Really love this map, glad you are putting so much work into getting it nice and polished, thanks a lot for your efforts!
I see this was reported already but you didn't respond so maybe you missed it - ARCs can drive straight through the… -
Wow, that's like the old forums, fantastic! So many things are worse in this new setup

(Quote) I think you're trying to make an argument for better/cheaper sentries, but I'm not sure. Gorges can place 3 hydras, so to have more than 3 you need more players to sacrifice 19 pres (gorge + 3 hydras), so that is a big investment by the a…

I like it, it would be awesome if the devs could get something like this together, I am sorry for being cynical earlier. There is still the problem of using skill ratings to set teams if the teams change a lot during the round, which is quite common…

OK, maybe I was unclear - onos have to play carefully because they die fast to groups of marines, so despite being good at killing things, they spend most of their time repositioning or running back to heal, whereas an exo normally pushes forward wh…

(Quote) True, true. I don't know what came over me. Ancillary systems here we come!

Come on Bob, this game hovers around 2000 online players! This is not Starcraft 2!
Edit: I love it dearly, but there's no point pretending it isn't a tiny game. -

Onos have a huge drawback, they cost 75 res, so they play really cautiously or they die, because they're huge and cumbersome so 3-4 marines can cut them to shreds. I have never seen an onos have an impact unless well supported by t… -
Also this would be pretty ineffective since players join and leave servers during rounds, it's not like DOTA or Starcraft where team sizes are fixed and teams don't change during a game. Would work for gathers but I don't think it's feasible for pub…

OK, I am coming round to your side on some of those things - the res display, if done neatly, sounds good. The MAC area thing would be OK I guess, would probably require a decent amount of dev time that could be spent better elsewhere, though.

Exos with welders sounds like a bad idea, one of the main features that make exos balanced is that they have to keep their support marines/MACs alive or they are screwed.
Exos that could weld each other could just completely lock down a … -

Thanks you for making this list, I agree with most of your ideas, there are a few I would question though:
(Quote) Yes I imagine this is just due to the limitations of the menu grid, hopefully they will come up with a solution.1-3, not a bad start, I'm sure these are things the devs have thought about and will probably tinker with in the future.
After that this starts to get a bit crazy, sounds like you are just suggesting things you think sound 'cool' but hav…(Quote)
The cyst model is still there, the only thing that is different is that the orange circles on the minimap are no longer there so you can't tell what parts of the map have infestation unless you actually go and look, structures and …This will probably get shouted down immediately but I'd be interested to see what people thought seeing as it doesn't seem to have been mentioned yet:
What about you find the server that has the lowest highest ping (think that makes sens…I assume the range at which you can place clogs, either absolute range or some interplay between range and angle, got changed - hopefully by accident and will be reverted since this is very annoying.Bump, anyone else got this? Any PT care to comment on whether this has been reported?I never had that problem with the server browser. I also seem to not have the mic issue any more either..... I just loaded up NS2 and went straight into a server and my mic was working without having to open the menu, don't know how it has fixed its…(Quote)
You only need to worry about consistency checking if the mod installs files to clients. A server side mod does not require any special treatment by consistency check because it is not comparing anything between the server and clien…Did you carefully follow the instructions here?I see both devices and 4 sliders(Quote)
Why?
Are these features still available since the forum got updated a month or so back? None of the links/tips in the OP seem to be correct any more.I agree being able to see the commander's PoV would be great, I think you were able to do this in previous versions. You can see some stats if you press Q, but there is a bug in the current version so you can't see everything from the start of the r…Could be, I think after you've played for a while you get pretty used to how it works now. I never have any trouble knowing when I get attacked, even when aliens sneak up behind I notice as soon as I take damage, think it's just a matter of getting …Hopefully this is still monitored since it's a webbed topic, many if not all of these ideas have probably been suggested before, sorry I am not willing to read through 15 pages of previous posts. There have been some great improvements to the interf…I think by small, they meant the development team, not the size of the map or number of players.
As for global voice chat - that would almost certainly be used more for annoying the other team than any other reason. Think about it, you'r…I think the problem is that some players don't want any distracting animations to get in the way when they're trying to kill an alien. Onos is already quite obvious, it makes your gun flail around.No problemo
