it might be convenient to use the raw maps and mark e.g. arc/upgrade-positions somehow (even paint would do).
raw maps are found here: wiki.unknownworlds.com/ns2/Map_Index -
when i first read about this somewhere, i was concerned the names could clutter the minimap. after testing it hands-on, i'd say this is not the case and that there is indeed a massive benefit, not only for the commanders. can't see any reason not to…

well at least we now know (Quote) so if it's actual new content, it's either something new and unexpected or something making a comeback from ns1.
in the first case, speculation is pretty much in vain. in the second case, the only thing that… -
what if the elf is called oberon? ^^

wether its filmed or you have a "live audience" (even if it only were the participants) makes not much of a difference imo. the only difference would be that you either improvise or have a script (if you improvise, it's usually still prepared to a c…

related, here's an ancient thread of patches long past, covered in a thick layer of infestation by now.
please, treat it as read-only as replying to a 2 year old thread might be considered an act of necromancy, upsetting the forum gods.

for quite some versions, i have a bug which will let my first attack-click be ignored sometimes. it seems to be present when respawning but sometimes also after evolving. to be a bit more precise: even if i keep the mouse pressed for a longer time, …

i remember how they did that early on, also asking for ideas / feedback on how to improve their upcoming concepts _before_ they made it into the game. the community provided a LOT here, but maybe they don't want that anymore as the game is more stat…

Master of Orion 2, Alien Swarm (it started as ut2k4 mod), Diablo 1&2, various c&c titles, warcraft2&3, certain snes games.
And, of course, Natural Selection 1&2in I got the 10 year badge. It has been a pretty fun 10 years. Comment by Laosh'Ra April 2014

thats a really nice idea, but i'm a bit worried they might sell the profiles for commerical interest.
well, i don't mind tailored commercials (they are easy to ignore), but the fact that google licensed "dynamic pricing" recently is quite scar… -
oh i didn't know that, thanks.
i'm all in favor of tips that are not covered by natural gameplay (as in you can easily overlook it even after playing a few matches):
"While respawning as alien, leftclick on the map to chose a location." -
i think the initial post does not cover all groups:
there are people lured in by the eye candy of awesome models etc. in a marine vs alien setting and/or the promising potential of having a player-based command structure and assymetric gampepl… -
just gave this mod a try and its quite fun! i like how basically every equipment is actually viable (maybe except mines).
most epic match lasted an hour with "most rts" acting as a tie-breaker after 1 hour filled with lots of turnarounds… -

what do you guys think about being able to see the health of selected enemy players?
just today, i communicated that an onos was around 200 health so someone on the field went all-in and brought him down. while that felt awesome, it seems a bi… -
personally, i dislike cosmetics which don't fit the theme as they can ruin the atmosphere. but i'm well aware that a big portion of this community is always up for a good, possibly silly joke :>
how about a mod which allows the player… -
whoa... i'm so torn between (Quote)
if you're really getting one for kharaa too, maybe cory/rantology could make something for you? can't speak on their behalf ofc., but this is a major thing which will stick with you for many decades, so i… -
i also think jps are balanced as they are. the fact that they are easier to use than e.g. fade is no excuse for nerfing them just because they are more approachable.
cargo is a very extreme example of jps having a huge advantage in there… -
thats an awesome approach! it's not so easy to grasp though:
1a. the title "Faster convergence (not used)" confuses me, if the update rule in that chapter is NOT used, then which one is (since the earlier one does not cover comman… -
tova, you could teach rookies how to kickvote if a particular player annoys them too much. even if the vote fails, a significant amount of "yes" might get that person thinking at least.

looking good. imo the biggest issue about HUDs is that everyone has a different taste.
so what i'd REALLY like to have, is a modular HUD where everyone can (de)active whatever parts they want.
even better (but probably too much work) wou… -
yay it's working again!

i was able to play a bit before steam issues started. it seems performance improved quite a bit for me, although i cannot be sure yet having only played on one server so far.

minor issue: ran initial optimisation, clicked on the gather-thingy and it got stuck in a white screen except the back button (which did not work). restarting the game fixed the issue.
since most servers are still empty, i'll finally give this… -
Many people insist on "Gather" but I also think this term alone is not clear enough.
So as a compromise I'd suggest it should be prolonged with a second term e.g. "Gathered Match", "Gathered Join" or "Gathered Play". -

cheers for a realistic model. a bit more distinguishable from the male version would have been nice indeed but i prefer this 10x over the typical prostitute outfits in other games.
