Amist all the whining, all the complaining, and all the dev bashing, I would like to put in this side note.
Regardless of my feelings on this new release, I want to say thank you to the dev team. It's not everyday you can download a mod, and see it worked on, improved, and developed to the extent that NS has in the past years. The improvements and work done since version 1 are more than incredible--and for ANY group of people to maintain such a thing for free, that tells me that the people working on this mod are dedicated to their work, take pride in it, and want to futher their own abilities working on something such as this.
So props to you guys, I don't care what all the flamers, and complainers have to say. You guys deserve more credit than people in this community are willing to give.

Having played since v1, I think that quote is deliciously accurate.
I mean, you've created a game - one that I've played more than <b>any other game</b>, and this one is <b>free</b>. You've created a game that's better than any other - plus it's a free mod. I doubt anyone can beat that.
You've kept me hooked for the past year and more, hope that's the way it'll stay in the future.

Same, except I've been hooked for more than two years so far.
a) We want to,
b) We are able to (where other people for all their claims to know better) blatantly can't/won't
When team members log on to the forums and see nothing but unending abuse and derision, with occasional fawning for Flayra, they get demotivated. Why do you think that almost all of the original team no longer work on the game? Hell, I only ended up being PT lead (twice) because it's such a ***** job that no one else in their right mind would do it.
seems that i have to say it again: I love the current build <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
But that doesn't mean the game is perfect, there is always room for improvement (cough removing focus cough)
<3 the game and dev team though
and even to those that dont like ns, no one can deny the fact that NS has done more with the hl engine than any other mod, or even the offical games for that matter.
Didnt valve pretty much laugh at flayra when he wanted to make ns, they said it would be impossible to make the commanders view or something like that?

Its amazing, here i am thinking when are valve going to pick NS up. NS is simply the best, most complete mod out there. Just for comparisons sake as a multiplayer mod it destroys CS in almost every way. The depth of gameplay, *true* team work, detail, Combat...its truly brilliant what you guys have done!
If there is a mod worthy of going retail its NS.

true yet irrelevant at this point
It's the most unique HL mod to date, and personally, theres none that live up to it.
Port NS2 to MacOSX... or sell licence to make it a reality on other OSes like Linux AmigaOS4, BeOS... and my soul is yours :-)
Keep up the good work.
RO><0R!
Now they add on the ceiling,on the wall,cloaked at your feet,cloaked behind you,cloaked anywhere near you,there's a fade....AND NOW IT JUMPED AT ME AAARRGHHH,its underneath/above your floor,its hiding on the lift sumwhere.
Oh,and the ability to skulk is very good too. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
And being better than Counter-S**t is always a good thing.
NS FTW.
Once again, I love you Dev team.
Oh, and you too Charlie hehe
