<div class="IPBDescription">say your goodbyes</div> Well 2.0 is just around the corner and that means 1.04 is toast. I know everyone is starving for a new NS but I want to set this thread aside for those who still love 1.04 deep down inside. I know it has its fair share of imbalances and bugs, but theres so much I love about it. Try not to turn this thread into a sarcastic 1.04 hate thread, there are plenty of those. Just tell us all what you loved about 1.04 or nothing at all.
What I'll miss:
- my beloved pistol: So many times i was accused of scripting, but i did it all with my finger, faster than any script, and made so many skulks angry
- winning aliens: everyone knows that its quite a task to stop the infamous jp/hmg rush (if it's done right), and that kinda sucked. But it felt so great when you manged to stop 4 jetpackers cold, save the hive, and go on to win the game.
- jetpacking: not really sure how bad jp's will be in 2.0, but they were so fun in 1.04. Nothin beats toying with 4-5 skulks and pickin them off 1 by 1 from the skies.
- lerk bite: ah the lerk bite. By far the most fun i've had in any game EVER. when i was just a wee lil pubber i never knew the power of the lerk, but once i got into the clan scene and played against the crazy lerks of clans like ReD, HAM, and the old xoverzero, it was a whole new game to me. I learned alot from watching them, and dying to them.... alot.
good game 1.04.... good game

Hm... what will I miss? The 1.04 jetpack, 2.0 jetpack is a "jump pack".
Of course, depending on how the first week of playing 2.0 on my servers, I may tweak the JP.
2.0 has plenty of room for the whole family.

rofl im not sure what that guy meant! carapace is still in there right...
I was told the CPU usage is still the same.
I will miss powerful Siege Cannons.
I will also miss Scaner sweeps costing res instead of energy (as I hear you can only ping a certain number of times now)
I will forever miss <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>ns_NANCY</span>
/shrug. Dont know what else... will have to play 2.0, and then tell you what I really miss
2. Lerk Bite. Nothing beat mid air head kills :-)
3. BLINK! I'm not excited about the new blink. I was a master at the old one. It was so fun. Especially in big rooms :-(
4. The satisfaction of winning as aliens.
5. Crazy "elite" jetpacking.
TheGivingTree: You were told wrong. DEAD WRONG. CPU usage is now really low. About double that of a same-size CS game. Thats low :-)
fun map, mess hall early game was deady for the <b>Second</b> team to get there
babblers...
oh and
Babblers!
Voogru when 2.0 comes out can you make a mod that lets admins unleash babblers on unsuspecting victims? that'd be sweet.
The first acid rocket that goes into marine spawn. BOOM! Killing the entire marine team that way will be remembered as a shining moment in 1.04. Sure, you can do it in 2.0 too, but you have to wait for 3 hives, or attack the mines one by one which isn't as much fun <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->
Nancy... I'll miss it a bit cause I finally learned enough of the tunnel system...
