Good to know I was wrong about the way it tracks players. My assumption was that the partial games only counted for late joiners, not early leaving.
-
Isn't it a bit silly to try to balance skill purely around win/loss when so many people F4 or disconnect when losing with no repercussions against their ranking?
-
As long as I'm having an enjoyable time while playing, winning or losing is fine with me.
There have been plenty of games where I had a ton of fun and lost at the end, which I would vastly prefer to replay than other rounds where I was o… -

I just like that he's been on the forums for four months and this is his first post.
Half-Life 4 confirmed.
Edit: I'm not good at maths, references, or conspiracies involving scavenger hunts wit… -
Now look what you guys did. Who's going to be able to correct the way IronHorse has been behaving?
As for the post count counting towards polls idea, I guess I don't have any polls in mind for the next decade or two, so I'm ok with that… -

Another vote for the tactical gamer servers. I stumbled into a captains game years ago in NS1 and have been there ever since.
Since they are fairly strict regarding their rules, it's a good place to enjoy some games without having to d… -

No kidding. Of course it doesn't help that I remember pumping quarters into a Mario Brothers arcade twenty years prior to that. NS has definitely kept my a… -
Sup freebird, is this where the old timers post?
To be 100% honest, I probably wouldn't have even installed steam for years had NS1 not suddenly required it. A couple of weeks without being able to play forced me, and God steam was te… -
It stays alive only because people post in it.

Awesome! I look forward to watching more scrims and matches utilizing shade first on twitch.tv.
-
Often the main reason I don't go shade first as a khamm is that I know who the marine comm is and that he knows how to counter it.

This is my first online name, from 1998 or so. My wedding ring got bent at work a couple of days before logging on for the first time.
Still use it for a few forums obviously, but I was just in the mood for a gaming name change. I had o… -

I'm not asking for anything to be changed
a) Of course distance is good but I've been shooting what's in my face with explosives for years in games, knowing I'll die too and not caring
b) All my teammates had GL since w… -
While I definitely agree to the spirit of this thread regarding GL spam, one thing that really bugs me when I'm a marine with a JP+GL is when I meet an alien en route and shoot it in the face, only to be too close and have the nade drop to the floor…

It seems to me that the nav_debug issue being an exploit is much more related to times it's used during the game rather than as a base finder. I would also like to see it put on dev or cheats or at least make it only show in commander view with li…

Put a phase gate in a doorway with a good line of sight in both directions. Put a battery in each room for 6 turrets to guard the gate, and each other.
-
At this point I would be happy to drop the current fade abilities (although I do use SS when it's available) and just have the fade get a percentage of the non chosen upgrades. For example, evolving adren would also give you 20-30% of the speed bo…

Slow down there joshhh, before long people will think you mean teamwork is useful or something.

If one person is trumpeting concede, and you don't agree, you should be telling the rest of the team that instead of conceding now we should try this or that first, then we will concede if everything fails.

I was at the start of a NS1 game, had to leave for work about an hour into it (2nd shift), and it was still going when I got back home.
I may be in the minority, but personally I enjoy that a NS2 game is considered long if it's an hour... -

And doing this in game caused the skulk to miss you completely and you watched him slide past you like Bambi on ice, resulting in you killing him?
If the skulks in a server are playing are playing that poorly, I don't s… -

Marines can't jump backwards out of the way of a skulk like you're describing. Try it in game. Press backwards and jump and see how that works out.
When marines juke a skulk this way they are doing something more simi… -

Well, we are talking about pubs here. People that play on those servers may not have mastered the techniques necessary for reading the text, processing the information given, then finding and selecting their voting keys in such a… -
I'm confused. Is IronHorse going to do a poll dance for us now?
Never know how these new guys might like to celebrate. -

My favorite place for mines is the ceiling in the hallway of nanogrid if marines pushed out aliens early-mid game. Killed so many lerks there I've lost count. -

If AFKers fluffing the player count is what UWE wanted they would add random drops and hats.
The best overall solution to this problem is to play on servers with active admins. Then start a thread trying to get an of…
