    Flayra was on vacation for awhile, but he's been back for a few weeks now. Nobody has really heard much out of him lately (that I know of anyway). I suspect he's working on HLTV for 3.0b4 but don't quote me on that.

    Or he may be working on establishing Unknown Worlds.

    Umm errr

    It would be kinda interesting to know what he does spend all his time on, because obviously he isn't like any normal person, he must do something extra-ordinary, eat titanium or something for strength?

    hehe ya well we know he does that everyday any way but it would be cool if he wrote .plan files. Maybe some one could sugest that to him.

    I hear Flayra is going to remove Acid rockets; Make Umbra hive 3 ability; decrease Stomp ability; increase Hive cost; increase shotgun damage; decrease HA cost; increase electrified field damage range; decrease electrified field cost; and give each marine a tactical smart bomb.

    All of which would not surprise me.

    What about 'reimplementing siege autotarget' and 'increasing marine RT output'?

    I certainly wouldn't be shocked either.

    Cant forget these great new balancing changes coming up in 3.0b4:
    - Changed the skulk to 50/5.
    - Hive health decreased to half because it was took hard for "No Commander" to siege down the hive.
    - Marines now have a Stealth Suit giving them abilities similiar to Cloaking, but they can be attached to LA/HA/JP for 5 res.
    - Marines now have an upgradeable 'auto-heal', and 'auto-weld' when in the vicinity of the armory like a Hive healing effect.
    - Gorges no longer have Web. Instead they have insane chuckling that will drive the marine insane.
    - Gorges no longer have Spit as it was deemed to "pwn" too many people called "NSPlayer."
    - Flamethrowers added. Just shoot it in a vent, and watch Skulks, Gorges, Lerks, Fades, and Onos run away in fear or die in the process.
    - Grenades further bugged to increase the damage and range of the "silent nade."

    Last but not least...
    - Blink has been removed from Fades because it was "Not fair" to the HA/HMG Marines who had to shoot in vain while the fade Blinked away.

    Flayra is juggling work on Beta 4, Constellation management, and the establishment of UWE. You'll hear more soon.

    You guys gotta remember, Flayra is still human, so he needs a break once in a while to stay sane. I would rather him take a two month break and clear his mind than stress himself to the breaking point. So lets be patient for now, he's got a lot on his plate.

    What are you talking about, in 3.0 to balance things out here is the change log:
    - Marines now have an upgradable ability "speed hax" and "aimbot"
    - Aliens now can place 3 upgrade chambers using only 1 hive for balance issues
    - Gorge's can now upgrade to the "Battle Gorge" with 100 dmg spit and 20 dmg spikes instead of healing spray
    - Marines now have armor Rechargers and Jump Packs which also exist in "Half-life" in their base (Making level 3 armor useless for Light Armos and jpers, since it can give you up to 100 armor)
    - Aliens can now press the +use key in hive if they're a gorge to go in hive and command the aliens like in marines
    - Carapace now gives aliens a 99.9999% reduce damage and 3 times as many armor as your orginal max armor
    - Medpacks and Ammo Packs now can be used by the aliens auto (Ammo gives Energy to Aliens and Medpacks give health to aliens, To Prevent med/ammo spam)
    And the best one everyone thought would balance things out
    - When gorges chuckle it will damage all marines within a 20 mile radius by 20 damage and it also stuns them for 20 secs. (Useful when gorges are defenseless)
