Freemantle · July 2002

I wanna see a shot of Umbra. I still can't picture blinky with a rocket launcher.

{edit}

I know you all just playtested, because your IRC names gave it away. Can we see the lev 3 model?

RC2 would be Release Candidate 2. that would mean that they would have had to do some serious revisions to gameplay, etc.

I wanna see some screenies of the latest playest as well, whatever they're calling it.

Gwahir · July 2002

I believe it will be rc2 since it is feature complete

f3rret · July 2002

Meh, I may be wrong, but I think they called it RC1 once it became feature complete.

Either way, we all want more screenies. <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Plaguebearer · July 2002

From what I've seen in IRC, RC2 was the version just past this weekend. RC3 is next.

f3rret · July 2002

Hm... that's odd. I always thought "RC1" was a version number. meh, no biggie.

It's Release Candidate #1. That's pretty self-explanatory. If there's fixes made to RC1 before release, they will then playtest that new version as Release Candidate #2. So on and so forth, until they fix everything necessary for a final release which will probably be just Natural Selection [v1.0].

Jack-0 · July 2002

PseudoKnight let me be the first to welcome you to the forums!!! unfornatly there is no standard for how devloping mod/game is status is titled.. i.e. rc1, beta 1, alpha 1, 1.2a, and so forth. I would say that the dev team are using a logical titles, i mean release canidate 1 says it all.

Gwahir · July 2002

erm, Jack I agree with Pseudo... very logical, especially since a single playtest was refered to as rc1 instead of rc1:nspt##

Dekker · July 2002

i am not 100% sure but it means RC1 internal releasecandidat 2 or 3, becaus the rc1 is the first version, or maybe they were talking about features that will come up in the next version

PseudoKnight · July 2002

Thanks for the welcome, Jack-O. <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I'm just another potential NSer in cautious anticipation. I have no doubt I will get some enjoyment out of this game, but I have some high hopes that it will immerse, scare, and delight.

Jack-0 · July 2002

dekker, rc1 is feature complete, now they are working out the bugs and balancing the game play. When thw dev team feels that ns is what they intended on creating i'm sure that is when we will see ns version 1.0 (or sumthing like that) so i can

Gwahir · July 2002

this thread has been released from the sticky, does this mean we will very soon see a replacement?

Hicks-Aiens · July 2002

i hope so

Ghetto_Rice · July 2002

I think RC1/2/3 can also be a real release, I think it was the mod Firearms that titles their releases as RC 2.4 and so on but correct me if im wrong.

MonsieurEvil · July 2002

Yeah, they release their release candidates. Doesn't make much sense to put 'candidate' on there...

Sgt_X · July 2002

They could release these now but as their is still a small amount of place holders still, (I think) and balance issues to tweek wouldn't make sense.

Gwahir · July 2002

I believe the level 3 was supposed to be in by this RC, btw whatever replaced the welding and egg gestation progress bars (something as elegant as the construction progress indicator I hope)

Freemantle · July 2002

The game is already damn pretty as far as i can tell. Just some little artwork and animations.

Ghost_Agent · July 2002

Nice :o

Hicks-Aiens · July 2002

so, r there any even attempted release dates for this game?

Jack-0 · July 2002

ohh boy hicks i wonder when ppl will stop asking when will it be done....? i'm guessin never anyone wanna bet? anyway i'm sure the proper answer to your question is "when it's done..." (STC)

Hicks-Aiens · July 2002

yeah, mod devs usually hate 'release dates'. they never want to say something will be released, until its likea day or two away from completion, then tehres a last minute bug. i think theres osme kinda formula that could explain it...

Moleculor · July 2002

When It's Done.
