Oldest Known Screenshots Of "ns"

Mintman

It's an aug not a para, the scope gives it away. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->x I'm showing my CS roots again. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> *hides them*

It would be interesting to know how all you guys (Developers, PTs, Moderators) got together...

Thanks Flayra, these look really neat. I'd love to see more <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

i think lmg is more powerfull than the para =)
(god i really dislike cs nowadays)

Paladin

Wow , thanks a lot.
Perhaps you could post some screens of each RC you had during the pre-beta 1 stage.
Or even that little movie which showed some of the key features of NS , you know , the one encoded in divX , without sound and showing the right click menu as well as some shots of the commander mode .
I think that would be nice.
And while i look at these screens i'm really looking forward of what Ns will "evolve" into in Beta 2 (perhaps on HL2 <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> ).

*EDIT* And how about getting the AK back as the GL in Beta 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-->

Wow. I must say, NS has come a very long way since then. I do want to say, I LOVE that "Old Ns site intro" Flash movie.. I think it's great. Maybe update it with current game sounds, and I think it'd be perfect as an advertisement banner/site intro. hehe..

Amped1

Tsk, that is obviously the SAW from Opposing Force. Did no one play it?

NSCypher

Yeah I played Opposing Force - for the whole hour it took to finish. Quite possibly one of the easiest end-game bosses I have ever seen, especially as you can run off to get all your health back at any time. The Para was a great gun tho (yes I do mean the SAW, they are the same gun), and the multiplayer gets funny with sniper rifles and teleporter weapons.

lol at the screenshots tho, I think they actually look quite cool!

Much further into making a mod that I have any hope of ever getting <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->, I know f*** all about programming...

no way, the sounds in that intro are awesome, i'd really like to use them for the movie, but i couldn't find them anywhere... <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Its the para, there is no disputing it, its too big to be an Aug, and its too rigid to be the OP4 SAW.
If you are still really jonesing for some oldsch00l NS goodness there is always NSTR. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

how come u scraped the geustures idea, be so much better than saying "Follow me" and lead your team into a bunch of waiting aliens.

Ohhh, Come on flay, got any more?

Well, think of it this way: Have you ever used the gestures in DOD? I rest my case.

Shadowics

In that screenshot where he's holding a weapon, it isn't a weapon from another game, it's a weapon model for NS that didn't make it into 1.0. Just look at this:

Left: cut of the old screenshot of the weapon - Right: Blurred 'unknown' weapon screenshot for 1.1 (from www.readyroom.org)

SillyGoose

Good observation Shadowics I would have never caught that.

Comprox

Those aren't the same weapons, I am 100% sure of that, just by looking at them, and also having a slight idea of what the new weapon is anyways <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

LambdaProject

Its the para from CS I'm so sure of it (although its left handed). NS was based on CS, right? Or at least it started off that way. There is a bunch CS stuff floating around all over the ns directory. I wonder why it was based on CS in the first place.

(Also a little bug/ easter egg: If you've ever had babblers out look down at the bottom right and you'll see the C4 Icon from CS. Pretty weird)

Pulse

Besides that, NS used CS models in the beginning from what I can remember.

Mjr_Beatings

That's clearly the Para, it has the little handle type part, the circle aiming thing on the front:

I was just wondering: What ever happened to medium armor? I'd go on about how it might work, but then I'd have to go to the S&I forums. Which I shall never do again <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

Pulse

What I want to know is what happened to <i>power armour</i>, was it overpowered (heh) or something?

James_H4xwell

Ugh it is obviously the para... you all are forgetting the biggest thing... the ugly, ugly, ugly sight on the gun. *shivers* i hate that sight.

The aren't exactly the same, that was a very early screenshot after all and the weapon models have surely changed some, after all the weapon wasn't released in 1.0, so they must have made some changes for the 1.1 version.

The little circle thing and the little handle are basically all that you can make out of the black screenshot. It could just as easily be the weapon that was blurred on Readyroom.org as it could be the 'Para'.


P.S. - I've never played CS

Macguyvok

Hey, who's to say that MonsE's screen shot isn't a "NS-ified version of the 'para', and isn't even in 1.1? He IS Mr. Evil, after all. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> (I think that The ss of flays is the para, but that one of MonsE's definitely has 'para' influence written all over it, don't you agree?)

Mike (Bathroom Monkey), who does all weaponmodels, wasn't in the team at that point if I'm not mistaken. So, sorry, but your theory doesn't hold water <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
