    Lets get more on topic now shall we?

    It's all very well being able to make a nice looking NS atmosphere in Doom 3, but is it fully playable with the current scale of NS players? The answer is no. Doom 3 is not the way to go, graphically it looks great but performs appallingly.

    Really? Care to cite your source on that?

    <b>Q</b>: Will you port this game to the Source or another engine?
    <b>A</b>: There're multiple things to say on this, because some issues are easily mixed up here:
    <ul>
    </li><li> As Flayra affirmed in multiple interviews, he is planning on creating a retail sequel to NS that'll be developed by his new company, Unknown Worlds Entertainment. This sequel will naturally use a more recent engine, although it is not clear which. Note that NS2 is only one of the concepts offered to possible investors, so it's not guaranteed to be UWE's first product.
    </li><li> Multiple members of the mod's devteam have expressed interest in updating NS(1) to a newer engine, possibly Source. Interest.
    </li><li> So far, there has been no publicised decision on the issue of whether and if so, which port is to be made. Nor can such a decision be expected until work on the current version of NS has been finished, or until the team had an opportunity to get a good idea of how much work would be involved in such a port.
    </li></ul>
    So, in case you feel as though you've just read a hugely bloated 'No comment.', you are correct wink-fix.gif

    So, as you can see, there's nothing definite about it. I certainly do think it's open to speculation.

    The voice inside my head wants to reaffirm his 50-50 status.. He also said he prefer Coke over Pepsi.. I myself am a pepsi person but he makes me drink coke..

    Without the fancy shadows, I could make that on the Half-life engine.

    Hey, here's a better idea.

    Since the issue is unresolved and undecided and arguably far far beyond discussion in the mapping forum, how about if you guys quit arguing over which engine you think we're going to use or which engine you think we should use?

    I am veryyyy tempted to call this thread out-of-place and lock it, since it has nothing to do with Natural Selection Mapping (which would take place in Valve Hammer Editor or a similar HL1 engine map creation tool.)

    Discussion of future engines and associated technology and\or viability for NS ports is pointless speculation and really doesn't belong here. Go away!
