    this article is not strictly about ns2 but it has a excellent quote

    "Meanwhile, “Aliens: Colonial Marines” mostly served to remind us of the last few Alien games. Gearbox is working its ass off on this title, but there’s a limit to how much variety you can put into something like this. Meanwhile, at a nearby booth, <b>“Natural Selection II” was playing and pretty much outpacing the franchise that inspired it in pretty much every way"</b>

Performance is a whole different issue. You can't work on performance then implement something that will completely kill it the next patch. They're doing what they can as it's a beta after all.. people need to remember that.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Performance-tuning is a continues process, you don't build your game just to find out at the end that it doesn't run on anything less than a 10GHz-machine. Keeping tabs on it, and re-evaluating design-decisions as you go along.

    Didn't really care for that Front Towards Gamer podcast... I don't know if it was the guy covering PAX just being wiped out, but neither of the podcasters had their facts straight. It was kind of disappointing.

    It's annoying that no one seems to know what they're talking about, but it's really nice to see all of the coverage for NS2.

    Nice one BlitzThose ! :D

    That picture on the gamefront article of the ONOS bearing down on the marine looks fantastic, shame it's low res.

    Found it in high res - <a href="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g168/Honelith/confrontation_ns2.jpg" target="_blank">http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g168/Hon...ntation_ns2.jpg</a>

    Hahaha brilliant a few amazing quotes in there:

    "For an 8 man team HOLY ######! O.o" :P i think thats a well done there guys

    "we were walking out and the guy came up to us he was really nice and his voice was shot, he said he'd been doing a tornement the night before...." Ahem....Hugh :P

    "They built their booth from scratch it was really cool" Also another well done me thinks :P

    But they say they did a full interview next day so i await it fully.... even if they couldnt describe it for ###### the first time :P :D

    i love how the guys in this podcast were on their way out for the day, stumbled across the ns2 booth, and got so excited about it. couple of times, they mentioned that the most exciting games at PAX were the ones that had no idea about, and then said that ns2 was one of them :D

    "to show how indie these guys are, they had to build their booth on their own, it was just made of two-by-fours and *crap* with fancy tvs strapped to it, pc rigs hidden underneath.... it was cool"

    "i wanna know how this game came about, if someone was just like 'let put starcraft and a first-person shooter together' i would just say youre stupid, but when i actually saw it in action it looked really cool"

    and like hillbilly said, theres a full interview coming as well from these guys
