Despite what most people may think I actually don&#039;t dislike Odamex. And while I don&#039;t have as much experience on the port as most of these IDL guys who played the entire season do, I was one of the few who play-tested the betas on several occasions. So when comparing final release to beta, I can certainly give some valid input.<br /><br />The one thing that always bothered me was how hard it was to hit somebody with 100ms + ping. I&#039;m sure people will dispute this and say I have no idea what I am talking about and to a certain extent I don&#039;t. I am not capable of going into the details of how Oda works and how shots are achieved. What I am capable of is telling you is I legitimately felt like I had a 50/50 chance of hitting someone with 100ms ping or more. The corner shots that Dew and Stall mentioned bugged the shit out of me, too. <br /><br />It&#039;s like I said a few months back on TS: we were all used to playing ZD. We played the port competitively for a long time so when being forced to change ports, it&#039;s a bit frustrating. I could play ZDaemon with my eyes closed and not miss a beat but as soon as I jump on Oda, it&#039;s like it&#039;s a level playing field again. It&#039;s like my 8+ years experience in a port mean jack shit and now all of a sudden I have to relearn the ins and outs of a new port. I&#039;m not blaming the Oda team or IDL administration for this nor am I saying it&#039;s something that could be avoided: it&#039;s not. It&#039;s a change and sometimes changes are frustrating.<br /><br />Overall I think the port made excellent progress. The small bugs are to be expected and will probably continue to arise in the foreseeable future. I think the biggest challenge the Oda team as well as the IDL administration has is to convince people it&#039;s worth sticking around for. The one thing Odamex has going for it is a responsive development team and a coherent group of administrators who do their best to accomplish the communities&#039; wishes. <br /><br />So there&#039;s my two cents, for what it&#039;s worth.&nbsp;
