<!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo--> I updated my half-life server list and i saw a gametype natural-selection. the map was ns_nancy and had 0/30 players! Since no one is in this must be a dedicated server! It didnt have a password but i guess since the game isnt publically available that's good enough security!  Was this a playtest server?

    Underworld Natural Selection Server, if i'm not mistaken.  One of the better servers, and we have the [FoR] crew to thank for that! <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    small note: even if you tried to join with the pass your HL would either A: freeze and die from not having the mod or B: tell you to go update/dl the mod.

    You need to chill out, the game will be out soon enough, and the team is working hard at it.  And if everyone was a playtester then what is the fun of acutally releasing the game  <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->  haha good day!

    I just took 10 mins and found another server all it said was: Natuarl Selection   ns_bast   0/30


    I know it was a playtester server but it was real! Oh god I just saw a ns server! <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    I can't wait until the time I can filter everything BUT natural selection.

    Good searching there!  Yes, hopefully soon there will be many NS servers which one can join.  The other found server is most likely the BS one, or it could be the Linux one that was up for some time a few days back.

    If you just search on gametiger you can find 3 NS servers.  Here's the links although there only seems to be one server there at the moment:

    I remember checking once, I hit See Info I think and I got to see some scores.

    It is easy to tell is not a Marine becaue they have numbers for frags and Marine's just have a 0.

    One time I saw that Humbaba had 68 frags. <!--emo&:0--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'><!--endemo-->

    And the lord said...

    Thou hast waited long enough for the release of thy mod, and thy hast been patient.

    Ant the lord did reach out, and with the knowledge of a thousand geeks, teh lord did remove all thy bugs, and fix all thy balance issues.

    And Flayra said, praise be to the faithful, and the glory of NS was bestowed upon them....

    For the record, "frags" is a rather inaccurate number.  Cyanide and I were both builders in that game (I believe), and got one point for every structure we built.  Since we were the only builders for most of the game, we racked 'em up pretty good.  (:

    I try not to laugh at all those silly people who think they have to *kill* things to get points.  <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    This is very likely NOT the last playtest, as there was a complete overhaul of the resource gathering system this last build.

    But that's where you're wrong GobyWan, when the forums were down last there was a message saying that RC7 (The current one) was the last NS PT.

    WOO!

    Specifically, what they said was "this last RC," meaning "this most recent RC."  However, I stand by a release date of "sooner than you think."

    I love watching mod devs and PTs say things like "Sooner than you think". If I think it will be out tommorow will it be released today? <!--emo&???--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->
