omg

so what he just got banned 4 macro not 4 wallhack orsometing

calm down
mabye he learnd that he wont do it aigan lol

Technically he got banned for no recoil. He was just using a known macro to try to do it.

We don't ban people just because others say he's a banned player. We have no links so we can't ban him. Spanky being here would change nothing. Spanky wasn't event he person that originally banned Resistence.

Should be activated now.

Honestly there is no list so I can't tell you what else will be updated. I recently just started school again so I don't have as much time as I did in the summer. I wouldn't get your hopes up for some more 32 slot maps, but we'll see.

The difference isn't between an advantage the difference is between a "cheat/hack" vs a "glitch/exploit".

And that difference doesn't matter at all when talking about gaining an unfair advantage.

The smoke isn't a poor reason. I understand that you can't fix it, but the point I'm making players are knowingly using it to gain an advantage, one that is more useful than being able to quick swap. Why shouldn't you also punish these players? 

How are we going to punish them? It's impossible to do effectively and you know it. You're arguing just for the sake of arguing here. I'll also reiterate that why does one thing not being punished for mean another thing shouldn't be? Smoke grenades through walls and quickswap are 2 completely separate issues and should be treated as such. This thread is about quickswap, focus on that.

I haven't denied that it gives an advantage. I'm just saying that most players know how quick swap works and accounts for it while playing. I can't tell you the last time someone killed me in game because they quick swapped.

Again, this isn't really a reason to not get rid of it. " A lot of people know how to use it" is a poor argument.

I believe it actually enhances CQC battles, it makes them more engaging and dynamic. It would be interesting to see if other players feel the same way.

At least here you come up with some sort of argument to keep it around. I disagree with the notion that is enhanced cqc though. If anything I think it takes some of the planning out of an encounter and makes it rely more on switching weapons on the fly, which isn't really the point of AA. I guess it all depends on what you want the style of play to be.
I think it's ridiculous to suggest keeping in an exploit because people like to use it.

I did say that your not altering the game or modifying game files. I thought that would be clear enough to distinguish between hacking and something like quickswap.

The "realism" argument isn't very good for getting rid of it either.

Nothing in that says realistic or implies that the game was created for realism. Just don't lose sight that this is a game for entertainment. Small things like quickswap make the game more engaging because it speeds up an already slow game without doing any real harm. You can die just as much using quickswap as you can without, but its the feeling of speed people are after.

I saw what you wrote about altering the game, but that doesn't make your opinion any more reasonable. What about pokes? Those were built in console commands to cheat. No external hack needed. I don't understand why altering game files makes any  difference. You're looking for an advantage either way.
 If all you have is "everyone has the possibility to do it" maybe you need to find some better reasons for keeping it.
I don't care about realism. Not everyone knows how to do it, it's just another thing that makes the game harder to get into for some players. If we can make the game even a little bit more level it's a win.
It is not supposed to be a part of the game. The devs removed it (at least the way to do it everyone uses on 2.5) from later versions for a reason. If people want a faster game (which quickswap is negligible anyways when it comes to speeding up the game) they can go play a faster game. There's no reason we should compromise what AA should be to satisfy a market the game was never meant for.

Unless the enemy quickswaps...

Even then the rusher still has the advantage. Quick swap isn't exactly instantaneous. And the player has to register that you're rushing.
