You really have no idea David Williams.
Valve does actually care, valve does actually fix problems. But like it or
not, they do not actually have four hundred million programmers on the pay
list. Want to know what that means? It means they can't fix all issues in an
instant.
On top of that, like it or not, butValve is a business that needs to make a
profit. Without making a profit, they'll have to fire employees which
results in even slower bug fixing. Adding features to the source
engine is big money (selling engine licenses is big money).

Please refrain from narrowmindedness. Besides, I'v pointed valve to a
significant amount of issues (a lot of which have now been fixed), and I'll
continue to do so. But me and whisper, while both good at pointing out bugs,
are not programmers good enough to replace valve's. At best we'd make good
assets to the team of directors deciding what will and what won't happen to
the game.

SteamPowered forum MODERATORS are NOT on the Valve payroll either. While
they try to help they're obviously occasionally stupid. Bottom line: They're
not valve employees, theyre volunteers, just trying to help out, giving away
their own free time for nothing.

 with them, and I think a significant majority of
 other Counter-Strike:Source players of both public and competitive playing
 persuasions (you know there is a big problem when you can get both these
 groups to agree on anything) will agree with me.

 Also I have heard the argument made from Valve, is that the movement while
 crouched looks very bad in first person if you shift the POV to eye level. I
 would counter that statement by simply saying that most people do not spend
 an inordinate amount of time moving around the map whilst crouched,
 [b]AND[/b] even if it does have some display issues, these are outweighed by
 the benefit of being able to clearly see how you are positioned in relation
 to your surroundings and being able to see other players when they can see
 you.

 [url]http://img3.imageshack.us/my.php?image=naamloos8yz.jpg[/url]

 If Valve would care to comment on why they are not willing to change the
 crouched POV, we all would certainly like to hear the rationale with some
 specific examples.

 So the only way to make Valve aware that we consider this to be a major
 issue that should be revised considerably and changed, since the
 overwhelming majority of Counter-Strike:Source players think there is a
 problem, and what is more, agree on what the solution is, is to get as many
 [b]YES[/b] votes in this thread as possible.

 If we get thousands of replies all saying [b]YES[/b] the crouched POV
 should be changed, then perhaps Valve will take what we have to say
 seriously, and not disregard our feelings on this issue.

 I know there are other issues that demand Valves attention, but most of
 them are bugs that will in fact be fixed sooner or later, but this issue
 will never be fixed as Valve do not agree with us that there is any problem.

 Tell all your friends, tell all the Counter-Strike News Sites about this
 thread, post in all the game forums outide of here to get as many votes as
 possible.

 Vote [b]YES[/b] in this thread if you want the Crouched POV changed to the
 Eye Height of the Model.

 Make sure you give some reason why you agree or disagree why the crouched
 POV should be changed, lest some moderators decide to lock the thread
again,
 because apparently you are not allowed to provide one word responses to a
 tightly defined problem.

 I think that there is hardly a Counter-Strike:Source player who thinks the
 current crouched Point of View ([b]POV[/b]) is fair or even correct.

 If you do think it is fair and correct, then I feel you would be in the
 minority.



 For those of you who are not familiar with the problem, it can be
 explained like this:

 When you are standing, your POV is as if you are looking out through the
 model at the same level your eyes would be on the model.

 When you are crouched, your POV is as if you are looking out through the
 model at the same level your [b]CROTCH[/b] would be on the model.

 See attached pictures if you need visual aids to understand the problem.

 This is neither fair nor equitable as standing players will have a clear
 view of crouching players, but the crouching players have no view of
players
 who can clearly see them.

 Quite often this leads to players being shot when they think they are
 under cover, when

IS this page Located any Where else?? This was the best Article about
tickrate and something I uses to explain what tickrate is.  Why would
the steam STEAM Forum Moderators delete it.

Any else have a real good Article on the explanation or tickrate?

The STEAM Forum moderators seemed to have no problem locking other perfectly
legitamate threads I created, claiming they were just spam threads, so I
removed my support for the STEAM Forums.

I was also informed my contributions would not be missed.

Oh well.
