Maybe i underestimated how great the advantage was. I never said it wasn't there... I just said that it probably wasn't enough to completely change the outcome of a game.
I played saturday for a bit in elimbeta with 1680x1050. my god was it fun.
first game came in second. won the 2nd and 3rd games. was going to win the 4th game but agreed to spec since me and the other guy were on like 5 deaths apiece and he was whining about sudden death.
And had a 4:1 ratio for a good bit of those games.
So maybe there is an advantage, or I'm just that good now :turned:
I guess I expected other people to also take advantage of the situation and bump up their resolutions.
That said, I still like it. It virtually neutralizes any advantage the laggots have in shooting invisible bullets. The difference in dodging one of those bullets with 1024x768 and 1680x1050 is clear as day and night. You have NO time to react in one case, and all day in the other. I'll also concede that it's not that much harder to aim, it's basically just radar sniping with a better scope ^-^
SO in SUM:
I agree with most other people here: It shouldn't be allowed in TWDD/LD but it should be allowed in all other arenas (with the possible exception of elim- but i think it would add an interesting element to the game- not unlike having extreme lag in TWEL or something)
edit: and money you didn't win all of the games you played in with that resolution... I'm sure I won at least one of them :P
