I realized one bonus of the railgun. The railgun exo is fast. You can use that speed to run into a hive and stomp all the eggs.

There might be a way to switch, there might not be. Either way, I really wish there was some documentation that explained how to control the spectator mode, or even change the spectator mode bindings.

I don't know how many fps he's getting, but I get 60fps vertical sync max settings, and that's what the game looks like for me.

I also have the same problem.

I was just reading the changelog, saw this line, came to post it, and found this thread.

What if you try to bluff?
Imagine a gorge building one end of a tunnel in marine territory. The marines will probably assume the other end is in alien land. They go in. Then the aliens close the one-ended tunnel. All the marines that fel… -
If it's one marine and an exo against an onos with no other marines, there, you have already screwed up. The choice between shooting and welding hardly matters. You really need to have at least two marines there with the exo so one can weld and one …

sedek is correct. From the perspective of a non-pro non-cheating a player, a pro or a cheater are effectively identical. Both will kill you very quickly with incredible aim and precision. Even if someone is cheating, what does it matter to you? You …

There should be all sorts of things throughout the game that do exactly 1 damage. I've always thought it was weird how extractors explode violently, but don't do any damage.

You gorgy is so fat he clogged up tram tunnel just by standing there.

On piece of advice I can give is to put the proto lab in a forward base. If you started shipping, but you have repair, put the proto lab in repair. That way if you go exo, they have less distance to travel since they can not use phase gates. The sam…

It is true that children or women might be afraid to use voice chat, but in NS I notice most people actually avoiding voice chat. Could it be there are that many young and/or female players? In that case if they only all started talking, it would be…

I don't know if anyone has come up with this idea before.
What if nano-shield completely nullified the effects of bile bomb? This way as long as the commander is paying attention, and spends the resources, he can delay a gorge bile rush … -
I don't have this problem because I change the sensitivity on my mouse itself when switching between commanding and fighting.

Downloading mods never works for me. Here is what I do. I open the console and I can see a list of all the mods that are trying to download or failed at downloading. I quit NS2 and go to Steam workshop and subscribe to all those mods. I wait for the…

GET A MIC
They cost almost nothing. If you can afford a computer to play NS2 you can afford the $5 to get a microphone.
The only people who have a valid excuse to not get a mic are deaf/mute people. Sadly and unfairly,… -
If NS2 became F2P by selling non-cosmetic game items/upgrades for real cash I would quit and never play again. I play NS2 primarily because it is a fair test of skill. You can't have a fair competitive game if one team can get onos and the other can…

Marine rush at game start on docking from shipping through courtyard into generator. Got lucky, it was the hive. Egg lock and win.
-
(Quote) I am guilty of spending lots of res on extra unnecessary cysts. I just like to completely cover the ground so that marines can't build a phase gate without destroying a cyst and alerting me of their presence. I should build drifters inste…
-
When are you supposed to have time for this? When I alien comm I'm constantly cysting, getting upgrades, building structures, taking mist requests, etc. If I get out, that's going to hurt in ways that are more detrimental than the hydras are benefic…

We were alien team. My memory is hazy, but it was either tram or docking. We were in one of those situations where marines have three tech points and aliens have two. We kept pushing hard and taking out their extractors. It still felt like our loss …
-
The way I see it the professional players and the cheating players have pretty much equal aim. So if someone has incredible aim, I don't care. I figure it's 50/50 they are either pro or cheating, and it doesn't matter which one. The ultimate, (proba…
-
When I do alien comm I tend do spend almost all of the starting resources on harvesters and cysts. I'll take over half of most maps within a minute and have harvesters everywhere. Building a hive immediately I think is an equally viable strategy, bu…
-
(Quote) I also like seeing the familiar faces. There is one particular group of players with names such as Gorge Clooney, Gorge Washington, Curious Gorge, etc. Always good to see them join. Maybe I should start trying to friend people on Steam wh…

Here's how it should work.
Let's say you have a 20 slot server with 4 reserved slots. The server is full, but none of the reserved players are playing. On the server select screen it should be listed at 16/16. If you want to reserve a l… -
Played a game on docking yetesrday where marines rushed gen through courtyard. There were lots of players. Of course the natural alien inclination is to go to locker/departures. Egg lock, hive down so fast.

I disabled vsync for this demo. I usually leave it on the triple buffer setting. If I did that, the graph would be a boring… -
I don't see a problem with conceding for the losing team. We had F4 before. It's no different.
I do see a problem in that I notice conceding happening earlier than F4 used to happen. I don't know if that's actually true, it's just my per… -
I will do this when I get home. Tomorrow at the latest. Always looking for a chance to show off the power of the 680
