IF you plan to host a game using SS

Note that only people that have upgraded to SS can play on your server.

If you use the original game exe and host with that, people who haven't upgraded can play along with the people using SS

So I suggest if you plan on hosting a game, you use the original exe file to play with :)

Ok fair point.

It depends I guess, If you want more players on your server, use the original H&D

If you want the new gear, use SS


I will be using H&D because Clanbase doesn't incorparate the new gear anyway :p

clanbase... uhhhh... :evil:
burn them BURN THEM ALL!!
uhmm i mean... heh..eh

whawt i mean is theyre rules really sucks, considering its a ladder independent of hd2 but they just choose that its not allowed with 3rd person view. this makes most hd2 servers without 3rdpersonview, something wich really is a shame....

I don't like 3rd person.

It means people can peek round corners without showing themselvees and kill you unexpectedly, which I think is hardly realistic

in fact somehow 3rdperson view is more realistic, if you look at the point that u have no idea were your legs are pointing, nor have you got any idea if a enemy comes sneaking up on you from behind.
you do notice when someone try to sneak up on you from behind, u just feel it, believe me i know.
though i agree with you on the fact that peeking around corners are unrealistic as well BUT! u will never be able to look a little around the corner as a carefull little peak, u have to stick your head out, not hidden but dangerous... :wink:
in real life you can just carefully glitch out with your one eye, something wich, as said is impossible on games.

and for gods sake please do remember the title of the game hidden and dangerous... it kinda makes 3rdpersonview a must... staying hidden... seeing you .... always... :P


anyway bottom line: i understand why you find it unrealistic but i think we got enough 1stpersonshooters... and hidden and dangerous IS 3rdpersonview. :roll:

8) You have my fully support, Alexander. :)

I have also discussed this "peeking around the corner" issue with friends, and a solution could be, if they somehow integrate a "field of view" or "line of sight".
Meaning, that when you try to do this trick you will not see what's around the corner unless you stick your head out - which is fairly well done in H&D2 to my opinion. On the other hand you will see whoever comes trying to sneak up on you from the side or behind as long as you have a line of sight when you turn your head around.

you make a good point about knowing where the rest of your body is.

But usually it's underneath you! :-p


Seeing as I play in an active clanbase clan, I am going to keep on practicing to their rules I guess :)

Suddenly this subject turned into a "3rd person view" chat:P Well.. gotta tell u this .. it's even more fun with 3rd p view.. u can look on your uniform, your gear, how your uniform/camuflage works, take cool pictures:), and it's easier to drive vehicles.. =) and as alexander said "dont we got enough 1st person view shooters" , i agree.. this game is MENT to use 3rd person view!!

And for the record.. our server will use it :D hehe :lol: :wink:
