General / wtf is with combat
« on: January 05, 2005, 12:30:59 PM »
hi i'd like to bring up an obvious point on combat servers -- Aliens are winning most of the games. It's UNBALANCED!! ONce the sky starts raining with xenocide and the fades/onos, with focus, charge the rines, its GG. I've seen even the most skilled players on co maps get pwned by nubicide, random fade/onos beatdown, and noobweb. IT's just sooooo...retarded.
You see, once a signle skulk on the alien team gets xeno, you can kiss your armor good bye and with lerks constantly gassing you, you're guaranteed to get killed by a single focus bite or another xeno shower. Fades and onos, with their huge hp, are impossible to kill because there's going to be more than one of them by the time you get your hmg. it takes at least half a clip, if not more from a lvl 1 hmg to kill a cara fade and the entire clip to kill a cara onos. Once your weapon is empty your screwed! Also, team attacking is pointless because of xenocide! OMGwtfhax!! And I don't know any marine who is going to waste one point on getting a welder when he could spend it on getting weapons upgrades, which are more critical for eliminating the invading aliens.
O and the other thing is the retarded plugins that let you get above lvl 10. WTf?!! why don't those servers remove those!?! That gives the aliens a chance to get every possible upgrade there is, rendering them virtually impossible to kill.

1) get a really good rambo on your team (preferably from exigent or terror)
2) let them spawn camp the aliens to death while the rest of the team gets nodes
3) you win!!

General / Detailed Map Strategies - Tanith (ns_tanith)

This guide is actually pretty good. But a lot of this comes from experience, knowledge of the map, and common sense. Also, there's a matter of exploits...

General / Gorge's Guide to World Domination
« on: January 03, 2005, 12:02:33 PM »
btw you forgot to add bunny hopping as a gorge and what to do on ns maps.
Usually, your main job on ns maps is to either setup rts or mds chambers as a priority. Then drop ocs in the hive or at chokepoints when your team has secured enough res.
On co maps you should get all upgrades except focus and silence. Web the entrances to the hive first, but don't use up all your web at once, as there is a limit. A diagnol line or "X" across a doorway should suffice (Don't ever "pre-web" the hive as a person with a GL can just blast everything away) The rest you should use when engaging jpers, when they start buzzing around the hive and no one can get them.
Many argue that bunnyhopping is a trivial skill. But for gorges, its a lifesaver from some marine that is chasing you.
