Action snap & lobby chat - do you actually use them?

Yeah, slow motion kinda ruins soldat's pace ;/
It's got this unexplainable lameness...(Excessive use of stupid words right there)
And Action Snap is useless as well, people prefer taking manual screenshots. It's simply better.

I actually like the Action Snap feature, but whenever it activates I get a small split second freeze of my Soldat game. Also it doesnt show the correct crop of the "action" due to my higher resolution.

I found exploding heads to be the most useful addition in 1.5. Both chat and the action snap are crap.

I use actionsnap every now and then. Lobby chat not as much but that's because noone else does :S

Although I usually wouldn't say 'crap'. Just that I have never even attempted to use either.
Exploding heads are hilarious though.
When did they start applying to everything? When last I looked it was supposed to be only ruger and rett. In TW I see it happening for fall damage, ak, whatever, just less often than ruget/rett. Is this a bug or a feature? Both?

I would use action snap more if it recorded the screen a tad after the kill. I like to see the blood and guts fly outward a little. With the current action snap, the gore doesn't get to spray much before the screen is taken.

If there's a way to change this in the current version (a setting that I don't know of), I would like to know.

I would you ActionSnap but when I press F5 to display the snapped photo, it's just a mess, like with beta-versions.

I haven't been using actionsnap, however, I will be starting to use it for 2 reasons. 1. I like the shot sometimes. 2. As I'm getting my personal video studio set up as part of my job (contract renewed... DUDDITS!!!), I want to do some Soldat based animation for either a comic or just for fun and practice, so the pics help when you need a reference.

As in terms of lobby chat. I've been on a few times, but there is never anyone there. I'm not lonely enough to talk to myself. It sure would be nice and would help sometimes if there were people on. I think if all of us try to be on on a regular basis, it could come to be quite handy and fulfill its purpose. Sometimes I see an empty server here and there, that could be quickly filled if there were some communication. Lately, I've had a hard time playing, since the servers I play on are always empty, or down and the ones people are playing on are too far for me.

Hopefully I can set up one or two dedicated servers this summer, sometime in August or September. That would help in the West.
