Could not create my own game, also there seems to be a new option to set the game mode when creating a server (marine versus marine, etc), unless I had previously missed it.

I looked up from my signal-systems homework to see the busy-steam icon. Downloading is very slow for some reason... maybe downloading the walking dead is less of a priority? :P
Enter the rr only to seem like I have lagged out - although I can access console etc. Can just see everybody else typing "wtf, im stuck" "I cant move" ....
having typed j1 in the console and waiting 5 mins, I spawned as a marine - only to be unable to move :(
Ah well - I will just wait for the next patch!
Also - I keep getting runtime errors...
After failing to connect to a server, my pointer arrow becomes HUGE - and I get "runtime error" when trying to join, or create a server after.
ok, locally I see better performance but online I still have troubles. The server with the name Dev differs with the client... lol Will look better and inform. And yeah, I got that strange thing where I can't move at all. =)
Well im definately seeing performance improvement. Not having the huge lockout when entering rr anymore. FPS and animations are alot smoother. Commander UI is still a bit clunky though
Huge improvements for me. Everything is much smoother, can actually play now, w/ 10+ players. Still buggy though. Marine started flying all over the place for no reason.

Amazing, whatever the f*** you've done! I can click on my desktop icon and get the menu screen in about 12 seconds and join a server and immediately authenticate and see RR in under 40 seconds.
Runs pretty smooth now, but as soon as someone starts to build a couple of hydras (like 20 or something) it will become an unplayable lagfeast. So don't spam hydras like crazy :)

Worked a LOT better for me. I was on a UK server (I'm from NZ) so laggy as ###### but I got a couple of kills, could move around etc.
One bug I found was I entered just before the game started, but when it started I spawned with no weapons etc, I had to go to readyroom using console then come back to the marine team and spawn before it gave me guns :P
Otherwise choice though :) A real move in the right direction.
the obs is in! with beacon (couldnt test it yet), scan (works fine) and the research upgrade to spawn at your squad instead of ip. couldnt test this feature yet.
there are less lags than before, but still needs work to improve game feeling and hit registration. but so far i would say that its seriously playable for the first time!

WHAT MAKES YOU LIE
scratch that, the second I hit submit it starts patching, lol
+1

but the frames are still very low. but thats because the new non flash gui is not yet in. really looking forward to that!

I was wondering WTF was eating away at my bandwidth, to see Steam doing stuff. NS2 patch is good?
HEY, PROTIP FOR THOSE OF YOU SPAWNING STUCK OR FROZEN IN THE READY ROOM
IT'S HAPPENING BECAUSE YOU'RE JOINING A HIGH PING SERVER WITH ALREADY TOO MANY PEOPLE IN IT
WHATS MORE IS IT'S RUINING EVERYONE ELSE'S EXPERIENCE
STOP ###### DOING IT
FIND A NICE SERVER WITH LESS THEN 6 PEOPLE AND JOIN THAT AND YOU'LL BE RIGHT
