ENSL

By: Fana ( Archaea ) on 05/Feb/10 17:15

1v1 combat just doesn't work. I tried making some rules for it back in the day, but it's pretty much impossible to make playable. Either the marine has no incentive to leave base (or he can't because the alien will chomp the chair) or the alien has no incentive to leave the hive.

What about mineshaft

By: Nerdish ( NewStyleD Return ) on 05/Feb/10 19:51

My shaft is fine, thank you.

By: noway ( The Team ) on 05/Feb/10 20:53

huhu do U mean about maps for season& if yes it depends on the number of teams/weeks

By: huhuh ( Danny Est Gros ) on 06/Feb/10 12:34

there's orbital and ayumi, so what i mean is what about mineshaft ? Add it !

By: Nerdish ( NewStyleD Return ) on 06/Feb/10 12:41

Ayumi has some flaws despite all the playtests and many people don't even want to play it in the gather.
And Mineshaft isn't even listed among the gather maps and I doubt many know the map at all.

I'm no big fan of Orbital, but at least it's known and established among a lot of players.

By: TrC ( Exertus ) on 06/Feb/10 13:26

I want to see more maps, even the unbalanced ones. lost,mineshaft,new and old ayumi the heck everything except hera and the new wtf space map I forgot lael.

By: huhuh ( Danny Est Gros ) on 06/Feb/10 13:39

& Bast cause too shit, & Nancy cause 1-way hives ftl. Caged would be nice.

By: psyc0mus ( minions ) on 06/Feb/10 14:22

i like the "new" auymi also the old mineshaft that had a double-res and the cool U-turn :P dont know my way around the new mineshaft

By: beefcake on 06/Feb/10 15:04

Mineshaft is still just a bugmap. you press /stuck button more than you shot or jump

By: sonder ( The Team ) on 06/Feb/10 16:03

Just keep ayumi and orbital in the list please! :b

By: dugi on 06/Feb/10 16:04

fana says 1on1 doesn't work because he sucks at it.

By: ret ( Sexiest Men Alive ) on 06/Feb/10 17:48

i agree with fana on this completely when i read the topic on 1v1 i said oh thats going to be fun to watch.. i.e camping to the max. on that note CS anyone?

By: Gerhard ( Team Two ) on 07/Feb/10 14:35

without exact dates you win shit and not activity

By: Bacillus ( Quaxy ) on 07/Feb/10 14:59

Caged is good enough I guess. Gen hive is nasty, but otherwise it's playable.

Eon is too big for my tastes, it's extremely difficult to react to anything in time and every fail is multiplied because of how long it takes to regain the map spread after losing units.

By: aA on 07/Feb/10 17:01

there are reasons why we are not playing certain maps competitivly, and why in other games some maps arent being played either ; p

By: GibbZ ( 9L ) on 07/Feb/10 18:13

The new ayumi is great... people just can't be arsed to learn it...

By: aA on 07/Feb/10 18:23

when some1 does not agree with you it doesnt neccesarly mean he's too lazy to learn something ; p

By: GibbZ ( 9L ) on 07/Feb/10 18:49

Well I've hardly seen anyone say the remake of ayumi is shit... Actually infact, I've never heard any negative comments about it. So then I can only assume that people are too lazy to learn it.

By: pyro on 07/Feb/10 19:43

remake of ayumi is shit

By: naduli on 07/Feb/10 20:11

old ayumi was better

By: GibbZ ( 9L ) on 07/Feb/10 20:46

The remake fixed so many issues which made the old one shit for competetive... The remake also had so many versatile tactics allowing for almost every chamber.

By: aA on 07/Feb/10 22:01

you can assume everything you want and see things however you want them to be, i dont see any potential in new ayumi, too complicated and too big and that's my point of view ;p

By: qin on 08/Feb/10 00:03

New ayumi is carbage, 1 on 1 doesn't seem team based enough, Mineshaft; never got stuck in it, peace.

By: GibbZ ( 9L ) on 08/Feb/10 00:06

Yet, metal and origin are just as big and probably more complicated with all the vent systems? However they're both still extremely good maps. I honestly feel the maps been judged before sufficient playtime.

By: sublime on 08/Feb/10 00:55

Kick the germans now, they'll only go inactive...

By: Nerdish ( NewStyleD Return ) on 08/Feb/10 11:50

Gibbz, you judged the mineshaft remake before really playing it, just like most players though, so how can you complain about that now?

People are complaining that ayumi_e is too big and that pressure-starthive isn't optimal, because the map lacks a fast travelling-route from pressure-hive side to AE-hive/Glass Hallway.

Anyway, I agree that ppl just can't be arsed to play and learn the map, but still are quick in judging it.

By: dugi on 08/Feb/10 12:19

I've played it plenty of times, it's not THAT good, but not that bad ;D.

By: EisTeeAT on 09/Feb/10 15:58

i kind of fear that Sublime might be right ... i am not quite sure if we even have 6 ppl active atm XD

By: Arj ( Netherlands ) on 09/Feb/10 17:39

you aint german you faker

By: EisTeeAT on 09/Feb/10 18:13

but i am in the german team.. but we alrdy decided not to play not enough ppl

By: ZiGGY on 10/Feb/10 01:10

2 weeks my ass :o

By: sublime on 10/Feb/10 01:22

Hang on EisTee you're german? I thought you were Austrian!

SO SORRY

I'll make sure to call you a german from now on... :)

By: EisTeeAT on 10/Feb/10 01:40

.. BAD SUBLIME BAD !!!! *swingingTheFist*

By: sublime on 11/Feb/10 15:47

Stop drinking man.

By: EisTeeAT on 11/Feb/10 18:24

actually i am sober

By: atman on 11/Feb/10 18:32

:D

By: GibbZ ( 9L ) on 11/Feb/10 20:29

When did I judge Mineshaft nerdish?

By: sublime on 12/Feb/10 02:47

3 hours later you corrected the drunken spelling mistakes before going on another bender... blatant meights

By: EisTeeAT on 12/Feb/10 20:24

Sshh .. don't tell the others sublime ;) !

By: fitoX ( 250 de ping ) on 13/Feb/10 17:43

when does this season start?
depending on that we'll join in.

By: noway ( The Team ) on 13/Feb/10 23:55

pyro is the finest human being ever

By: Miglecz++ on 16/Feb/10 20:43

why Dogo's link videos quality is worse than this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atNXwGYgVIM
and why saunamen not playing s14?
we just let NS to die silently? :P

By: noway ( The Team ) on 16/Feb/10 21:07

saunamen was folded till ns2 as I know....

By: noway ( The Team ) on 16/Feb/10 21:08

at least he was better then U doggo tbh...

By: dogo on 16/Feb/10 21:13

And Migglecz is better lerk than you 100 times.

By: noway ( The Team ) on 16/Feb/10 21:16

ok)))I agree^_^ I can agree with that if people say that Mig is better( I am just student-lerk)))

By: dogo on 16/Feb/10 21:34

You are playing gathers all the fucking days noway xD

By: noway ( The Team ) on 16/Feb/10 21:40

it's better then playing only 1 pcw per month. but I play pcws: at least 2 per week with my team and 1-2 more with russians.

By: dogo on 16/Feb/10 21:44

Congratulations, but learn to lerking please.

By: noway ( The Team ) on 16/Feb/10 21:47

Do U still want me as a lerk?? so that why U want me to learn....^_^

By: Miglecz++ on 16/Feb/10 22:59

And nowway is better engrish than you 100 times.
xD

By: dogo on 17/Feb/10 00:14

hahahaha

By: NecRos_aka_Orgad ( Team Three ) on 17/Feb/10 01:46

noway is good lerk! ^^ he can be aggressive enough to get frags and not die until fade goes up

By: 360ms on 17/Feb/10 14:05

shame he die's before the hive goes up :/

By: dogo on 17/Feb/10 16:55

Well ... he is not bad lerk, but i prefer adrenaline lerks than cele lerks. (All players can be lerk and get some frags with cele, but adrenaline lerk is more hard to play and help more to the team).

By: noway ( The Team ) on 17/Feb/10 17:04

Dogo I play with adre now if U don't know ^_^

By: sublime on 17/Feb/10 17:57

Adren is not more difficult you cretin. Anyone can sit in a fucking vent and spore at the largest group of marines on the map for christ's sake.

By: dugi on 17/Feb/10 18:59

king_yo'd *COUGH COUGH*

By: VinceDotLink ( Stray Dogs ) on 17/Feb/10 19:07

"but adrenaline lerk is more hard"

I though it was the cele lerk that was hard to play.

*shocked*

By: dogo on 17/Feb/10 19:29

I saw some lerks with adrenaline killing jps ... it is not only about gassing in vents ...

By: dogo on 17/Feb/10 19:30

And Sublime, go blame your f*****....

By: sublime on 17/Feb/10 21:14

Dogo I'm not talking about your world of inept marines down there in division Z.

I'm assuming you mean JP+LMGs because even with cele it is nigh on impossible to kill a JP+SG or HMG as lerk if you're playing skilled marines.

Also, blame my what?

By: sublime on 17/Feb/10 21:15

And don't give me situational bullshit like if the jetpacker has run out of ammo you absolute waste of carbon.

By: Elvisq ( Team Four ) on 17/Feb/10 21:15

most of top lerks play on adre now...

By: atman on 17/Feb/10 21:35

nerf adren lerks

By: sublime on 17/Feb/10 22:36

There aren't any top lerks left and you can do what an adren lerk does with cele.

By: NecRos_aka_Orgad ( Team Three ) on 17/Feb/10 23:05

yes you can make marines group spores 24/7 with cele, but not if they spread around or if you want to add umbra.

that said, adre is still WAY EASIER then celerity lerks (no not everyone can get frags with lerk lol, its not a pub) now that the lerk has been nerfed.

By: noway ( The Team ) on 18/Feb/10 14:36

hehe dugi^_^ tbh I started to play with adre mostly after I saw that king_yo does)))

By: Elvisq ( Team Four ) on 18/Feb/10 14:56

noway prepere the schedule ....

By: noway ( The Team ) on 18/Feb/10 15:10

still need 1 more team(( can't contact with koreans...

By: Nerdish ( NewStyleD Return ) on 18/Feb/10 15:28

Just add a dummy team and consider it the team that folds or goes inactive..

By: Arj ( Netherlands ) on 18/Feb/10 17:24

Thats my way!

By: Bacillus ( Quaxy ) on 19/Feb/10 20:58

Being drunk isn't an excuse. Ask Hopsu!

By: Elvisq ( Team Four ) on 19/Feb/10 21:32

It is.. ask take over!

By: EisTeeAT on 20/Feb/10 02:04

I Agree ... all austrains are drunk while playing NS !

By: mu on 21/Feb/10 15:43

proper lerks take celerity. if youre good youll have an mc on the map where marines are likely to congregate then you can fly around and waste their bullets and kill the last guy when hes reloading as well as sporespam them. get good. adren is for shit lerks

By: mu on 21/Feb/10 15:47

also a good cele lerk can do 90% of the spore damage an adren lerk can do due to spores not stacking. taking adren as lerk is like taking adren as fade because you run out of energy all the time while blinking. god damn

By: Fana ( Archaea ) on 21/Feb/10 16:15

That was true in 3.1, not anymore.

By: mu on 21/Feb/10 16:17

i dont even know what version it is now & what changed!?!?!
oh just the speed
Modified lerk flight
Increased the base lerk speed to 650.
Reduced the effect of celerity on lerk flight from 25 to 20 ( per chamber ).
Lerks now lose more speed when they climb, but still dive quickly.

i didnt realise it made lerks that much worse i just thought nobody was good !

By: 360ms on 21/Feb/10 17:18

yeh spore spread clearly sucks o_O.. btw marines tend to move when you put one blob of spores in a room. Good adren lerks can still waste marine bullets and sweep the last marines

By: huhuh ( Danny Est Gros ) on 21/Feb/10 19:35

Adren lerk is way safer ( if you play it the right way ofc ) than cele-bite one, so I guess it's quite better for pcws...

By: cond0r ( 2RAM ) on 21/Feb/10 23:07

10 teams ! :o

The 14th Season!
