  Cory is an endless source of great wallpapers. My current favorite is the painting of refinery, with three marines facing off against a herd of lerks.

  Yea his designs for aliens, weapons, exos, environments, etc really made the game turn out unique looking which is a nice break from most games I play. More maps based on that concept art can only be a good thing. I still hope this part of the art is used:

  The potential lighting effects along with the central tube/smaller tubes with plant life and darker areas in the back could come together to look awesome in the same room.

  It's already out there man my hopes are skyrocketing!

  Aww, I guess the addition of stuff from Sewlek's balance mod is still a way off then? Definitely looking forward to more performance increases and new maps though!

  That room is being built, yes. I believe its working name on the minimap is currently "Tree Tube Room".

  The green colour scheme is a welcome change from the yellow/orange and blue most maps seem to offer at the moment.

  Been waiting for this for a very long time and I'm glad it's in the works. From the concept it reminds me of a greener descent which is never a bad thing considering descent is drop dead gorgeous.

  Looks great, I really like the change to something greener, you would think they need plants in the future as well

  Haha! You are right. Did my first post-PAX NS2HD vid this morning. Mar/Apr is my busiest part of the year due to NSL Cologne event + PAX + other stuff being so close, so NS2HD play vids have suffered.

  concept art had no tresses. if hair shows at all it would need to be pulled tight anyway.
  
  i dont think the game needs marine babes taking off their helmets revealing flowing locks.
  
  
  wait.. what am i saying?

  I hope to see a fix to the crash on loading maps, it seems to be pretty common since the last update
