Troy_Rage

<div class="IPBDescription">Anyone know exactly how meny days?</div>i know its got other things but i dont find team unbalincing a prob but i kbow how you could fix that

if a team has more then 2 people then the other team, you cant join and you get booted back to the readyroom, unless you have something better, id use this.

but the lag!!! OH MY FRIKIN GOD!, i know u guys worked hard for this mod and you stil are but i mean, I remember one of you guys actuly said this to me when i asked about lag

"No, It wil not lag! Its got spicey net code" er something like that, but not to offend you but well... you were wrong and i think a lag patch being released is probly the first priority and i know how streful  it can be being a programer and shat but please hurry please.....

It isn't lag. They DO have a spicy net code implemented. It is an error with CPU usage and bottlenecking or something, and the fact that alot of the servers are underpowered. And the patch'll come out when it's done.

oh... so they were right.... STUPID ME

anyways i think the reason aliens get there ##### kicked is because the marines turrets are frikin awsome and o was once an onos and i got my ### kicked by one turret and i dont even think i hurt it!

and I had a light machine gun and i raped a alien turret thing by my self!

and ive never seen an aliens win a match! EVER!

All in good time, Troy, all in good time.

People are acctually learning the basics of the aliens now and more often now I join a server and I see the teams a bit more stable then they used to be since people are starting to understand the values of the aliens.

And the alien offence chambers are acctually quite good if well combined with webs, just the aliens needs a bit more perfection than the marines.
In a couple of days from now the teams will be quite even you just have to give the masses time to learn how to acctually play as an alien.

Actually, Alien offensive towers are weak, 1 tower can be killed single handedly, but they are cheap so gorges always build them until they cant build anymore of them........
Turrets arent that powerfull, but you need to attack and run, attack and run until you kill them, yesterday there was a minibase on the maintenance hive on eclipse, with a turret fac, 4 turrets and a phase gate. Marines where busy fighting all over the map, so i was running, chomping the turrets while jumping and then throwing myselfe of that platform, climbing up and repeating the progress like that until i killed all the turrets....... Just with a little skulk, you just need to do it right.

EDIT: I´ve won 7 matchs playing as an alien.......Marines are really vulnerable on early game.

Thats strange. The other day i joined a lot of sefvers whre my ping was over 1000 but I have found one server that I had a constant ping of 60 to 70 with about 10 players. So what is it? the servers or mod coding, or what?

I've also noticed that I had flawless gameplay, no screen lag at all, when in the team stats it showed my ping as 300+? but everyone else was typing LAG! Do I just have a really good connection? You would think I would get lag at 300+ ping, strange.

The netcode in NS is fine.  It's efficient, it's predicted, it uses less bandwidth then CS even.  The problem is that it's a CPU hog on the server.  I know what the problem is, and I've been working on fixing it for days.  It'll be out ASAP, but no sooner.
