    There will be dedicated servers. Mod ease of creation, installation, maintenance and indexation in server browser (Vanilla/Modded, nothing more specific yet) are all central features of the game so far.

    Everything else, we have pretty much zero info on anything yet. Hold on, Alpha is coming soon.

    this might sound crazy and yes i know its made for the half life engine and it might not be able to be ported over
    but is it possible to use amx or admin mod and is anyone looking in to it for ns2?

    or are tools similar to these addons being created for ns2?

    Only the alpha version of the editor has been released, amx and admin mod will probably be ported over to the Spark engine or something new will be made. But at this time, we haven't gotten our mits on the dedicated server and game yet...

    If all promised things will get released. then this new engine from UWE, will probably be more modable then the HL1 (goldSRC) and HL2 (source) engines combined :P But, we do not know this for sure yet...

    There are no dedicated servers in NS2, it will be P2P.

    There will be dedicated servers. As for the rest, that remains to be seen, sorry.

    Why would this possibly matter right now? You don't have the game, so you can't use them anyway. Not to mention, the engine test isn't going to have a dedicated server, so that's useless as well.

    1) Dedicated servers come with the Alpha, but for now only Win32.
    2) Modding as shown via the Engine Test is extremely easy using LUA. No one has built a framework to use such as amxmodx or anything else yet.
    3) Console commands are what you make. The basic ones are unknown.
