having posted this, i just got on and...i gotta say it's not as bad as i had expected.

The update is not really that bad. I just can't play on the IBIS servers cause it needs a restart for the update.

ZERO, your move.

heard they'd restart around 7 ET. not sure if it's true but yeah

"Fixed firing of "stale" burst mode bullets on glock and famas."

Is a stale round when you burst someone in the chest from 3 feet away yet somehow only get two hits? because that would be swell.

Yes. Hopefully no more "WTF one reg?! I bursted to your face! rada rada rada!."

This update does not seem half bad to me... People got so use to the "new" weapons they forgot they were actually broken to begin with... lol

[brett friggin favre]

yeah basically movement is punished, standing still is rewarded. the crosshairs more accurately represent the bullet spread....i was worried but really i feel it's taking luck outta the game to a certain extent which is nice

We'll see how this plays out. While I agree that Valve shouldn't make drastic changes to the game, it is nice to have a company that cares enough to make updates/bug fixes for a game that is 7 years old.

I am a little concerned for the following updates:

• All rifles are less accurate while running
• Decreased range of shotguns, while slightly increasing damage
• Pistols no longer continuously spam weapon_fire event when the +attack key is pressed. (This has the side effect of no longer allowing the glock to continuously auto-fire in burst mode).

I do however look forward to:

• All weapons are now more accurate while crouching
• Slightly increased damage of m249
• Increased accuracy of zoomed sg552
• Dynamic crosshair now uses actual weapon accuracy, rather than a separate simulation

killing friendly players no longer increments the player stat for kills with enemy weapons

booooooooooo!!!!
