And congratulations to anyone else who Flayra takes into UWE, because I will buy every single thing that gets published, like Blizzard, and I will always frequent your forums/IRC chan, because you guys know how to make a game!
Cool name, purdy logo, skilled coders, good game design ability; looks like we have a winner <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Flayra: like Infantry before, I'll allways be right behind you. So you've got at least one longtime fan unless you do somthing, say, at the level of planetside stupid or SWG stupid.

Good luck with this Flayra and co.

I will be willling to pay cash for ns on an newer engine (hell I would pay cash for ns on this engine!)
Yeah, I noticed it on the front page and I came in here to see if anybody else had - <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com' target='_blank'>http://www.unknownworlds.com</a> also routes to natsel.org!
Madness. Google doesn't know from my end either, so I doubt it's been sold. I think Flayra's just entering the world of self enterprise <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
Beware the publishers, for they will be the doom of us all. Hopefully Flay's reputation with NS and the success of HL and (probably) HL2 despite delays and continued overcomings of the publishers demands can show that a game could be profitable despite actually spending the time and money to actually complete the game (gasp!).

Fantastic <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> This is an awsome step for NS and its team <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Now, if you Bankrupt EA, buy out Infogrames and team up with Relic, we may get some strat games to rival Blizzards stranglehold on the genre.
Blizzards good and all but they need some solid competition to keep them fresh and top notch...
You can't go for a wee christmas break and companies start up left and right. What is the Unknown World coming to? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Is the image supposed to be the Ariadne Arm?

NS is still gonna remain free, and after the UWE is totally formed and is in motion, NS will still remain free.
However there is one thing bothering me....PUBLISHERS!!!
NO, dont say that word!
