I'm pretty sure you can't own gameplay. You just can't copy things like textures or models or sounds and stuff like that.
There's a million cstrike and cod and battlefield and quake clones.
So yea, you can just reskin combat … -
(Quote) Rookie only servers are a type of skill segregation and they are alive and well. People even express how annoyed they are when they can no longer join the rookie only servers.

Dang.. Don't I look like a fool now.. Anyway, you can still find some inspiration from the Reflex model I guess

Can best be described as a strafe jump. Moving backwards slows you down, but you can make a long backwards jump by quickly turning, then do a strafejump back, then turn back while airborn. Doesn't need to be backwards of course, you can strafe jump …

Actually, it is a problem for marines as well that there isn't a proper practise mode. Because new players don't have a good way to learn how to deal with higher lifeforms either. It often manifests in new players complaining that fades in particula…

Omg yes @dePARA. People going Onos in pregame is SO infuriating. Removing that would be a welcome start.
Ideally I'd also like to see jetpacks removed in pregam… -
That's neither obvious nor a fix @RevanCorana wow. Terrible idea.
-
I think the solution is quite simple actually..
Make a new gamemode that allows players to easily replace lifeforms.
Combatmod was such a gamemode, but we don't necessarily have to remake a true copy of that. Any gamemode tha… -
(Quote) You're nuts man. Railguns are insane lifeform killers, including fades. If you hear a fade, you simply time and charge both railguns simultaneously and you do up to 340 damage to him, if he isn't already instagibbed from that, a quick suc…

(Quote) So what are we talking here, 5-10 years from now? I'm not sure if I'll be playing by then. FeelsBadMan

Then I don't want it!!

So what if you switch target in-between? You hit one marine twice, kill him, then stab a second marine and instagib him?
What happens on the 4th consecutive hit, is that a stab as well? Can you turn in to a stabbing machine instagibbing … -
It's not a bad idea. It's tweakable too.

It kind of is an individual progression system though, and a pretty good one. The score reflects your likelihood of winning - I can't come up with a better goal for the game. If everyone tries to be better at winning - then everyone has better games…
-
What amount of RT's are you expecting. Because on certain maps, holding 3 RT's is very good. If you're expecting to hold more than that, perhaps that's your issue?
It generally helps to only expand one way against equal teams. If you sta… -

You misunderstand how heal wave works. It has a GLOBAL cooldown. Meaning you can only activate one crag's heal wave at a time. So it is completely pointless to stack crags like you suggest.
The only reason why it would … -
I've had this bug forever, to the point that I jump in with pistol and jump out by switching to lmg right away.
-
Yea that is nonsense @Wob. You can have a shitty player be an "impactful fade" provided he plays on a community server with weak enough players. So not only will his score/tim…

(Quote) Exactly, that's basically what I talked about in this thread. As I wrote back then, I believe that each community ought to use their …

(Quote) You do yourself no favour in using such a ridiculous example. Sure you have players who are worth different skill values based on faction. But a 2k marine worth only 500 as alien? You may be able to find an example or two, I'll give you t…

I'll go a step further. ANY change you make, will only benefit veterans.
It doesn't matter what you change, veterans are the first to find out how to abuse it, and veterans are the first to find out how to counter it. Don't balance in fa… -
(Quote) Actually, I do do that sometimes. Mostly when people start to audibly complain about imbalance, I'll just leave and find another server or do something different. If I recognise a nick as a chronic complainer, I leave right away.I disagree with basically everything @Kouji_San has written in this entire thread.
(Quote) Well if you look at the Season 10 div 1 finals, aliens actually turtled…We could also just reintroduce feign death, that was an amazing trait right fellas?!One thing I really liked about the sewlek's balance mod in the early days was, biomass started off being tied to the number of alien structures. It sort of turned out to be about spamming crags and whips everywhere, which admittedly sucked. But I al…(Quote) Yes you could make upgrades depend on number of hives again and increase prices.
But even then, the health nerf on your aliens still needs to be accounted for somehow. And you also need to adjust the research durations.
<…@RevanCorana @.trixX. Right, basically that wouldn't really change the decision making of marines, it would just add more busywork for commanders.(Quote) A sufficiently good enough marine, hardly cares how your skulk moves though.
However, if you, as an alien, are upset about the TTK - learn to play lerk, fade or onos. Even gorges can be quite beefy if played correctly.You should consider implementing the cpma / reflex mechanic for double jumps. They allow cool trick jumps like stair jumps.
Start at 0:41(Quote) This kind of thinking is extremely misleading. NS2 suffers from big snowball effects. Your K/D is almost always reflected based on being on the winning or losing team. Often, even if you're no asset at all to your team, you can have a K/D…
