well, as long as you dont get bounced off things i'd say its WAY better then CSS! :)

w00t, HL2 DM!!! GRAV GUN FEST

Re: Half Life 2 Death Match !!!
 

HL2 DM seems to suck.. connected to several servers with pings of about 20, all players inside have like, 300..

Those figures seem to be consistant with all servers i have tried.. Seems that not using multiplayer physics significantly increases latancy.. become a lag fest rather than a grav fest :/

Re: Half Life 2 Death Match !!!
 

Even if its laggy over internet, theres always LAN.

Edit:
Just played it, and yead its laggy for me too, especially when you try to pick things up and throw them. My ping is low, but it still feels laggy. Its not so bad that its unplayable at least.

Heyyo,

Heh, I got it, played with it a lot, and it works a lot better. The bounce thing of CS: Source could be easily fixed, just make it so when players ram into objects they don't affect it at all, this bounce idea's the worst...

Well, the physics aren't really split up by singleplayer and multiplayer, I should've phrased that better. They're split up more by like, complexity. CS: Source is very simple, very weak due to bouncing, while HL2DM is much more complex, and does take much more calculations n' stuff, probably what's resulting in these higher pings caused by massive amounts of calculations and synchonization. Don't forget, HL2DM isin't complete people, but at least it's playable.

I played with a bud, and I was getting a ping of 72 and I had a pretty easy time catching objects that he threw at me... it was even funner to whip barrels at him and set them off with a revolver though. I also tought him that you can grab nades and whip them back at people, apparently this concept never came to him cause he whipped a few nades at me, and I grabbed one at my feet, shot it near him, and it bounced up into his face and exploded, it was soo beautiful. :)

Oh, one fun thing to do is for that 1st map on the list? forget the name, but for the rocketlauncher little room? if you bud's in there, plug in the fan, it's fun. I got me bud while he was in there, I could hear him rustling aboot kicking around objects. :)

Oh, PMB, HL2DM is a separate download, so if you wanna try HL2 without having to download the whole 2GB of SP? you can download the MP portion at least. ;)

Re: Half Life 2 Death Match !!!
 

It ain't bad but is very laggy or something, get framerates higher than 30 fps most of the time but it's still pretty laggy or seomthing, it certainly doesn't feel like 30 fps

Re: Half Life 2 Death Match !!!
 

I can't download Hl2DM? i think you need HL2 first....

Re: Half Life 2 Death Match !!!
 

yeap, same here :(
guess I'll have to feel these 2 gigabytes sticked up my ass anyhow

:) :) :) o_O :'( :'( :'(

Re: Half Life 2 Death Match !!!
 

HL2 DM download was only 30 megs, so its not too surprising you need HL2.
