    Will you guys be bringing Combat (CO_) Mode to NS2 in the near future?

    Can't wait to see all the new content. Well done!

    By the way, I've been searching around -- where can I find the teasers for the new features george is getting?

    It's already in as a mod. Filter maps by co_ and you'll find at least one full server.

    Combat already exists and does not need any official support, as the mod has developed quite nicely on its own. I've always been able to find at least 1 open combat server whenever i decide to start playing (Combat is a great way to warm up and practise before entering a real match)

    Nope, because people way more clever than us already have :). Check out some Combat gameplay here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R18NbD4Lg20" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R18NbD4Lg20</a>

    My hat off to Greeds and the rest of the Combat team for their outstanding contribution to the community!

    Yay, good news! :D

    I wish we had server-side demo recording, or at least an improved version of the client-side demorec (even if it misses stuff). I already have an awesome idea for a frag movie of sorts, but can't get the right shots with the current demo system :(. As far as I can tell, it seems like first-person spectator would require server-side demos.

    Anyway, can't wait for the new content :D

    Also, merry christmas everyone!

    Starting work on something else?
    That's hardly supporting an existing product is it?
  • zachtoszachtos Join Date: 2004-04-22 Member: 28078Awaiting Authorization, Constellation, Reinforced - Shadow
    Game expansion that adds the 'Protoss' type race. Players that own the expansion can play as them, otherwise they can only play vs. them? I dunno, but I'd buy it. Or story line modes or something?

    santa gorge slid down the chimney vent and put some presents under the cystmas tree and flew off on his sled being pulled by 8 tiny reinskulks.

    He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
    And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
    But I heard him exclaim, while he drove out of sight,
    "EEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHH!!"

    Decent is a new map, and gorge tunnels, from what I can gather from the interviews, are the alien answer to phase gates.

    I thought the same plus some weeks ago you told us in a forum post you will not start a new project for while and thats for me more then a three-quarters of a year and focus on polishing NS2.

    But i know you cant life forever with the sales you got from NS2 and because of that you have to look into the future for your meanwhile small company you created.

    But please dont left behind NS2 in the state it is now because it wouldn fit for a king !
    Atleast make the game really playable with steady 30-40 fps for all people with 3 year old computers like me.
