Yup seen it, diss is naw? That is for them to do! <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo--> (if you don't know what I mean, just mention NS in their forums and see how fast you get banned, took me less than a day when I made a post about it).

Play it? Nope, not after my experiences with them, even when trying to be polite.

    I dont think you will find any bad feelings or comments against Paroxysm mod in our community (at least not from the people I consider the helpful and mature ones). It looks like a very fun mod, I cannot wait. I just wish that they felt a bit more friendly towards us.

    They however, from comprox's description, sure sound terribly moody and very shallow, i tend to not get along with people who are that stupid.

    Edit - After viewing some of there posts, i can completely see what comprox means.  I sense another Desert Crisis community.

    None of the dev team have any ill feelings towards Paroxysm, and we don't think they have any towards us (anymore).

    It looks like a fun mod tho, and I hope they have what it takes to see it through to its release.

    Only thing I get from the webpage is that it is Alien vs Humans.  A faq would have been nice or something.

    The only bad thing I have to say about these Paroxysm folks is that their webpage is pretty fugly.

    Other then that, I think I will be downloading their game when it is released. Looks spiffy.

    Merk, they obviously still hate the NS dev team.  They hate you becuase, well, why should I tell you - let Banzai one of the mod leaders tell you.

    Ugh. Please don't get them all worked up again - I spent a couple days last week trying to keep this from turning into some sort of massive flamewar... Seriously, just don't bring up NS at all.

    I just read through a bit of the first link supplied by Steve, and I must say, this Banzai fellow has some issues. I found my self scrolling past a lot of the text he typed because of an overuse of profanity and childishness. Good ole' Monse was being perfectly formal.

    It was like watching a college graduate debate the meaning of love with a 7-year-old.

    You can check that off on your "Ways to tarnish a mod" list.  <!--emo&???--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->

    Edit: Oh, and their forums are pretty fugly too. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    I agree ThrillKill, their site is a little hard for me to figure out where everything is. And it does look really good, but doubt I'll dl it. /me can't fit much on this 4 gigs

    Sounds like a bunch of XBox fan boys saying "Eternal Darkness? More like resident evil ripoff. The game is ugly.. it doesn't even have trilinear bumpmapping vertex rotaion. HALO is 100000000x better."

    Thats a real shocker right there. A mod quality mod is trying to bring down a professional quality mod. That clipping critique is pretty funny though.  <!--emo&:tiny:--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tiny.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':tiny:'><!--endemo--> is the largest player model in HL, I beleive, and they knock it for clipping? Har!

    Plus, clipping of that sort (model) is easily fixed. ROFL.

    *EDIT*
    Par. busts on NS' visual shortcomings of a not done mod (they call it 'Nearly Complete'- meaning NOT FINISHED) when the extent of their media is a generic shotgun model and some other static renders.

    I agree.... they do seem ..... jealous? if maybe not of the mod (NS) itself but the exposure its getting?

    Besides.... they do seem like a moody bunch  <!--emo&???--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->

    Nothing good can come from this thread. So nothing more will. Remeber that liking NS does not require you to hate other mods...
