NS TUTORIAL

<div class="IPBDescription">some of my ideas</div>stuff that you think should be in NS2

discuss

here are some of my suggestions -
1. Tutorial - such as the HL1 hazardous course, teaching the player simple things that will make them a better player, such as not humping THE ###### ARMORY mad-fix.gif

2. Friendly fire always on

3. Turret buff - as weapon upgrades increase, the turret dmg increases as well

4. Spawn choice - choosing which hive to spawn at (if there is more than 1) in case 1 is under fire (preventing the spawn camping)

5. Egg spawn - when spawning in, the hive lays down eggs and they evolve to the skulk, giving more defense against spawn camping

6. Gorge spawn point - similar to BF2, where the gorge would lay an egg so the skulk can spawn there protecting the gorge

9. Bile damage - maybe have the gorge Bile bomb damage marines, seems realistic since the bile can damage structures - why not armor?

10. Bhop - take it away (yeah sounds crazy)

11. Marine speed - decrease it, because marines should not be able to evade the skulk, it should be the skulk evading the marine

12. Phase Gate - <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?s=106100990983522608&showtopic=99658" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index....showtopic=99658</a>

Take bh away? why man? That's just a stupid idea. NS2 with walking skulks/fades whatever the lifeforms will be, would be like cs without guns. It's like taking away something that really belongs to NS.

QFT. <3
I second this statement.
I was like WTH when I read it.

It wouldn't change anything. The spawncamping marines merely would wait until the skulk evolved completly and then start shooting at him. And dont forget: The spawnplaces are "random" at the moment, if the hive drops an egg it most likely would be the same place all the time, what only makes spawncamping even easier.

- gorges don't lay eggs. the hive "produces" them. then afterwards they evolve to higher lifeforms.

- spawn choice - nice idea, has been suggested many times before but a map usually only has one good hive spot which will always be choosen since you can choose it. so let it stay random

- egg spawn - a bit different than you suggested it. eggs should be dropped when the scoreboard says "reinforcing"

- bunnyhop - no way, that's what makes the skulks powerful

- bile bombs once made damadge to marines too but it was removed I think. Another idea I've had about that was that bilebombs might slow down marines' moving speed or create a slimy surface so marines are sliding a bit while walking

Oh and what I'd like to see is:

- chooseable marine models, maybe customizeable
- female models for female players
