I Haven't Played In 2 Years...

<div class="IPBDescription">I'm coming back</div> Where can I find out what all the new changes and stuff were added to the game. I haven't played since they first put in combat and I'm looking to make a comeback.

Oh god, it's horrible. Combat's taken everything over. No, not combat really, but a hellish 50-level incarnation of hell that calls itself combat! OH GOD RUN WHILE YOU CAN! DON't... aaAAAAAAHHHHH (dies)

gellin stay off combat-servers and you'll be fine. Also set your cl_cmdrate to like 50-60 to prevent people whining about them not beeing able to hit you.

Welcome back friend. Stay away from NS and just stick with Combat, you'll thank me later. I'll join in some games also.

Worst advice ever.

Stay away from Combat.

If you are inclined to join a combat server (spit) and discover that marines have armour 300+ and onos's are perma charging all over the place..... you just entered the /menu bastardisation of CO.

What you need to know in these strange servers are the 2 following simple commands:

/menu in teamchat brings up as you may have guessed a new menu with l337 hacks

And in really super evil CO you get /buildmenu as marine you need a welder and as alien you must be gorge, you can then drop tf's turrets, obs, pg, ocs, dc, mc etc.. blah blah.

My advise is, if you see the above going on leave the server <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> but then again depends on what floats yer boat

/Edit also dunno if siege maps where around then or not but they also suck, nice fad when they first arrived, but bit crap after a while, once again depends on whatever floats yer boat

You need to play NS the way it was ment to be played, with levels in NS mode and lerklift and roll the dice and turreNt spam and comm's telling you you're in delta squad bravo and getting kickbanned for not going gorge and dropping an OC in the hiveroom at the start of the game, fku combat!

You call that super evil?!? I guess you have never seen "rollthedice", which may cause you to spontaneously explode, get noclip(whomever does allways flies into the hive/CC and tries to kill it from the inside until the timer on noclip runs out) and many other gameplay braking cheesy effects.

Heskey

Roll the dice is only fun on custom CS maps <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
