Just wondering what could be coming. It's been 3 months since Gorgeous, the time is nearing. We already know we're getting Biodome, but what else is there? They had a model for the taser back in April Fools, maybe that could be making an appearance?

Female marine? discovery? eclipse? there's been suggestions of lots of things in the works, but only time will tell what gets released in what order.
There's plenty of good mods and custom maps to keep you distracted in the mean time.
Mainly it's going to be the implementation of Sewlek's balance test mod. If you haven't heard of it, it beings a massive number of changes to NS2. Some of these changes are great, others are... shall we say... controversial. It's still in the process of being tested and improved but is expected to be integrated into the game at some point in the coming weeks.
As far as brand new content haven't heard anything, but the BT mod makes certain underutilized weapons and abilities (gls, flamers, exos, xenocide, umbra, vortex kinda) more viable so it is sort of like introducing new content.
@locklear - Looks like your graph is broken. NS2stats.org shows a peak over 2k concurrent players this weekend. That might even be a bit lower than actual as well.
^I do not think those numbers are concurrent players. You can see the players graph matches with the rounds played graphs next to it. So I think it takes the total amount of rounds played throughout the day up until a certain time (17 hours based on mousing over the dot for each day) and then gives the total players who played within these rounds for the day. So today at 17h there were 288 rounds played up until this time with 1852 players participating within these matches.
You can easily see the concurrent players on the UWE website by clicking home and looking to the right on the top. I used to use steamgraphs but the game has fell of the top 100 on steam so now I have been tracking the stats on the uwe site for a while and noticed the peak time is usually 4:30pm-5:30pm est over here. Right now it has 879 players. Steampowered stats is also very accurate with concurrent players since it practically tracks all players on steam but again since it is not on the top 100 it is not tracked.
The steamgraph stops tracking when numbers fall below 800. So anything below 800 shows as 0.
Its anything that's below the Top 100 in Steam, not based on playercount. I've seen that number vary anywhere from 500-2000 players depending on the day/time.
I heard that 'skulking' was the next update, the stealth upgrades for both teams are going be amazing along with a new map. Then after that it's the Onicandy, just like the term eye candy, Its going to be on massive visual updates and texture models. Just wait and see it all! tune in and watch it all happen. And the updates after that, well I don't want to spoil it for you.

>exos
I unno, I'm a little bit tired of screaming "Please don't by more exos!!"
and grenades (look in natual selection 2/ns2/lua/Weapons/Marines
for the organized play system : Natural Selection 2\ns2\lua\menu\GUIMainMenu_FindPeople.lua is already here ^^
I already knew that, grenades come up as a missing file in my console when I'm on BT :P
I didn't know about the find people though, thanks for that
I meant underutilized from a competitive perspective. In pubs they can't seem to get enough of the things.
Organized play systems for a player count that doesn't even track anymore..

I just want hughnicorns. Can you talk like a horse Hugh and record it in game for me as a mod to voice the marines? I'd love you 24/7.
my mistake
