<div class="IPBDescription">?</div> Are there any model changes in 2.0 besides the GL and the Skulk model (running on walls adaption).
I know there LMG was made smaller cause the flash and model was too big. And it seems the HMG is at a slightly different angle.
I think 2.0 was more of bug fixes and a few gameplay enhancements. I was expecting more different models, guns, researches.
The lowering the cost of weapons and upgrades could of easily been done in a small 1.06 patch.
I wanted a bigger release, think about it. It took the NS team 5 months to come up with 2.0. All the features are good and all but there could of been more.
I also know that the dev. team has to deal with home issues and work issues and at the same time make a mod. If thats a problem, maybe they should'nt be making such a large commiment?
NS is an awsome mod, the best 1.0 I have ever seen. But 2.0 should of doubled the fun and action. 2.0 seems like a 1.1 to me.
2.0 should of contained new models for buildings (both aliens and marines)
New models for the Marines and Aliens.
Also more animations (besides the skulk and GL reload)
I have no doubt 2.0 is a great release adding on to a great game. 5 months is way to long to come up with so little improvements.
This is all my opinion.
I know I will get flame for this, but I dont care.

Good on ya buddy!

It would take AT LEAST a year to change the crosshairs.

I'd just like to say well done for being the least grateful member of the boards.
"Only 5 months" Geez, Flayra's spent 3 years working full time on this for NO pay and you're whining that he, and the rest of the team, aren't giving you enough.
Christ dude, be grateful they're spending their free time working hard for nothing but our gain.
(Also, a little off topic but: For the final 2.0, did they leave in or take out hive requirments? I can't remember.)
Dude, this version of NS has been worked on for months now. There have been like 30 builds, and about a billion changes made to the game. This is not just some "little patch" its a completely and fundamentally reworked version of natural selection. Sorry, but models dont make a game. If you're looking for enhanced models in patches, then go play counter-strike. The dev team should be commended for tweaking NS the way that they did. Not reatarded posts like "not as big as we thought because they didnt change weapon models" lol
I've been watching the builds since 1.1a and watched all of the changes that they implemented. I've been watching those change logs every day and checking out what ideas were scratched and which ones were kept. I've voted on everything flayra asked the community about. And here comes mr nub hudson "I want models and new animations, this is a small patch". Come on man, pay ATTENTION! There is a reason they renamed it to NS 2.0...ugh, people
It took the team TOO long to create 2.0 in 5 months.
Im sorry but Im not a brown nose.
NS needs critisism for their future versions to be better.
If everyone would always say
"wow this mod rocks! No improvements needed"
Than the mod would never get better.
and on a side note... you can download new models if you wish to

ahahahahah!!
you obviously have NO idea how time consuming it is to make a mod. EACH model can easily take a month, as for maps you get five, the average time for a map to be built is a month. usually more.
[sarcastic mode] BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, it doesn't justify 5 months since the first release of NS, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO [/sm]
p.d: faggot
Dude have u ever made a mod like NS??
Do u know how much effort was put in for a service u receive for free??
Do u even bother to read all the effort that was put in via the beta forums??
Have u even seen an up to date changelog?? And i not talking about the crappy one on the front home page.
Get some sort of reasoning or credibility and perhaps u mite get a better response.

Seriously, you need that flame suit.
We're not brown nosing, we just realise the massive amounts of hard work and effort put into the game that you, quite obviously, have missed.
The maps, among other things, should be at least 6 months worth of hard work, and there's been 4 new ones implemented. 5 months too long my arse dude.
NS does indeed need criticism, but you're not criticising the game, you're criticising the developers being lazy. And i'm positive that each and every one of them will assure you they're not.
Bug reports and feedback (both positive and negative) has been given since 1.0's release by the entire community and still continues to this very day. Try reading back a bit, you know nothing.

Please point me to something constructive you said...
You haven't even played 2.0, you also probably have no idea how much testing and balancing this game needs. Also, bare in mind that maps, models, programming, bug fixing and a lot kore do not just appear over night.
Actually... I can't even be bothered to argue... You are simply ungrateful... Go find a free mod better than NS and play that instead?
But 2.0 is not a graphics patch. It was never intended to be a graphics patch. You want different graphics? Visit the modeling forum. The rest of us will be happy with a better balanced game. We'll leave you to sulk in the corner, whining for eye candy from your mommy and daddy.
