"get ready with your printscreen keys, guys"

I thought to myself... "pfft.. who has time to do something like /that/?"

    Right. OP edited. I clearly suck at trying to share 10000-pixel-high images.

    Well I was trying to read it anyways. Checked. MUCH better although loading time is being quite slow due to size.

    Sorry. But hey, at least you'll finally be able to hear that special female taunt from Reinforced...as well as Fade and Onos taunts ;)

    Fade has a taunt? I thought he was just taking a leak...

    But gorge taunts are just special and are meant to be heard. In fact, when I receive a text I hear a gorge call.


    Lerks will be annoying though I am sure (Knowing I will spam the lerk taunt)

    I tried to watch it as it scrolled past and listen to WasabiOne at the same time, now I am crossed eyed. I think it will make me shoot better now. Walking however is a problem.

    I hope skulk taunt was fixed along with all the other taunts ... I barely remember what it sounded like.

    Lerk poison bite draw damage actually moves with the marine moving essentially giving hive sight back to lerks once they've done damage to a marine. This was removed once for being OP I believe. It should not be brought back.

    Add a warning when joining a 24+ slot server in rookie mode should be changed to not have that exclusivity criteria. All players should receive warning.

    Power surge selection now powers nearest entity to click like nanoshield. Should be reverted to needing to hit your target (Mainly to try and get nanoshield needing to hit the target to increase comm skill)

    YAAAY DEBUGSPEED.


    Everything else looks fantastic / I don't understand it.

    One word of caution towards the new skill balance. It's not going to be perfect until either hive stats gets reset and everyone plays ~50hours, or everyone plays ~150 hours to rebalance actual stats. The algorithm might not even work out in it's intended meaning because something was over seen. We first had random ready room, then we had !vote ELO, then we had force random even teams and none of these options has worked perfectly, so don't get your hopes up over yet another option despite the maths being displayed on the forums.

    It's been in Ns2+ for a while so it might not be that op considering you haven't noticed all this time. :P

    They are going to reset the current hivestats for the new skillsystem. (I hope they perform a database backup now, in case something goes wrong and they need a rollback). Badges are not affected. I guess score and level isn't aswell.
    You're right "Force Even" will not work perfectly especially in the beginning. But even after it will not, because everyone has a different view of what would be a balanced team and teamwork is important too. I saw a team with crazy-skilled people loose to not-so-good players, just because everyone did his own thing.
    However I imagine "Force Even" to work better and better the more people play on the same servers.

    Sometimes when I run through a phasegate I phase to the same phasegate, it's really disorientating.

    I get this too. It usually only happens for me when marines all try to rush through a PG at once.

    I get the same but not necessarily in that case personally. Just sometimes it happens, to go through a PG & going back at the same point.

    I'll say this much: A skulk can no longer climb on Command Chairs or Phase Gate models (the vertical portion)
    So it's better..
