/vr/ - Retro Games

your fault for not getting the power weapons

>>6212261
its good but not balanced. Opposing force deathmatch is better but people play on those servers less because they just want to spam tou cannon.

>>6212261
Arena FPS was a mistake.

>>6212261
>muh balance
Zoom zoom zoom!

>>6213663
untrue

>>6213667
now THIS anon is the one who should go back to /v/. Play HL Deathmatch and clim its balanced. Talk is cheap

How cares about balance? Half life deathmatch is about zipping around with the gauss gun popping fuckers in the head with the revolver

>>6212261
How is it not balanced when everyone starts with the same weapons?

>hurr what is level design

>>6212261
I find that poorly balanced games can be more fun than perfectly balanced games because they promote creativity in playstyles and provide genuine obstacles to overcome. Perfectly balanced games often lack a certain amount of personality and chaos, as a result they can feel sterile and boring quickly, while poorly balanced games have that chaotic element that keeps the game feeling fun and fresh.

The spawns are random. It's perfectly balanced.

>>6214567
Only a zoomer could think such a thought. HL was really fucking good when it came out, in large part due to the mod scene as well.

>>6214567
this movie was fucking garbage

>>6215112
Dude chill, he doesn't actually say that.

>>6214567
better than doom.
Now that's overrated.

>>6215109
It's an edit, the original meme said Half Life 2 (which actually is overrated) and they just cut out the 2 to make it /vr/.

>>6215179
>one of the best-selling games of all time
>the game that literally saved PC gaming from drowning in mediocre flightsims and turn-based dungeon crawlers
>the game that proved the viability of online competitive play
>the original eSport, so superbly balanced that it's still being played competitively nearly 30 years later
>overrated

Now THAT'S a fucking hot take.

>>6215413
no vanilla doom is fucking boring compared to other fps games.

>retarded zoomers think baby first retro fps game saved PC gaming.
Sad.

>>6215419
>vanilla doom is fucking boring
Maybe it's boring because you suck at it? Show me some of your deathmatch replays and then tell me it's "boring."

>>6215426
why don't you play an actual skillful multiplayer fps game like quake or unreal?.
Why don't you doombabies stay in your general instead of shitting up other fps games?.

>>6215413
>the original eSport
Not even close. The oldest multiplayer video game that's still being played competitively today is probably Tetris. Pic related, it's an adorably nerdy gamer boy basking in the starlight of a true e-athlete.

>>6215439
>why don't you play an actual skillful multiplayer fps game like quake?
Erm, doesn't this kind of undermine your point?

If you're trying to argue that Doom is overrated and not hugely influential, you probably shouldn't be mentioning Quake.

>>6215440
kys tranny.

>>6212261
Balance is boring and for nerds.

Why can't you just make a Half-Life thread without prepping it with bait. Everyday this place becomes more like /v/.

>>6215703
there was a good one last week.
>>/vr/thread/S6172368

>>6215703
Threads that aren't spiced up with a little bait usually 404 fast.

>>6214626
>getting spawnfragged over and over and over and over again by the same nigger(s) abusing gauss gun without a chance of fighting back
yes, poorly designed games are way more fun than properly balanced shooters.

Give up, OP Half Life and it's mods are based.
It's sad you are still doing this years later.

>>6215703
What bait?

>>6215439
The fuck are you talking about? Deathmatch in Doom is way more brutal than in Unreal. Also Quake is a non-argument since it's just an upgraded version of Doom.

>>6215941
Delusional.

>>6215941
lol

>>6215726
No they dont
You're just retarded, literal (you) addicted teenage cancer killing this shitty board
Fuck off

>>6215703
Because it gets some whiney loser rambling about /v/ which is what OP wants.

>>6212261
Hello? Contrarian Department?
Yes I'd like to report a cringe and bluepilled

>>6212261
who cares, we got cs because of it

>>6212261
Fuck the casual bait.
Tell the thread what mods you are playing/replaying right now, and what you think about them.
