Faster than a speeding bullet! ok, not that fast - Natural Selection 2
One of the biggest complaints we read in the forums and steam reviews has always been “why are my load times so long?”. For some it was infuriating to load...

That depends on your texture quality setting.
WOW it's almost like that's the point of scaling
As true as that is, it doesn't feel so great after being on "broken" 1440p scaling. some stuff like the commander UI and biomass/upgrade icons just feel unnecessarily large at 1440p now. Would be nice if there was a scaling option for people.
I love having my health bars not being tiny, but the scoreboard, minimap, armory screen and everything being that big on such a large screen just feels wrong.
Can we have a marine, alien, commander key config ? Right now we have normal and commander. Or at least something to switch config fast if menus are difficult to make / create.
It's so obvious that i felt it wasn't necessary to talk about.
Ho and...
"broken power node" in first hive.
The UI and elements now scale correctly. They were not correct previously as the UI did not support scaling.
Great posts, your priorities in life seem to be in line with that of a mentally healthy person. You're lacking a few extra exclamation points and more swear words to make your quality posts perfect. Man, I'm so jealous of your posts. Keep working on it.
It was all fine for me, so why change my game?! I just want it back as it was. End of story.
I think this calls for an xkcd. https://xkcd.com/1172/

Before we descent into more hilarity, dammit @Mendasp you almost made me choke on me drink here!
Isn't "seeing more" because of your resolution an unfair advantage, even far beyond 16:9 vs 4:3 ratios? I would say, this fix would... you know, fix that... Right?
Yeah because Mendasp destroyed NS2. Seriously though, give it some time and you will probably get used to it. It's nice to be able to see things on the minimap.
Subjectivity is not Quantifiable.
Long story short...help us, help you. Otherwise, it's just a pile of useless complaints that no one can do anything with.
@UncleCrunch broken power node? what's this? Could you elaborate on this please?
My armory screen feels huge on 27" now it never once bothered me it was that size before.
The minimap now fills my entire screen at 27" it in my opinion was nicer when it was smaller and mroe compact and actually the same pixel size, not scaling percentage it was on 1080p but on 1440p.
Sure I love having bigger health bars, they were always a little out of the way before, but when everything else, as others have clearly pointed out things feel so much more cramped on screen now. Yes your scaling works great and for people above 1440p im sure it's much more helpful, the scaling however makes a lot of the elements feel/look worse for those of us used to how lovely and clean things were before.
NS2+ has options to let me scale my damage numbers, I used to have them less than 100% on 1440p, now with the new scaling even damage numbers at 50% are bigger, or maybe equal to 1440p 100%. I can no longer use nice small damage numbers, because the scaling makes it so.
If you've made scaling work properly, give players a slider top adjust scaling to their own preference?
Im not hating on the work you've done, but it's a drastic change to a few players, no one at 1080p cares, their game is the same. For those of us who have been fine with old scaling can we not have it adjustable back?
BTW, the Linux version is fine, I can select an audio device now, it loads fast etc. No complaints, good job!
