    Sorry to say so, but it's pretty hard to keep my interest peaked after that.

    This is unfortunately true. I'll check back in two years or so.

    What's "SimAnt"?

    Edit: It does look interesting, though. I do hope they finish it.. methinks a lot of HL2 mods will go under before it comes out <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Let's say this game was heavily inspired by NS....

    <!--QuoteBegin-About Insects Infestation+--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (About Insects Infestation)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->About Insects Infestation
    Insects Infestation is a brand new and original mod for HL2. The basics of II are very simple, you choose between the 3 species of insects wich include: Ants, Termites and Wasps. Then you choose from 2 main classes wich enventualy evolves into 6 very distinct classes. Every class has its own set of unique weapons and powers.
    II is at its core a RTSFPS (Real Time Strategy First Person Shooter) wich ans that it blends the two genres to make one very unique experience. You start the match next to your nest/ant hill/termite hill and you must work as a team to build your colony's defensive and offensive structures wich in theyr turn will make it possible for you and your teamates to evolve into stronger and faster insects.

    The main concept is not new but the gamplay you will experience, will be.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Attack's enemies with his very powerfull front jaws
    Has the special 'Rush' ability wich ables him to ram other insects

    400 Health Points
    200 Carapace Armor<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Not saying it's a rip, just heavily inspired, expecially the Ram ability XD

    <i>Give the Termite Heavy Soldier devour!</i>

    EDIT : Beating a dead horse with a stick is good for one-timers.

    OH NOES! It has VENUZ FLYTRAPS AND VINES THAT ATTACK WHEN UR LOOKEN THE OTHER WAY!!!111oneoneelevenexclamation
