One thing that helps the gameplay on pubs become very good indeed is becoming a regular on a clan server. If there are usually some clan players or admins on who are prepared to give advice and generally coordinate things a community will quickly build up. Over a couple of months youll get regulars and the teamwork goes exponential. A bad com still sucks though, ive been playing for a long time and if im in the chair its going to be a good fight. We could definitely use a tutorial for the less experienced players though. Becuase ns is more balanced now having a good com is alot more crucial, it is tempting to flame the noobs but we really shouldn't. JUst one thing....dont ever go com without voice, or alot of typing communication, its just annoying and it means that we can't give advice and you won't ask.

Kinda Off topic but I think we need more configuration of the choices that is made. Now it's just HA for most pups, and occasionally lvl 3 armor before lvl 1 weapons and if the pub is good, JPs sometimes. Super moving electrifed torretns and plasma fusion grenade would help immense <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
Realizing that it was a very old post after I had read all of SUB original post, something came to my mind... Where's SUB? I don't think I have seen him in a while. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
I really don't know what I feel about 2.1 anymore, I find it a lot of fun, but that is mostly due to the fact that I hardly ever play it anymore. PTing 3.0 has shown me that this game has the "right stuff". Many patches and changes later I still think that this game is only a few steps away from becoming PERFECT. If you bothered to read the latest build you would have noticed the lack of alot of Bug fixes. Blancing has started up and is moving along at a nice pace. Over the next Build or two, I feel that things will be fixed up and thanks to the VERY hard work on behalf of the UWE team, NS 3.0 will be ready for release.
This past build has shown that the blancing is getting all the small things worked out, the levels are being set and the final Ideas added (maps...). Will 3.0 be prefect, to everyone no! Human nature will always take off the 5 percent, but in general most of the problem that SUB talked about in his post have been fixed. The game has become the most fun it has ever been. NS:C will attract a heap load of players and it fears me to think of how our current state towards noobs will damage 3.0's release.
We have to stop trying to play this game as if it was do or die, its a game ment to be fun, 3.0 promises to be alot of fun, but not if we don't relax our current ways of treating newbies.
