Codrut August 6, 2012 Share Codrut GC Coalition Member August 6, 2012 (edited) There are several wanna be ak pro like me . After the update, the price raise from 6 points to 8. At first look issnt that much. But it took me 3-4 maps to realize, that if you face a good team and you have some poor weapons and you simply suck with the awp (i do), then 8 points are a lot. I would like to make a vote, sadly there is no pool you can make. Do you want the ak to drop to 6 points again? Maybe we convince Jackie . Thank you Edited August 6, 2012 by samurai nightling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterTalpa August 6, 2012 Share MasterTalpa Member August 6, 2012 Honestly, I think the ak should be more expensive. That's all I'm seeing now is aks with laser sights. That gun just demolishes the infected, and in capable hands, you can solo a tank with that gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samurai nightling August 6, 2012 Share samurai nightling Member August 6, 2012 I agree with Talpa. 8 points to me seems minimal, though the AWP is only 8 points so unless we want to up both to 10, i say keep it at 8. 6 Is just dirt cheap in my eyes, for such a powerful gun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookback August 6, 2012 Share Lookback Member August 6, 2012 I am ok with 10 points for AK and AWP. Surv is overpowered anyways 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerkoff August 6, 2012 Share Jerkoff Member August 6, 2012 (edited) You what's a real slap in the groin? Buying a gun only to find it at a stock pile in the next 50 feet ahead. But yes, AK being 8 points is more than justify. AWP is undoubtedly harder to use, it shouldn't cost more than the AK.

I think the awp is fine where it's at. Edited August 6, 2012 by MasterTalpa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieChan August 6, 2012 Share JackieChan GC Alumni August 6, 2012 Honestly, I think the 8 point price for the AWP is fine. You have to be a crack shot with it to skeet airborne infected and it's still not as viable as the AK47. The AK47 on the other hand I feel deserves an even higher price tag. There could be a further nerf where only a certain number of people can have an AK47, just like the AWP restriction that Retro has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 2 players per team can use an awp... Don't think this works though, since the round-based play, with spendable cash is non-existent in l4d2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinkadeus August 7, 2012 Share Cinkadeus Member August 7, 2012 I'm more concerned with getting it back to 1-3-4-1 instead of this new 1-3-3-1. THAT'S what's important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baloosh August 7, 2012 Share Baloosh Member August 7, 2012 Re-binding keys isn't that hard. Just a new command for each key. Speaking of which, Yuri emailed me a custom script that adds a BUNCH of commands and binds keys to various things in L4D2... I gotta quit being lazy and test that out soon.

Socks August 8, 2012 Share Socks Member August 8, 2012 (edited) Anything that nerfs the survivors is a step in the right direction. In addition to the recent price hikes we should consider one or more of following things. Start with tier 1 weapons every around. No free weapons or at least no infinite weapon piles. No free melee weapons or desert eagles. No ammo piles. At least one tank on every round. And last but not least grande launchers should cost one kazillion points. All aboard the pain train! Choo-choo! Edit: Few more things before I go to bed: Jockey spawns should go up to 11. Enable all talk. Edited August 8, 2012 by Socks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samurai nightling August 8, 2012 Share samurai nightling Member August 8, 2012 We aren't enabling all talk. That would take away completely from one team trying to strategize over the other. Admins have the ability to toggle it on/off and you notice we pretty much never toggle it on? There's a reason for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masgnoh August 8, 2012 Share Masgnoh Member August 8, 2012 honestly, ak's the only gun i'm any good at so until i can buy me an ak... i'm pretty much dead weight. Seriously. I run through the map trying my absolute hardest to save up points to buy an ak, like there are times that untouchable are the points i need to buy me an ak. i suck without it it's painful when people us !np early in the round, i need those points!! There could be a further nerf where only a certain number of people can have an AK47, just like the AWP restriction that Retro has. I down vote this, it's just weird. Looking past the weird feeling, it would pretty much force people to have a secondary preferred gun (m4) and if that's restricted too, then a third and so forth. And people will keep picking the same guns for secondary and third, ask me, why did i ever start using the ak? Answer: Because General uses it. So I'll also shamelessly copy his secondary and third........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socks August 9, 2012 Share Socks Member August 9, 2012 Keeping things on topic, I am a newb and I never had trouble earning points. If you are desperate for points, just heal someone; Even if they are in the green. You still get your 4 points. Also silence Uzi, period. Only silenced Uzies brings all the boys to the yard.
