Post subject:  Headshot only servers?

I was thinking about new, different kinds of servers that I have played on that could possibly be beneficial. Probably the most helpful server to me would be the headshot only servers, the only problem is that the only ones I can find are the hugely over populated laggy deathmatch ones. I think it would be cool if a server was set up like a 5 on5 or even 10 on 10 and just like a competitive game. You could go in all kinds of different directions with this, maybe a pistol only headshot server.

the problem is that they require plugins like amx or something along those lines. Those are very taxing on servers. We keep our servers vanilla for excellent registry.

Can you put the amx plugin just on this type of server without effecting the others? I don't think it would really matter that big of a deal if the registry is a not perfect like our other servers seeing how Phobia said that the only other headshot only servers are really laggy. Those servers are probably EU or Brazil servers when US can't play in.

There are three problems with headshot only servers. The plug-in itself is horrendous and ruins registry, so you're going to be screwed there. You're practicing headshots against people who can only headshot you so they're much worse op opponents than if you go into a normal server and just practice your headshots there. And there are so many other headshot only servers ours would always be empty. So to me, it seems like a useless waste of time and resources.

I'm welcome to being convinced otherwise, though.

You're wrong. Do I win now?

But seriously, I have never been in a good headshot only server - even in 1.6 and CZ. They've always had terrible reg, like is has been said above. You would be much better off playing the 1 click game (where you shoot one bullet, then reload) in a normal server, than going to a headshot only server.

My next suggestion would be to go into a DM server and just single click. That's how I warm up when I never warm up.

I stand corrected then haha, I never never that plug in ruined the reg. Well the more I know. Do you why the plug-ins ruin the reg? I am confused on how it does that.

Its a tasking plugin for the server. It uses a lot of resources. Also, it just does something to the way the bullets register on the hitboxes. I can't explain it but just playing in it then immediately going to a server without the plugin lets you see just how bad the bullets were registering. Anubis (amaroq) might be able to explain better.

No, I have no idea how the plugins work. All I know is that it's very obvious when you join a hs only server that nothing hits where it's supposed to.
