Particle 1 And It's Problems.

VIPs on the HellsGamers Degroot Keep server get access to effects on their hats. But there's an effect that makes the spy somewhat broken even more than it is now. It's Particle 1. I often use my Pyrovision goggles for that "noob" set and to look like I'm an idiot. Then comes the Particle 1. A spy on this server uses Particle 1 on his hat and it makes everyone's TF2 LAG. When they try to melee him, the effect covers their screen, allowing him to move to their back and kill them. They also flail arond and that usualy results in their death.

 

You're probably wondering, how bad can it be? I can tell you. My TF2 runs at a smooth 80-120 FPS all the time. When I look at Particle 1 in pyroland, not only does the particle stack, making it lag, but my TF2 starts lagging at a terrible 12 FPS. It's horrible and I can't possibly see anything. Don't believe me? I turned on cl_showfps 1 and took a picture of the effect. http://steamcommunit.../?id=158136028 Playing against him is a complete nightmare as you can't see anything once you aim towards him. It's like trying to see a sign far away in a sandstom.

 

I really do hope this problem can be resolved so this exploitation of the VIP powers cannot be used by others.

Did you mean beams?

 

And do you by chance know what hat the spy was wearing, and whether or not it was an unusual already?
