While NS2 just came out many of us have been playing NS for the last 10 years already. As a result there is already a lot of nick names and acronyms that are used and below is the list to help all the new players know wtf everyone is talking about:

CC = Command Chair (that box your commander is in)
COM = Commander
AA = Advanced Amory (where you buy GLs and FTs)
GL = Grenade Launcher
FT = Flame Thrower (ok this is a new one)
JP = Jetpack
OBS = Observation something (the thing with the satellite dish)
Ping = A scan done by the obs to reveal enemies
PG = Phase Gate (the blue thing you walk into to teleport to the next pg)
RT = Resource Tower (Extractor/Harvester)
LMG = Light Machine Gun (the gun you start with)
Double = A room/location containing 2 RTS
Gas = Spores (the hive 2 ability for learks)
Marine Start = What ever location the marine first/starting base is
DC = defense chamber or Creg (heals shit around it) or Shell in the case of DC upgrades
MC = movement chamber or Shift (grants energy around it) or Shift related upgrades like speed
SC = sensory chamber or Shade (cloaks around it) or Vail upgrades
