You people questioning the designed player size need to read the damn thread.
I have quoted it here for your convenience. -
Sorry if you felt I was attacking you by pointing out what you did. I'll be man enough to admit that I was calling you out for your behaviour, though I'd hardly call it an attack. I didn't hurl any insults at you. I don't know you, you might be tota…

The devs have said that the game was designed around 8v8 +/- 2. So anything from 6v6 to 10v10. -
What new strategy does having 12 people per side open up?
I can't play on 24 player servers, it becomes too much like an fps deathmatch and less like a rts.
Play where you want to play.

Unless you are wanting to cause a beacon, which is a common tactic. If you want to cause a beacon, go for the power. Most coms will beacon to prevent losing power to a base, especially if there is an onos attacking. If they don't beacon, then they …

I believe it stacks with multiple gorges as well.
Certainly seems to. -

Noted. However my actual point was that it is definitely not designed to be balanced at 12v12. I have never seen a 6v6 server and figured that was the competition standard. So is 8v8 the actual competition standard and most competi… -
UWE has certainly designed the game to work in the 12-16 player range. 24 player servers are a compromise and don't work as well. This isn't opinion, it's a result of UWE's vision.
There's nothing wrong with prefering larger servers, but… -

Effectiveness is the word you meant. Effectivity may technically be a word, but it is a wanky psuedo word made up by someone who forgot that the word effectiveness existed.

Facegates?
That made me giggle. -

If you didn't read it, you really shouldn't comment on it.
It wasn't even much to read. How lazy are people these days?

If no one uses it, it might as well not be in the game. If they aren't going to make it viable, dump it and make something that is.
Or just add focus to it. Anyone who played NS1 really misses focus. A focus/carapace skulk would be viab… -

In this case you may be right as accounting for server size appears to be very important to the results and, apparently, ns2stats has 24 player servers over-represented.
I thought you were making that same old argument … -

Care to explain how a significant sample size like ns2stats is not accurate?
If you can do so, you should be teaching at a university and schooling all those silly statisticians on why what they do is completely bogus. -
Conceding should give the other team a minute or so to hunt you down and slaughter you. I know there is a "surrender" mod that works this way. I like it since it gives the winning team the joy of finishing off their opponents.

I like this idea. Especially the jetpack part. I also think they would be more interesting as specialized support units, which is what would be their role as an extension of the gorge.
-
Mostly they seem like a toy. Their AI is still sketchy, so they are difficult to reliably control.
The armor effect could be a nice use for them if they stayed attached until they were shot off. I think they only last 20 seconds currentl… -
The dual mini usually wins a 1v1 vs an Onos in my experience. Unless the Onos takes the dual by surprise and is able to circle him. Seems to me that they designed it to be a very even match in most situations.
Also, stomp does nothing to… -

Not the point I was making. I was talking about you saying that anyone that disagrees with you is bad at this game. Is that one of those things that has a distinct, obvious answer?
If you want to talk about things with … -

What is your proof for this? You seem to be saying that going Crag first would enable a team that is not as skilled to win. If upgrade chosen is the determining factor, then this isn't a game, it's a choose your own adventure story… -

Anyone who disagrees with you is clearly bad at the game?
Wow. That is some serious self stroking you are doing there.
Who is more ignorant? The man who makes blanket statements with no exceptions or the man… -

Totally. I had this terrible game where I barely went 56-2 as a lerk. I can't believe I sucked that bad. Next game though, I was back to 1,000,000-0.

Your sarcasm is noted.
The funny thing is, you completely negate your argument yourself and I don't really have to say anything. I mean, you admitted that the JP wasn't even required to do what you claim to have done. W… -
Haven't read all the subsequent posts but the original post seems to prove that bile bombing gorges are overpowered. I mean look at all the advice just to deal with one 10 pres unit. That amount of work may make sense for a 50 pres or greater unit b…

Weren't you the one that started this ridiculous passive vs aggressive nonsense?

Bile bomb is the biggest problem in the game right now.
It is totally op for its cost. If a few gorges run into an empty base they can have the power down ridiculously fast. And even if you manage to notice the attack right away and ge… -
