<div class="IPBDescription">???</div> "What happened to..."

Fade's acid rocket blowing back marines... and

Carapace slowing aliens down..?

What happened to them? Personally id like to see the acid rocket do some sort of blow back, cos atm theyre useful in pubs for frag hunting , and not much else.

Id also like to see cara be much more effective, up to 1.04 levels, but also slow down the aliens somewhat - leading to varying play styles.

And what happened to losing upgrades when you lost the structure they were tied to? e.g upgrades/arms lab...

Well?

ps. if theres any more plz add ur own "what happened to..."

They were removed later on..

Also, some of the changes in the final build are messed up due to a lack of changelogs. I only found out recently that the activation time on res nodes was removed.

dunnow which game you've been playing but when you lose enough towers, skills ARE affected..

losing 3d sensory still means reduction to lvl 2 cloaking and sof, for example..

he was talking about marines, not aliens

marine upgrades are inate - you dont have to keep researching them. once they are done, they are done

^^ which a)isnt how its supposed to be

Also res spill over has been removed, dont see the reason for this really.

Means if you have 100 res and are lerk or fade, you are actually wasting res, which doesnt make sense, if you are lerk with 100 res, all the other res should go towards those without as much res.

I remember reading at some point that is the way Marine upgrades are supposed to work. Not sure I agree with it since marine upgrades are already better as they don't need to be bought for each marine, as alien upgrades have to be. Means that marine upgrades are worth more in larger games, while alien upgrades stay at around the same value.

It seems to work though...

When you lose your arms lab, you still lose all of your upgrades. However, once you build a new arms lab, you get all of your previous upgrades back.

Something rather odd happened in a game teh other day. WE (Kharaa) assaulted teh Marine base and took out the Arms Lab, and then one marine noticed something and said "What happened to our weapons upgrade?". We asked him what he meant, and he said that they had researched weapon and armor upgrades to a certain level, but all of a sudden the weapon upgrades were gone.

When you kill the arms lab you lose the upgrades until an arms lab is rebuilt.
