I was wondering if there is some sort of compilation of relevant numbers for NS - just about everything and anything. I would use them for something way cool <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> But just what will remain a surprise.
I'm looking for gun fire rates, gun damage, any damage modifiers, RT gathering rates, accuracies, compiled statistics about where players like to hang out on maps, what the most common purchaces are etc etc.
Anything that is objectively measurable - I want it.

would you say a good BALLPARK for 1.1 is less then 4-6 weeks? If so then waiting is good.
for the 10000000000000000000000000000000 time.
ns 1.1 will be out when it is done and deemed balanced by the playtesters
it could be released at any time between tommorrow and when hell becomes a snowy playground
please, everyone, save you fingers the trouble and stop asking when 1.1 is due

i would say the number 3 8 and 9 are pretty relevant to the game

I would have to agree
2 pairs of three upgrades for the marines in arms lab
3 hives
3 diff chambers
3 diff upgrades for chambers (9)
3 advanced evolutions
3 ways to get on a team (alien, marine, random)

heres the sight saying numbers about damage and shots to kill marine and aliens.

and i think he also did the average time to run to a hive.
"I know a lot of times, I've said stuff like "man, eclipse is such a rush map!" But I've never really had anything to back that up. So, out of curiosity, I ran through each of the maps just now as a marine. I started touching the commander's chair, and ended touching/underneath each alien hive (except power silo, obviously). I could probably shave 5-10 seconds off a few of these routes if I tried, but I think the numbers are useful as-is.
Maps are sorted by average time to a hive. Numbers are in seconds.

Don't think anyone has gotten excited enough to test refire rate, cone of fire etc though O_o
(1 + numRT * numTeamPlayers * 0.23) * (numEnemyPlayers / numTeamPlayers) <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
Per what period of time?

it doesnt matter. A tick probably, but as long as the time is the same for both teams and you have a rate the res is balanced.
Anyway the topic should be "Can You Get Me Some Numbers?"
The hive has 6000 hitpoints, and heals at 2hp per second.
A defense chamber has approximately 720 hitpoints. I believe movement chambers are the same.
