Throwback Weekends

Summary: This would make all weekend rounds go back to the old Colonial Marines with the LO lines and the hangers that atmos always messed up.

Benefits: It would give old players like me good memories of us rarely on this server and always picking alpha squad until the LO's get tired of assigning alphas. It would also show new members how CM was before they started playing.

Details: On the weekend of a certain time zone admins will start playing on the old map.

Implementation: Tell all admins when the time zone is so they know when to start playing the map.

And the combat janitors that pull a janitor cart round after a fierce battle to clean the place up because the marines were sloppy in the fight, It would be fun to see all the stuff again

I think this was the plan, but it just never actually happenend. +1

This would generally be really nice so that some players can have the feel for pre-alpha if they weren't there, or if they were there it's a grant chance to have a nice bit of nostalgia.

I have many a fond memory of Nostromo... I'd definitely like to see it again, if only to play engineer on my home turf. Never did get a chance to try a few things I was taught and that's the perfect map for it. +1

I for one think this is a perfect idea! to go back to the old map for maybe a few rounds or so? it would bring back some good memories and give us a chance to remember what it was like without having to watch some YouTube vid or something. It would also give new players a good chance to see what CM was like before the alpha build. +1

Going to bump this just for the pure nostalgia value.

I still want more Nostromo...

Someday guys, someday.

If Nostromo is still in the code, this would be fantastic. I miss the LO lines so much. +1

I think if we are doing proper throwback then we need to go all the way back to the square table briefing room. That good old time when your squad was decided by the colour of your suit and when the entire marine base was comprised of a room of lockers and a briefing area.

Still relevant also bump because it's a great suggestion, even if this only happens for one day.

Make it a gamemode much like WO etc and let heads turn it on? \o7

I'd totally be up to bask in the nostalgia with everyone. +1

Every weekend seems a bit much. Especially because some players only play on the weekends.

Maybe once a month would be more acceptable. But it could be fun.

+1 Ive never played pre-alpha, i think it was called, and I would really love to try it. AI huggers sound wonderful.

TopHatPenguin · Post by **TopHatPenguin** » 23 Oct 2016, 19:26

Been thinking about this more and pretty much on which ever day is chosen you could have a Pre-Alpha code server hosted and the Current one hosted, just for that day and then afterwards the Pre-Alpha one gets taken down again for that month. Well along those lines.

-This is if we are able to field a second server just for the specific day that is.

+1, i miss the Nostromo

Bump..

Alright.

You have no idea how many times I've asked for this.

It has my +1 but let me tell you why it is going to get shot down.

1.) The Pre-Alpha Code is old and the Current BYOND can't run it without crashes.
2.) With 1, it would take alot of time for Devs to get it playable.

Obscurify · Post by **Obscurify** » 03 Jan 2017, 00:09

yes +1

and only because of nostalgia when me, alpha squad, and Alpha's leader (xur) got stuck on the nostromo alone and stuck it out through literal hell, then proceeded to regroup and kill the entire hive
