Current server in Toronto. Most people's routing does not go to Toronto easily.

You want Washington or New York servers. Washington servers would help NA West Coast players out the best, while it should still provide excellent server to the Europeans. Washington routes well to Paris and to London. Washington will also give the best possible experience to Australians playing against Europeans, because australia routes through LA, and LA routes better to Washinton instead of New York.

All of this analysis is based off what the picture shows.

We can all agree Toronto is a retarded location.

Swalk, how many times can a man or a woman write the word "viewmodels" per month? :D

I know you disabled them too Ryssk. You can try to count how many times a man can stand up for fair play, good idea.

Thats the point swalk the viewmodel ain't a paid option.

White skulk skins on mezzanine are harder to spot than shadow ones.

Are male/female hitboxes exactly the same?
Last time I asked on the slack even dragon wasnt totally sure and said there might be a difference.

A ns+ option could be cool but there might be more important things atm, and it wouldn't cover the hitboxes problem if it exists.

So you admit that the only reason viewmodels is "ok" is because "it's available to everyone/you don't have to pay for it"? Well, we've had a few instances of cheating bans including aimbot and wallhack. Those are probably available for everyone if you search your browser for it and they probably don't cost money either. But none of us think that is okay, or do you?
Removing viewmodels is essentially similar to a wallhack and serves the purpose of giving you a much greater and clearer field of vision. Pure advantage and should be considered a cheat in the league. A good league is focused on fair play and keeping the amount of questionable modifications to an absolute minimum, that is not the case with NSL and viewmodels. I think only HUD modifications should be deemed okay, because viewmodels are very questionable, especially for aliens. It is still considered a cheat and is not available on most public servers with ns2+ - remember wallhacks dont increase your accuracy, which was your main "proof" of getting it allowed, right? But they sure do help you make you see your targets easier and that is why so many people disabled them for aliens especially, since it's a pretty good advantage when you are trying to bite a marine to not have the viewmodels obscure your vision from about 15% up to about 75%(that amount of obscurity from the viewmodel during combat is not in any other competetive game that I know of and I think it is a skill to work around it and still keep track of your targets) of the screen, when the mouth of the skulk is "closed".

White skulks have trouble hiding in the dark. Tradeoff.

What I remember from when female marine were implemented, they were said to have the same hitbox as the male marine because of the obvious problem that the model is smaller and it would ruin balance. Not sure why that should be changed for any reason, but it's a good idea to test it and make sure before doing anything drastic to the rules.

Or is there a way of using like cl_bob 0 like it was in CS 1.6 where you could take away the sway of the weapons?

Holy shit... you really didn't know about camera animation on the first page of UWE's original options?

Ryssk, please tell me you haven't been playing all these years with camera animation on....
