    Finally! I'll be hanging around with <a href="http://www.3-pg.com/" target="_blank">3-PG</a> and hopefully playing with them very shortly.

    Time to whip this game into shape!

    I've been looking forward to this game for so long, and I'm glad you guys let us help out in testing and polishing it.

    Rock on UW, let's do this!

    4+ Years wait, and now we come to the final 3.5 hours... just out of reach of some form of playable NS2.

    I cant wait.. WOOT!

    However, since I live in Denmark, I will be asleep when you release the alpha. It would have been nice, if you'd released it a few hours earlier, so Europe would have had the pleasure on the 26th as well ...

    Anyways thanks for what promises to be a great game :-)<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    On the bright side, tomorrow you will have the best damned breakfast ever.

    I refuse to succumb to sleep tonight. It'll probably be around 3:00 am here before it's available but I have nothing better to do anyway :D

    UWE, you guys are completely and utterly awesome. Much love to you!

    Lets make history people!

    I got two other people to buy as well because I believe you guys deserve the support and money! Sadly I have school from 6-10 tonight D: so I have to sit through class anxiously wanting to play NS2 ALPHA!!! sigh...but it will be oh so worth the 5-6 year wait no doubt.

    I want to say again you guys are awesome for how much work has gone into this and I'm really proud and honored to be a part of the development of this game as a tester.

    Thanks UWE!!! <3 <3 <3 <3

    Get to sleep right now. Set your alarm early. Wake up. Make pancakes, eggs, bacon, and toast while NS2 is downloading. Play NS2 for like an hour before work. Thank me later.

    I love all you guys at UnknownWorlds. I hope the money you expect to generate off this game, and the quality the community expects of you are exceeded one thousand fold.
  • sicbudsicbud Join Date: 2009-07-08 Member: 68083Members
    Can't wait! I just hope everyone is nice to the noobs, not everyone has been playing NS1 for 8 years. ;)
  • BigtoyBigtoy Join Date: 2002-11-02 Member: 3766Members, Constellation
    Adding my vocal support for UW!! Cannot wait to help shake out and shape this game!

    Some co-workers and I were reminiscing about the first day NS1 was available and we all called our spouses and told them we had to work late that night. (We were busted when one of the team members spouse showed up with a surprise dinner.)

    Ah, finally we can start testing community maps and see how many of those fancy pictures will be demolished in the name of balance :P
  • eXaeXa Join Date: 2007-09-22 Member: 62400Members
    On my 20.000 musics library playing in random today I've felt on <a href="http://www28.zippyshare.com/v/37162967/file.html" target="_blank">http://www28.zippyshare.com/v/37162967/file.html</a> This is a sign !!! :P

    PS: For low connection guys don't complain I won't be able to play it until in 18:30 hours Because I can't stay up till 5 am cause I have to work and I guess that a lot of people are in the same situation ><

    i'm so freaking unsure, should i really write about everything i notice @the alpha?

    Wouldn't have guessed 8 years ago when I was playing around on NS1 that the game would come so far as it has today. Big congrats to all the developers for hitting alpha testing on a great game.
  • BigTextBigText Join Date: 2007-12-21 Member: 63231Members
    When I first looked at the blog title, I thought it said "No Alpha Tonight". My hopes were dashed.

    And then I scimmed the first bit of the blog and found nothing mentioning the lack of an alpha, reread the title, and my hopes were returned.

    Overall it was like taking a heavy punch to the chest, thinking that your ribcage collapsed or something, and then realizing you were fine. I still got punched in the chest though; I could have done without that feeling. Not your fault, though.

    Thanks for all the hard work, guys!

    Thanks mate - would if I could :-)

    Thanks for keeping my spirit up. Have fun in a few hours - Hopefully any startup-bugs will have been sorted out by the time I'll be able to play tomorrow. Cheers.
