New HL2 Deathmatch Changes

[SgtSpamBoy]

So, besides the official changelog here, what other changes have people noticed in HL2 Deathmatch after the latest update???

For example:
*They changed the smg grenades so that now they do a standardized 90 hp of damage, rather than dealing more damage when getting a direct hit. I also noticed that the screen shakes when the smg grenade explodes, which personally, I do not like.

*The RPG rocket seems to fire below the barrel of the launcher (from first-person view), making it look strange - has anyone else noticed this?

*The magnum (and possibly other weapons) may have a problem with hit recognition, especially with moving targets (I have not tested it myself yet). It is discussed here. Has anyone else notice this? Setting "cl_interpolate 0" seems to fix the problem, but also makes player models look pretty jerky. With a recent small update, this problem may or may not be fixed.

*The damages of various weapons seems to have been tweaked.


...anything else???

It has always done that. Since HL1.

The rocket drops, then the thruster kicks in.

All the damages are default, except shotgun now does a tad more (to survive a double barrel to head you need 117 suit to survive and 100 hp with exactly 1 hp left, lol) and the SMG nades used to do random damage, now it's a standard damage for direct hits.

Nothing else i've noticed noticed - the hit recognition is fixed now, too

I have the Magnum problem. I aim at their head while they are moving and miss most of the time. When they are standing still, no problem.

what does the restartgame command actually do?

It seems to me that hitting people using the pulse rifle or mp7 shots is a little harder, as if the hitbox got smaller.

I have noticed what you said about the shotty's blasts being more powerful. I seem to be killing more and more opponents with it. And considering that its my #1 weapon of choice above everything else, i'm quite pleased
