  • A few minor issues now that the build is actually live and I've had a chance to play with it...

    1) Why remove the little parasite circle that lets you know you're parasited/how long it will last??? I made an offhand comment about it bein…
  • I must be missing something, I've never seen or heard of quick play sending players to empty servers to seed. (As nordic is clearly implying)

    From everything I've seen and been told by admins it takes 5 players in a server before quick…

    No not our current hive (which only has one score for both teams and is broken as hell) whatever new hiveskill system we get for "ranked" needs to be the same one used for "unranked"

    There needs to be zero dif…

    In regards to this, the reason why 10v10 servers were slowly phased out has already been said multiple times in this thread.

    10v10 is harder to keep alive when people leave after a game.

    A 12v12 server could…
  • 8v8 max sounds great in theory, but it would be so horrible in reality.

    Hours spent seeding a server > it finally fills up for a single game > 4-6 people leave and you're back to seeding

    It is super common to see 2-3+ …

    Actually as I clearly stated I did try the changes (Did you even read my post?)

    Believe it or not there are several changes I like very much.

    And yes aliens are a little stronger, but that doesn't really cha…
  • This update makes it look like they're only listening to high skill players who only play marine.

    Tier 6 and 7 marine players will commonly dominate an entire server of average players by doing what? Rushing to the alien hive and egg loc…
  • Got to play this map on another server at 10v10..

    It's an incredibly beautiful looking map that appears to be very well balanced. I'm hoping it will be played as much as the tram/summit/veil trinity lol

    Huge props to whomeve…
  • This would be EXTREMELY nice!!

    I've often wanted some sort of stat to see just how many of their res nodes I took down myself.

    Or at least have rt structure damage alongside structure damage (similar to how we have our accura…
  • It's still too new... that's the issue.

    People just don't want to give new maps a try. It's always "this map is too small" or "this map is too big" or "this map favors marine/alien"

    Or my personal favorite of all the bs excus…
  • I thought that was intended?

    It makes sense to me anyway with how they shoot through objects like extractors, hives, etc.
  • Look nordic I know you hate me but come on.

    Obviously the point of my comment was that the stats in an observatory profile are not always accurate.

    The smurf I've seen has an observatory profile that looks extremely…

  • If this is the same "smurf" I've seen around this past month (who claims to be a returning competitive player) then his stats are considerably better than that hiveskill data indicates.

    His k/d as marine is easily equal to that of…

    And they can be one of the worst things developers can use.

    Granted it's not as bad when they're set outside physical barriers or otherwise placed where it's clearly somewhere you're not supposed to go (such as outside …
  • Just going to pipe in to say that invisible walls are one of the worst things ever to encounter in a game.

    They should never EVER be considered a solution for any kind of problem.

    It would be better to put up an actual wall o…
  • Hooray!! A playtest that isn't on Saturday! ??

    Going by SPM wouldn't be any different from KDR. If anything it might even be worse.

    I've had games where I accomplish absolutely nothing on marine to contribute to the win, yet my score will be super high.

    The problem is that none of them have those options set in a way that really works well.

    You can have teams that statistically look dead even, yet in reality they are wildly unbalanced.

    For instance D…

    I'm not saying most of the reasons are nefarious I'm saying they're idiotic. Plus it doesn't help matters that 9/10 times the only reason given is "uneven teams" (even when teams are dead even)

    Except people vote for a shuffle again when it's not needed (4 point difference in team skill, 1759 - 1755) and won't shuffle again when it's needed (500+ point difference)

    It's super super annoying to have the first sh…
  • I remember randomize ready room would group literally all of the best players in the server onto one team quite often.


    Shuffle may have a number of problems (smurfs and elo chasers being only two of them) but it's infinitely better…
  • People are quick to assume the ban was legit (and it might have been) however the moderator of the steam discussions board does have a problem with jumping to conclusions and making assumptions.

    I myself was banned from the steam discuss…
  • People cry about custom maps being "bad" primarily because they don't know all the best ambush points or where to stand for the best sight lines.. They just want to play summit, tram, and veil endlessly because they know those maps, they know every…

    That would be nice, if this new elo can accurately predict whether a person is better at one team or another... Which seems unlikely since it will still use a single number.

    I'm still waiting on a "layman's"…
  • ^^ A prediction which seems to cause problems if you are carried to a win every time you end up on one side.

    Because you can get 0 kills, die 50 times, have a score of only 43 (after an hour long game) and otherwise do nothing helpful at…

    The first and fourth things I listed are a direct result of the game being free, so I beg to differ.

    As Aeglos said, the game already turns into a toxic nightmare when it's a free weekend... Game is full of free players…
  • Free to play is a cancer

    There is not a single free to play game worth playing because they all suffer from at least one if not all of the following problems

    - extremely toxic communities (like a billion times worse than it i…

  • So let me see if I understand this right...

    You want to remove self damage from grenades and replace it with a speed buff??

    As in hit yourself/teammates with a grenade to speed them up?

  • It seems like your problem is that you're playing on high population servers??

    On normal servers the "herd" you mention in maint wouldn't be able to just walk in and wipe the hive anywhere near as easily as you seem to be implying..
