I just saw the front page and, i dont mean to sound ungrateful but.... how is a page that tells when tournes are going to "change the way ns is played"?

I mean its pretty cool for clan'ers i guess but what about pubs, i cant see how they are affected.

oh well.

    just read that too................ maybe that isnt the new change, I mean they did say it was a 'system', not just a 'change'.

    That clearly isn't the new system, and you do sound ungrateful

    Not to worry, we've got a large reserve supply of cats.

    But they do say that it will change the way NS is played, which is what they said about the "new system."

    I don't think it is; Flayra's news update mentions the upcoming competitive NS site as well as the big new secret system.

    Although I do think built in Pick Up Game support would change the way NS is played ... literally ...

    This is the relevant quote:

    <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->Besides having links to international competition news, demos and strategies, it will be the home for official NS tournament signup and will host some exciting new features that are in the works. We're not ready to announce everything yet, but we think we're going to change how NS is played everywhere.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    That phrasing implies that the stuff they're not ready to announce is part of the website venture: exciting new features, as <i>hosted by the website</i>. So I think that rules out any sort of in game system like a new way of respawning or resource system, etc.

    but i don't see how a new website hosting system will change the way ns is played.

    I would bet my two cents that if its a game play change, then it would almost certainly be elimination of DMS by unchaining chambers...

    D M S on pubs is one of the most boredom-inducing aspects of NS as it stands.

    Grenade spam in combat is the second.

    But I doubt either of those is going to change, and honestly, I don't think it's the dev's fault. So I'm open to any other major changes they want to bring in.
