    I think this is generally the best path for pub games and typically what I go with.



  • I've seen this too. i5-3570k and gtx 660ti.

    I wonder about overheating but everything is stock and not OC on my box, so.
  • It'd be nice if the game defaulted to the windows default mic.

    I unplug my mic sometimes and it resets the game to a different card. So basically every time I load the game I now check the mic settings (thanks for the volume indicator).

    That may be. If they are >200ms to me I won't see them.

  • Or it could be selection bias. Just saying.

    I'll try it if I ever see a server running it.

    WTF are you talking about? You already have the ability to weld marine armor. As far as I know you have always had that ability and nobody is talking about removing it.

    The debate is whether or not to make welding the…

    I don't really think it's so obvious that you can just state it. Why not? I see packs of aliens being healed by Gorges all the time. Certainly I can make the same arguments for it that you are making for forced marine welding, e…

    Yeah, bottom line: It's a marine nerf when they really don't need one. Aliens are already pretty good at hit and run. I'm not sure we need stronger fades or lurks.

    The 240 release that Aliens shed massive tears over w…

    1. So what? ASYMMETRY IS GOOD!!!
    2. So? The more teamwork the better. Just because there's other options doesn't mean we should rule out this one.
    3. So? We're just talking about fostering alien teamwork.
    4. If…

    Learn to bite?

    This would be the typical suggestion for marines that "can't aim".

    But on top of that why shouldn't marines have a capability to dodge skulks?

    I'm a little tired of asymmetry being thrown out as the trump card for everything regarding balance. Both sides need a similar capability to, say, heal up to full health+armor. Balance would suggest that this capability be more o…

    Here we go again with the assumption that I don't weld things. Let me repeat myself: If I see a burning RT I'm the first one to go spend res on a welder and weld it up. I'm the first one following Exos with a welder. I do so mu…

    Oh, so because I disagree with you I should quit?

    WONDERFUL attitude and argument.

    And to be clear it is the FORCED welding I have a problem with. You can weld your teammates all day long right now an…

    Sure, there's MACs. They help, but they cost 5 Tres each, and die easy. And if you buy MACs before upgrades your team will go apeshit. Even with MACs there's no shortage of things to weld.

    And I take offense to that …

    I'm going to write off your hyperbole.

    I call it busy work because it's something you are forced to do, not something that is fun to do. I can't tell you how many times I see this argument when someone has the temerity…

    And here I thought it was supposed to be strategy.

    Also note that busy work doesn't apply unless your'e a gorge (optionally, actually) or a marine, and thus already falls disproportionately hard on marines. This is jus…
  • I still hate this idea. More busy work for marines. Hooray, more welding.

    Yeah, I know. There's the disagree button on your upper right.
  • I think balance is job #1. Then new features. Then new maps.

    I don't think there's a lot that can be done regarding performance. That is just a consequence of the design decision to use Lua. The good news is that this matters less ov…

  • Nothing.

    But then again I recently saw a 50-3 Fade.
  • I love the speed of the Rail exo.

    I thought the same thing. I think he is exaggerating some. Just feels like hyperbole.

    Sorry but, I hate this idea so much.

    Marines are forced into so much busy work... I just don't like the idea of forcing them standing around doing MORE WELDING!
  • I know I'm repeating myself, but I don't think what this game needs is to force marines to stand around doing MORE WELDING.

    As if they don't have enough busy work as it is.

  • I did a filter for 240. I said so far so good... I didn't say it is perfect or that the numbers can't change later.

    I guess I missed the part where medpacks cost pres.



  • Hmm... sounds like you are just rephrasing a lot of the complaints in the forum for the past few days.

    Neither side with equal numbers and tech should feel "hunted" or "hunter". It should be more akin to "warriors".

    Anyway, …
  • Armories not healing armor is absolutely insane.

    Maybe if welders were free... but even then I have a baaaad feeling about this.

    Yes, instead of two gorges you might have to rush three. The horror.
