So Valve just recently came out with a super reliable messenger called Steam, I hear it's going to have a sequel to Team Fortress and Half Life on it.
I know a lot of people who get shittons of lag from Steam. mIRC or something would be much better. [/quote]>lagging because of Steam >laughtrack.wmv |

there are several reasons why gg2 would be "laggy" that we really can't fix
though since you guys would rather take bother in opening up mirc on your shitty computers I'd rather not get involved

GG2 2.3 is currently being developed as GG2 2.7, it will feature a cooking minigame for the Overweight, 30 new hats to confront the imminent crisis and challenge valve made to us, which was being responded in valve time, a complete restyle of all characters and maps, support for Linux and Wii, a tenth, eleventh and thirteenth classes and the option to turn on easy mode, which will spawn three bots in the enemy's base who will do nothing but gunspin.

I think you mean hard mode

For those of us with 10+ year old computers, having pretty much anything else open with GG2 running makes ones computer slow to a crawl. And besides, alt+tabing away from the game every time you wanted to say something is rather annoying and slows the compy even more, not to mention it blinds you from what's happening around your character! You could alt+tab away from the game, then hear the tell-tale *wha-click* of a spy, then alt+tab back and have no idea where the spy is! You could say that spychecking would remedy that, but you'd be better at spychecking if you had a general idea of where the spy was in the first place! And there's all sorts of other hazards that could happen when you're not looking at your screen.
Your team could need a medic at the moment, and you wouldn't know because you weren't looking at the screen when you died and saw the massive charge the enemy was pushing in with. It's less annoying, more convenient, and is more helpful to you than switching back and forth between programs! You can't deny that you'd miss something every now and then because you weren't looking at the screen when typing. You could argue that you only type when you're dead, but you could still see a spy decloak, a scout running in, or a wad of enemies breaking through while deathtyping on the chat mod.
Oh, and lacking chat won't kill GG2! HAVING chat installed in vanilla would kill GG2 for a lot of veterans I'd suppose.. the only thing I can think of that would truly hurt the game when Vindi's mod becomes incompatable with the current GG2 would be the lack of banning/kicking options.

Gunspinning is indeed the most powerful ability in the game (except maybe for Q/C)

irc is only there for the organizers to tell you what is going on, like map rotation setup, team setup, server setup, etc. you're never going to have to switch back and forth to chat, nor should you, because that is as intrusive as chatting during game already is (like all the vinmod chatters that stand around chatting, instead of playing).
if you're going to alt+tab to the irc window, it's your own fault for handicapping yourself, because no one should expect on-the-fly strategic calls on irc. ideally, the benefits of handicapping yourself by typing should outweigh the downsides, or at least should only be done when you're respawning; stuff like warning of backcaps, spies, or incoming attacks (i honestly don't see any other use than these three things). if you're going to alt+tab out to type out menial messages in irc, it's entirely your fault if you get killed or miss out on important information.

chat will still exist with that new chatmod, BUT i would HATE to be hosting without my console, classlimits, host features, etc. someone should consider just opening up vinmod and updating it themselves :\
I'll try to get off my delicious ass and learn how, but no promises  this thread grows too fast for me to read it all, but that would be awesome! |
