: 1. Maybe make the game a bit more HPW friendly, anyone
: who has played me has seen that i cant rail worth shit

When I first played NH it was on a server with about 380 ping, I still rocked. What I would do is be at corners and such where they had to turn on lite and stop for a sec.. ker-pOW!

: with of ping of 300+, The RL is too weak...maybe you
: could find a happy medium between the two?

With harder hitting RL pred would get into fire-fights DM still, or tend that way at least. It would definatley not live long. On the other hand ..an RL pred in stealth mode would be very deadly. Sure the RL has a cycle time between shots but its 1/2 the time of a rail.

: 2. I think it would also be cool if you could add the
: %L(location) varible that is in CTF. This way it would be easier
: for marines to communicate where the pred is to each other.

Not bad, "sightings" in general work quite good, this would help.

: 3. Instead of being booted immediatly after 4 friendly
: kills, I think maybe after the second one the offender
: will be penalized in some kind of way(can't pick up
: items,cant fire...etc..)for a min or so.
: Also flash what they did wrong across the screen
: so they don't kill 3 people before someone tells
: them what they did wrong(ive seen it happen).

Yep, always a problem from new folks. There is a message everytime the kill a Marines but they don't read that. Default Marine_kill is 5, I shortened it to 4. Still seems like too manY! 8-)
Originaly we had NH make thier Q2 quit completely. Now it just does the simple kick, allowwing them to see the current msg.

: 4. Custom maps, of course

: 5. This just a little pet peeve of mine,
: I think you should start with blaster selected
: not flares.You should be able to throw the flares
: while you have a weapon selected. Like a off-hand
: grapple(lithium)

Most better players have a "best weap'" macro and its not realy a problem.
Worth considering though, off hand. 8-)

: 6. Put the binds in the MOTD or something.

All the binds? That would kill the -M-otD

: 7. New powerups

......like?

: I have more, but im just too lazy to write them all :)
: these are the main ones.

: long live NH :)

..death to the pred'! 8-)
