Like many of you did previously I also want to thank UWE for giving me a game that is really enjoyable and that I want to play over and over again. Also, because I'm a new player, I have to say that overall this is clearly one of the best communities I found over my 20 years gaming.
I found a bunch of players that helped me, game me tactics and talked and played as a squad over comms with a bunch of great players.
So thank you UWE and thank you to everyone that believed in this title. I'm just guilty of not believing in it sooner.
Are you ill?? A second copy? Thanks for that. I think it has been a great journey so far, your company is one of the most sympathic companies I know. Thanks for the engine, the art, the game-play and the really open approach on development. Couldn't be better.
This is all great news. #5 in the top sellers is amazing. Now everybody go tell everybody so we can get it to the #1 that UWE deserves.
Two small things I noticed on the steam page:
"You’ll get all our tools (level editor, cinematic tool and more) as well as the full LUA source code to Natural Selection 2." The language is Lua, Not LUA.
"Aliens build upgrade chambers, evolve special abilities and plant traps." What traps do the aliens get?

I still see The Darkness 2 in NS2's place when I refresh sometimes, kinda odd. Maybe it's region based? I don't see Dark Souls at all in my top sellers list.
Could you not just let us switch between the NS2 Special Edition Armor (Black Armor) and the Deluxe Armor, but between all three types of armor? (Regular, special and deluxe)
Awesome! :) But how do we "update" to the Deluxe edition and redeem the free copy?
When I got to the game page @ Steam Store it says I already have the game and if I click on the BUY link, I get an error. Will the update be made automatically?
Congrats to Charlie and team! I don't have much time to follow NS2 anymore so I love getting the email announcements about these big things. Looking forward to the final release!

That's unheard of in the gaming world, especially for an indie developer, a crazy marketing strategy, and quite possibly the most brilliant thing I've ever seen. That or just really freaking crazy.
I can honestly not wait for the actual launch, after seeing all the game has gone through to get to where it's at, I can't even describe what it's like to finally see it launching. I can't possibly imagine what the dev team feels right now.
And to everyone that's ever worked on the game, everyone that's pre-ordered, everyone that has ever even played NS1. Thank you. Starting to sound like I'm the one releasing the game now so I'll stop here.
Actually no, a few more things: lork on teh clorft, yo comm shotgun pls, it hovars without flapping, and "or bob!". I'm positive I missed a bunch of others.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yes, The YCSP (Yo Comm Shotun please) people are still around. I know of at least 4 of them that are back into playing NS2. I am one of the old school versions of YCSP and I hope we can get most of the old school NS1 players back to this great game.
Congrats UWE, I joined this beta around build 160 and have seen all the waves of development from lows to highs. This is now your crowning achievment.

PS: YCSP was on the server "Scott's House of Alien Rampage" OH, back in the glory days!!!!

The artbook will be in PDF format.

I still urge you to add some feature to the server browser (filter out empties, by ping , a fave list would be awesome, re-try options to join ).
I was happy with my purchase of the SE long ago, but thank you for the extra goodies... it is appreciated.
Good luck with the sales and the launch, and may the gods of metacritic look kindly on your offerings.

I assume it appears as a steam gift.

Now get to work, stuff has to be done!

What traps do the aliens get?

It will be a gift in your Steam inventory.

Congratulations. Well done. Thank you.
Hydras and hopefully webs.

o yeah. we totally got caught up in the exo nonsense and now Steam. so whats the status on babblers?
Have to think of someone to give my extra copy to.
But how do we "update" to the Deluxe edition and redeem the free copy?
When I got to the game page @ Steam Store it says I already have the game and if I click on the BUY link, I get an error. Will the update be made automatically?
That would be really cool if they did have beta access so our buddies can get started right away :)
