When I first played it I though there were openings for it and though "well that fits nicely." The next time I played I noticed it.

So they haven't patched the unlimited missiles yet?
[QUOTE=Itszutak;23585329]So they haven't patched the unlimited missiles yet?[/QUOTE] it's just a console command, nothing to really be patched.
People are reaching the max level way too quickly. Valve should make it so that each promotion you need more exp for each level and after you get 3 promotions your next one gives you another bronze metal, and so forth until you have done that 10 times.

If there are no new official campagins people can easily get all the items playing Jacob's rest and go play custom campagins.
[QUOTE=Fatfatfatty;23584970]Looks like shit. And on the pipeline map (forgot the exact name) when you have to walk over the bloodhound the engine of it clips through the floor.[/QUOTE] That whole scene looks stupid as hell, he lands it in there perfectly on his first try and holds it completely still...

[QUOTE=Itszutak;23585329]So they haven't patched the unlimited missiles yet?[/QUOTE] It's a cvar and only admins can modify it.
I don't know, but (sadly) the game is free and they don't want to do something for free. They are going to make some fixes and maybe buff/nerf some items.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9d_cKkICedw[/media] Lambda squad ran Rydberg reactor. We got speedrun first go, it was freakin' amazing.
Tesla was NERFED :D
This game has pretty much given me the courage to try out the SDK, here is my first ever test map :v: [img]http://cubeupload.com/files/2b1640firstmapevar2.jpg[/img] Nothing good, just happy i got this shit in-game!
Hey empty_shadow, any chance i could join you guys sometimes? It's quite hard to find good groups when just joining random servers. Managed to complete insane yesterday cause i had a okay group, but i would love to play with some really good players.
I just got our run of Landing bay up. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbFqh7dAyNs[/media] Our team is all aussies so I doubt many people can speedrun with us.
I need a team to do speedruns.
[QUOTE=Euphe;23586271]I need a team to do speedruns.[/QUOTE] I could try.
Ok, add me on steam. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/euphemia/[/url]
[QUOTE=Euphe;23585684]Tesla was NERFED [b]:D[/b][/QUOTE] why are you happy
[QUOTE=Euphe;23586327]Ok, add me on steam. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/euphemia/[/url][/QUOTE] Something about being in Russia tells me we won't be up at the same time.
[QUOTE=TheLolrus;23586364]Something about being in Russia tells me we won't be up at the same time.[/QUOTE] There is a thing you need to know. I am Russian :3 Tesla was uber. Too bad it was nerfed A LITTLE. So now it deals 4 damage instead of(!!!) 20, but stun and ammo is kept.
I'll assume that means time difference won't be a problem.
Does anyone know if there are any resources or leftovers from the maps last rites and bio research? I found them while looking through the SAM (not using it just looking).
[QUOTE=Euphe;23586371] Tesla was uber. Too bad it was nerfed A LITTLE. So now it deals 4 damage instead of(!!!) 20, but stun and ammo is kept.[/QUOTE] Without stun and ammo it'd be pretty much the worst gun in the game, and more useless than the flares.
Aparently Bio Research went between SynTek Residential and Sewer Junction B5, and Last Rites appeared after Timor Station.
[QUOTE=Pat.Lithium;23585408]Is Valve going to at least make some of the better community campaigns official?[/QUOTE] Probably. Just like they've been doing with TF2. In the mod for UT2K4, there was a biolabs level that was heavily trapped with tripmines. You had to jump over them a lot, and if any swarm came while you were jumping over a trap, you were boned. It was a very fun level, kinda like the SynTek one. Non-Linear, destroy eggs. Actually, I think they replaced the labs with the SynTek personell quarters one. Shame they didn't keep the tripmine traps.
I loved this game. Level 10 only, but i still ove this. I usually go male heavy weapons with a minigun, sentry and a medkit. I don't see why people dont use the sentry gun, it's freaking awesome. Oh yeah, i don't do speedruns so that my explain it. I like to take my time with my team. Also, it might be because my graphics card sucks and i get like, 8-30 fps when playing. Usually around 10. If it was at 75 i bet i'd be better, but oh well. This is why i use the sentry gun so much, it does the aiming FOR me.
[QUOTE=Happyfaic;23586360]why are you happy[/QUOTE] I'm happy, the Tesla was a utility weapon being used for the main force in the squads attacks. Being a medic I use the Tesla to slow down oncoming shit and also to recharge my Sentry Coils, and with no friendly fire damage it really was OP.
Oh, and, also, the cargo elevator is my favourite part of the campaign, the next being the climax in the last map. You know, running to the Bloodhound. In both scenes, it playes either one of THESE: (which i love) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qi2TLykPKy0[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A12-KN5UijA[/media] Epic battles. Slaying swarms with a minigun with those songs playing.
