  • have you stopped and restarted your server?

    worked for me ... not sure if that actually makes much difference!
  • (Quote) Who's gonna comm the rookies? what happens when rookie comms leave green status and join a non rookie server ... and think they have to build turret factories everywhere, with macs, because they are used to playing against aliens who can…
  • so how do i work out how many hours i have played sucked?
  • I got a GREAT idea. Lets make everyone line up against the wall and make the team captains pick sides!
  • couldn't find anywhere else to post it, soooo ...

    used the steam sale to pick up the deluxe NS2 package, and have to say that thoroughly love the soundtrack. my daughter mistook it for the arkham city soundtrack, and i find it quite remi…
  • Had an issue last night with a drifter that got stuck "under" the stairs at east wing, right next to the power node (not the escalator, the normal stairs that aren't supposed to have a gap under them). Got the drifter out after about 5 minutes but …

    To support the esteemed Roominator:

    Stalemates become apparent very quickly in b250 but are oddly more challenging to break (as alien). As marine, you just get your 1 hive JP and faceroll.

    Really disappoint…
  • please could someone save me 86 pages of drudgery and kindly list the mod ID so I can add it to my server command line, please?

  • (Quote) We have a server in the UK with a regular 100-150 player base, which is full every night. The only player who plays on our server, and has played the BT mod, is Roobubba; a very prominent forum member. Everyone else is completely oblivi…
  • If you come to our server and faceroll I am going to ask you to play support or hoof you off the server. We have a regular player base, a lot of familiar names that rely on us to make sure games are fun.

    One (or more frequently, 3 or 4)…

    It was the limit on where structures could be built that ruined my day in NS1 v2.0; my favourite tactic was a CC relocate to double res or a strategic location (red room on nothing, double res on bast and veil) with a healthy turre…
  • i dont necessarily mean immersion breaking. if a skulk can get within melee range then the odds should be very heavily in its favour, considering it has no ranged attack to counter the marine's LMG, which works just as well at melee range as it doe…

  • Ref marines moving faster than skulks - getting facerolled before you even get within biting distance is not fun. there are no circumstances where what is in essence a quadripedal predator should be outpaced by a hopscotching marine doing the crouc…

  • will do. out of interest it was skylights on veil, and bar on docking. the day before it was maintenance on docking. only marine RTs were effected. tried swapping comms in case it was a local issue - no joy.

    will report back tonight …
  • we have had this problem on our server - we are running DAK
  • went to a friend's house for dinner two nights ago - we were both massive gaming fiends back in the day and he casually asked what i am playing now. when i mentioned NS2 he said "that looks horrendously complicated". another gaming friend plays ns…
  • you mean like "Scar", from BSG?  An ace Cylon raider that had a visually distinguishing battle scar on its hull?  The Galactica pilots would break down in fear if they recognised hi…

  • as a former admin for DOD and NS1, for fairly large UK communities back in the day, i have to say that it's the admin's problem, not yours. If you can get hold of the admins, then great; if you can't, just change server. this is bad for the life o…

    GET TO THE RED ROOM!

    Allow me to modify my position slightly:

    In cases where the enemy team is making serious attempts to achieve victory by seeking the victory goal (destruction of hive/comm chair) then they earn the right to demolish you …
  • Winners never quit! Quitters never win!

    If the other team has worked for it's victory then you should at least give them the joy of enjoying their upgrades. You'd want the same. Fighting the "impossible" just makes you better at entry…
