What on earth possessed me to come check these forums today of all days? Must have been my wishin for the good ol days.

I'm just impressed that a UI change is getting more attention than the blatantly game-changing medpacks. Our community is indeed special.

Correction of my statement: It sucks for the server ops in question. -
It doesn't matter if new players leave because they joined a modded server. The metrics don't affect the fact that NS2, the game being advertised on the steam store, and the game that some rookie was interested enough in to buy, has an "intended" ve…

The best fix for this would be to preserve filters between sessions, assuming this was yet another change targeted at ensuring that rookies find the most 'vanilla'ish experience.
More veteran players just click "all" then that's that, on… -
Here's a problem with this argument:
Good Gameplay does usually require good balance.
But Good Balance doesn't make Good Gameplay.
NS2 has traditionally been balanced for 6v6. Those days have faded some with the concess… -

I need my lift-kit in my Double Bro-Fist Exosuit with some chains hanging off of it. -
I think the main purpose behind them costing res is so that they are a res-sink for marine pres. 3res is a small amount, but one per death adds up some times.
So the reason you can't just make them free is mainly that the sink will be go… -

Perhaps they're just another sellable to you, since you won't appreciate the coolness factor. -

Funnily enough, this was a fix to everyone complaining about Macs always getting in their LoS during fights. People just never got the memo that that bit was fixed, so they keep trying to look at the mac while it's really trying it… -

Well that's depressing to know that less than 1% of all the people who have this game have fired it up since the acheivements launched. -

I'm pretty sure this happens when trying to place one cyst chain immediately after another. E.g. From Atrium, cyst straight to Reactor's RT, then immediately to Crevice's before the first cyst is fully "grown", the cyst chain won't… -
The issue with the AFK spawn thing is that if you spit people out, it becomes much more difficult to grind down an IP as aliens. Mind you, that's not necessarily a bad thing, but since there's no indication of what direction they'll spawn in for ali…

I think normal buildings don't have LoS any more, but if so, that's definitely a bug. I know powernodes still do.
Also the map "seeing" through thing walls/doors bug is annoying. -
Lifeform Eggs are visible/detectable by marine team several ways (beyond whichever one is being misted).
Looking at your map, lifeform eggs appear in their different form for the marine team, rather than just being another egg. They look… -
Mendasp has stopped adding new features to NS2+, but will continue accepting Pull Requests on github.
Unfortunately, you're outta luck if it's not already in NS2+.
I thought for sure there was a location name toggle. But why … -
Were you a commander most of the time?

I remember a game on Medi's captains server where I think three exos jumped through a tunnel. Only to have the gorge rapidly drop both ends of a new one, killing everyone inside. It was one of the more painful things to ever happen… -

In this case, A REAALLY BAD DAY. -
That first guy is about to have a bad day.

Could also do ns2_dark and ns2lg_dark since they're two different gamemodes now. -

I prefer Blizzard's "Soon™" -
The thing with balance change mods is "Where is the line?"
Where does a balance mod cross the line to be "too much"?
I think it's just safer to leave them all out.
As far as playercount goes, I'd love to see Hive2… -

I agree wholeheartedly, however do note that one key point of frustration seems to be that as a community a crapton of ideas were thrown together in that "Simplifying NS2" thread, and a fair number of people probably want to see so… -

So just because you don't see it, it doesn't affect you?
I don't know what servers you play on, if you play on ones where the admins don't mind having limited control over a lot of the way the server operates, more powe… -
Oh shit. I totally forgot the Chatbox. Wtf isn't that in vanilla?

Shine wins the award for the most taken-for-granted mod on the workshop... Wonder what would happen if it disappeared for a few days (hint: It wouldn't be pretty).
EDIT For Scope:
