<div class="IPBDescription">lost the motivation to play Classic ns?</div> I don't know about others, but personally, I lost motivation and interest to play ns classic, for some reason I find combat much more fun, may be its cause you get to kill faster and u have a faster access to all kind of weapons. Lately I’ve been avoiding joining any server that is on an ns map and not co map
I'm not saying that ns classic is bad or anything, it just seems to me that combat is much more fun or should I say, interesting then classic ns...More likely, Combat is taking over Classic
What do u guys think?

Maybe if NS classic had some sort of direction, instead of pointless battles, in pointless locations, faught by pointless rambo's, like myself. If NS classic's gameplay had some sort of direction or structure then it would be much more fun.
it just goes in circles :-)
I don't want to get to the point of talking about commanders...just wana say 2 thing bout it now,
-Less and less people (experienced) want to be com
-more and more noobs are going com
Just wish there was another game with a similar mix of commanding and FPS... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
combat is fun if there's someone u know well playing with you, and not too much people & lag. i'd say above 7vs7 & 100 ping, co becomes pretty unbearable.
Ya I agree, Classic ns is fun on certain servers, and these are what you can call "Rare servers" there aren't a lot of them...
The moment where no one is using his microphone (specially com) every thing is gone... cause writing messages takes 2 much time, even if it's just a small thing, it could cost your team a lot... I’ve seen many aliens dying because they were alerting their team of an enemy presence in their hive.
Therefore, I have to say that most of the time, you have more fun playing combat then Classic.
combat is ridiculous - the amount of new players that flock to combat because of it's easy to learn gameplay is ridiculous. I can't stand the lack of teamplay with combat.
classic is amazing - i love being marines and turing the game around by beacon rushing a hive when the aliens have the edge... i love being aliens and having all the rts on the map - and having your hive being beaconed rush... i love long games where your the commander and your marines work together and keep pressuring rts and whatnot - and at the end they congratulate you on a meaningless game that means the world for those 30 minutes that your commanding... classic is fun - and will always be...
<!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /><!--endemo-->... classic is where its at...
Combat is like a Siege map, mindless fun between the normal NS maps ... but not the Real Deal <i>tm</i> <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Its just opinion, i find it extremely dull being blown apart by thousands of fast respawning skulks xenociding, or being destroyed by grenades spewed forth onto the hive from jetpackers above.
ns_ games are much more fun (albeit only the right server) because its tactically challenging, and different each time.
To each his own
I think it is there aint the same teamplay on public like it was before :/
So pepuls start playing combat insted. "1 mans army"
Well said.
Personally I never like combat and seriosuly doubt I ever will. If they got rid of ns_ then I'm out of here because personally that's all I care about.
If you want to play Team Deathcmatch, try CS, DoD, or TFC. They're all popular and fun.
But I prefer classic more because it's what I learned back in 1.04
Combat is taking over because its simpler and more fun than Classic in the current build. It should always be simpler, but I know Classic can be much more rewarding to play than Combat. Once they slow the RTS aspect down and establish a better balance between marines and aliens, I think that Classic will start attracting far more players.
CO is some useless addition to attract the mindless hordes of CS'ers that eventually spill over into our NS games and refuse to listen or learn and ruin the game.
As soon as a CO map comes on I leave the server, I've almost forgotten it exists.
But co is a nice spice for something between few friends.
I've been saying it. I've been saying it. Haven't I been warnign about that? Someone pull up a thread with me bitching and arguing against incorporating combat.
Damned sad if you ask me. We've traded out this mod to having shorter games and the idea of a "bridge." A fanciful rainbow bridge of wonder to help CS jerk learn to play NS. Wheeeeeeee! H4x h4x h4x Omg teh eh da shiznite! The whole thing about a "bridge" was: because we are going to do it and you can't stop us hahaha. Seriously, people <s>come</s> came to NS because it was unique and different and cool SciFi-ish with and RTS aspect.
"Combat taking over NS?" Ha! Sounds about as intelligent (actually lack of) as:
"TFC is dying"
Is it laziness, stupidity, n00bs (newbies are good because they want to learn which is the contrast between newbies and n00bs, in otherword n00b are ignorant and don't want/try to learn)? Who knows? But it's ticking my defenses off what ever it is.
I hate brat clans and CS kiddies... It ruined CS, I'm goign to try damn hard not to let it happen to NS.
PS: Can you tell that I'm PO-ed?
It's depressing. =[
1: good
2: in a clan

Yeah! You warned us! Damn combat -- only thing keeping half the player base coming back to NS -- damn it to hell!
CO is evil! I mean, its not like its more popular than Classic or anything -- its not like its the only reason some guys play NS.
Damn popular game modes that keep the game alive!
Thanks for warning us.

...and it's Sentry 1, x5 0.
If they rereleased 2.01 for Steam, I would not be playing 3b5.
Classic lost appeal when it got dumbed down. Combat will always be good because it's a simpler game mode. Classic needs to be more RTS for it to be really worthwhile, and we're all hoping that the Dev team thinks RTS with the beta 6 build that they release.
