    If there is, expect it in 2020. The PC Version has taken almost as long as DNF.

    This would presumably be in the context of facts being completely optional.

    An Xbox version is being considered but we want to get the PC version as good as possible before working on anything else.

    Oh come on, I like to troll as much as the next guy, but you could at least remain _somewhat_ factually correct. DNF has had a good 13 years of development under it's belt, along with a ton of money. NS2 has had neither, unless you were going for the good ol' hyperbole to make an attempt at humour, in which case, try again.

    Ugh, FPS/RTS on a console... PC is the only way it should be played.

    Suppose it's alright for the people that cant afford a good PC setup.

    This. Both FPS and RTS suck on console, to me this is a disaster. Halo Wars only worked because it was really simplistic.

    There is no way they could make a good first person shooter version for phones but a purely RTS version of NS2 could work out well.

    COnsoles are considered the cancer of the gaming world by the majority of PC players, that's why. Not every PC player thinks this way, but alot do. Just look at the latest RAGE debacle.

    HEY, I hate consoles as much as the next guy, theyre holding back pc gaming, graphics, level sizes... etc... grumble.

    But I still fully agree with a console version of the game, it would be good for publicity, good financially...

    Oh wait, I forgot, if UWE wanted to release this game, they would need to buy a $1 million license or something...

    Because theyre not using XNA C#.

    That's going to be a problem.

    Unless the consoles fix their licensing setups, I doubt we would see an xbox version, and since UWE decided to use DirectX as their current Graphics API, theres no chance of a ps3 or mac version of the game any time soon.

    Damn consoles, and their damn licensing, and damn microsoft, and their damn direct x... DAMN IT!

    I still would like to see UWE put out a console game in the future, even if it isn't natural selection 2.

    I wouldn't say most pc gamers hate consoles. Just that us who are indifferent don't really have anything to add to discussions.

    I've grown to like console gaming, but a large problem is that everything is made for every console now when it absolutely shouldn't be. FPS and RTS games shouldn't be made for consoles because they have to be terribly dumbed down for them. Then the devs start developing primarily for console and porting to PC, and the PC version ends up sucking even more when it should be better (like RAGE, the newer COD games, etc.). Since these games play on all consoles, the games are generally developed for the lowest common denominator, in most cases the 360. Because the 360 has weaker hardware than both PS3 and PC, PS3 and PC games are essentially dumbed down to 360 capacity.

    There are plenty of games on console I love and would not want to play on PC, such as Demon's Souls/Dark Souls, the Armored Core series, Twisted Metal and others. There are also plenty of games that do fine on both console and PC, such as Splinter Cell, but games in that category should be developed for PC first, or be completely readjusted for each console rather than just ported from the crappiest of them.

    Another side effect of this is you lose some of the great features that console games CAN'T have, such as community modding/mapmaking, in many cases even dedicated servers, higher player counts, etc. So much of what I love about PC gaming has to do with community-generated content, it's ridiculous.


    TL;DR:
    Certain games have their place on PC, and certain games have their place on console. A few have places on both, but this isn't one of them.
