(Quote) A deadline for that realization will be announced soon.

(Quote) Err... that's not QUITE what I said
But sure, that's another theory. ^^ -

DDoS on such a scale (if it's true) is usually for economical blackmail. Apparently happens to booking services, online casinos etc. pretty frequently.

With a Radeon 6850, I had about 10-20 FPS more with DX11, so I obviously used that. Absolutely no issues with it (except for the Mumble overlay not working, which isn't NS2's fault). With a GTX 750ti in the same system, DX9 seems to be the faster on…

I'm not a big fan of it. You *can* have some awesome games on it, but there are too many downsides to it.
- Nano is too crucial for Aliens, which greatly restricts the number of ways the match can "flow".
- Marines always start at the s…

(Quote) For example when you have nicely balanced teams, and have a good game going... then the Marine comm jumps out for a second, a troll comm jumps in, recycles and wastes all TRes. In that case, starting over with the same teams is a nice opt…

I keep getting a weird new form of... lag?... with 264. Overall, the game feels smoother, most likely due to Matso's fix. But once in a while, it feels like I'm ... moving through tar for about a second. I don't know how else to describe it. It's li…

An issue I noticed in sandbox mode: When you create a Drifter hallucination, and then cast the cloud again, the old hallucination is destroyed, but you only sometimes get a new one. It seems to be random, about 50:50.

(Quote) You could consider putting it under a Creative Commons license then, just to clarify what people are allowed to do with it.

Try switching to windowed mode with alt-enter before alt-tabbing, then go fullscreen again after tabbing back.
It works well for tabbing out. My only issue is that I'm often left wondering if I'm actually back to fullsc… -

What I don't get is why AO is on by default. (It still is, right?) As you wrote, it causes a big FPS decrease, and if it also adds input lag, that's even worse. How is trading in FPS and responsiveness for some eye candy a good ide… -

No no no. The proper term is "Early Access" now. -
(Quote) At least from IPs, yes. Waypoints on robo factories are (mildly) useful.

(Quote) Asymmetry ftw :-)
-
(Quote) If that's the cause, why should this be so hard to fix? Not saying it's trivial, but compared to the other stuff the devs have accomplished... come on. It should be possible to clear and resend the tech tree sooner, for example when the s…

How about making the client send a confirmation signal that it has "seen" the jump before allowing a new phase jump on the server side?
More precisely: There is an intentional delay after a phase jump before a new one is allowed to start… -
In addition to the reports of team balance votes causing lag, ghost players etc. ... yesterday, we were on a full server, teams were kind of stacked, an "even teams" vote came up, and the moment it passed, the server crashed. No notable effects on t…

I reported this ages ago, too. Each new build, I check again and - nope :P -
In my experience, you get both: players conceding at the smallest sign of trouble, and teams failing to concede when the round is obviously lost. The latter does not annoy me so much, as it's simply a matter of learning. But the "oh NO we lost our t…

Was there a ninja update within the 263 beta? When I tried the Gather UI for the first time, it looked quite different from what it looks now. If not, then the UI initialization code is moody :P
Regarding the gather feature itself... it'… -

Only if this was the main method of movement, but not if it was the "new old" Shadow Step.
I think what I find appealing are the tactical options of teleporting anywhere within LOS. This would make the Fade more interes… -

That part made me drool a little. The possibilities...
Of course, the way it is shown, it would be completely OP. But I don't see why this couldn't be made balanced - for example, a moment of standing still before the t… -

^ this. For this reason, I can't say what term would be "best".
Regarding "Gather" - If I had no idea what it meant, I would assume that this is a way to team up with friends, and then join a game together. As opposed t… -
Are there known issues with basic Gorge Tunnel operation? I rarely play Gorge myself, but a friend of mine keeps encountering weird effects like
- GT lines not showing up on the map while the tunnel is working
- having two entrances (no…

I just hope more server admins catch up and unlock AV on their servers. Except for NSL config servers, I don't see the point of being more restrictive than the standard game.
Actually, I've come to the point that I avoid servers with loc… -
(Quote) I'd like to see this too. Even when most people agree that the teams look uneven, it's still a hassle to mix them up manually. Random is far from perfect, but the best stop-gap solution we have.
On, and please add a simple AFK… -
(Quote) That's easy to fix: Just disable the phase gates for a few seconds when reordering. Makes it unusable as an emergency response, but causes no problems in other situations.

(Quote) Lol, yes now that you mention it... completely forgot about that one. Rookies spamming green goo from above, which most of the time did... nothing at all ^^ The charge-up shot was fun, though.
