    Wow this MOD is growing quickly and suprisingly. I own a lan store called Digital Xtreme, so I have played almost every game on the face of the earth, and I like what this mod has going for it..I dont know if any of the team has played or play FLF but I meant I guy on there that said he was part of this project, dont know if thats true or not...Lair or not thats how I first heard of your game.. If you any of the team did play you would have know me **obscenity** Type-R or ZeroArmy... Anyways I wanted to know if your were gonna have lan support as well, if anyone can answer that please do I think the people at the store would get kicks out of it..And as for anyone in the Pennsylvania area stop on by..We are right near King of Prussia and like 30 min outside of Philly. Our site is under construction but here is the url any way... www.digitalxtremeonline.com
    and if anyone stops in ask for Ryan..I will make sure to hook you guyz up ...


    Laters,
    Boys @ Digi-X

    I'm Justin Pereira, I've spent nearly my entire life using computers, and I've spent a large portion of that playing computer games. From commadore 20 games to trade wars to doom to the command & conquer series, half-life, counter-strike, and now Natural Selection, with others in between.

    I was born in Jacksonville Florida, and I've moved a few times and now I'm in Maryland, still on the East Coast USA.

    A friend of mine who's a huge HUGE counter-strike fan told me a little about NS after discovering it himself and convinced me to download the HL update and the mod itself, and reinstall half-life (quite a bit for a 56k modem). It was and still is the best thing that's ever come to half-life, and probably the best gaming experience I've had so far. Whether it's commanding a knowledgable group of marines or biting the heads off some, it's tons of fun.

    hello everyone,

    im a new NS player but have played HL, CS and many other half life mods for quite a while...

    I found this mod on Gamespy Arcade and thought to myself, 'well i dont remember seeing that HL area before, so I went to planet half life and started reading about this mod and i must say, im impressed.

    im downloading this mod at the moment 95% complete <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> as soon as its done im loggin into GSA to play this right away... i cant wait

    also its looks to me like this has a pretty good community, bit like how FA used to be... till it just got full up with llamas who just spammed the forums and made the games unbearable, hope it doesnt happen to this community

    once again, i hope i enjoy this mod.. (which i know i will do... walking on walls and cielings, gotta be a first ey?)

    thanks for creating this mod NS team, it must have taken a long time.. oh 100% complete <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hello all... Im new to NS... looking great so far. Im quite involved in mods. I started with FA, then DoD, then to CS (quit because of hackers), as well as many many many mods that i cant remember. I was really suprized i didnt hear about this mod till a few days ago by accident...

    Anyway i look forward to killing you/fighting with you.
  • AacheronAacheron Join Date: 2002-11-09 Member: 7890Members
    Oh, I seemed to miss this thread on the way in...


    Well, hello. I'm known as Aacheron, and I go by that name everywhere (for example Battle.net, EZ-boards, AvP 2, almost all other boards I go to, etc). So, if you see someone called Aacheron, usually ranting on some Warhammer 40.000 board, it's bound to be me.

    I've played (through) - among others - Half-Life, HL - OpFor, HL - Blue Shift, AvP, AvP II, Deus Ex, Giants, Tribes II, etc. I'm also a huge fan of RTS games, and here's a brief list: Age of Empires, AoE - Rise of Rome, C&C - Red Alert, StarCraft, SC - Brood War, Empire Earth, Dungeon Keeper 2, Emperor - Battle for Dune, etc. An oddity amongst my game experiences is Sacrifice - a game that combines a limited amount of FPS-bits with a whole host of RTS features.

    So you could say I know FPS and RTS games by heart...


    I'm relatively new to HL mods in general, though. NS seems to be a good game (though horribly bug-ridden). Oh, well... it's still a very new game, so bugs are to be expected.
  • IskatuMeskIskatuMesk Join Date: 2002-11-09 Member: 7893Members
    I didnt know this massive thread existed. Oh well. Now I do.


    Im formerly known as ICSW}__Lurker__ On Battle.net, KazzMalkor or IskatuMesk on random forums, and thats about it. Someone mentioned NS's website in an IRC chat and it was by luck I clicked on it out of curiousity.


    Im from Canada >:\ Sadly enough. If this was the USA I would have a new computer a job and everything. Until I can somehow smuggle myself into there, Im stuck with being poor. Know that I cant play well because of the extreme lag (usually 1 fps or lower) NS tends to cause after construction of buildings (They must be MASSIVE Poly.) So dont expect to see me playing on any servers.

  • StoneburgStoneburg Join Date: 2002-11-11 Member: 8174Members
    I'm Stoneburg and I will readily admit that I didn't read this whole thread, maybe I will in the future.

    Love this game, it's almost made me kick my CS habit. Oh, and I'm in CoFR, a community for "mature" gamers (we aren't really, at least not in private <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->), so I will be busy spamming our forums with NS propaganda. Not that it's needed, everyone seems to love this game <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hi all! Im Kodie, aka Pope Dragunov (Teams [Limitless], [=^.^=], and =NDF=) from the FireArms mod. I heard about this maybe 3 weeks ago during a nice little match. And, it seemed to me like a neat little cross between AvP and Starcraft, so I felt like its time to play <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

  • WarpZoneWarpZone Join Date: 2002-11-03 Member: 6264Members
    Hello. My name's WarpZone, and I am the antithesis of a mad leet gamer. I own Half-Life, yes, but vanilla deathmatch bores the crap outta me. I was able to tolerate TFC a little bit, and then I really got into SvenCoop, and now NS has pried me away from that mod. NS is great fun, when you find a server with no **obscenity** playing.

    I have that creative bug, and I like to start making maps. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> I also type way more than I need to, both in-game and on forums.

    Favorite moment: I dove into a room full of turrets on NS_HERA and started circling all around, trying to find a nice niche to eat the factory from, or failing that, at least distract the marine in the room and do a little damage to various structures before I died. After about a solid minute of my squirming, he manages to finish off my last 3 hit points. Me: "Nice shot." Him: "It's called skill, and I'm made of it!" Fellow alien: "[team] Lol this guy is hillarious."

    Hey all. I am new to this forum (brand-spanking new!) and the greatest thing happened last night that I want to share with everyone... I downloaded Natural Selection. HOLY BANTHA POODOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I downloaded it at 7:00 pm and the next time i looked at the clock it was 11:45 PM and I didn't know Where or WHO I was!!! This game is awesome, as all of you at these forums know. I played with some really great people too. It was nice to see a good, solid community has already formed considering the game has only been released since halloween. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> One draw-back from CS and Day OF Defeat is the amount of jerks there are. Anyway, I dont want to make this lovely post negative. I just wanted to say hey and let everyone know I am here and that I am going to be here a lot!!! This game rocks! PM OR IM ME! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hi ppl, I'm another Carl. I heard about NS from a friend of mine that I have regular LAN parties with. We have all-day saturday LAN parties every two weeks at our office building so we're always on the lookout for new games to try. This saturday will be NS and I have the feeling it'll become a regular staple :o)

    Not bad considering the competition is DoD, CS and WC3.

    I love the Alien movie series and I was freaked out completely while playing the original Aliens mod: ALiens Quake. AvP I also found scary so I'm looking forward to being the nasty alien this weekend <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I have the impression this game will really take off. I've been wondering when a game would come out that featured RTS and FPS blended together. The technology's been around for a long time but no one seems to hit on a way to pull it off. Congrats to them team and don't be surprised when a dozen hit games come out that feature clones of your idea! (Hopefully yours will be one of those games)

    Hi
    I was a bit of a CS player before moving on to playing other games.
    Playing NS has got me playing FPS again:)

    Good job on the biggest mod since cs!!!

    My head has been blowing up ever since I getting into about it before it went out (RTS and FPS!!!).
