We are not doing anything to weed out 'non-team players', as that's too subjective and would require a much higher level of scrutiny. It's also … -
@IeptBarakat
If you are bad to the point of being comparable to a rookie, then I'd give you a pass. If you notice that you're getting an inordinately high … -
It's currently named just 'Noobs ONLY server', and it's hosted in Chicago, IL.

There is also a fundamental difference in personality at work in most of these cases. Some people enjoy being thrown to the wolves and clawing their way… -

I know I could play competitively if I was interested, and DFA has enough talent that I think we'd actually do quite well in the lower divisions, I … -
@IronHorse
I do agree that casual player feedback is typically unreliably at the very best. That definitely complicates things.
Nevertheless, I d… -

I played thousands of hours of NS1, and I have over 1300 so far in NS2, but I still consider myself a 'casual' because I only play pub games and give 0 flips about competitive play. I know a lot of people that are the exact s… -
Great vid, ISE!

@Hugh
You mistake me, sir. I read your reply very carefully, and then I did it again twice more. I don't think you're a right prick at all - on the contrary, I th… -

Some of us are upset because UWE just asked us for money to continue developing NS2, and now UWE is offering to cover part of the expense of this tournament that only directly affects a handful of people. Think about it like … -

They need to stop doing these until they fix the game. So many wasted opportunities already, the well might already be dry.

I had low expectations going into this, and I was still disappointed.

The elite server isn't really 'our' server. We paid for it, sure, but we've also essentially given it to the competitive community for their own use and washed our hands of it. We don't generally play there, we don't moderate it, w… -

Language is just a medium for the expression of ideas and emotions. People who don't swear usually just replace those words with 'tame' versions (dang, crap, freaking, etc) that nevertheless convey the exact same idea or intent. As such, I don't car…

I would have bought it.

As mentioned elsewhere, DFA is hosting a ROOKIES ONLY server for this free weekend. We will try to keep a DFA member in the server at all times to babysit, but we could probably use some help from mentors with the coaching. I want to try and give th…

@PaLaGi
Fair points, which I also have no immediate solution for.
For the duration of the free weekend, I would appreciate it if vets would gently r… -
DFA is hosting a ROOKIES ONLY server for the weekend. We are going to be actively babysitting it so that any non-rookies will be kicked unless commanding.
Vets are welcome to make use of our ELITE NS2 server or primary DFA server instead. -

Yep, did that. Tried entering my forum handle the first time, which I think it didn't like. Changed it to my associated email address, still nothing.

Also, forum badge isn't working for some reason. What am I missing here?

Disappointed that the Onos tier sold out before I even knew it existed. Settled for buying shadow tier and more steam copies to give away.
I am frustrated with the current patch and the direction of development, but I still love UWE and … -

You make some fair points, but you say that you favor "games that allow and represent the vast differences between skilled and unskilled players", and a fun…
