    This patch is very overdue... the servers are very empty at the moment.

    btw, kind of off topic but any word on first person spectating for insight?

    ps: twitter: Making movies, builds, sites, appointments, decisions, changes, gogogo.

    I'm guessing veil reveal trailer for 217

    As soon as Exo is in, someone could make a Hawken mod before Hawken is even out :D

    I think the servers are so empty because CS:GO just came out. I've barely played NS2 since CS:GO came out and I know of a few others who havent played either for the same reason.

    I think the biggest problem with adding exos to the game is actually making them a viable alternative to jetpacks and balancing around that. Right now the onos is basically useless because the marine team will have jetpacks by the time you get the onos out. The only way exos will be made viable is if JPs are made more vulnerable to fades and lerks. That way a choice has to be made between jetpacks or exosuits.

    As things are jetpacks will be the better choice no matter what.

    What if Lerk spore (spike?) was more effective than it is now, requiring Exo suits. That's how I remembered it being in NS1 with the HA

    How about the lerk being able to spray a stream of spores from a position if the lerk isn't gliding. Giving him his defensive from a reasonable distance role again.

    The fuss? CS is single handily the best competitive/casual fps that has ever existed. One of the best mod friendly engines ever at the same time. Its been out since ~2000 and I am so glad to see valve has gone back to its roots of CS mechanics with CS:GO.

    Ha some of the zombie escape maps are pretty fun, but you have to get with people who actually can work together as a team. Not sure if you play on the two or three the ZE_ servers but PM your stem and I will for sure play a few rounds.
