if this ever does happen, could some one save a demo of this?

I know you wouldn't release it untill the PR blitz (or after) but if some one could just hold onto it for us /me bows

hmm, just realized that it would have to be converted to an avi (unless you can watch a demo wwith out the proper version)

any way, I would love to see this <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You know what I'd like to see? An All-Stars NS game. Think about it, NS 1.1 will have HLTV support, we could get Flayra to comm, and the best and the brightest of the NS community (Tryouts even?), and watch the best NS players in the world via a massive HLTV proxy!!! It would be great fun for the whole community.

    Er, I'm not very good at all. I'd vote STEAMEDHAM as probably the best commander I've seen (though I was quite impressed with Future/#criogenics too).

    Actually, what Flayra tells you here shows he's too humble to survive in anything but a creative industry. Thanks to the tests, I had the opportunity of playing with and against quite a lot of the best commanders out there - and while some of them surpass Flayra in terms of micromanagement, I have yet to find the guy who's the better strategist.

    Flayra is nice and all on the voice comm, doesnt yell at you for messing up and gives you ammo and meds <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->. Jojoshua always has a alternate plan and a way to lead us to victory. And he always or i mean.. SHOULD give me a shotgun cuz im leet and stuff, and i die with it before i kill the 1st skulk!

    Future.. mmm.. he has nice tactics and plans, keeps the thang organized and give us individual orders most of the time. STEAMEDHAM is a very good tactician, and most of the time we win with him except.. mm.. Onos.... He also gives you ammo and meds.. WHO CANT LOVE A COMM WHO DOES THAT?

    Onos > Marines =/

    And well.. theres me... I commanded some 1.1 yesterday, lost bad first time, lost a little bad 2nd time, and had a pretty close game with the aliens on ns_nothing.. if anyone remembered? I am gonna try commanding some more, I had a blast.

    how do you define the difference between a "good" comm and an "awesome" comm like some of the poeple you been ****-kissing in this thread?! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    the way i see it: being sat in your chair, there is a limit to how much you can actually do as comm... a good comm is only reflected by a good team.

    i appreciate that a lot of it comes down to good positioning, "micromanagement" doing meds ammo and so on, what else? positioning you generally learn off copying other people - very few original tactics left (in 1.04 that is), and the other stuff just comes with practice and knowing the levels all around every where! :o

    p.s. what servers do all the "amazing" comms play on? US ones? i wanna see more europeans be involved <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    and an 'awsome' comm is one who really knows what he is doing and CREATES that team work <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    SuperBOB is a good comm, just because he NEVER. EVER. MISSES with medpacks. It's so infuriating as skulk to have to deal with marines that manage to ALWAYS heal JUST on time.

    I play the guy a lot, by my GOD he's annoying to fight as comm.

  • Brave_UlyssesBrave_Ulysses Join Date: 2003-04-28 Member: 15922Members
    I'd say an awesome comm also knows how to handle his team. Despite many kills as a marine, I suck at aiming. Why? Because of my ultra-not-built-for-gaming computer. And no, kiddies with rich parents, I can't afford lots of good upgrades. I get an FPS of 20 at best (though about 40 in an empty Ready Room) and if I get anywhere near a PG or active welder it drops to 4. Accordingly I also build a bit slowly. But I diligently follow orders (except when I think my comm has gone crazy, eg spent all our res spamming CCs, etc.) and know my way around NS's default maps. I don't go rambo unless my comm tells me to (such as when a skulk has parasited me, and my comm gives me leave to mislead Kharaa), I don't unnecessarily pester for items, etc.

    I think too many comms only seem good because they have people with 100+ fps and good aim. They don't know how to handle a mix of skills.

    Haha, medpacks. I always tell my marines to just go die somewhere unless they're either useful or important (preferably both). Even more so with ammo.

    I totally agree. When I have an important job to do (such as HMG a hive while under direct opposition) a good comm drops health right on top of me. If I have some regular job to do and my comm doesn't give me health then I just work until I die. It means that those 2 res go to someplace needed.
