hmm, this has been my largest fear, however I am starting to get allitle less worried
I also hope that Admin Mod will be running on most servers (the power to drop a boot on those foolish enough to grief, especialy on marines)
on slight off topic: the entire dual play style of NS is why I think I will love it so much I am a rather good DMer and I bloody love stealth and death from above (I am always the bastd on the roof when ever I can)
however my perfered playstyle is squad play, I like having some ppl I know will have my back, and that we will listen to each other
again on the other hand I do just need to go psycho (not to mention that I love suicide runs and Xenocide will be my fav weapon ever ;D)

this game just gets better and better.. awwwwwwwww #### if this game gets big I bet there will be alot of hackers, ####. Heh admin mod = less llamas. BTW what could a llama really do in this game? I mean what? Lets see theres get killed alot. Waste some resources. Try and let enemy in. Get killed some more. Create lag. Hmmmmmmmm doesnt sound like there'll be much llamas.... Believe me I've been one before when I got bored as heck of all my games so I was just messin around on games. But I wasnt a true llama.

again: Cheats are not TOO much to worrie about, especialy if admin mod works with NS I also seem to remember hearing that the HL anti cheat was going to work with NS
as for what can a llama do?? oh god there is to much: 1) get in comand and waste RPS (yes you can boot him out but if he ditches all you RPs you are still F*****) 2) not follow orders (as marine) look, this game will get screwed if you have 4 v 4 and one marine desideds to goof off, well then it is 2 on 4 and marines are ******) 3) steal other marines upgrades and then good off etc
My thought had been that if some one was dying a lot/screwing off- couldn't the commander cut him off from respawn? Since it cost RP to do that I think that'd be a convienent thing to have. Of course, if the wrong person go into the CC... hmm. Just have to face it- no matter what game you play a llama could just goof off and do nothing useful. But with the crowd of people I see drueling over this game, I honestly don't think we'll have a big problem here.

Distress Beacon, however, DOES cost many resource points, and allows everyone in the respawn queue to come back into play immediately, for a cost...
Extra spawn gates also cost resource points, but allow your team to come back faster, so...
