ahhh haha, what a headache i love to comm but bloody well hate coming noobs!
i also dont like rambos, but if there is 2 or 3 rambo's and they work together well things get done, bugs get killed.

whoever said that i start off good and loose about half way in is a idiot, i loose that way becuaes my moron of marines cant understand the fact that they need to get to the growing hive and shoot it down...  and most times they never do then we get out tech'ed fast by fades, loose our nodes, and game over.
not really my fault, i give them waypoints and have the right upgrades to get the job done also intel coming over the voicecomm, but if they cant aim or work together we could have HA and W3A3 and still loose but hey its just a game and if they suck that bad go play something else i cant stand stupid marines.

General / Respect The Comm!

idea's about what hive we should take ect is a welcome'd piece of advice to me, but most times its stupid idea's and i dont listen to them but the thing that really boil's my egg is people complain about dieing because of the comm... how does this work, he's not shooting your gun for you... the comm only gives you the guns its up to the mariens to uses them and to activly hunt the aliens down. not cry the the comm about gettin jumped by a pack of skulks while they are ramboing around teh map with little to no direction.

also, comm's that jump in the cc and start a map should always finish it with their marines, I NEVER LEAVE THE CC MID GAME, NEVER!  if we win or loose i'm there to donce with or die with my marines.

General / Don't Comm Like This

« on: March 04, 2004, 01:02:04 PM »

why thank you owly, that was the first compliment i got about that win.
that was really won due to the marines, you guys did a execilent job at gettin that base up, we came close to gettin wiped out a few times but we struggled through.

if you wanna talk good strats and bad strats it doesnt take a genious to comm but it does take a lil know how, specificaly on TF placement and turret placement, i've also found in 3.0 due to build ranges its even more so if you tryin to siege you dont want turrets blocking your siege cannons from being placed.

my general strat for most maps is,

1 ip 1 TF in base ( tf is must have for RT elec )
and depending on alien team and how much i think they will be rushing MS i either drop mines ( good for 1 or 2 skulks ) or turrets no more then 3 ( good for repeted rushes on MS  or elec the TF but i find this doesnt work very good anymore, seeing that the skulks just hide and wait for rines to spawn before atttacking.

after that first drop i generaly have 50 to 60 res to work with, that allows me to set up elec RT's following the marines

after we have taken 4 to 5 RT i begin upgrades ( altering tech tree acording to aliens chambers being used )

another good strat i've found is correct placement of a stronghold, and doesnt always have to be at a hive ( cargo room outside fusion hive rings a bell )
a good stronghold not only provides cover to that hive but allows marines to move out to RT's from a different direction other then MS.

also having the correct upgrades for you mariens when the Fades and Onos start coming is important, HMG's for Onos weapons 2 is ok but weapon 3 should be upgrades soon after, Shotguns for Fades wepaon 2 is perfect although i see to meny marines die to fades ( sekret is HIT THE FADE SQUARE IN THE CHEST WHEN HE LANDS TO CLAW YOU ) firing at him when he's blinking does close to nothing, this close in firepower is why the shotgun is made for.

apart from that the rest is up to the marines to hold RT and kill aliens, I as a comm will always try to give my marines the upper hand, its my job, and that includes intelligence, i try to give them early warning of onos location and what RT's need defending ITS UP TO THE MARINE TO GET THERE AND DEAL WITH THE ALIEN THREAT! not me, i get blamed for this to meny times and makes me turn red with rage,  the only reason for me to be blamed is for having the wrong upgrades or no upgrades or even bad TF placement or blindspots in Turrets





That is all.

NS while when i've seen 10 straight aliens wins and 0 marine victories i dont have anything positive to say about it 

well seth, it was pretty reg-stacked against you that night, that wasn't a game balance issue

like i said in game " i h8 u onos "

but it wasnt that it was stacked, aliens had 3 hives and 4 onos before we even had HA, even though we held onto 5 RT  for the first 15mins.
and then to make it even worse, when we finaly killed a onos, it was 1.5mins later he came back because he always had 100res stockpiled.

should be a time limit on onos, or slow the alien res down just a hair for skulks and ect, but keep the same for gorges ( but i could see the ol problem coming back where people just gorge to whore res then go onos )

in short, alien res system needs to be reworked for 3.0

beta3 i dont have much of anything nice to say about it at all, i'm very dissapointed.

CO is the most horrible thing i've ever played. being spawn camped endlessly is just stupid, while they say they are gettin exp. why dont they just kill the CC is beyond me.
all i can think is thank jeebus FSD has FF cause i'll shoot the CC down myself anyday.

NS while when i've seen 10 straight aliens wins and 0 marine victories i dont have anything positive to say about it  :angry:
balance still seems to be an issue flayra has no grasp of, he changes one thing and it totaly unbalences the other, kinda the ying and yang but in b3 the yang is right off the ying scale (yang being aliens)




in short, i'll look to 2.01 for my NS cravings.  
3.0 makes me sick.

alright alright, i'll fire up my 2.01  

i h8 those long endgames, and when your marines are to busy cleaning their mouse to shoot at aliens it makes me very mad.

but then again, 2.01 is in some sense better then 3.0b2 CO all day. /edit  ?RIGHT?  :huh:  /edit

General / Half Life 2 Ns Mod?¿?

« on: January 28, 2004, 02:44:55 PM »

yes monkey, i'm glad to hear someone still thinks the way i do... some creative things go a long way as to appealing the gamers who are there to play the game as it was ment to be played.

and lacking on such aspects as mountains in outter space just leaves me to believe there is a lack of serious input.

in the sense of not turning this into a flame on ns3.0 i will now shutup and hold my comment to myself.   v_v

General / Half Life 2 Ns Mod?¿?

« on: January 28, 2004, 02:15:13 PM »

what would be cool is being able to spacewalk on the outside of the map... errr ship.


but then again half of the new maps are such garbage anyways, i was looking out the window on one of them, i was thinking " mountains in outta space? "

then its like one room is called docking bay, i look out the window theres a frigging platform that looks like its outta lando's sky city but its sitting ontop of boulders?

all that just doesnt add up to me... perhaps im just crazy and having video problems again  :huh:

give me a sniper rifle for taking skulks off roof's and i'll be happy

n perhaps xray scope, with phase bullet so i can phase the bullet past 5 walls and hit a skulk laying around... but tiss just a dream.

but i think HL2NS should be a whole city infested with aliens, marines land in choppers and whatnot then spread out and clean the city up.  with hives in movie theaters and stuff like that, a hotel hive, red light district hive.... ect.  ^^

monkey fix your "maxerrordistance" problem before you try dealing with steam issues, there are patches out there you just need to look for them, some require a lil know how but they are very easy to install... i've done all of mine and havent had a crash since.  ATi  <3
