When a sniper goes into scope and moves, he appears to flicker. Anything BHS can do about this? (Once again, I know it doesn't happen when you're the host)

snipers would be to easy to hit when if this is fixed
but then again it is very annoying when you get people who overflicker

It's probably due to the pissy network code. It's definetly got something to do with it, since it only happens if you aren't the host.

So what if they would be easy to hit? Why should they be given even more fucking advantages?

ACK, this is for you man. I think you need some music to cheer you up.

Justin Timberlake - Cry Me a River

Cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river
(You can go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Cause I've already cried)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

The only one I see here is me, and I'm not discussing anything. If you were referring to yourself, a better term to use might be "child," or maybe "adolescent" or "prepubescent" depending on your stage of life. No adult would have a DBZ avatar, therefore you are disqualified.

I don't see why ACK opposes this. Aren't snipers meant for killing infantry (in this case, other snipers) instead of orcas and stuff.

Personally, I could care less about the issue. I have grown accustomed to the lag and if they are really laggy, I just shoot and hope I hit them. This case only happens when two people are moving parallel dodging the bullets. If this happens, move to a better spot and get angles. Smile Wink

That's because they want the advantage the bug gives them. Much like why a lot of people opposed fixing the MRLS base to base issue on Islands.

As I said before - he probably has a vested interest in maintain such an unfair balance. :rolleyes:

It is a bug, just like the sniper damage - it should go.

I would whole-heartedly love to see the flickering fixed. It defeats a lot of the purpose of sniping (hiding) when you can flicker back and forth and evade gunfire like you're mutha-fuckin Neo and shit. Smile

I'm the bawss.

Coming from someone with mad grammar skillz like yourself, I take that as a compliment. Any other 'insults' you'd like to try are welcome, I find this amusing.

Grammar doesn't always equate to intelligence, it's a fallacy in logic to come up with that conclusion.

Good grammar != intelligence, but bad grammar = a lack of intelligence. Someone who cannot be bothered to communicate properly doesn't care about their message in the first place, meaning they place little value on communication. Since communication is the conveyance of knowledge, someone who places little value on one doesn't care for the other either, meaning that someone who can't communicate properly is most likely an idiot.

Not really. If Einstien attempted to speak Indian, you think bad grammar in that makes him unintelligent? It just means he's ignorant when it concerns that language, not that he's an idiot.

With your example, you say two different things. You say grammar is one factor in how you're going to judge others, and you say that communicating properly is another way to judge their intelligence.

Looking at the fact that he got his point across with "Your an idiot," and it was perfectly legible... I can only believe that you're contradicting yourself.

i don't care much about grammer.. sometimes i put it in posts sometimes i dont.. depends how i feel at the time

its quite sad how much you care about your grammer.. maybe you can put the grammer in yourself while you read.. if you as clever as you make out

also when this flickering on the snipers is fixed.. your gonna regret sniping against me ^_^

Unfortunately in this case, English is his primary language, and he still isn't getting it right.

I see your point, but as it relates to this topic, it's irrelevant.


Oh, and yes. Please do fix the flicker bug. I find it very counter-productive to rely on firing a bunch of rounds, and hoping I hit. If I wanted to do that I would purchase an MLRS.
