<div class="IPBDescription">Comments and questions.</div> Hello there. It was only by sheer luck that someone posted the link in an MIRC chat that I found this mod. Though I cant run it very smoothly, Seeing as Im running on a lowly 250mhz M Cyrix II, I do manage to get a game or two with the bots.

About the bots: Good work, though they almost always get stuck in corners (I was playing this starship map <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->) Though the Alien didnt have any trouble barricading us in with offensive towers.

I cant seem to play unless I use the start menu shortcut. Might want to fix that sometime.

About the mod: First I'd like to say its probably going to the succesor to CS, if not further. Its awesome. Incorperating FPS into RTS is something I have wanted to see for a long time. And this mod does it in such a manipulatable waythat I'll be playing this for a long time, despite my rather slow (about 2 fps) playability. First off I'd like to know if there are any servers where I can obs games (I do that alot for CS because it lags too much for me to play with people.)

A question: Why did you use starcraft zerg sounds? Though I dont really mind, I know of a few other places to get better ones. I can also voice act creatures or such, I am quite good (I can send examples from my own Starcraft mods, Being Scorpycraft and ScorpyCraft:Infantry Gunner.

Yes, this mod gives me the realistc feeling, more then CS ever could. I'd like to say once again a splendid job.

Now, about improving FPS: I read a thread on it, and due to the fact I have no DOS experience whatsoever (I dont know the first thing to do with a dos prompt) I'll ask: Can you do those in the console?

    i say, upgrade, you can get a good computer quite cheap, especially to play halflife.

    Upgrade. The same money that got you your current computer when it was new will buy you a great computer for playing HL on.

    Oi if only you knew my current plight... I am as poor as they get, and in my current location (Canada, BC) I cannot get a job worth squat. Though I did manage to get semi-livable FPS, but the rate gets killed again after I leave command seat to finish construction. bug?

    Wow, sounds like you're having tough times buddy <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
    I don't even want to think about how long it took to download this mod to play.
    You have my utmost sympathy, hope things turn out better soon
