People definitely are still playing this game. Instead of forum, using discord more too.

Today I was waiting 2 hours in queue just to get to know that people spamming F4 can join before you. This game is so broken.
-
what about the balance, will you fix it finally?
-
Today as commander I've melted onos with two marines giving them meds+cata support. I agree that hmg gave marines better firepower, but what is worse it gave them better map blocking!!!
-
I totally agree with above. NS2 restricts gameplay taking some of the fun off of the game.
Missing from NS1:
- relocate to any point on map as marines.
- build way more alien structures in every spot of map, this way you were… -
He didn't get the training, but some players just pass training and learn during the game. NS2 always lacked some newcomers pop-up style hints and I don't know why they never been added. Cheap feature but helpful.

Maybe the first rt should just give 2x res. Coming back from 1rt is very painful and that could be the case.
-
Did read whole thread and the number of "Yes" supprise me. From my commander point of view exos are kind of toys that people like to use and it's fun to be inside, but without real tactical usefulness. As someone already said, they are like mobile t…

Someone wrote hive 2.0 will be on on b310, so is new hive working already or we need to wait more ?
-
Did try shade hive as 1st upgrade yesterday and it looks quite promising. Did won 3 of 4 games. Maybe we all are prejudiced to shade :P
-
I don't think celerity goes to jetpacks only, but to weapon 3 and lifeforms survivability. Also we're talking about 1st hive upgrade, so you could always play with crag or shade and then 2nd shift.
-
Nice to see changes, but I don't see improvements to the game style that we're all waiting for. Does it mean, that only idea to improve playability is based on hive 2.0?
sidenote: Build 308 improved performance. That will boost marines a… -

Of course it won't, but they removed HP buff and gave us higher speed / sneak speed.
... and I'm not saying that we should give skulk 85hp. Maybe there is some kind of different solution, maybe make gorge / skulk combo … -
Let's sum it up. You increase every weapon accuracy and to compensate it, you increase skulk speed only. I don't think this will work.
Problem of NS2 is that good marines (with good acc.) can easily lock down aliens. Range vs melee weapo… -
What? again you broke balance? You guys will never learn! and you did it before the weekend
-
This looks like quite sociopath move, to change such important thing in game and not tell anything about it. Do you feel better now, when you know you did destroy many games in past two weeks? Can you answer why did you do that? If you won't, I will…
-
My guess is that probably marines bullets reg better now. This would be a good opportunity to take up number of lmg bullets, that kill skulk (reduce lmg dmg?). Plus of this kind of change, will be that this will reduce stomp that good players make o…

@SantaClaws I bet you saw lerks or fades going 20 - 1, so it isn't alien/marine problem. It doesn't exist on 14 player servers too.
-
Thanks for all the posts. I don't have hard evidences, but I've played around 10 games like that lately, where there were no chance for aliens to win, even close. The problem is that pro players know how to block and support each other, so they win …

1) Address stomp issue:
Increase skulk HP, so one marine can only kill maximum one and half of skulk, with combo of rifle and pistol clip. Decrease skulk speed for balance or other nerf.
2) Add game tips during map loading.
For me, the mouse to screen input lag that was always from the first public version disappeared!!! Game runs way more smoothly. 0_0Today I did upgrade steam and after that NS2 started to crash just after start (before main menu shows up). Deleting workshop folder and reinstalling NS2 didn't helped me, but un-subscibing to mods did the work!
here is my techsupport fi…I agree with Vlad that some changes are just mind blowing. But I would like to point out too, that the game doesn't attract some kind of players that NS1 did. Those are ppl that play games like minecraft. My friend did like NS1 cause he could go gor…You can start from watching some gather games to get used to how it's going.@SamusDroid this is a tip how to speedup preaching, but I believe you need to change engine not the Lua code.After you get into then game menu, check in console what Direct3D rendering device is used. Maybe game is using CPU GPU?I would move ns2 to the second drive then, but remember that ns2 takes 9GB space.There are actually things you can do Django.
1) If you have your hard drive split to 2 partitions, move ns2 folder (through steam) to non system partition. That means D partition most of the time.
2) Use defragmentation tool …Saying you can't filter servers with reserved slots is such a bs and so "we can't make it" that makes me rofl - and I'm software engineer. If you see on your screen that there are 18 player on 18 players server you have enought information to say "t…
