    Do you have any idea how many times this has been brought up?

    The devs:
    1) are AIMING for a summer release.
    2) will release Natural Selection WHEN IT'S DONE.

    So *please* just let them work.

    but, you have to understand those who haven't ever worked on a mod don't know how much work it actually is and how hard it is <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo-->

    Just hold in there, Jeb. I know this post was more of a "reality check" message rather than a "Come on! Where's my game!!" type of post... but it's still kinda frustrating being constantly reminded that time is running short by the eager fans. These guys are going through a tremendous amount of work right now. Tremendous. They're honestly giving it all they've got to reach a summer release. It might not end up that way, but the effort I see put into this is really just incredible. You're in good hands with these guys. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    <b>coil's guide to why making Natural Selection is really hard:</b>

    1) Start with Half-life.
    2) Make HL look like Unreal Tournament.
    3) Make UT-looking HL run on a 3-year-old machine.
    4) Turn Halflife into Starcraft.
    5) *Keep* the Halflife part of Halflife for all but one player.  Make that one player play Starcraft.
    6) Make sure that UT-looking, SC-playing HL still plays on a 3-year-old machine.
    7) Create models, maps, and animations that make currently in-production games look like cr@p.
    8) Create and balance two totally unique teams.

    Do all this while paying bills and appeasing a rabid fanbase.  (:
