The way NS2 is developed kinda makes me think that the developers regard NS1 as a failure ... taking away the imbalances of the game (marine need to push at the start, aliens defend until fade then push out etc), and making a starcraft version of NS2
hmm i played the ns2 beta for a while with the team 156 but grew tired of play the same map over and over and over and over. and now i really just don't like the game. i never played ns1 but the points you make in the video really make seem good. is ns1 was so good why even change it. also i believe the core of the performance problems stems from the fact that they used lua to code the game and not c++. Im also concerned about the number of maps on release. If its just 3 then may god have mercy!
I wouldn't say the things here are personal taste: #1 Basically means a lot less teamwork from commander #2 Separating the roles gorges do in NS1 into 2. Gorge wasn't overloaded, why do this#3 Prolonging the game, if you like that, you're weird #4 The only personal point here but w/e #5 you can't disagree with that if you played it
I am biased towards NS1 with better graphics, but some of these ideas are taking the good things of NS1 out, and replacing it with crap
It's called Beta for a reason, they are improving the game constantly, last 2 patches (190 & 191) were huge perfomance boosts, they are still workin on getting everything into the game, you can only balance so much without the complete game.
Most modern games, especially FPS games use the word "Beta" instead of "Demo", UWE actually listens to their community and changes things constantly.
If you want everything as it is in NS1, go play NS1.
Played NS1 competitively and NS2 competitively and, although the video lacks of another 5 more points, I can agree pretty much with this dude. And it bugs me since NS1 is the BEST FUCKING GAME THAT HAS BEEN EVER DEVELOPED.
I really liked this video! It got everything on the point expect the skill based movement thing which is bugging me the most. As a ns1 veteran I know how important it was to have a good movement as an alien. It was aim(marine) vs movement(alien). now it is aim vs boring! Flayra I love the idea that you want to make the game "better" and "different" but changing the good stuff just isn't the way
#1: "Doesn't fucking work, fuck this idea. *No elaborations* #2: I agree. #3: It's not like NS1 waaah. #4: I agree to an extent #5 If you cant see the amount of improvement from 6 months ago to now you're just a clown. The game runs sooo much better with the newest patch. Overall I think you just want NS1 in HD, which will come out with the final release, if the game is still built on LUA it will be extremely moddable.
3/4 of the thing mentionned are personnal taste. As for me Id rather manage my gears like a big man thank you. No static defense ? I think you missed the the rts/fps highlight of this game hmm hmm, you talk about the ''Cod generation'' then whine about game the length and strategy elements.Optimization needs work yes and it will be fulfilled.
One thing is certain, if you would work on NS, the game would be a very bland experience.
@rh3z no, they took a great game, decided to add changes that dont work, and are slowly catching on to the fact that the changes are wrong. prolonging release even further
There has been no official implications that the game will come out this summer, it has only been confirmed that it is coming out this year. So in all actuality, they have about 12 months to finish the game without breaking any promises.
@vidyagaymelive I'll use a quote from supernorn (ns2 forums): Rather than rant, it would have been more constructive if you provided possible solutions to the things you had problems with. A lot of your points come down to 'this is different, so I don't like it'.
I definitely think they could streamline a lot of the gameplay, reduce the turret spam, and optimize the hell out of the engine. It really needs to happen. Really soon after they finnnaaally introduce the jp's and onos.

I just hate that the alien perspective is in the eyes. I know NS1 did this as well, but I just feel it's a silly design decision.
It's annoying as hell to attack with constantly blinding animations.
