I think what needs to be done is that when someone dies near one of the spawns, that particular spawn is rendered inaccesible by for about 3 - 5 seconds to allow the killer to get away and that the particular person who was killed spawns on the other side of the map so it doesn't break up the flow of action for the victim

This is impossible, with any real amounts of people that would render all spawn points invalid in the first 10-15 seconds of play. You are just going to have to deal with it, thats what a multiplayer game is all about. There is already code in place that places you in the "least populated" spawn spot (not 100% assured). Of course I could make sure you would spawn in the most OPTIMAL spot every time, but every spawn would be an enormous waste of computing power.

well I would think that atleast making it so the person who died spawns on the other side of the map rather than behind you would be good. or just make the radius around "the least populated spawn point" bigger, specifically on Ge Caves where that kept on happening to me.

I can live with turning off the auto pick up but something does need to be done with the spawn system, granted its much better than it was in 3.0 where it was just "okay good I've finally spawned, "Kavinsky sucided" because someone spawned on top of me, and then they suicided and now he suicided and on and on.

Rig it up so that we can tell when someone on a lower or higher level can see us or atleast when there aiming at you

and do something about the weapon sets when everyone but you has an ar33 and you've only got a lousy klobb is a no brainer whos going to kill who

Kavinsky, we appreciate feedback, but we are not inclined to listen to people who impose their will

but something does need to be done with the spawn system

Rig it up so that we can tell when someone on a lower or higher level can see us or atleast when there aiming at you

do something about the weapon sets

Just because YOU have a problem with it, doesn't mean the rest of our community does. We make our decisions based on global gameplay impacts and the community, not on a single person's viewpoint (except VC).

Sorry I didn't mean it like that, I was just a little pissed, I just played on one of the servers with a map with a lot of upwards walkways and I kept getting shot in the ass when I though I was safe, and it seemd like everyone else had ar33 and all I had was a lously hunting knife or the ocassional klobb all i got we're 4 kills to 12 deaths.

I like all the characters
Just Samdia (or however you spell his name) needs black hands lol
Maybe add a few more characters like Trav, Natalia and maybe the evil woman from day another day! Electra I think!
Maybe some models like the random enemies you fight in the N64 version (referring to the guard) Like the snow guard ^^
Just a few character ideas!

The characters will be added in due time.

It's Samedi, by the way.

The hands thing is because only one hand model was made for convenience. That will also be taken care of in due time.

Models for everyone are planned. (Though I don't know about the extra-extra players.)

Are you planning on changing the main menu's background? I thought it'd be a good idea, since the current one does not capture the true feel of the original, in my opinion. In no way I am saying the current one is badly made; contrary to that. It looks really good.

A folder with the MI6 symbol and Bond's picture could be added, like in the original, and maybe the font used on the main menu changed to something more like that used in a file like that. That's just my opinion.

This is not a necessary nor urgent change. It'd be a nice touch, a nice detail, so to speak.

We agree with you PPK. The main point is "detail" and also the fact that VGUI is such a pain to work on in code and in game. Its planned to have something different, possibly for B4
