Anyone notice performance issues with this patch? We played on 4 different servers last night and each one, a lot of intermittent red plugs that affected the entire server. Is the Heal Over Time being calculated every server tick or frame on the cli…

Exos should drop on the ground like guns do when killed. They become "broken" on the ground, and marines can attempt to recover them, if it's not destroyed by the aliens. Makes them a little less anti climactic when a marine instantly loses their 45…

Maybe what's needed is just a more user friendly way of conceding. How unintuitive is the current way to vote concede? You have to TEACH new players how to do it, which is ridiculous!
If it's easier to find and select a "surrender option… -

As a commander, I can say not having power has done nothing to affect anything I can do in the chair. Or at least it never has in the past, and if it does now, something is broken. -

I think a lot of us understand the the PDT was given strict guidelines for what to do. That doesn't change the fact that those guidelines were not in the best interest of the modders or a general part of the existing community. Th… -
UWE abandoned the game. Modders and the community made the game into something better in their absence. There is a reason NS2+ reaches 100% of players. It is what the community wants in the direction or the game.
If UWE doesn't want thei… -

It doesn't matter who's job it is, it needs to actually happen.
Any by "happen" I mean in an actually meaningful and constructive way. One that produces net positive results for all parties involved. -

I should have narrowed down what I quoted, but I was responding to his item that says it's time for the modders to stop being stubborn. -

Then you are a bit dense. I will have something that might help explain it better soon (tm) -

No one said NSL mod needs to be in vanilla. -

Why should the makers of those mods satisfy your needs and desires for those features? Why couldn't it be one of UWE's priorities, instead of a vast plethora of undemanded features and tweaks? -

By your own argument, your numbers are flawed as well, because it ignores the weeks of progress you guys have made to try and increase players numbers.
Using player numbers as a metric to measure the impact of this even… -

I've thought more about it, and I think you can create an alien structure "weight". Each object has a weight. Once weight > threshhold in a room, it gets dark and becomes "alien". -
Just make it something toggleable via config or static boolean, so the ENSL mod can just "new_atmospheric_lighting=false" it.
Or fix the flawed implementation both Crazy and I have pointed out. Here are some ideas:
1. Have the str… -

This isn't true! Did you read my post that I tagged you and mcglaspie on? ONE cyst in a room makes the power for the entire ROOM go "dim". Anything more than one structure in a room has no affect other than more lighting from alien… -

What happens if there is a shade in the room, and all alien structures are "hidden". I imagine if the aliens are trying to hide the presence of structures in the room, they wouldn't want atmospheric lighting to give away that something's hidden in t…

NS2 has too many cooks.

I am. I am mostly trying to imply if the developers of this game did what I said above, they made a really dumb mistake. UX 101. -
Why does me exiting the game depend on an analytics server to respond? That doesn't seem like an appropriate software model. I hope it's at the very least asynchronous, but I assume since it's causing a sort of "freeze", it's not.

When I am in the command chair, why can I still hear gorges dropping clogs when I have no line of sight? This bug is ANCIENT
Why can I see a purple cloud when an onos is hitting a structure when I ALSO have no line of sight?
Why as a com… -

While I commend you on your proactive approach to filling the gap UWE is leaving, and I love ns2news for it's well crafted and well thought out content, this cannot be an acceptable excuse for UWE to completely ignore large, coordi… -

Basically this.
More than 8 man servers are great for less that 2000 skill groups.
As the skill goes up, the number of players per team should decrease and approach 6.

I do. Me and the rest of the ns2 community... ? This is kind of my point. It's VERY hard to implement features that will be broken due to the incredibly moddable nature of NS2. If it doesn't work with a mod that is incredibly popul… -

It's probably putting me on an empty server because all other "good" servers are full. This happens a lot in NA. I don't know if that's broken. The problem is I'd rather spam refresh or manually join a 200+ ping server than wait fo… -
The "Play now" button is going to have problems. Using it today, I have found it spits me on an empty server 70% of the time (I tried 10 times throughout the day). It doesn't seem like enough people use this to make the "spit me on an empty server" …

How can you say this is not the fault of CDT or UWE? One of those two decided to push a patch. One of those two decided that the patch was ready. One of those two failed to properly QA the patch to a level that guaranteed no problems.

You made this game playable. You kept it alive when UWE turned their backs on us. I paid you more on your donations than I did for this game.

Link to a change log for said balance patch? Checked their forums/webpage and there's nothing.
