<div class="IPBDescription">Almost as cool as a skulks corpse.</div> Well today on the forums i was reading through some posts about how Flaryas source of income is the NS store and the Constelation program. After I read that I felt kinda guilty about playing this kicks **** game without haven't really contributed to the community. So I saw another post (this place is full of them <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> ) about buying a plush gorge and a plush scorpian that hovars without flapping <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> , so I decided to go check and see what they have and maby buy and item or two(probally one becuase I'm a cheap **** <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> ).

Most of the items there are decent items with a basic symbol like a hive, siege cannon, TSA symbol ect. ,some "Natural Selection" text, and some stickers and mouse pads with concept art on them. Currently the only thing in the store that some what interests me is <a href='http://www.cafeshops.com/thensstore.3714124' target='_blank'>this hat</a>.

Now, I will probally buy that hat, but thats not really what I was hoping for out of the NS shop. I was hoping to see more things along of the lines of dolls (many people want them), key chains, bumper stickers, T- Shirts and hat with more content (not dull shirt or hat that has a few letters or a symbols on them), contents like an Onos chasing a pair of marines with captions like "oh nos teh onos f4 f4" or a pair of skulks standing on over a space marine helmet with some witty phrase .Ya know stuff with humor with it.

I think this is pretty general...so discuss!




P.S. I don't want to come off as demanding to much (although i probally already have) so don't flame me x_X (that badly)

P.S.S. It's really late so sorry for any misspellings or grammar errors.

    I agree. Store has bit one way of clothing.

    A lot of white stuff.

    I personally use more black than white T-shirts. Black background and skulk in colors really kicks ****. I think that any picture in colors looks far better than black and white picture.

    It costs bit more to create picture with colors tough. Some one color prints last better than pictures in full color in T-shirts. So... I'd love to see full color images, but I don't know if I'd buy them.

    Cap is different matter. There textile doesn't flex and bend around. :-)

    Even though I am one of the biggest supporters of teh plush gorgeh, I can see why it isn't available (that said, will I stop whining about it? No way!). Diversity requires capital, as you make a loss on every item in the store until it is sold. The financial risk means that producing all these items that we want just isn't viable. The NS community just isn't big enough to support all this stuff. One the mod really kicks off and we get tens of thousands of players online simultaneously, and once the store starts getting pillaged for merchandise, it will become viable to add a lot of new items. So, tell your friends, tell your enemies (if they play you can frag 'em!), tell your granny, your dog, the platypus in your garden; tell them all to play NS so that the game will grow and grow and grow! And THEN I can finally get my plush gorgeh!

    Currently the company that we have the store set up with does not offer black clothing, so unfortunately we are restricted in that respect for the time being.

    As far as adding additional content, such as more images in color, it is something that is being worked on. However, it is going to take some time as my work demands are quite high right now, and a lot of my free time has been spent creating NS art for in game assets.

    The plush Gorge issue has been discussed to death, and believe me, the creators of Ns would like one as much as everyone else, if not more. At this time, due to financial and time constraints, it still does not remain feasible.

    Cafepress? Ick. But it's not a bad service.... You're just limited to all white stuff for the most part.

    Perhaps you could get a company such as Ty (the beanie babies people) to sponsor NS or something if you give them the rights to produce the plushies. I don't know how you'd go about this, but it's an idea if anyone knows how to get a company's interest.........

    You could always try spamming Todd McFarlane's email box for figurines. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
