove scripting.

    OGC is a cheat, your console thing is an exploit. IT GIVES UNFAIR ADVANTAGE TO PLAYERS THAT USE IT SO PLEASE LIMIT THESE EXPLOITING PLAYERS AND REMOVE THIS ****' POST.

    OGC = Cheat

    3rd person = Script

    One is preventable, one isn't. All you can go for with scripting is damage limitation. All online gaming with the sort of openess the HL engine shows, requires something of a definition of 'fair play'. Some people don't understand that.
  • HEAD_d_bHEAD_d_b Join Date: 2003-02-01 Member: 12967Members
    3rd person = command
    not a script


    whats the point in hideing it if they want to cheat they will find a way to

    if u are not ment to use it why put it in?




    note: i dont acutaly use it as it is some much trouble haveing to reconect and does not give u an advantage anyway
  • ThansalThansal The New Scum Join Date: 2002-08-22 Member: 1215Members, Constellation
    , if you think it aint an advantage, go play JKII, or Rune, or any melee game, now one person plays in 1st and the other in third, who do you think has the advantage?

    and yes, this can be VERY simply be locked down by admins (almost any command can be locked down by admins, as voogru if you don't believe)
    also, the best if if you are running a server that can run comands on the clients side, all you do is run the revers script so that whene ever some one tries to connect you run the script on them and they are screwed.

    because FLAYRA DID NOT PUT IT IN!!
    You are not ment to use it, same as r_drawviewmodels, it is being locked down.

    Personaly I think that 3rd person should be in for skulks, but seeing how as the game is not tested with this then it is an unbalancing factor!

    That just isn't an answer. That sort of thinking is like saying we should have a God mode toggle on the main menu, as some people will want to do it. That's what Blizzard did for Diablo I, and it did them no favours. It's what Origin let happen with Ultima Online at first, and it lead to several characters dominating the game, whilst everyone else wandered about, Peon like.

    The goal is to make any form of 'exploiting' as difficult as possible, to minimise the damage said exploits will have on the community. Hence why so many people have issues with CS, because it's rife with it, or at least it has been.

    Yeah, I agree with Thansal. It's a cool idea, as long as it's open to ALL. If it's not, you have the double issues of

    A) Some people will be just simply 'better' because they know about this command and others don't.

    B) It's currently untested for the game at the moment. If it is to be allowed, it needs to be tested for purposes of what other effects you get (such as the viewing through walls thing)

    Thanks for pointing out this exploit so it can be fixed in future versions, my friend.

    For the rest of you... <span style='color:green'>*** dumps a liquid nitrogen bomb on the thread***</span>
