<div class="IPBDescription">just wondering</div> I heard from people this game was based on the alien movies is this true.
p.s on a unrelated note why does every alien thing look like genitalia? why does the skulks poophole have a skull their? why is a onos poophole so blatant?

And why do you even check the "poohole" of aliens *disturbed*

on the note of poo holes, the onos is so big, it can take 20 rounds of a shotty and not do anything to it.

See aliens 1 + 2 and you will find a lot of textures, doors and hallways seen in ns (ns_bast and ns_nothing especially).
Most of the gameplay, ballancing, tactics and general ideas are based on Starcraft (umbra, cataclyst, cloaking).
it draws from aliens, and from starcraft [devour is one you forgot] and a whole bunch of crazy imagination from Flayra
as for the poopholes, I really just play the game instead of wondering <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Anyway, on the subject of gorge healspray, I always used to laugh when I saw that sprite.
Dog = Skulk
Pig = Gorge
Bats = Lerks
Human ( <span style='color:yellow'><b>!</b></span> ) = Fade
Rhinos/Hippo = Onos
Dog = Skulk
Pig = Gorge
Bats = Lerks
Human ( <span style='color:yellow'><b>!</b></span> ) = Fade
Rhinos/Hippo = Onos <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Fades remind me more of mantids than humans, just lacking the large abdomen :/

q2g > ns :>
Dog = Skulk

The funny thing about this is that I play in a Hong Kong Sever (Because I live in China of course)
And since Chinese people are not really good in Chinese, they give each creature chinese codenames which are related to the actual objects
Skulk=Dog
Gorge = Pig
Lerk= Bird
Fade= Muscle Man (Don't ask me how)
Onos=Cow Cow (the repeated Cow makes it sound cute)
So I was quite surprised that the codenames are closely true <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

as is the answer to everything else...
The game is based on NANITES!!! :-P
The Onos = ultralisk
The Lerk = mutalisk
The Skulk = zergling
The Gorge = that gorge-like reptile from original HL
