<div class="IPBDescription">Probably the best way to teach them.</div> I've been reading along in these forums (particularly in the Frontiersmen Strats) for about two months now, and have just started posting. It seems that most of the gripes about marine teams stem from the fact that many NS players don't quite know how to fight effectively, yet courteously (if you think about it, a 'courteous' marine has just about every desirable trait mentioned in these forums).
I don't know if you vets have been doing this before now, but I think it would be a good idea to tell any other players you play with or against about this forum (especially the Frontiersmen strats). A suprising number of NS players don't know about it, and everyone can benefit from a bit of reading.

I've been thinking about adding a bind to a key that says something like "Try reading the forums at www.natural-selection.org/forums."

"Why the *BLEEEEP* do we have 4 gorgs on a 5 man team?"
I mean, if a gorge doesnt know what to do when i say to him i need a healing... omg, he was just spitting me, ignoring me, and then i saw in his eyes he was thinking i would be a good spot to build an offensive chamber on...!
I think <b>its the manuals fault!</b>
It makes you feel like reading a science fiction novell and doesnt mention how to use blink or the other stuff.
I had to play hours - no - days before i understood some and blink i understood after weeks...
(if i am correct its used best when u can click on a spot thats elevated from your current position, or am i wrong <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo--> )
We really need a compact small quick users manual, thats the solution!
Now...wouldn't it be cool if a forum member had his own server, and posted the IP here, so all of us tactically-thinking types could go play all at once?
That'd be just swell.
The CS Community S-U-X-X
While the game is meant to be teamwork, whether in a clan or public, it always gave me the feeling
most of those who play it have a psychological problem in which they must prove to the rest how good they are at scrolling their mouse on the pad!
With NS, CS is HISTORY.
And yes, we need to emphasise the teamoriented play!
Cause its much more fun!
Yeah! Gimme that IPs fellow Marines (or Alien brethren hehe)! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
I LOVE NS!!!!
Heh. That's pretty funny. Most of the people I know that play CS don't want to bother to try something new, think that it is just some lame rip-off (er, what?), or think it would be too confusing and not fun at all.
Oh, and the manual doesn't explain things perfectly becuase it was written before the game was finished. There are plenty of errors in it that need correcting. This might happen if a big client-side patch comes out, or at least that's what I hope will happen. In any case, if you read the manual or at least try something before you ask about it, you can figure out the game just fine. It's a complicated game, and takes longer to learn than any other FPS.
Bad side: Forum fills with newbs. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
It's called the Suggestions and Ideas board. Ugh.

hehe , first time i played NS i managed to build a R tower on top of my self <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> , i never though of telling n00bs to come here but i always tell them to read the NS webby , but as most 12year olds would do they just say they know everything and then get po'ed when they cant kill somthing cause there trying to right click for a secondary fire or sitting in the Ip's at spawn and trying to buy weapons then get tele-fraged.

Amen to that. I was poking around in there a minute and lost about 50 IQ points.
