Dear developers at valve,
My name is faker, I'm Headadmin/CEO at Xtreme-Jumps.eu, the official Kreedz Community (CS 1.6 Climbmaps). Our lovely community has about 50.000 members, 522 official climbmaps and world-record demos for every single climbmap out there. The maps and demos are updated regularly each month. Furthermore we got 2 Jumpservers (+ 1 HLTV) with a lot of jumpcups and an IRC channel with about ~200 idlers every day.
Beyond that there are a lot of national based community, just as climbers-germany.de or kz-china (http://kz.simen.cn/) with a record amount of 120.000 chinese members. Altogether there are about ~200.000 people who love to play keedz/climbmaps all over the world!!
Due to your latest Beta Update for CS 1.6 the future of our beloved climbmaps is threatened and lays in your hand.
Note: We really don't want to judge or question your attemps to fix the "russian duck/bounce", we just want to discuss HOW you are going to achieve that.
The first attempts to add an extra sound to make them louder were okay and a very logical thought, which wasn't problematical for the kreedz community at all.
But if you really bring the latest beta update just as it is the moment (massive slowdown after using +duck), this might be the end of our beloved climbmaps (at least for the bigger parts of them):
It's obvious that the update will change the CS movement completely, which is kinda annoying for normal Counter-Strike players because they have to get used to it (but they WILL get used to it), but it would have HORRIBLE/TRAGICALLY consequences for us, since it will kill some basic techniques in Kreedz (or at least make them _WAY_ less effective):
- Doubleducks
- Countjumps
- Duckstandup Bhops
Therfore we'd like to ask you to think about the consequences this update might have for 200.000 people around the wolrd, who LOVE to play these CS 1.6 climbmaps.
Of course you might mention that people will get used to the upcoming duck-physics in the Kreedz-Community as well, but you have to keep in mind that the Counter-Strike movement didn't change in the last 2 years and a large amount of the 522 climbmaps were designed to be beaten with exactly all these techniques,that might be removed with the latest "bugfix".
If this is really the ONLY way to get rid of the russian duck/bounce, PLEASE think about adding a cvar (just like you did it for the "edgefriction" for example) that will restore the old/current duck physics in ORDER the save our communities!
This way you could make 200.000 people more than happy!!!
Thanks in advance for considering this thread!
Sincerely,
faker, CEO at Xtreme-Jumps.eu

What I ask is for this communtiys support, all I need is you to register on http://forums.steampowered.com and post here http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/f ... ay.php?f=7
This update will also kill what I play, Hide N Seek. This mod is the only thing that makes me to not wanna leave Counter-Strike. If they add this mod they gonna destroy everything me and many more worked for, all the world records will be reseted due the unfair advantage you had before the update.
So all I ask for is to just register and say Save Kreedz or something in the thread and help save this mod.
