Change Weapons Mod to CKR? Options

[Druid]

Dozens of times during the last year or so, we have been asked to switch to CKR or open a CKR server. A few times we have ran a second server using CKR but the server never was a success. This time we will be doing things a little different as we will switch the mod on Goodfellas versus opening another server depending on how this vote goes.

A little background history for those interested.
The original equal weapons mod was made by {MOB}F_K, which I later remade using feedback from players on our server.
The 1st Realism mod as most of you know was CKR made by CrowKing of {BaH}.
CrowKing did a great job with the mod and it was the basis of most future realism mods but it came with a small problem. In the early days of MOHAA, when you joined most servers, the teams would be unequal. This was because most of the people joining automatically picked Axis as they preferred the Axis weapons, specifically the STG44. Or if people used the Rifle most people joined Allied.
The reason behind the equal weapons mod was simple, it was an attempt to help keep the teams even. With our mod it didn't matter which team you picked as the weapons where equal.
I think the mod was a large part of our early success for 2 reasons.
It did help keep teams a little more even so the gameplay was more enjoyable.
The other reason was we offered a little something different than every other server at the time, most of which where running CKR.

The reason we are offering the option of using CKR is the need to use the equal weapins mod to help keep teams even no longer exist. Anyone still playing this game by now is fairly effective regardless of what team they pick when joining the server.

For those interested, I've uploaded a comparison between a few different mods including a brief explanation of the individual settings.
MOD Comparison
This was done a long time ago so I think 2 of the mods are no longer in use ( Aries, Xavier ) The table also includes the default stock setting so you can view the differences between Realism and Stock.
BTW my personal preference would be a mixture of CKR and the Aires mod which is the only mod I've found which used a realistic kick on the MG and SMG. With Aries, you fire more than a few round sand you would be aiming at the sky.

I think there are more people who prefer the CKR mod then any other.

i agree with blk and the CKR helps be more ready for matches, since thats what the realism is in matches

Druid, I have tried that Aries Mod, or I believe it was something similar..OMG you are so right about firing an MG.As hard as I tried you just could not keep you gun from touching the sky.You could not move if you had a Rocket Laucher.

I think a mix of both would be a nice try..Also do you still have the real fire rates I sent you a while back???I think you know them anyways...

ya i think ckr would be a lot better and about the ckr server we got right now can we PLZ move the tanks on remagen and the crates on stali

[|$aucy|]

I prefer ckr.

[D-DayVetLarry]

Personally I like the 20 Round BAR better than the 30 Rounder.

I prefer CKR as well.

[Slimshady]

well fuck all of you... lol i would like to keep it the same and have another ckr sever!

[xl-FLAME-lx]

Personally I will prefer CKR since from now on for a while to try to get back to being teh FLAMEAFLAVE I will only be using the rifle along with Bullet. The Mauser would be great practice in CKR...My thoughts..

Aww Naww,

[DIESEL]

we already had a CKR server and nobody played in it...

[Anvil]

The only reason why no one plays in the ckr server is because no one knows about it. If we give goodfellas ckr people already know about the server and would have no problem filling it.

AYAYAYA bolt action mauser will make anyone l33t.

Change it.

CKR > *

[DIESEL]

lets have both ... but I guarantee the equal weapons will prevail...

[Slimshady]
