When NS 3.0 comes out,

in NS General Discussion
<div class="IPBDescription">Which side will you play first?</div> Now on a more serious note, I'm sure all of you have read about the new changes, namely the skulk hit boxes.

Now I'm wondering, I haven't asked a PT but nevertheless I assume, that this means marines will have to readjust their aiming a tad. Just like when 2.0 came out, it took a little bit to get used to the new skulks, and I assume it will be the same this time.

So when 3.0 does come out, are you going to play straight marines until you're convinced that you can still kill those 3 skulks in one clip with much ease, or are you going to play aliens to get a feel for the novelty, such as the lerk?


Personally, I think I'll bind a key to random and start doing that <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> Discuss.

    I'm not sure what I'll play as (probably random) but I'll certainly pick NS up again when 3.0 comes out.

    I think I'll play what I'm in the mood for. If I want to bite something, then I got Kharra. If I want to shoot something, I go Frontiersman. Not a difficult choice because I'll have to play both to get used to the changes.

    Wow. Using a trollish topic completely unrelated to your post to try to get people to read it is soooooo cool.

    Well, we could PM an admin to change the topic name to something more suitable no?

    I will go for teh aliens!! I need to use teh lork bietgun!!!

    As for marines....well, my aiming as it stands,I always goes for the models, so I sure won't have much problems in 3.0. The only problem I have now is aiming NOW.

    EDITED TO FIX WELL, A MISUNDERSTANDING [/edit][/caps]

    Nevermind that skulk armor took a nice hit to the sac to compensate?

    That's true, if my memory holds, it's been reduced from 20 to 10. Not too large, but significant enough.

    I'm assuming carapace will now bring it up to 30 at lvl 3?

    OMG. Some of you amaze me. I do something out of jest and many sluffed it off, but you think I should be punished? Please. This is a message forum. I got my "verbal" if you want to call it that. Jesus Christ. Chill the feast out.


    Nevertheless thank you to those who have actually contributed to the thread instead of "flaming" me. Shouldn't there be consequences for flaming?

    Roger that!

    Makes good sense, it's like that saying that everyone has heard:

    Arguing on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics -- Even if you win, you're still retarded. It's like in school, now I haven't been in school in three years, but when you got a problem with someone, you settle it next to monkey bars and swingset after school. If someone has a problem here, we can meet In Game, settle it there, ya know.

    Well, flamebaiting is basically being a lamer in-game. You're doing it to annoy people, while you yourself find it hilarious. Difference might be that you didn't INTEND to annoy people, although then I don't see why it was necessary to flamebait...

    I'm a constellation member so I played it already, but if it gets released and I connect to a server with a combat map. I'd go aliens, since I got the expirence. Not that it's hard to be a marine, but still..
    I know the good spots in the map.

    Aliens most likely, even though I'm sure it's back to 1.04 when skulk had the same armor, and DC was the only way to survive even a few shots. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> Still, since SC gets that new ability, it should be viable option for a starting chamber -even for those who do not know how to play with anything else beside DC. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'm a CM so i can play it now, but i'll go random anyway because i always do.

    Maybe now that i have an advantage over most people (i know the maps, ahev my own upgrade orders for combat etc) i might actually do GOOD <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
