SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

(Shotgun handling)
: Why is this a problem? Because you end up trying to fire a gun that's actually empty.
: Because having just M1 weapons would have made
: for a lame MP experience.
I meant using the M1 look for the guns that were in M1. I think the M2 ones look better and all, though. Will you have both alien weapons?
: Crosshair, yes. Everything else, no. Everything else
: makes for a more fun experience.
Jumping severely changes some of the maps though. Especially in single player, it's very easy to get all kinds of secrets that used to take work/skill. For instance, the ledge near the switch that raises the stairs in Never Burn Money.
On a related note, to appease the people who want modern-looking maps, you could pretty them up with a few extra polygons without changing gameplay or severely changing the atmosphere.
