So now we have only 7 teams. Need more. So...
Deadline for registration is 21 February

If there is no more teams after next week we will start the season anyway.

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 February 10 19:51
My shaft is fine, thank you.
By: noway on 05 February 10 20:53
huhu do U mean about maps for season& if yes it depends on the number of teams/weeks
By: huhuh ( take over ) on 06 February 10 12:34
there's orbital and ayumi, so what i mean is what about mineshaft ? Add it !
By: Nerdish ( NewStyleD Return ) on 06 February 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 ( TeaM Fantasy ) on 06 February 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 ( take over ) on 06 February 10 13:39
& Bast cause too shit, & Nancy cause 1-way hives ftl. Caged would be nice.
By: psyc0mus ( kK kim ) on 06 February 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 February 10 15:04
Mineshaft is still just a bugmap. you press /stuck button more than you shot or jump
By: sonder on 06 February 10 16:03
Just keep ayumi and orbital in the list please! :b
By: dugi ( TROLLS ) on 06 February 10 16:04
fana says 1on1 doesn't work because he sucks at it.
By: ret on 06 February 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: AlmatyKZ ( RAMBOS ) on 07 February 10 14:35
without exact dates you win shit and not activity
By: Bacillus ( Quaxy ) on 07 February 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 ( TROLLS ) on 07 February 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 ( NINE SPROGGALEGENDS ) on 07 February 10 18:13
The new ayumi is great... people just can't be arsed to learn it...
By: aA ( TROLLS ) on 07 February 10 18:23
when some1 does not agree with you it doesnt neccesarly mean he's too lazy to learn something ; p
By: GibbZ ( NINE SPROGGALEGENDS ) on 07 February 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 ( RAMBOS ) on 07 February 10 19:43
remake of ayumi is shit
By: elynn ( TeaM Fantasy ) on 07 February 10 20:11
old ayumi was better
By: GibbZ ( NINE SPROGGALEGENDS ) on 07 February 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 ( TROLLS ) on 07 February 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 February 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 ( NINE SPROGGALEGENDS ) on 08 February 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 ( TROLLS ) on 08 February 10 00:55
Kick the germans now, they'll only go inactive...
By: Nerdish ( NewStyleD Return ) on 08 February 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 ( TROLLS ) on 08 February 10 12:19
I've played it plenty of times, it's not THAT good, but not that bad ;D.
By: EisTee ( NewStyleD Return ) on 09 February 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 ( New Team ) on 09 February 10 17:39
you aint german you faker
By: EisTee ( NewStyleD Return ) on 09 February 10 18:13
but i am in the german team.. but we alrdy decided not to play not enough ppl
By: ZiGGY on 10 February 10 01:10
2 weeks my ass :o
By: Sublime ( TROLLS ) on 10 February 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: EisTee ( NewStyleD Return ) on 10 February 10 01:40

Stop drinking man.
By: EisTee ( NewStyleD Return ) on 11 February 10 18:24

By: atman on 11 February 10 18:32
:D
By: GibbZ ( NINE SPROGGALEGENDS ) on 11 February 10 20:29
When did I judge Mineshaft nerdish?
By: Sublime ( TROLLS ) on 12 February 10 02:47
3 hours later you corrected the drunken spelling mistakes before going on another bender... blatant meights
By: EisTee ( NewStyleD Return ) on 12 February 10 20:24
Sshh .. don't tell the others sublime ;) !

pyro is the finest human being ever
By: Miglecz++ ( Stray Dogs ) on 16 February 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 on 16 February 10 21:07
saunamen was folded till ns2 as I know....
By: noway on 16 February 10 21:08
at least he was better then U doggo tbh...
By: dogo ( Stray Dogs ) on 16 February 10 21:13
And Migglecz is better lerk than you 100 times.
By: noway on 16 February 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 ( Stray Dogs ) on 16 February 10 21:34
You are playing gathers all the fucking days noway xD
By: noway on 16 February 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 ( Stray Dogs ) on 16 February 10 21:44
Congratulations, but learn to lerking please.
By: noway on 16 February 10 21:47
Do U still want me as a lerk?? so that why U want me to learn....^_^
By: Miglecz++ ( Stray Dogs ) on 16 February 10 22:59
And nowway is better engrish than you 100 times.
xD
By: dogo ( Stray Dogs ) on 17 February 10 00:14
hahahaha
By: NecRos_aka_Orgad ( MUTANT NIPPLE GAMING ) on 17 February 10 01:46
noway is good lerk! ^^ he can be aggressive enough to get frags and not die until fade goes up
By: tomato ( MUTANT NIPPLE GAMING ) on 17 February 10 14:05
shame he die's before the hive goes up :/
By: dogo ( Stray Dogs ) on 17 February 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 on 17 February 10 17:04
Dogo I play with adre now if U don't know ^_^
By: Sublime ( TROLLS ) on 17 February 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 ( TROLLS ) on 17 February 10 18:59
king_yo'd *COUGH COUGH*
By: VinceDotLink ( Stray Dogs ) on 17 February 10 19:07
"but adrenaline lerk is more hard"

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

*shocked*
By: dogo ( Stray Dogs ) on 17 February 10 19:29
I saw some lerks with adrenaline killing jps ... it is not only about gassing in vents ...
By: dogo ( Stray Dogs ) on 17 February 10 19:30
And Sublime, go blame your f*****....
By: Sublime ( TROLLS ) on 17 February 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 ( TROLLS ) on 17 February 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 ( take over ) on 17 February 10 21:15
most of top lerks play on adre now...
By: atman on 17 February 10 21:35
nerf adren lerks
By: Sublime ( TROLLS ) on 17 February 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 ( MUTANT NIPPLE GAMING ) on 17 February 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 on 18 February 10 14:36
hehe dugi^_^ tbh I started to play with adre mostly after I saw that king_yo does)))
By: Elvisq ( take over ) on 18 February 10 14:56
noway prepere the schedule ....
By: noway on 18 February 10 15:10
still need 1 more team(( can't contact with koreans...
By: Nerdish ( NewStyleD Return ) on 18 February 10 15:28
Just add a dummy team and consider it the team that folds or goes inactive..
By: Arj ( New Team ) on 18 February 10 17:24

Being drunk isn't an excuse. Ask Hopsu!
By: Elvisq ( take over ) on 19 February 10 21:32
It is.. ask take over!
By: EisTee ( NewStyleD Return ) on 20 February 10 02:04
I Agree ... all austrains are drunk while playing NS !
By: mu on 21 February 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 February 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 ( take over ) on 21 February 10 16:15
That was true in 3.1, not anymore.
By: mu on 21 February 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: tomato ( MUTANT NIPPLE GAMING ) on 21 February 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 ( take over ) on 21 February 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 February 10 23:07
10 teams ! :o
