    He has a point that games were harder in the past, way more harder, but I agree he shouldn't have said in quite general terms modern gamers couldn't handle it, especailly in this game where difficulty is quite high.

    It's a very odd thing video games dying, or at-least barely played, because physical games like chess or monopoly never do, I just believe the over saturation of the market causes games to drop off, though funnily enough most games…
  • The only reason I have a lot of hours is because I only play a handful of games, I am very particularly which game I play, unlike most people who will buy loads of games and play them for a little bit, I guess we can blame Steam sales, but yea.

    Aren't we all, well I hope so, but I don't deny I'm a gamer, and when I was working 16 hours a day, still was trying to play for a couple of hours, though much easier to find time now that I have a normal working hours, but I heard…

    I'm slightly be-hide, but why uninstall, did our team do that badly? : ) Though come check out the grenades, quite awesome, also good for people that can not aim *cough* SNB *cough*.

    But ignore the glaring issues like b…

    I disagree again, both those games have a lot of little things people don't know about, but I'll agree that they do a better job at explaining the basics, but for more complicated stuff, Dota is terrible even more so then NS2, for …

    I can not agree, plenty of games separate, Starcraft, Dota 2 and so on and those two games I'd say have more of a learning curve then this game.

    As I said, you can still allow Rookies to go on other servers, also there …

    Hey, being British, I don't even know what baseball or elementary school(I do, but it goes against being British heheh, it's primary school damn you and cricket is better) is. I'd prefer a grading system then a split, because would…

    Lets be thankful that UWE doesn't concentrate making this game a deathmatch, I prefer that kills are mostly a means to an end, it's quiet funny I'm one of those guys who gets a decent K/D and people ask how, and I say by playing th…

    And you said what? Oh yea nothing, not even if the skill to be eloquent, sure cheap jibes can be fun, but in the end add nothing and mean nothing, also something that seems prevalent is people saying they're correct or have sussed …

    I've given up trying to tell people this, but I'm being silly and ridiculous, for taking the meaning literally.

    Though funny that only Chris(thumbs up to you) had any debating skills to actually try to counter my point …

    I have only responded in what the direction the thread has gone, someone brought up casual and enjoyment and I brought my thoughts to the fore ground, but no-one even you have shown why my views are "ridiculous", and I wasn't argui…

    My point is that at all levels it is competitive, in these type of games there is no divide, just different skill levels.

    Sure, but both this game and Football are meant to be played competitively, is the reason why most play both to win, to feed their competitive side, which fuels their enjoyment(subjective), but how angry do strangers get when they …

    Please elucidate, what did you find silly?

    Though would have been nice to ask what you lot didn't understand, instead of getting on your high horse, also a counter argument, maybe expecting too much from a forum.

    So you had the time before, but not now. There you go your point invalidated, also there's no such thing as a casual gamer in a inherently competitive game, if you play casually you're playing it wrong, also being something of nuis…

    You do realize that everyone who plays this game is a competitor, this game revolves around competition, they are no causal players in this types of games, the developers intended this game to be played competitively.

    Yep, anyone who thinks the RTS side takes precedent is a bit dim, looking at Herakles and Metal man here.

    This game is about 80% FPS and 20% RTS, there's a greater argument about increasing the RTS portion, then the FPS…

    Completely correct, though nuance isn't people's strong point, people see an FPS format and think standard FPS genre, but that's where they're wrong, it'd be better if they advertised it that way, saying guys we've got this RTS gam…

    None of those are complicated, it's not hard to build power nodes or place cysts(also a common complaint is that they're a very dull), and people do complain quite a bit about tech-points removing the ability to make up unique tact…

    there's your problem, UWE, too much focus on the FPS, firstly the engine has issues maintaining consistent FPS, which rules out the fast pace of it, just means who has the better computer wins, 99% of people won't approve of that.<…

    I'm guessing you didn't play NS1, which had no Alien commander, in all honesty the aliens never missed a commander, the gorge filled the role much better, laying down upgrades and structures.

    Also about overlay vision, …
  • Chess anyone? That game is never going to die, unless the human race dies, funnily enough only video games(maybe too many are made? Could be, too many crap games are made) seemed to be plagued by this issue of dying out, not all, but most.

    Though a good skulk should beat lesser marines, though a good marine will still do well against a good skulk, the problem in vanilla is that even if you're a good skulk you will still get destroyed.

    I agree the shotgun …

    Three bites(also need more bites as armour upgrades are done), only two if parasites are involved, though in essence it rewards accuracy, but has been made easier with the wider cone, though it's about time the skulk get some love,…

    I too prefer the vanilla fade, but that's because it's easier to use and quite overpowered for it is, many times I've seen a fade destroy a team, a team of them can
    destroy a marine team in matter of seconds.

  • There is barely any strategy in 18+ servers, it all comes down to, who has the most in one spot, that's it, and you saying that people perform different roles on higher count servers, which is bull, every match you get mines, shotguns, jetpacks and …

    I'm trying to think what's actually being taken out, I can come up with about two. No armor healing with the armory and no double jump shadow step, most of the balance test is tweaks of things already in the game, I'd say more has …

    relatively pleased with that. :)
