Crits on the Arena Server

[OmegaZero_Alpha]

your servers make me want to cry.

These servers are makin ya cry, they're makin me cry.

Get the SLAP-DF, you don't wanna cry anymore.

That note, I found a disturbing video looking for the exact quote:

DF - Do u think turning off crits on #1 would bother players?

This would not include intentional crits such as BB, KK etc... just the random hits.

I consider myself a decent player and Id say 70% of the time Im killed by a 'lucky' crit. I cant be the minority who is incredibly annoyed by this in another wise great game...

Even though I hate crits, I think it would be bad to get the turned off on the main pubs. Crits attract the more casual players. I remember what it was like to be a young newbling and gibbing the guy on top of the scoreboard with a lucky crit rocket. Feels good, man.

Right and at the same time leaving the spawn to be 'lucky' critted by a Scout.

I remember that being my initial confusion when I started playing TF2...

"Why did I just die from 1 shot?!?"

Unforunately the entire game was designed with crits in mind

The command itself was not even programmed when it was released, valve did it beause people requested nocrit

False. If I remember right, there was actually a command to control the exact percent chance for crits it was just hidden. Valve initially removed it and then added the dumbed down command that's available today.

oololololol

Is there a CVAR to alter crit chance?

I know in TFTrue they allowed you to change it.

[trover4]

simple answer no...you can just turn them on or off. However certain mod's allow plugins that give you control over it...ive never experimented with them as i don't run crits on my server, however ive seen them in several places...
