<div class="IPBDescription">just want your opinion</div> i just want to hear your opinions about it. my search doesn't work so i'll just pos this one.
personally, after i read all of the great advantages the aliens have, my morale has drained. maybe it happened with some other people too.
if it's really gonna be bad, 2 things:
1) flayra restores the mistakes
2) i'm just leaving

I am sure that the testers will test fairly for quality. It is not like them to make mistakes like that.
Cast your minds back o gamers, and recall a certain time when a RTS hit the market which became a massive hit. Of course, I'm referring to Command and Conquor.
Now cast your minds back not so far and recall the game which came out after a multi-year wait and had C&C fans worldwide slathering for. Yes, I speak of C&C: Tiberium Sun
because of the massive success of C&C, it's sequal just couldn't live up to the expectations that resulted. This is what concerns me about 1.1: too many people seem to think that it will fix everything. Of course, it may very well adress problems/concerns in NS right now. But I guareentee within a week of 1.1 being out ppl will be complaining about new "unbeatable strats" and "imbalances".
So I think that we should a) Not place so much emphasis on 1.1 as being the solution to all of life's problems and b) actually play the patch before passing judgement. Speculation about stuff that hasn't even been playtested yet is a little pointless, and really only serves as convesation fodder.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't discuss this stuff though and how it might change the game <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

There needs to be like a tutorial server on how to play NS or something. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

It will be a great improvement on 1.1. The specifics of that version number used is pretty important to understand - NS 1.1 is not designed to be a whole new version of NS. It's designed to massage it, to fix problems, to change some things, to add depth. It will have more new maps (perhaps more than the 3 mentioned on the post). Existing maps will run much faster and have gameplay improvements as well. A commander will now be less involved in fighting his interface and more involved in directing his troops. There will be things added that were supposed to be in 1.0 and the clock ran out. There will be nice visual improvements and eye-candy. There will be equipment and upgrade changes. The resource model will be altered - this is huge and that's not yet really understand I think by most fans. Many other things will happen that are more subtle, or not even listed in the changelog on the main page.
All of this combines to make 1.1 closer to the vision of what Flayra was hoping for with 1.0. When work begins on 2.0, you will see the truly massive alterations that everyone fears (incorrectly) about 1.1. From the plans I have seen, it's rather monumental in scope.
1.0 got people in. 1.1 will keep them, and get many more. 2.0 will leverage what everyone knows to become far closer to the true vision.
also i think it'll be very balanced cause flay loves us..and i want his babies D:
Natural selection blew my socks off when i first read about it. Ns rocked when i saw the first screens and i didnt leave the house when it was released. Now every update changes the entire style of play which can only be fun and interesting. I just dont get it why people ALWAYS complain on EVERY mod when its going to update. I cant wait to play 1.1 because its going to be new tactics and toys and thats fun. We havent even reached 2.0 yet and people are allready talking about the good old days.....These ARE the good old days.

NS will be the 2nd or even 1st greatest thing that has happened to me since Goldeneye 007!! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Ill probably celebrate with some Jimmy Buffet while playing on the day of NS 1.1 <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

You know why your search didn't find anything...
<b>Because people with an ounce of wisdom wouldn't form an opinion from purely speculation and a <i>rough and tentative</i> changelog.</b>
This thread really aggrevates me.

That does sound kind of funny coming from a guy who named himself after the Scumdogs of the Universe. I bet there aren't a whole lot of GWAR fans around. GWAR rules!
<b>Ridiculous edit:</b> GWAR is one of my all time favorites. I met Odorous back-stage once too.
Yeh man, totally. That last group of PTs were horrible - they should get you to PT since you have proven that you can construct constructive feedback by your awesome post. I hope you are the one making sure 1.1 is the best game it can be!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (and so on)
CS MENTIONED NO!! NO!!! DON'T MAKE ME GO BACK!!!! THIS IS MY ESCAPE FROM THE PAIN OF CS!
