    That picture is ancient, my friend.  My spider senses tell me that there's a 99% chance it's a placeholder for some upgrade or some other indicator.

    The only things in that screenshot which are still in NS are the web sprite and the textures (and the architecture as well, but that's probably not anything you'll recognize).

    Heheh, nope.  I think that web sprite has even been replaced.  Wow, that was back when we had eggs in the game!

    So, we don't have eggs in the game anyone? I thought a builder could cough one up ,adn you could spawn from that instead of a hive...

    Oh well.

    How would you pass webs if you were a Marine? And if you're an alien and walk through a web does it "break"? If a Marine passes through a web, does it "break" after?

    What do the new webs look like??
    can someone try to recreate that same situation with the current version of NS so I can see what's different?

    Sharpsword and Dragonsblade: Please stop spamming the posts already, ive been out of the forum for a week and already ive noticed that you two have been spamming every thread with really no useful comments at all.

    An example of spam:

    -----------

    Look on top of your post, if he alredy said it, why even point it out again? And as for the web cutting, everything is STC but most likely, if you havent heard that from the dev team or a reliable PT most likely it is just SPECULATION.

    The team doesnt like speculation...
