(Quote) I believe that. In my experience though, the most dominant characters I come across are Fades. I know there are players that are really good at other classes, or even tons of classes. But, in my experience, the most devastating time an…

I think players should play the game in whatever way makes it fun, so long as they're not hacking or cheating. If you can go 50:1 while playing as a Fade or Lerk, and that's fun for you, then have at it.

That said, just think about the …

I think the biggest problem is one that's difficult to fix - there's a very high skill ceiling in NS2, so there are some people that are really stinking good. In a game where map control and resources are crucial, one-to-two great players can drast…

in The game is slowly dying, what do you think is the reason? Comment by Enhance89 August 2013

You're absolutely correct. The small player base is blowing this issue way out of proportion. This issue is an extension of the game.

Regardless, it doesn't change the fact that there are a lot of servers with either …

I second weldables. They don't have to stay permashut like they did in NS. Instead, if an alien knocks out a powernode, the weldable door/vent could then reopen.

HMG can stay out. Last thing Marines need is Exosuits w/ dual minis and …

in From NS1 to NS2, what more should UWE bring over? Comment by Enhance89 August 2013

WoW and Everquest are mmorpg's, not FPS. I didn't think I needed to specify, but I was referring to other FPS games NS2 is competing against for players (like TF2, CS, DoD, etc.).

These NS2 servers keep "players playing", in the exact s…

No, NS2 isn't centered around that. But, the current model is certainly frustrating. I'm not blaming server owners for their reaction to the problem, because I think this has way more to do with UWE than it does servers like KKG. But, when everyb…

If you're not joining a server because it's low pop., chances are there are dozens just like you spamming the same full servers to try and find a spot. Dozens of you that would probably play well together. Instead, those low pop servers stay empty…

That looks good. Yes, I think even something simple like this could help a lot of players out.

Right, but games really shouldn't be centered around people who want to pay for extra privileges. This game will be unappealing to new players if they're consistently being kicked/redirected to new servers or being treated poorly …

Very bad idea, any way you slice it. The game would devolve into cloaking and backstabbing marines into oblivion. It would send the game's balance completely out of whack and ruin the game.

NS2 is not like any other FPS. It's n…

in Backstab = instant death Comment by Enhance89 August 2013

I usually refrain from saying something is OP, needs to be nerfed, etc. But, I think Fades are just a little over the top right now. A great fade really is a game over, and an above average fade is worth half an alien team. While I believe they n…

in Fade is absolutely stupid right now Comment by Enhance89 August 2013

NS1's most popular server - G4B2S - was "full" when it had 23/24 players, due to a reserved slot. IIRC, you couldn't even join the server because of the reserved slot. You had to wait until it was 22/24 or less. I've never owned a server and don'…

I could be mistaken, but I thought alien armor was in fact strong than health. The only reason I say this is because I remember a couple of gamers saying build 251 hurt the Onos because armor was lowered, and they went on to describe how armor is t…
