Sounds great but I don't recall.
I mainly worked on converting P models and V models over from AVP. It was o… -

I appreciate everyone's feedback and yeah, it sounds like this may be a better idea saved for something like NS3 as the tech requirements in NS2 are not ready in the current state of the game, unfortunately.

When we did custom models in NS1, we left the hitboxes the same as the core game.
I guess if it has to be a mod, the server would have to run that mod as well. Therefore, it's not worth doing. -
I am thoroughly enjoying the updates. HMG all the way, baby! (or I guess they are just calling it MG for now...)
-
I'm really pleased to see the HMG get added. I'm not sure how it plays in the game yet as it doesn't seem commanders have upgraded it often. Probably once people figure out where it fits in the meta, it'll probably see more use.
Any chan… -
Is it out of the question to change some of the alien models like, for example, have a different skin for the fade that also features a different head model?
-
Just throwing in my 2 cents. I for one appreciate everything that the new UWE team has done in the past few weeks. I check out the trello board every few days, I've been playing NS2 a heck of a lot more and I'm looking forward to future updates. Kee…

Judging from the NS2 Trello board, it looks like the Tundra skin pack will include skins for:
- Male Marine
- Female Marine
- LMG
- Shotgun
- Exosuit
So bearing that in mind, I would probab… -

Please also make the Imperial Scorpion skin...
Also, any idea how much the skin pack will cost? -

As someone who has spent $300+ in Warframe DLC, I have no problem supporting UWE if they release DLC skins or models.
UWE could use this money to produce new content, maps, gameplay modes, improvements, etc. -

I guess with AI commander, you'd have to have both teams go AI commander and not just one team because it might be unbalanced if only 1 team has AI Comm and the other team has a real comm. -
Kind of wish the commander could just be AI and we wouldn't have to worry about someone needing to go commander at the start of the round.
-
Man that Imperial Scorpion skin is awesome. I would buy that.
I prefer the more flashy skins. Rantology, your work is awesome! -
Yeah, it's discouraging having to wait 5-10 minutes in between games for someone to go commander.
-
I just browsed the new Trello board. Looking good indeed! You guys are definitely on the right track with the changes/improvements. Keep up the great work!

For only having 100 hours played, you've done a pretty amazing job summarizing the stuff that should be improved. I pretty much agree with every single point you posted.
I hope UWE sees this list.
-
What I have seen time and time again is after a round of NS2, we are all back in the ready room and no one wants to go commander so the team sits in the ready room for far too long and the player drop-off starts to happen. I can't express how often …
-
I'm definitely on board with what UWE is now planning to do with NS2.
We all knew that something needed to change with this game as it is a dying game, yet it has so much potential to be popular/amazing.
There's no doubt in m… -
Yeah they need to do something. I went to play today and there was only 1 server that was active but it was full so I couldn't join. It sucks that one of my favorite games is pretty much dead.
in NS2 Updates creating a 0.27% increase in players (half a person). What is the long-term plan? Comment by Daphisto October 2015

I noticed that's what Guild Wars 2 does for it's notifications too. Seems to work well if done in an elegant way. -
Just wondering, does anyone know if UWE will ever be interested in making NS3? There was an interview with Charlie Cleveland that sounded like he was put off by games with guns in them after the Sandy Hook massacre occurred.
Here's a sni… -

Unfortunately It's hard enough to find someone who will go commander on a 40 man server, let alone a 12 man server.
It looks like it is dead and buried. Hopefully the NS2 base game can gain some more players and keep itself alive for a few more years.I know it's an old thread, just hadn't had a chance to respond yet because I've been away from the game for a while.

With all respect to the developers, NS2C had equivalent gameplay to dozens of free-to-play browser-based shooters. Using the existing NS2 assets (models, sounds, etc.) and still charging a $15 price tag seemed anti-consumer.
<…I've played NS1 since pretty much when it came out (check my Join Date here), played the NS2 beta, saw NS2 launch and saw NS2 die (or dying, I guess you could say).

Yeah, I always wondered why that was like that. Makes sense! Hopefully the new version can complete that style throughout the map.

That's sweet. I can't wait for this to be completed. Eclipse was a classic map in NS1 but seemed to fade away pretty quickly after it launched for NS2.
Keep up the good work!
