I can tell the game is getting there :) The graphics still look pretty nice, and we are definitely moving toward a playable state.

I don't mind the waiting, or the alpha quality releases, I'm just happy that there is a decent replacement to NS1 being made!

Keep up the excellent work guys!

    Yea, because people don't know the difference between a full game release, and an alpha release. Everyone expects some fully polished and 99.9% working game, when .. it's an alpha release. Stuff will be broken, but that's ok!

    At least another year is needed before release... at least.

    My favorite addition is the new shotgun reload sound. It is new right? I remember begging for the fun little charge up noise.

    Yeah, when you get a server going with just a few people on good hardware, the game is very playable. I'm not complaining. I just hope UWE successfully pursues their "patch more often" strategy; I'd like to be able to test changes more frequently :)

    Is this how you have to ease your mind from dissappointment or do you genuinely believe that this is version is any better regardless whether if there was progress or not.

    Not everyone has a lifetime to wait.

    Cool stuff that is being added. I have complete faith in the team. I think most of the people that are disappointed were expecting an actual working game with very few features as opposed to extremely early buggy work-in-progress type of stuff. I know what I paid for, its basically to have an inside look at what will be in the game before its out. I've gotten just that. The fact that I know these features will be in the game when its working well is exciting to me. Can't wait for more stuff. I'm actually more interested in modding/editing than anything else, I'd die to have official documentation on creating your own mod and other lua things, instead of snippets and half done user workarounds for things like that at the moment that I would have to search a needle in the haystack for. I'll just wait for something more structured to come about in the mean time though.

    I have a feeling Dynamic infestation will get people buzzing when it is finally put in. Same thing with the Fade.

    P.S. Does anyone else get the feeling that UW would not overlook its Halloween Anniversary of NS1? Maybe they have a cool reveal planned.

    152 is a lot better than 151 its still basically unplayable but if you compare the two you can tell its an improvement.
