Like I said before, I like the genres NS has touched, so as far as I'm concerned, more games in that genre is better, if NS is going to remain the top it will have to continue to develop and prove that it deserves the top spot, if it doesn't, well then I have something else to play <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />
Discussing the mod ID is fine and great but that is as far as this thread goes. Any personal attacks or posts that simply disrespect the Development team of NS or ID will be deleted.
Remember, inspiration is not plagiarism. Seeing as how this game is not released, it's far too early to judge how close it is to NS (remember Paroxysm?) and if NS has sparked an idea for a great (and different) game, it's all the better.

Even if Flayra could, he doesn't want to.
NemesisZero, Flayra, most of the devs, even wished Zunni luck on his mod.
There is a few topics and stuff about it(in Readyroom.org/forums, this site I believe, and ID forums), and discussing the reason for the name (On the ID forums).
And like SnappyCrunch said on this topic, his mod isn't suppose to be like NS, if it was suppose to be like NS, he wouldn't have left the NS team.
He wanted more like the older versions of NS with longer games(it lasted for hours back then).
