Marine V's Marine

mavric · January 2004

<div class="IPBDescription">Marine V's Marine is it possable</div> I was asked by one of my clan members weather Marine V's Marine is possible on current version of Ns that is out at mo dose any one have any idea

Supernorn · January 2004

Its not currently possible, but is being planned for a future version of NS.

mavric · January 2004

Thanks

one more thing is the NS torunent still going ahead i not heard anything from my email reqest in quite a few weeks

raz0r · January 2004

i am still unable to make sense of that first post, could anyone clarify it for me(not intended as a flame)

Kalias · January 2004

He wanted to know if you could play a Marine vs Marine game on 2.0.

MrMojo · January 2004

It isn't in 3.0, no, but it's probably being planned for 4.0 ( Probably).

Don't think it's such a stupid idea, if anyone but Flay has said that the next game play would be like DM, with no commanders, gorges, or resource nozzles, you would have laughed too.

MrPink · January 2004

The only thing anyone knows about post 3.0 is that the dev team will likely take a month or so break from doing any NS related work, then no one knows.

Haze · January 2004

Marine vs Marine would be quite weird.

Squinage · January 2004

it would be quiet interesting and it would all be down to how well the commanders manage there team.

i really like that idea. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

There'd probably a few conflicts, though. For instance: How do you siege a turret farm if that turret farm already has siege?

Fooshie · January 2004

A gl could take out a turret farm I bet.

th0r0n · January 2004

I think if possible that it could of been done it should of replaced combat in 3.0.

Nil_IQ · January 2004

I must say knifing marine rts would feel wierd. It would probably come down to who has the most sieges, with a no-man's-land in the middle where no-one can set up a siege because it will instantly get blow up by the other side's sieges. This would be the "front line", and it would be interesting to see 2 teams with constant reinforcement via pg duke it out.

Transmission · January 2004

Turn on friendly fire. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

Or just balance the game

rennex · January 2004

Happens all the time after winning the marine round in a scrim or match. The limited time before everyone is sent into the readyroom gives an extra challenge.

aao_Alpha · January 2004

well, I don't think we will have to worry about balance issues too much, or maybe balance will be more of a problem, either way I think it would be awesome. Maybe MvM but I think more technologies will have to be implemented to allow for more strategies and paths of gameplay. Anyways; my R0.02

Grillkohle · January 2004

An alien vs alien game would be kind of fun too:
2 Oni trying to stomp and devour each other, 2 fades blinking around each other trying to get a good hit, 2 lerks playing air battle. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

It's called trench warfare, with phasegates replacing railway reinforcements. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

I have no opinions on the matter, just felt like making that comment. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

saberx · January 2004

There would obviously have to be some changes made, gameplay-wise. Adding, changing, removing (Electrified upgrade <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'> ).

Cronos · January 2004

Just a little something...

Couldnt MvM be placed into combat mode? a Nice symmetrical Co_ map would do, heck, if there wasnt enough time then simply replace the hive with a team_command entity just to test a proof of concept at the very least...

** Thinks of what it would be like **

Yeah! We could have a map, and it could be in these desert buildings, and we could call it co_dust! Yeah! Yeah! Wheeeee!

Waaaaiiiit...... <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

I hate CS with a passion. Mention it again and I might do something violent.

Quite simply, why not? The goal is to take out the CC for both rine teams, might need a bit of tweaking but I see no overall problem...

Shockeh · January 2004

Tee hee. I was pointing out the similarities it would have. It would be worryingly CS like, after all.

(Chuckle, mentioned it again.)

Cronos · January 2004

Well, I did nothing violent thankfully

**sound of wall collapsing in background**

Ehehe, ehm.

Unlike that.... thing.... There would be dynamic play. I wont bother you with all the arguments for MvM as they have all been reiterated time and time again. Just that people would love MvM gameplay, even in combat.

rennex · January 2004

CS rocks.

Refer to my sig if looking for relevance.

DralTheImpaler · January 2004

i suggested something of this nature in the I&S forums

i thought possibly combat, 4 teams AvAvMvM Free for all or something like that

Forlorn · January 2004

Dude, almost every game in existence is like CS, SUYF about the CS remarks

Shockeh · January 2004

Pong.

"Dude" pfft. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

I guess you could say it was possible in 1.0 but it wasnt really Marine v. Marine. The aliens would use the bug 'stopcommandermode' and they would change into a Marine with 100 Lmg Bullets and 20 HG bullets. They were as fast as a skulk and pretty tricky. I remember one guy had snuck up behind a team moving to, um, on ns_nancy I forget that one place they had you move to after getting the res right outside of your MS. Anyways one of the exploiting skulks got behind us and killed us all with knife. At that time we didn't know what was going on but later on it was a fun bug. It's a good thing they fixed that bug. Marine v. Marine is a pretty good idea, Alien v. Alien would be weird. *Pictures an Onos devouring a Fade* Yeah, pretty weird.

Heavy Armor VS Jetpacks. :D
