The worst balenced mod ever...

<div class="IPBDescription">Gangwars</div>GangWars (Not to be confused with gangsta wars) is the most terribly balenced game ever.  The first round is <b>EVERYTHING</b> I mean, to get better guns, you need "Juice" and to get juice, you need to kill and win rounds.  If you are a n00b and you lose the first round, the other team gets better guns, while you get the crappy pisol, and one shotgun.  If you lose again, now your in for it, they will have assault rifles while you have pistols!  And you will keep losing and losing untill  you are so fed up that you leave.  I hate that mod.

    I´ve tried Ganwars too. I agree with you. Plus the running speed seems redicolous. The idea about the gangleaders is good though

    And here we see why CS has the feature that if you loose consectutive rounds the loosing team gets more and more money until after enough consecutive losses they get more than the winning team (but then they died so have to buy more guns whereas the winning team often doesn't).

    IMHO Gangsta Wars is just cs with customs skins and low recoil with a new buy system.

    Now if only the cheaters could be killed off, preferrably in an excessively bloody fashon...

    ok preface, I rather like GW

    the first round is NOT the be all end all, mainly b/c you have to remember that you only get juice for your own actions, not for your team mates

    also the low lvl weps are rather good (naimly Sguns)

    all you need is one or 2 upgrades (not that hard to get if you are decent) and you will have good enough weps to hold your own against others

    yes there is a problem with this game, and that is that if you are bad at the game, you will have a VERY hard time with it

    however if the skill is balanced fairly well in the game it gets realy fun (so long as most ppl can get up SMGs it tends to be good)

    ok, thats realy all I am not going to try and switch any of your mids or any thing, I just wanted the other side of the fence in this thread (not just flaming on of my mod tat I like)

    I've played it and its nothing special.

    Its basically CS on crack or something.  The "creators" made every gun accurate because making them inaccurate was "stupid".

    Basically, all he did was code the weapons damage and the buy system.  They stole (and yes, I said it - stole) every single model in that game.  They say they give credit were its do - so what.  They did not ask for permission from the authors to have their work used in that game.

    Besides, quit whining.  All the guns are accurate and they do massive damage.  Learn to aim and you can use the pistol just fine.  Only difference between the pistol and an assault rifle is the rifle has a bigger clip and can shoot them faster.

    A head shot with a pistol can take down anyone.  Why do you think there are so many cheaters in GW?

    It's not that unbalanced.
  • BillBill Join Date: 2002-08-08 Member: 1108Members
    During the 5 minutes I installed, played, and uninstalled this "MOD" I didn't really have time to notice.  Bleh, HL mods aren't that fun anymore mainly due to lack of original ideas.

    You are allowed to use stuff from orig Half-Life because Valve says you can. (at least that's my understanding of it) If you don't explicitly say that someone can use your work with out asking you then they can't legaly. And even if I'm wrong it's just plain dishonest.

    i have seen some semi-original ideas for hl-mods

    unfortunately most never suceed.

    one mod that i like is global warfare. anyone try that? its pretty sweet. really. not terribly original, but theve got all new weapons and classes, and the idea of transports is pretty sweet.

    Vampire slayer has a pretty original idea. So has this soon to be released mod "Natural Selection". Anyone heard about that one?  <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    Valve also allows you to use opposing force and CS as they were released retail, saw it on the wavelength forums!

    you can NEVER get more money per round than the winning team in CS... unless you're a CT and you rescue 3 hostages and die, then you personally get more money, but your team still doesn't. Max. money a losing team can get is around $3000, but the winning team makes a cool $3500 or so each round.

    The manual <a href="http://www.counter-strike.net/manual.html" target="_blank">http://www.counter-strike.net/manual.html</a> shows that (at least for elimination) the losing team can get more than the winning team, although that doesn't account for more people (ie everyone) having to buy new gear, where at least one guy from the other team survived.

    But then again I don't play CS so maybe I shouldn't be trusting the manual.

    Yes they can use the default models from CS but they can't steal the custom models without permission.

    Why is everything a CS clone?
