i have a trouble deciding who disgust me more: the people who've never even touched ns_ or the people who continnously diss co players for the sake of looking good in front of the forum goers.

I never touch CO, played it about... 6 times or so, It's just not NS (to me not to you I'm sure). No <!--emo&::hive::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/hive5.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='hive5.gif' /><!--endemo--> , No need for a <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif' /><!--endemo--> and No <!--emo&::sentry::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/turret.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='turret.gif' /><!--endemo--> = No NS.
And no I'm not new to NS, I just don't post. I started play 2 weeks after NS came out.
there is a <!--emo&::hive::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/hive5.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='hive5.gif' /><!--endemo--> in co as well as some of these <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif' /><!--endemo--> (although they should go). granted that there are no <!--emo&::sentry::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/turret.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='turret.gif' /><!--endemo--> but to be honest i think that's the best thing in combat.
1 start hive, no more. Like I said, <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif' /><!--endemo--> aren't needed, never said they weren't there. If I wanted something like CO, I'd just go play CS. That I believe (Just my ThoughT) is why they made CO, to get more ppl playing and where better to look then in CS.

There's no minimap in CO because it's pure combat, so I guess they decided that the map takes up a bit too much of the screen. Plus it's not like the maps are hard to navigate, there's one - three ways from the hive/marine start to the marine start/hive. Same goes for the "press C to get a big map": they're simple enough not to need one.
Either that or because CO pretty much just happened (it didn't really evolve slowly like the current NS did, at least, not in the public's eye) maybe they didn't have the time to make the minimaps for it.
And I think that if you have Motion Tracking, aliens show up as red blips on both the minimap and the press-c-to-show-map map... Don't know about SoF though.
Combat used to have the map earlier in beta. I think it was removed because of a bug where the other team always showed up as MT dots regardless of whether or not you had the upgrade. Or maybe it was because the often vertically-layered co_ maps didn't work very well on a minimap, I don't really remember.
I didn't say CO was to be dissed. I was trying to say that CO should be the fun aspect of NS,and I too dislike the CO whingers. They treat CO as if it was the only game on here. Anyways,if CO had minimap then the marines would be advantaged.

co did have a pull up map and mini map like ns maps in the consti beta. It was initially dropped IIRC as there was a bug where you could see the entire opposing team as red blips as per MT in NS, but applied to aliens as well.
I suppose it was decided not to bother sorting it and re-instating it for the reasons mentioned in previous posts.

Ns is great for long battles and plenty of fun to be had!
Personally i like playing both CO is funny but in match length fun i prefer NS.
and by the way its my personal opinion and thats what every1 gives in threads

Obligatory I'm-right-your-opinion-is-wrong comment.
A minimap would be too much of an advantage.
