    And as much as this has probably been said often enough, the new lerk flight system rocks. Bigtime.
    You can probably tell Flayra was as excited to make the announcement as we all are to hear it. <span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>psst, Flayra: might want to clarify that 200 bugs and exploits have been <i>fixed</i> in this version, not <i>made</i> <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> </span>

    LOL

    Anyway, I think it's happened again lol

    NS 1.1 -> NS 2.0
    NS 2.1 -> NS 3.0

    Weird cycle....I really think you should take some rest after the release NS dev team, after all, I think you guys have overworked yourselves <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    EDIT : 5th post!! LOL and 5 is my lucker number <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
    EDITEDIT : And he made the update when I was in school :/ Now I really wish I skipped school :/

    3.0 is much more different than any NS yet.

    2.0 compared to 1.0 isn't nearly as different as 3.0 will be.



    So little is the same in 3.0.

    Shooting and biting is still there, but overall I'd say so far the games mechanics are improved...

    Esp for biting, biting is much easier now I've noticed... lag won't cause you to miss a badly.

    I bet you that nearly everyone's been expecting this number change, I never doubted that he would do this. Looks like Flayra cant help but make huge revisions <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Cheers NS dev team, may you have as much success as you did with ns 1.0 and 2.0.
  • QwertyQwerty Join Date: 2003-06-30 Member: 17817Members
    3.0 is a big number compared to 1.0 Which was NOT too LONG ago ^_^

    Excellent job with NS. This should prove to be as great a version as any.
  • XentorXentor Join Date: 2002-11-03 Member: 5877Members
    Oh cool... I get to play 3.0 AND meet devs at the LAN party on Saturday... Fun fun.

    Is it just me or does it seem that NS will never get a x.1 patch? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
    Either way.. Its all good. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Notice a pattern here? Quick bug fixs soon after release then massives ammounts of new content for the next version. No complaining here.

    Erm, does anybody know if 3rd person reload animations are still in?

    Only thing I'm worried about is general balance. Pub play seems fine right now (with the exception of n00b comms) but clan games between two equally skilled teams is nearly always an alien win :\.

    But w00t on 3.0. Just watch, a few months from now we'll be on 5.0 <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->.

    my god, since i used to only play VS, and was on those forums, they release a new version like once every 2 years, and after NS was released, I switched over, expecting the same, but I was wrong.....its amazing how fast the NS dev team spits this excellant quality stuff out! this holiday season means really soon, right? not like a Christmas gift? lol, I couldnt wait that long, even though its not that far away.

    Very good job NS team.

    Right now since they are fresh new and this game has been out for a year. Releases come out quickly, but over time, don't forget, they'll slow.

    Anyways, I can't wait to try out this "new" lerk flying thing. *hopes it has the control of a jet* Haha imagine that, if so..i'll be pimping out my Saitek X45 joystick for it lol.

    Holiday release? Tommorow is a holiday..release theN? lol or Xmas?

    *Breathes a sigh of relief*

    I dont think I can take much more of this drama/anticipation, at least we all know its going to be worth the wait. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You probably could indeed use your joystick. Just have a button that changes your config to "Lerk" and enables Joystick. With the new flight looking down and gliding or flapping = Divebombing lerk. While pulling up and flapping or gliding will send you to the clouds.

    Enjoy your Jet with giant mouth and gaping teeth <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    And here I thought lerks were sopposed to be for annoying people only, even I might try lerking now.

    The new Lerk flight is indeed something to look forward to, and with the bite back in, it is just amazing fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
