IMO, you shouldn't be able to change models mid-round because then you can rebel with one model and switch off to a different one. I think you should have to wait til the next round after choosing a different model for it to switch.

 

Unless I'm extremely mistaken, it was always like this and this change was recent and I assume because of something.

People aren’t allowed to KOS off of models anyways, only off of names. So it shouldn’t make a difference as to whether people change models mid round.

 

You don't call KOS on models, but if you're a CT and you see that lit panther skin running throught razer's secret without catching the name, you just know that the panther appearing in pool is the same fucker. Changing models mid round WOULD make a huge difference on that kind of situation.

 

Same goes for trails/auras etc.

Players have been able to change their model mid round for as long as I know. A lot of people did this on our server back in Source and no one really batted an eye.

So, what your saying is that if you saw a pink panther chilling in the pool even though you don’t know with certainty that it was that same pink panther that took the teleport, that you would kill the pink panther?

Extremely situational.

 

If I see a pink panther running around with a top hat and a blue and red vortex aura along with a pink trail and a blue colored skin shooting at people and I see him again later in pool I am going to shoot him.

 

I know for a fact that at one point in time you were not physically able to change your model til you respawned. That was the best way of having it played because it avoided most confusion or freekills. Sure, confusion might be good for rebelling Ts, but not for others who get killed because of their actions.

The argument about whether you can KOS off of models is not extremely relevant to this post though I'd just like to mention it does not say it anywhere within the FAQ & Rules about whether it is allowed- so just make sure if you're gonna kill someone, you are for certain it was them. Feel free to make a new thread if you disagree with that notion, or if you find it in there please correct me. I don't think people should be able to switch models regardless midround, even if you can't KOS them it makes it extremely hard to know who to watch and who I should give what orders.

This is subtly discouraging people from using a custom model and therefore also discouraging purchasing sub. If I know that wearing a model makes me stick out like a sore thumb and I can’t change back to a regular model, then I’ll simply choose to always be a regular model.

 

Side note: with the knowledge that I can change playermodels mid round, i really want to make a script or set keybinds so I can change my model, say once every thirty seconds or so, and be the illusory mysterious shape shifter xd

I really don't feel this is a very big issue that happens often enough (correct me if i'm wrong). If this would even be the slightest of pains in the ass to implement I don't see it as worth the time, especially when you aren't supposed to make judgements based on models in the first place. But other than that, I'm confused: What other time is there to change your model? If you have to respawn to change your model wouldn't you just be in the middle of the next round??? NVM I get it now lul

 

This isn't something that needs to be implemented, it needs to be fixed, this is how it used to be. This is also how it should be considering you can make judgments based on models (unless someone secretly changed something), you just have to make sure you're right. With this being a thing, you'll probably end up being wrong when you try to make those judgments.
