But, that's the best way to do it.

Those are usually my punching kills haha. A reason I love assault is that you have both the gun for normal kills and then punch available without weapon switching for those "OMGPWNED" kills.

Just as an FYI for anyone that doesn't know what a tick rate is:

From Valve: During each tick, the server processes incoming user commands, runs a physical simulation step, checks the game rules, and updates all object states. After simulating a tick, the server decides if any client needs a world update and takes a snapshot of the current world state if necessary. A higher tickrate increases the simulation precision, but also requires more CPU power and available bandwidth on both server and client.

DOD:S defaults your tickrate to 66. If you want to take advantage of Cains improvement you will need to do the following.

In game open your console by hitting ~. If nothing happens when you do, hit escape and go to your options. Under Keyboard tab -> Advanced, select "Enable Developers Console"

Go back in to the game and open your console.

Type:
cl_updaterate 100
cl_cmdrate 100

If you have a computer that is on the boarder line of minimum system requirements for DOD:S I do not recommend you do this. However if you do have a good computer and a fast internet connection I suggest you guys take full advantage of this. Your computer will essentially send and receive more updates from the server helping with ping/fps and all around smoothness of your gaming experience.

Cain, I also suggest putting in your server name (again only suggestion) but put (100tick) this will get peoples attention that you have a quality server.

Thx Twiz, I'll change it now....

All my pistol kills are against stationary targets with their backs turned or reloading .

Not true. I ran up to you the other night and put my big head right in front of your pistol. I didn't last long.

Are Orange maps still as popular as they were 2yrs ago? I remember they were the maps that brought me to DOD

[Twiztednate]

Orange maps are still popular. The problem is the min you change it to a normal map they all leave. Atleast from previous experience they did.
