But whatever --- End quote --- You join a DM and you instantly load. Someone decides to use a playertype that has a different model, thus, you can't see them for the moment it's downloading. This could give them a huge advantage, or because of how the engine works, probably crash everyone. --- Quote from: PVC Potato Gun on July 12, 2011, 09:57:29 PM ---I think this should be a cloud thing.

Downloading WHILE you play sounds like a laggy mess for a lot of people. Join a good server and their load will be only as long as it needs to be, hosts just need to learn not to suck. I complain every time I join a server that has a mod that they don't need and I'd be glad when they ban me after it. I don't want to spend my time in a server so bad that the host would ban someone telling them how to fix a problem rather than fix it. |
