A vision for how UWE stays in business. Something like make more money from NS2. Make a new game. License software.... anything that gives us some indication you guys will be around in 2014. The reinforcement program is a pretty da… -
(Quote) this is a common sentiment and i completely agree with it.
but i really wast trying to stay away from calling the updates "bad" or "good", just pointing out that major overhauls are intimidating to new players. especially give… -
(Quote) I agree completely. I get the impression the devs have no idea what they want the game to be, they just want to make as many people (read: the loudest complainers) happy.

if you do not want to play the game, there is f4, alt+f4, or disconnect. why do you need to build in functionality that says "this game will probably become lopsided at some point, just give up. you dont want to play anyway." it sends the wrong mess…

The only thing i can think of is how ridiculously big it is. This is not the worst map in the rotation, but it could easily be one of the better ones if it lost a room or two. I dont even play on small servers, usually a 16 player one. This one aspe…

concede is an anti-feature. it helps you stop playing the game.
this is beyond idiotic. -
the alerts are very poorly implemented. it is super easy to miss them, not understand what the hell they mean, or just ignore them completely. it is nothing like english words being spoken to you and written on the screen, that has a much more reson…

Ever since the latest map change (240 or 241) this has become a marine dominant map by far. An alien locker start is the best shot aliens have. A marine locker start is probably the hardest setup for aliens to win.
Locker start for marin… -

Do not listen to this post. The correct way to do it is move your NS2 folder to whatever location you desire, then create a junction back in the steam common folder.
A regular shortcut will not work, it must be a juncti… -
I dont think either one is decisively better.
the two best maps are veil and docking. the common aspect is the marine start is tucked farther away than the other tech points. its much easier for them to just grab one tech point and use i… -
slightly different log format this time... anyway, here's my top 50 load times for veil, full log attached
$ grep "Loading " ns.log | sed "s/Loading '\(.*\)' took \(.*\)ms/\2\t \1 took \2ms/" | sort -nr | head -50in Good fps but micro-freezing sometimes Comment by foolfoolz March 2013 -
its anecdotal (although what isnt), but after this patch the micro freezes are much worse. it seems a lot more things have switched to become lazy loaded vs pre loaded, could just be my first run on the new version - including first load on descent.…

are you for real? aliens can get around the map pretty quick. the only way marines can move quickly is with phase gates, and that's 45 resources just to get the tech and your first 2 up and running. each base you want a chance at d… -
Here's another log attached, different map.

Thats because i was playing the game. If i was in the middle of a fight and it was freezing, i wasnt going to type a message. After i killed the guy and ended the fight, i would type.

I did the loading time monitor. It actually happened way more than i said in my first post, 5-6 times, this was like 30+ times. Sometimes it was less than a second, only a few times was it multiple seconds.
I attached my log. Some loadin… -
I am also having this problem, usually the game is completely hung for 2-5 seconds, and happens at least 5-6 times per session. It also usually happens in the first 20 minutes of game play and is much much more rare after that point.

I see where my servers went... I had the default max ping setting. Didn't realize every single server has over 500 ping in the browser which was filtering them out.
-
After upgrading NS2 would not launch, just hang and I had to kill it. Restarting my computer fixed that. I can't join any servers because no servers appear. It's getting "308" in the corner, but no servers to join. Every time i quit the game steam c…
