Just had to log in to express how much kek this thread delivered to me.
This game... on consoles... cross platform play...
GOTY/Director's Cut might get a tiny spike, but the next week it'll be back to normal. -
Performance may be somewhat better, but loading times still more or less require SSD to be sane.

I don't see the point of any "remaster." This is as good as it can be and imo if there's ever a NS3 it might be a good idea to go back to the drawing board in some respects.
The remakes of old 90's games are only popular because the res… -
I'm sad to consider the possibility of someone pulling their network cable / resetting router when wild pinché marines appear, but I did.

"Dropping" an onos/exo/weapons/etc. on F4/disconnect would be a terrible, abusible idea. Giving you your onos back if you disconnect/reconnect (even if it's not given to anyone else) is also a terrible, abusible idea. Giving res (giveres) to other…

I don't agree with the first argument; I think people go AFK and leave anyway, regardless of whether their team will get screwed because of it. In fact, a lot of people leave exactly when the outlook of the game is too difficult. And when someone …

By the way, it seems like this issue isn't isolated to NS2 :-) . I thought it's a bit amusing myself.

Makes me happy. "Please, not Jambi" was the first thing I thought when I saw this announcement.
I don't know why people like that map so much. It's ugly in an unfinished-quake2-mod way, and in my opinion doesn't even … -
Some feedback on this "system." Recently, I've had some "force balance" games where average skill is shown on the scoreboard, and you can't f4 or switch in any way.
Some of them were good, some of them were really bad.

RAM disk CAN be useful.
Yes, SSD is cheaper. But say you already have 16GB or more of RAM for another reason (you do video editing, the computer "just came" with 16GB, your mom was building the computer and she thought moar ram=moar fas… -
Yeah, that's what I was thinking as well - less interpolation because servers run better. But I don't know. It feels weird though, maybe it's just me. And it's just skulk.
Also, I appreciate adding a specific binding to the comm scree… -
I had this happen this weekend. It's pregame mod related. The entire team could consistently xeno after pregame at round start. But only once. Not really game breaking, but probably needs fixed if it hasn't yet :-) .

I understand the thinking behind the different alien visions, but I'm not really happy with the current one.
In my opinion, it's too minimal and subtle, to the point where it doesn't really matter much whether you have it off or on. The… -

It's not a scam; it's just dumb and unnecessary to spend $30 on it in my opinion. Unless you really like it for some reason. It's your money, but just be aware that there's other options and make an intelligent choice.
Is it just me or anecdotally does skulk just "feel" different to anyone else? I'm not sure if the bite cone has been changed in distance (shorter?) or there's something with the netcode, but it feels like it's more difficult to bite marines, in som…Gosh, as I was playing pregame on aliens evolving gorge, putting tunnel next to marines for lulz, and then evolving lerk or something again, I thought: "Hypermutation."
I remember the days when an onos would go around the corner and dev…Noticed that as well yesterday. Server was also running mods (nothing too crazy, just ns2+ and pregame).Can't say I've ever tried it in that spot specifically, but maybe I will now that you insist ^_^ .
Edit: Are we talking about mineshaft central getting onto the railing from underneath? Challenge accepted.
Edit2: I played …I'm not sure what the solution is to be honest, because before cooldown or if cooldown isn't global you used to be able to completely block arcs from firing, like 100% cockblock, which is too OP in my opinion. That isn't to say it wasn't incredibly…I don't know if I'd go so far as to say that "ermahgerd ceilings and 90 degree angles are impossible" but I think that pressing wallwalk should make you "perfectly sticky." I remember it being a lot more "sticky" than it is now, to the point where …It growls, but it's purposely quiet and hard to tell where it's coming from, and if it's behind you it's usually too late when you hear it.
As far as the marine-skulk fights, there probably is room for improvement, but what does "improve…Well, you're pretty special, aren't you?
BTW as far as badges go, the idea was that you don't play for "rank" like in BF or COD or whatever, you just play for fun. At least that's what Hugh I think was saying around release.
…Lol trails... Maybe an indicator of "the marine jumped this way -> " ?
It's NS2. If you start going this way, what are you going to do next, remove the vertical component of blink? Make lerks croak as they fly around...?

There's like... THREE of them, lol. "Most."Ink used to be extremely useful against arcs, but with the cooldown now this has been severely nerfed. I still use it if I have a shade hive available. As a audiovisual-confusing ability for marines, it's kind of okay, although I feel like you can…The game has changed somewhat, not sure if towards better or worse. But I feel like some things work "best" since the last major rebalance (~251 or whenever the better hallucinations were added?), and that is kind of a problem.
For exam…(Quote)
I was thinking about that yesterday, but my brain is pretty wired to hit the keys relative to Q and A for commanding. I'm not sure if I can get used to the new grid, but I'll try it today.
