Crosshair enabled in options?
- Thread starter Jovial
- Start date
Yeah when I first started playing the mod I was terrified by the lack of crosshair. But I mastered that and I felt like TOTAL BADASS! Then I introduced the mod to my friends I was like "watch this bro 8)". Actually this was the reason for me to start turning off the crosshair in every FPS games except CS and BF. I realized that I simply don't need it anymore. And because of that I feel more powerful somehow. That I can do well without some assisting mechanic.
Why you want to take such unique feature out of such wonderful game is beyond me

Agreed. I can't remember another store released FPS (non-modded) that doesn't have crosshairs. Only this small list:
R01
RO2
KF1
TWI are the masters of "non-crosshair" gameplay

Yeah, they want it brutal, so they won't turn on the crosshair in options.
Not sure I see the problem here.
How is this an issue? People could just mark the center of the screen anyway. It's not like anyone is being hurt by this.
If all of my team choose to enable it, they are actually impacting my gameplay by making the game easier overall.
It's not huge, but it does make it easier. As some have suggested, auto-disable crosshair on anything above Normal difficulty is also a viable solution.
The problem is the inclusion of crosshairs negates the KF flight or fight gameplay. In KF1 you have a choice..Do you run away while firing blindly at the enemy trying to direct your cone of fire or stand ground and fire accurately whilst ADS?
It would seem the inclusion of crosshairs in KF2 removes that core gameplay choice by allowing you to score headshots easily while hipfiring during flight.
That's not the same in the least, is a drawing going to magically spread open when running? Or go smaller for accuracy when you are crouching?
There are actually keys being given out right now via Twitter. However, with thousands of people F5ing, it's hard to snatch a working one.
Honestly I think CS:GO players will appreciate this the most, i'm torn about it though. I have no clue if i'm going to use it or not, power gamer in me says yes, but considering how fun the challenge was in KF1 I say no. It being off in harder difficulties or as a server-side option seem like VERY good compromises.
Jeez, everybody's entitled to having an opinion and expressing it however they like as long as they're not insulting somebody etc. You can comment if you have feedback, you don't have to be all roses and candy. Usually people express their negative feedback more strongly than positive feedback, get over it.
I'm kind of indifferent to this matter but come on, calling others children for having a different opinion is low. Everybody was being perfectly appropriate.
I still find this to be a rather poor argument. As I was discussing with crazyjake in the news thread, there are all sorts of variables that would affect the game in this way. If a skilled zerker joins your pub room and leaves the group, stealing the attention of half the zeds, then they're making the game easier for you too. Or if a better player who has higher perk level than you joins, their access to better team support skills will make it easier. It doesn't mean their freedom to play with you should be limited.
But he did make a good point about the difficulty of balancing the game. I agree that the locking of crosshairs to certain difficulties a reasonable solution as far as I can tell.
That's bull****! Whats the point? Just to piss people off? You know that there are 99999 people willing to pay for the game right damn now! Why they don't want our money? Logic 101
To stress test the servers and to fish for obscure, last minute bugs that the limited number of players who've played the game already may not have experienced. So that when EA launches, you don't have 99999 people complaining about server crashes and weird glitches that no one at TWI or the earlier beta testers have seen before. That's the point.
Still kinda weird to ignore the forums for that. From what the Twitter feed looks like, it's mostly gamer grills and streamers on the receiving end. Maybe that's the point.
