The biggest issue for me is the strain on my eyes when trying to play alien.
- With AV off the speed I am moving at makes it hard to focus intently on environment surroundings.
- With AV on I can spot the marines easier, but my eye… -

I'm 99% sure I know something that did change in game. Give me 30 minutes and I'll come back with some screenshots. Biodome creepin' up on every map!
^It's been discussed in other threads. Basically whatever goes back to the server first counts.
Take A0 marines vs base skulks as an example:
My 300ping skulk lands a para on you, then I land 2 bites.
Your 30 ping marin…Just on the ping thing:
I regularly play on US servers and I filter to < 300.
The basic gist is:
If I have 300 ping and you have 30 then you see me 330ms before I see you (if you don't count interp). The opposite of …I think all the Pros you listed are actually Cons in disguise Ironhorse.(Quote)
You are wrong about the skill floor/ceiling.
The skill floor is the base requirement needed to be able to play a lifeform. Disregarding rookies the skill floor for fade is:

I think it's fair to disregard tres/pres investment in the discussion, along with hive tech path. I wasn't trying to argue that shade is better than crag …(Quote) Yeah, I also think phantom is broken (specifically in public play) but aura is worse in my opinion. :POnce again, not talking about hive upgrade paths. Just talking about aura as an ability. Feel it is a broken mechanic and is not needed in ns2 as it takes away so much variability/skill in individual and team play styles.@rantology
My point was that aura is not a huge skill floor boost, but rather a big lowering of the skill ceiling. Covered by your 1st point that good player…Get either team to concede.
Saves a lot of time, it's less frustrating for players. Often after a 15 minute 1 RT turtle the round will finally end and then a third of the players will quit the server.Avoid Reserved Slots Mod

Solid proof: a screenshot of a QL server list.
The rating system in QL doesn't work in my experience. I've been crushed 30-0 by good players, only to join their server later to spec and it says 'Skill Matched'. Me and some fr…I switched to high texture and particle quality, and my screen res was already the same as both of you guys. It's weird as hell since I am still seeing (or not-seeing) skulks 100% invisible.
Even when I know skulks are in the next room, …If that is the case it is very annoying. :P- V-Sync - OFF

Disagree with you @FrankerZ
If you can point out where the skulk is in the first three screenshots of my previous post I will be impressed.
amoral you do realise when people get vote kicked they can instantly rejoin the server? As the OP explained in his original post.
Server size has nothing do to with anything, neither does claiming a racial slur is universal?
<…I am also perplexed by how phantom works currently to be honest. Just like you I have seen skulks going from 100% visibility to ~20% visibility while they are obviously on the move (wall jumping etc, not shift-walking). It also seems like level 1 ph…Plus those of us who use inverted axis start the game with our heads held high, looking to the mighty battle gods for support, while 'normal' users already look to the ground in defeat.(Quote)
