General / Big Unannounced System

My only hope is that with him dissolving the Vet system, he'll listen to the playtesters more.
Fat chance.

General / A Question To Our 'special' Customers...
« on: April 25, 2004, 06:46:39 AM »
Me, I =do= listen to the commander like a zombie. I've lost track of how many times I've died trying to get to a waypoint that the commander has forgotten about... 
As for commrage, how about commrage-by-proxy? One game (on Lost) we had only 3 marines on the ground, and one spent the WHOLE game sitting in base whining for a welder. Even picked up one of our shotties, and STILL stood around in base asking for a welder, after Saltz basically told him to go to hell. So, I reclaimed the shotgun... by SHOOTING HIM IN TEH FAEC.

Off Topic / Explain Your Name
« on: April 24, 2004, 07:27:24 PM »
Back when TF first came out for QW (playing it under Q1 kinda blew) some friends and I started a clan, and decided to make it Warhammer-40k-themed... so I changed my name to Plaguebearer, the name of the daemon servants of Nurgle, Plague Lord of Chaos. And, I always played medic, loved running up, tagging someone with bioweapon, and escaping while they died...

I've already done that on most of the uneven walls and ceilings, Mr.Bill, using the CLIP texture.

ThoraX: I bought better tires right away, too... since it was all I could afford. Even with Rally tires, traction is some kind of on-again off-again Schroedinger's Cat like quantum effect in HL Rally world... blink and it disappears.

I think most of the lag people experienced was from not having the minimap... which IS in the zip file :p
The thing about the light sprites - I use flare3.spr; it just so happens that the res nozzles do too. It's not an intentional usage of node sprites - it's just the only one that ns doesn't screw around with that I think fits.

As a mapper, though, I'd not be opposed to the application this would be used for - adding a server logo and short rules summation to the readyroom.

I'm aware of that... so shouldn't we also add the cost of going gorge to the price for chambers? Shouldn't do it on one side of the equation and not the other.

General / Possible Cs Server
« on: April 07, 2004, 02:47:52 PM »
I often hear about how much CS blows goats, fro mother game-playing friends. When they say stuff like that, I often speculate out loud how good a CS server populated by LM regs would be...
...since 99% of the suckiness in CS is the PLAYERS.

Of course, it's not that simple. You can't just trade res between players, so you can't say 2 RTs = 5 chambers like I was proposing above without some caveats.
2 RTs doesn't equal 5 chambers - an RT costs 15 res.

Saltz, in that game, you were saying we could get by off three nodes. We only had four because I cashed in my rfk for building another node.
I never insinuated that gorge=teamplay. But I do insist that without res, aliens lose. It's simple enough to go gorge, drop a res, go back skulk, and go about your business. That res then parlays into more available defenses, upgrades, lifeforms...

That'd be cool. I'll let you know if I think of anything. The worldmodels thread on ns.org sort of fell apart. I only ever saw two or three real downloads from it, the rest were just 'look at this cool awesome thing I made wouldn't it look great in game?' and there's no download and the model is like 8,000 epolies anyway.Tell me about it :/

Gotta disagree on the turret/tfac issue though. There's a time and place for them, I agree, but saying never have them early game? :p You forgetting the ever-popular "start of game hive lockdown"?
