Well this was the games forum so I thought i'd post it here and be flamed here.

Ok, yeah its fun and I guess it can't be perfect but:

-Desert Eagle .50: most retarded gun in game. Only in here for people think the DE is "Uber-l33t" and teh c00l3st gun evar. Now it shows up in ever f'ing game made. It is SOOO out of place in the game. I think all the other guns have some possibility of being used by CT's or T's. There isn't a CT or Terrorist alive who is going to use a damn Desert Eagle. It is NOVELTY, basically worthless... I guess you really couldn't know unless you've seen, handled, and fired one. Huge, heavy, shiny, fireball, recoil, noise, small mag.
The only time it is even anywhere close to be fun to shoot in .357 magnum when the weight tames a lot of that recoil. Ok end of that rant


...next b!tchfest:

-Weapon models: Couldn't the designers have put the ejection ports on the right side of the guns? The game looks so good but this bugs me. I guess it is like this so it doesn't look at plain and you can see the action move? The ejection port would never throw shells in front of your face (unless your left handed). I still thing you could see shells spray if they came out the right side. I suppose there are some correct skins out for this in CS:S I need to look.


last but not least:

-Reloading: Whats the deal with cocking the M-4 everytime you reload? That isn't necessary you just hit the bolt release. If any gun needs this it is the AK, have to fully cock the thing everytime you reload.


Not that anyone is going read this or anyone even gives a sh!t but I had to get it off my chest and I feel better now.


Cliff note: DE is stupid, models are lame, reloading inaccurate - your right, who gives a crap

thanks,

First:

It's just a game. Everyone likes the deagle. As carl would say, it's frickin awesome!

Although personally I'd go with a fiveseven on CT or dual berettas on T instead, deagle only has 7 round clips. If it only takes on bullet to kill someone, I want 20 chances to do it, not 7.

Second:

The animations and looks is all for effect, not to be accurate for real life.


Cliff note: It's just a game, meant for entertainment not education.
