Although you never saw an Onos, so they were slightly less epic.

The only epic games in 1.04 were intensely drawn out two-hive lockdowns, where rambo marines flew around and killed whatever poor bastard of a skulk who had escaped the dragnet and was wandering around, aimlessly. Or hell, maybe they went after that lerk in the vent who wouldn't stop spiking the turrets who only lerked because they had nothing else to spend resources on.
O Lord just thinking about it makes me quiver with joy!
I like when people talk about the "good old days" as if everything was great. Perhaps they are blinded by nostalgia? NS is way better now.

Yeah. People don't seem to notice all the positive changes that have bene made in the recent versions...
If you like previous versions of NS so much, go organize a bunch of people and host your private server with an old version of NS. The new versions are clearly better, and chances are, they'll stay.
I remember this one game where the marines holed up in Biodome hive in an 8v8. Dear god. They all had JP, they all had GL/HMG. Turrets and elect everywhere. They had IP's and armory up on the pillar, basically rebuilt their entire functional base.
And they were asses about it. They had GL tag team spamming both entrances, and HMG/JP gaurding the rest.
We tried mass gorge bile bomb. 4 onos, 2 lerks, 2 gorge. Fade rushes. Gas. Nothing worked.
I was going to win that game. I said to myself, "I'm not going to bed until these asses die under my iron fist of determination."
At 7:30am the next day, I quit. The base was hardly touched. Time: over seven hours. Of JUST me and random newbs flaying at this base.
Yea... the glory days...

How did you manage to onos rush them if they locked down biodome in 1.04? I could see that going in 2.0x, as after about 30 minutes in that build a marine team could lame enough turrets to slay an onos in one hit, but in 3.0f it would never work. Not enough turrets allowed in a base per Tfac range, and lerks are too evil a displacer of camping GLs in this version.

Free A1 is a "positive change"...?
When hell freezes over.
