<b>We take over a new double-resource node.  The big hunched over tube-creatures are the alien resource towers, and they harvest resources from the nodes they're sitting on.  There are defensive chambers between them, which heal all aliens and buildings in a radius.  It's going to take a lot of ammo to take out this group of buildings, because everything here will be regenerating...</b>

    amazing shots, but in the last pic, that alien placeholder , i thought the bob model was already in the Pt, or has it been taken out again, or is that the level 5 placeholder now d:D I can see the team has decided that you'll look throug hthe mouths for all aliens, wonder if that will work for the level5

    omg! Those shots are awesome!

    Just one thing. IMO the BOB in the last pic looks quite a bit big. Will that be changed?

    The second pic shows you as a builder, right?

    Is it just me or is it just everytime I see the flyer he gets smaller and smaller? Quick question, what exactly is that lil pinky a place holder for, or am i missing something? Could it be a pre-evolution, a level 0, or is it just bob I see? Really nice pics! <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo--> What exactly the gestation period model look like?

    I love the alien spawn/gestation shot.  AWESOME WORK!  I love that look.  And so many buildings!  So much stuff to comprehend... so many possibilities!!!!!!

    AWESOME!!!!  I assume the grenade launcher will be tweaked?

    The placeholder in the last shot is a Builder.  Likewise the snout you see in the second shot is a Builder.  The builder sees itself as it should be but nobody else does...  Yet.

    The artwork for the Bobs has been fully implemented.  See some shots from last week.

    You can tell if you are webbed by the noise and the fact that you can hardly move. My best was running around a corner into the biggest web you have ever seen, right next to a hive. I was a gonner.

    /me is happy
    just hopes they find an elegant replacement for the progress bar in situations other than building as it already has one
    like for the gestation.... I don't know if possible maybe the wall of the "egg" starts solid and ends nearly transparent?  sorta like the matter inside was being used up...
    do you have anything for welding?  that one seems harder...

    In the last shot Sono, that is not Bob, that is a placeholder level 2. The real Bob is quite tiny.
    As for the flyer model, it is placeholder also until the real one gets the animations all done <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    I just HAD to login and tell you guys what a great job you did, and in this small amount of time!
    This mod is going to be a blast, that's for sure!
    I really can't wait to play this beauty, and I bet I'm not the only one! My god how beautiful, I can't even recognize Halflife in it, the maps are so smooth and having their unique atmospheres, it's hard to believe what you guys did.
    4 thumbs (incl. my toe thumbs) up!
    Very good job!

    Splendid work folks.  I am pleased to see the amazing progress that NS has made even in the last two weeks alone.  The reload animation caught my eye particularily...
    A quick question: which alien is that in the first picture?  Looks like something with a protrusion, maybe the level 2?

    The gestation idea is brilliant, I love the immersion it will add, making you feel as if you are truly enmeshed in a biological egg.

    I have an idea for the webbing.  Could there be a model (or whatever) similar to the egg shell created that would cover the screen indicating that you have been webbed?  Something to think about.  

    Anyways I am thrilled with the level of professionalism and authenticity that has resulted from all the effort and dedication poured into this bad boy from day 1.  Flayra and the gang, I salute you.

    I-I-I-I'm stuttering a little bit, you see.  Last night I was ranting on IRC about how little screenshots meant to me because there were s-s-s-simply so many of them available on the forums and rr.org.  Flayra....you've d-debunked my entire argument.  These are by far the most incredible shots I've seen of NS, hands down.  

    Wow.

    These screenshots are awesome, I just have one question.  Would you say that the maps for NS are big?   Like are they bigger than counterstrike maps?  Cause if you play CS you prolly know how small maps like dust and stuff are ya know?   I was just wondering how NS maps compare to CS maps when it comes to size.
