Should we allow 2 shots?

[n1K]

We staff members were discussing this thing in private, but many of us felt that we should discuss this with you guys. With LWs being on 0.3z, do you guys think that if 2 shot is allowed at LWs, will it hamper the current LW situation furthermore or improve it? Give your thoughts.

No poll is attached to this post to avoid getting fake votes. Replies from only LW regular members will be taken seriously.

Na I wouldn't allow it.

The prohibition of 2 shot is pretty much the last thing making LW unique from other DM servers.

But that uniqueness isn't helping us out, is it?

You should realize that changing this may or may not create a small impact for a short period of time. Anyways on topic , I would say no because of the same reason as bike.

Allowing hacking would also increase player count, doesn't mean it's a good thing


A huge no to 2 shot from me, unless you're around my level at 4 shot, 2 will render it useless and cause plenty of hassle to the loyal regulars who can't two shot

I can't 2 shoot and i don't like it anyways. So, NO from me too.

Okay I thought about this a little more and I came to the conclusion: At this point it doesn't fucking matter.

The basic concept of LW went down the drain a long ass fucking time ago. Imo you should have neither allowed switching nor c-bug. The powerful spawn weapons also suck.

I am not blaiming anybody for anything but I dont think it increased the player count in any way. It only changed LW into something more casual. Fighting felt different and awesome with the LW rules of the past.

And what is the big difference when it comes down to noobs? Regulars will rape noobs, no matter the given weapons. The noob vs. noob balance remains untouched as everybody has the same weapons.

Another aspect: What do noobs think that start with a pistol and are getting raped by sawnoffs? They think "SHIT you bitch, just wait until I get better weapons".
What do noobs think that start with powerful weapons and are getting raped by the same weapons? They think "Meh, you no life /q". They don't even notice that there is more behind the server than spawning and killing with the given weapons.

+1 for downgrading LW to some early version

I don't like 2-shots and quite bad at it, but I believe it would increase the player count. I'd go for a yes

Do you think just because you change one sentence in the server rules more people will join automtically?

Most new people who join dont even read the rules..

noobs can't either 2 or 4 shoot, if the talk is about noobs lol. But atleast, more 2-shooters would join!

How so? You think the news about LW now allowing 2 shot automatically spreads out into the world?

It wont do any difference at all. It will only make LW more annoying as random wannabes will start to train 2 shot.

[Faye]

No it wouldn't, but when 2shots people from some else server join LWs, and find 2shots allowed, they might become regulars in here, and so on.

Random wannabes what?!
Me, you & everyone else can start training on 2-shooting too tho.

I've seen servers getting more than usual count of players after allowing 2-shooting.

I personally know a fair few players who dont play at LWs as 2 shot isnt allowed. Just saying it. But i guess there have been enough votes to discard this thing.

I think we should allow it. It's a mechanism that's built into the game. It's not like it's a hack or a mod from a third party. I also think C-Bug should be allowed, because of the same reason. And, I mean, let's face it...

...You have to be fucking PRO to use either technique effectively. I can C-Bug, but, aim at a moving target in the process? Yeah, forget about it.

[Quickplay]

I never liked it and now that we could finally make the gap between noobs and pros smaller this would make it bigger again. Also too much damage can be done by 2 shots now that aiming has become easy, 2 shots are good for 0.3x not for 0.3z.

it's a big no from me too.
