SR8 works better on v4.1, not good on 4.2
The only problem with Sr8 in 4.2 is that we are still in a rapid release schedule, so nobody wants to take the time to make the mods which could be obsoleted in a matter of weeks.
But, using g_gear 61 or equipment b3 mods works just fine for now.
To that end, will we ever see complete weapon/equipment control from g_gear devs? I think that is something the entire community would really appreciate, though I have no idea how involved that change would be. I assume it's how it is now because that's the only way it can be.
If your speaking about hit locations, then I think you really need to give 4.2 a try. The 90 butt and 97 groin are the bane of old hat snipers, but they really add a wonderful depth to Sr8. Getting hit in the groin places one in quite a conundrum. Do you try your damnedest to get one final shot off before you bleed, or do you jiggle around avoiding the next shot while medding yourself to 1%? Very exciting. And those 50 arm followed by 40 feet shots are spirit crushing when you're doing the shooting, but for everyone else on the server, it's quite exhilarating.
Anyway, if you are still unsure, feel free to watch some of the first and second round matches of the UTSC Sr8 Tournament on our youtube channel for a better look into how Sr8 plays out in 4.2. As you'll see, pros have no trouble in 4.2 because they hit chests and heads and don't have to worry about the new hit locations :P
