Haha I *know* why 3.0 isn't out yet... hits! I can smell all those thousands of hits this website is getting every day as eager NS fans visit the site at least 5 times. This website will be in the top 100 of 2003!
Have a Great New Year all

Just curiosu about one thing in the current build. Did all they do is just give Onos a load of Armor and Health or did they tweak the amount of damage it's armor absorbs? When they were talking about fixing the Onos I was thinking that they'd increase it's damage absorbtion over a whole load of HP. Just a curious question is all.
OK, Im only going to say this: The Devs have LIVES, they have JOBS. They cannot, and SHOULD not devote every waking moment of their days working on a Mod for a community of people who are, for the most part, completely unappreciative. If you appreciated their hard work you would say "Hmm, Its currently in Beta stage, If It hasnt been released, that must mean its not ready" and then go and shoot yourself, or swallow an entire bottle of Aspirin, or SOMETHING, like hmm.. Donate some money, or do something useful. What you WOULDNT do, Is continuously nag the dev team for a Public Beta or an early release. You already know it wont happen, WHY do you persist in asking for it. By doing so, youre only wasting everyone's bandwidth. So, I thank all those who actually are waiting patiently, If everyone was like that, My post here would be unneccisary. However, for those of you who still feel the need to nag everyone about a release date, I advise you to just save everyone the aggrievation, and go eat the fender of a speeding Chrysler.
Frost, the Armor itself was increased to compensate for the fixed hitboxes.
i heard from alittle first hand "source" that NS MIGHT be released tonite or tomm (new years eve or new yrs day), note the key word is "might", so dont get your hopes up

I haven't read all the thread but this is the grand unvailing of NS as it will be out on Steam. They want it perfect for all those new players. Even if it isn't perfect, atleast playable, which from what I have read it isn't at all.
I'm cool with this, but please do us a small favour (and this goes for all vets/PTs/SUPARMEN with the sexappeal that comes with NS3's beta): Don't say "When it's done" is the release date. It brings me cold flashes and images of Duke Nukem Forever, which, after nearly 8, maybe 10 years, is still in development, also with a release of "When It's Done".
The dev team wants 3.0 to be the absolute best it can be - hence the delays. Trust me, when 3.0 comes out, you will <i>not</i> care that it took a while to get.

Good Job CWAG, now they will never know the real truth about why its not out... "To make Money for Flayra"
More and more ppl are growing impatiant and are joining the Constellation just to get to play 3.0 as a PT. The longer non CMs wait the more they want to play 3.0 and the sooner they join the ranks of the CM.
Soon The Community will be ruled by CMs and we will run the show, while Flayra sits back in his chair made of 50's and smokes fat cubans and drinks 300 dollar rye!
HAHAHAHAHA

The bump is just a secondary effect of this post ^-^
