<div class="IPBDescription">not asking what it is...</div> i was thinking, BUS stands for Big Unannounced System. what is it once it gets announced?

i think it should be changed to BAS. im sure you can guess what the A stands for.
what is everyone elses thoughts on the matter?

    BAS? Big Assed System? I think Big Anounced System would be a better name.

    no not big assed, big ****. big assed makes it sound like it has a huge ****. i dont think big announced system will do much justice if it is good.

    Because they haven't actually anounced what the purpose of the BUS is. Hence the BUS.

    When they start spilling info, <b>THEN</b> we call it BAS.

    My guess for what BUS will be is, NS will go commercial.

    From that interview Flayra did, it sounds like they're working hard to finish polishing up NS so it will "appeal to a larger audience" and so they can move on to other projects. And how will they fund these new projects? From sales of NS of course (ala TF and CS bundled with HalfLife).

    ...NS going commercial isn't a system. The fact that Cagey is working on it points more towards something to do with maps.

    Flayra announced that they would never attempt to take NS to retail, too may problems with Valve.


    I honestly hope I eat those words though, this game deserves more than any other to go to retail.
