Add particles to menu screen for real-time feedback on settings change

DarkOmen

I was coming back to play NS2 after a long time away, and so I went to the menu and noticed that graphics options update in real-time as the user modifies them. I also noticed that it is possible to learn exactly what effect each option will have on your game, except for particle quality. So I'd like to offer this suggestion: Add some nice, obvious particle emitters to the background at game launch so the user can fine tune their particle setting and see the immediate effect in real-time.

Good job on that menu, btw.

Yeah, it'd be nice to have. I just ended up creating a game and adjusting the settings from there.
