Last Day Of 1.04?

Sandrock · July 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">Lets enjoy it</div> NS2.0 is being released thursday. The server version is being released tomorrow. Everyone knows NS2.0 is gonna be big, so I'm guessing the majority of servers will be busy updating tomorrow. That means that today is possibly the last day of 1.04 we'll ever see. So quit reading and go enjoy 1.04 while you can! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

So very true...

Lets all pay our respects to a great version, even if it was a bit flawed. Cause we all still loved it.
I will remember the first time I saw an Onos and that I nearly wet myself. I remember the first time I ate a marine. I will remeber the old 1.0 build patters and turret farms and seige farms.

I will remember the HA feeling of security and the feeling of owning with spikes and heal spray.
Ah.... what a great game, and only to get better.

I thought NS 2.0 comes out on the 31st.... according to the main www.natural-selection.org website...

Hmm, the death throes of 1.04 have been a bit painful today. On ns_nothing we aliens were feeling quite please with ourselves; the marines had grabbed power silo but we had viaduct nicely defended and building up. Then a bunch of jetpackers came in a cleared us out. We had red room done as well. Two hours later we're sitting at cargo with our last hive under assult and about 3 of us just say the same thing at the same time: "If this was 2.0, we could have gone onos ages ago". And we could have. We controlled most of the map and the resource points: we just couldn't use it.

Viva 2.0!

NS 2.0 server version is INCOMPATIBLE with NS 1.04 client version, and tomorrow all the best NS servers will change to 2.0 <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

BTW, i'll never forget the first time i played NS 1.00...lol! i went gorge and tried to build res towers anywhere, but i couldn't, and i was saying WTH??? I HAVE 33 RES AND IM GORGE AND I CANT DO RES TOWERS!!!111, minutes later i learnt that RT had their specific emplacement...i was lucky, cos i was tired of trying it and i tried to build a RT on top of an "ugly artifact that emits white fog" ....and the RT appeared!! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

MrPink · July 2003

I'm guessing that the servers will download the files tomorow but won't update until late tomorow night, that would make more sense...so then tomorow would be the last day of 1.04 we have to enjoy (or endure <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'> )

eaglec · July 2003

Well I'm going to set up an empty 2.0 server password locked running along side our 1.04 and we'll switch them over when the time it right. I might leave a small 1.04 server running for those poor ppl who cant get 2.0 (modem users etc). Actually I think I'll start a poll on the server forums and ask the regulars!

Catpoker · July 2003

been trying to play 1.04, but man, after reading the beta fourm for a month...........

i stepped away from ns for about 6 weeks, and now i am coming back just to play 1.04 one last time

2.0 will blow my world away

That's odd, I just finished a similar game. We started in cargo, they relocated to silo and did a lightning-quick phase rush to take via. They built turrets, we took down the phase, they came back, we killed the tf, then everyone on our team was dead and they outspawned us, put sieges everywhere, and about 45 mins later their heavy rush worked (after a massive failed rush which must have set them back 300-400 res)

I hope every server just plays nonstop on nancy. Farewell nancy! Sniff....

PFCNublar · July 2003

*hugs my collection of custom skins/sprites*
"I might see some of you on the other side, some of you will never grow to see the light of 2.0...farewell"

Iced_Eagle · July 2003

im glad to get rid of 1.04 imo... i got so sick of it a few weeks ago and haven't played it since... here i come 1.04 all day!! *nostalgia*

Spazmatic · July 2003

Despite having stopped playing 1.04 quite a while ago, I'm tempted to go and play Nancy before it's gone forever. Poor Nancy, may you rest in peace.

Alcapwn · July 2003

Hehehe...i remeber the first time i started up ns 1.04.
It was the end of school around 1 1/2 montsh ago...raining out and i was bored of the typical CS and DOD so i started searching for mods.

"Natural-Selection? Weird name.....but it has multiplayer so i'll try out...."

I just had discovered the greastest mod for half-life (IMO)

i remeber the first time i commed a game, it was eclispe and i was learning on the fly, so we got slautered. =x <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

Infected_Marine · July 2003

Why does nancy have to go? Can't we still play it in 2.0? It may not be bundled with the release, but that shouldn't stop any one.

severijn · July 2003

Why does nancy has to go?
Why?
It was the very first map I played marine and alien in, so, why?
It was also the first map I commed in.

I truly hope it will come back in 2. ... ... just as de_nuke came back.
*snif*

fo_sheezy_my_neezy · July 2003

dangit, too bad I have to work all day today and tomorrow. I'll probably be on alot tonight though. I don't understand it, I think that a good alien team can beat a good marine team any day, as I do it every day. I can't believe how everyone says they've stopped playing. If I stop playing, it's usually for like a day or two at most. Then I realize how much better NS is than any other game I've ever played. Farewell 1.04, you will be sorely missed. This doesn't mean I'm not looking forward to 2.0, it's just that I'm loosing a very good friend. I've played 271 days now (OCT 31st, I'm pretty sure that was Haloween, right), every day, if even for 15-20 minutes. I could never forget my good friend 1.0x........

Cheez1 · July 2003

Apparently ns_nancy has issues with onos? I don't really remeber the reason...

Too bad, it's one of the only ns maps with references to the "Aliens" movie series <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

Gotta love that "Mother interface"! Lol.

(Yes i understand how wrong that sounded. Mother is the name of a computer you dirty people!)

Catpoker · July 2003

played my very last 1.04 EVER!!!

ns_nothing on cofr

MAN do jp suck!

Firedragon · July 2003

Actually it isn't the last day for 1.04 assuming all of you backedup,saved the original NS_Client install file,I have So you guys maybe able to switch between the 2 versions.

A question of mine is is NS 2.0 a whole new game? or is an update patch that will overwrite the first version? so I can either play 1.04 or 2.0?

Can't you decompile nancy to get the source? or will it be full of errors,or unless the guy who made the map decided to remake it start over then back it up on a cd etc.

Nancy has problems with Oni, and can't be recompiled since the source is gone. I trust that, if there was/is a way, the dev team would know (I'm not a mapper).

I've been beta testing for like 3 months and you can switch between 1.04 and 2.0. All you do is rename your ns folder to 'ns14' then install normally. So that sortof answers your question that NS 2.0 is NOT a "patch" but it overwriters everything and is a clean install. This is true for beta. However I know that they are working on the installer right now and some details can't be answered by anyone but the Devs. So I hope this helps.

Roobs, COFR, EC nano, Sleepless... Servers should all have a "Farwell to nancy" day, and make it 24 hours of nancy! It will be the last time we will ever play that map... *wipes tears*

Deathryuu · July 2003

nancy must go because the devs had a hd crash(power failure or something), and they hadn't saved the ns_nancy source file(with the new 2.0 changes).

JediYoshi · July 2003

Where'd you hear that? I thought it was just because they couldn't contact DevilDog.

Animosity · July 2003

last day of 1.04 <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'> time to jetpack , silent bhop and rush you all to hell , for old times sakes.

DFA_Haplo · July 2003

Our server is gonna try and keep ns_nancy running in 2.0. The issues I read about delt with the oni getting stuck. Now unless they changed the onos' hull we should still beable to play nancy like we do now. And hopefully that handy little unstuck pro plugin will still work.

If not then I guess its 'asta la vista baby'.

Last Day Of 1.04?
