Knowing it's gonna be a little late to put into Beta 3, but could there be any way of selecting your model in the Multiplayer options rather than having to change it from the default every time you go into a new map?

This is already implemented. When you choose your character it saves that choice in your user settings when you EXIT THE GAME correctly much like a bind x "to this" command is saved. Then the next time you come in, it'll auto select the character you  had last saved. Teamplay kinda messes this up because it forces characters on each team to be chosen and if you fav was bond and you are on Janus, well... you will auto select boris (1st Janus Character). Minor inconvenience, but it works 100% of the time if you play non-teamplay only and its really easy to choose your character in the VGUI.

Edit: Squeeky wheel be-greased. 

Still, need three cvars so DM and TDM model preferences are retained.

Scratch what I said earlier, I implemented VC's gripe

one thing i dont really like is where your pickups are displayed with the kill ticker. if you could move them to the other side of the screen or bottom right.

and another thing about the ticker is to have the colors team based like in cs. cant really keep track of your team without actually reading.

thanks and kick some more ass!!

You know what you guys need to do as far as extra random characters goes?  Create characters with the Goldeneye: Source developers' and mappers' (and etc) faces, just like Rare did with Goldeneye 64

That is what we are going to do actually ... For as many as we can fill up. We don't have enough developers to put a face on each of the 30+ 'extra' characters there are. So who knows, maybe we'll start taking community members faces

[SDFprowler]

Awesome!  I always thought the extra characters who were modeled after the developers brought a good personal, down-to-earth touch to the game.

If you need my face, I'll gladly put up a picture.

I don't know if this is a known issue yet and whether or not this source engine specific or GE:S specific problem but certain individuals have some kind of spam-bot and keep repeatedly spamming a paragraph of what looks like an East-Asian language.

It is clearly spam because it comes and goes so quickly no one could read it without bringing up the dev console. Furthermore I know that one particular individual his/her native language is definitely not any East Asian language and I highly doubt that this person has suddenly learnt an East Asian written language all of a sudden.

Apart from being very annoying what is worse is for some reason it makes the game for others severely lag or freeze for a couple seconds, I spoken to others who have been around while it is happening and they say they are getting the same thing as me.

You can tell this is intentional and It is very frustrating so please try to investigate this.

Note, I do have East Asian language support installed for Windows XP but I do not wish to un-install it just to prevent the game freezing up often because some b***** is intentionally spamming. Is there a way to disable other languages being displayed in source games?

     I believe this happens when people have to many "Character Map" letters in there name, or just certain ones.
      Cause did have this problem early yesterday, but when he changed his name, problem was gone. So if it happens again, check the names in the server and ask them to change there name..... if not, get a admin and have the admin do it for them! cause it does lag the server.

I don't think this is the case, one individual is doing it without changing their GE:S MP name. Even when I kindly ask to stop doing it they don't and sometimes they increase the amount of spamming.

This is not like a few words, I'm talking about a paragraph of text.

[Rodney 1.666]

I always wondered about that myself...
Was never a problem for me, though. It wasn't too terribly frequent. The game would pause for a half a second and "a paragraph of what looks like an East-Asian language" would appears and then go away in two seconds. (Or something close to that.)
Never stayed longer than that.

f there name has the charcter maps in it then every time they kill/die it will most the time freak out the server. And if they type it will do the same. Untill they remove the special letters it will freak out, next time try to get them to change there name. Atleast that was the same issue yesterday.

remember VC explained this before, some todo with the source engine, maybe a programmer can explain more.
