Not much just saying i love the balance in 2.0 and i think its perfect. Dont mind all the whiners on servers saying "X is too powerful" or "X is too weak" the game is balanced great and has gave me some great games in the past few days.
Anyone else agree? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

How DARE you question the official-ness of this thread!
Out! OUT I SAY! <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->
play this server it's this..play that server it's that
overall I'm proud of the dev's and testers...especially comsidering the fact I've not paid one penny nor invested a minute of my time to the development of this mod
/edit my typing skills are totally out of balance /edit
I call the marine strategy. No, I'm serious. They conserved resources, had some skill with their weapons, and just moved in as a team. It's not like some one-man rambo killing the entire alien team.
I think the game is very balanced overall. The only "killer" would be when rines start to turret spam, in which case becomes a pain. Then again, we can always have ourselves a 'gorge rush', hehe.
These are the words of wisdom. It <i>seems</i> to me that it's very well balanced now, but it's way too early to form definite opinions.
scanner sweeps are nice but a comm should put an obs at every single outpost. its silly having a outpost at a hive and then some onos apears infront of u and eats u when u could have seen it comin.

that is stupid, its like saying using more teamplay/strat make the game unbalanced. plus the game was pretty much tested in clan matches. well a high teamplay/strat situation.
Well, that's just my hissy-fit. But I tend to avoid it most of the time. I guess I agree with you fellas' for the most part. Games are a lot more interesting, since 1.04. I mean I can't really complain, because I can't do anything about the stuff I complain about. Correct? Correct. So it doesn't matter. All in all, in my opinion, the game is great. It's the only game I enjoy playing public on, besides Day of Defeat. I used to be a hardcore junky on that modification. But, I have lowered my playing time for some good old fashioned Natural-Selection. The community of this game, is overall, amazing. I hope in the future it gets better. With the release of 2.0, the community has increased, and it is also becoming more wise, and things are shaping up, and looking quite positive. Even promising for that matter.
I would also like to give a shoutout, and thanks, praise to the creators, testers, and anyone else that did anything. You made the game, to the best, in your minds, and my mind. I just get a little peeved when my teams down! (But hey, who doesn't right?) Keep up the great work, and hopefully we can see some more come out from the whole community, and even make it a bigger establishment.
Interesting point of view. Might I introduce you to our 160 veterans...? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

aahahahahahh nice one :-p
if you think its unbalanced now, take everyone's advice and wait. The veterans, playtesters + devs have been at the balance for 2 months. If you think its unbalanced because things like the lerk dont have bite, or onos have stomp...
imo everything has a counter so far. Also - compare the balance of 1.04 (jp hmg > all) to balance of 2.0 where most strats work, and not 1 rambo can fraeking win the round.
Quality over quantity <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Someone already said that.
I think its true it might be too early to fully say that 2.0 is perfectly balanced but at this time, it is. And thats all i really care about.
So you're saying;
it's too early to say it's balanced,
<i>but</i>
at this time, it's balanced.
I no get what say you?
The two teams seem to be perfectly balanced, any complaints I've seen in game so far about lacking balance stem from people who simply have a far lower level of upgrades/tech than their enemies.
I love the new balance, any issues I have with NS 2.0 are quite unrelated to the balance between teams.
Whether an omnipotent viewer would think so, we'll see, we'll see.
hehe, sounds like this guy is sayin' talk to the hand.. hehehe
anywayz, i like how much they've put in to this friggin'game, considering how long it has been and "we" are able to actually friggin' play this game
/me brain explodes
/me picks up the peices and walks back to the 2.0 arena <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
awesome i cant wait until i get good
thats not unbalanced, that just means your team was too crap
The sad thing is yesterday the game was going so slow that I had to direct the aliens on how to come kill our base, lol. My "fellow" rines didnt use mic's, everyone refused to comm, no one responded when you tried to talk to them, no one would follow anyone, it was utterly hopeless. The aliens kinda had it together, so I kept on telling them to hold off, save for onos, get a lerk to gas our base, then charge at once- which eventualy they did.
worth the wait?... sure..i guess... stoped playing 1.04 because it was same old same old all the time.
2.0 every game is differnt its great, well more tactic involved anyways.
marines no longer own all, in fact, they get owned alot
but BEFORE PEOPLE WHINE look at the past?
with 1.04 first being out marines lost ALL THE TIME cuz commanding is wierd etc, then they always owned. 2.0, marines getting owned all the time, now its balanced <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
quite frankly ive had alot of great marine games and alien games thus far,.. although, remus got stuck in a hive when evolving to onos, but that was plain funny <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
other than that, i like it alot, just takes getting used to , relearning skills etc, but i love it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
GG NS devs
if any one of you want to impregnate my girlfriend that would be great, id love to have you father my kids thx
Ego
[FACT] Misa back~!
But here is my 2 bits for balance. sence ns 2.0 went public I have seen the marine team win a total of one time.
Yes. Marines are lagging behind a bit, the aliens have it pretty straight-forward, which is fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Give marine players a while to get used to it. It will be a blast then !
