Warning Shots

[as']

FYI For all of you new to PB/JB An AWP to the head does not count as a warning shot

 

I have noticed lately that people don't really seem to be giving warning shots, and if they are they shoot someone about five times and say oopps when they die. They also like to give headshots as warning shots.

 

To the powers that be (Revenga Nuclear @Paul etc) who add plugins and whatnot to the JB server, I am looking at a plugin that nerfs a specified guns damage as well as causes some player pushback (Ie Moves the player a bit when the bullet hits) that might be a good option for a "Warning Shot Gun" That can be used as a secondary. Once i get it up and running I will let you know if its feasible and if it seems to work maybe it could be looked at as a solution to this problem.

I'm not sure that nerfing weapons and such is really necessary. All it takes is to punish those that are breaking the rules. I'd hate to see an awp get nerfed because a couple people don't know how to properly play the game. Accidental shots occur sometimes but for those that are just juan deaging everyone or not using warning shots you should report them.

yes theres a bunch of people unaware that the awp deals more than 100 damage, but nerfing it would piss alot of people off by hitting 90 etc when we are supposed to kill them, this goes for pretty much every gun imo. best thing is to explain them what not to do, if they dont get it: -> Call an admin or report them

Is there really a bunch of people who don't know the awp does more than 100 dmg?

Thanks for making the suggestion and engaging on this. Keep it up.

 

However this problem is related to a number of young ones joining & taking their chances with those shots which is freekilling. Admins on will punish them / warn them not to do it again if they are not aware. If no admins, record and we will be happy to sort it out.

 

Generally warning shots are done to the lower end of the body, feet / legs which will do less damage and by all means no head shots regardless of AWP or not in giving a warning shot. As we enter Summer and Exams over, things are going to heat up & more SA's will be involved in PB to put the law of SG into the minds of those players with the Asgard Ban Hammer.

I think you guys got my idea a little wrong, I dont want to nerf the awp or nerf any weapons, I want to create a special "Warning Shot Pistol" that CT's can use to get someones attention but that does not necessarily cause any damage. I know I would be pissed if the awp was nerfed lol.

I feel like the normal pistol dealing the minimal damage that it can for warning shot. If I am going to warning shot someone, i am either using my primary to spray near them that may or may not hit them on flood; or using pistol.

 

It's really depends on the CTs on how well they can control a crowd or riot.

 

Though, it seems like not much CTs have crowd control skills

Oh man I can't wait to start playing pb again.

Imo, this seems like a very bad idea.

Like you suggested before it'd have a slight knockback or something, which would undoubtedly result in some serious abuse with those little pistols.

Also, I'd rather not get caught with my warning shot pistol out while some T with an awp peeks around the corner and decides to AWP me in the face.

 

Warning shots are best given with the normal guns you bring.

If you brought an awp or a shotgun or something, either switch to your secondary or just shoot them in the foot.

 

There's usually plenty admins on to make sure no actual freekilling is going on, and if it is, it is dealt with quickly
