My favorite part is when they say they "invented" the First Person Shooter/Real Time Strategy hybrid.

Its only saving grace is that it will not require a monthly fee.

    I believe there is already a topic for it. You cannot know who rippoed off who, however, because this game may have been in production for a long time and also simply not known about NS. By the looks of it, it's a highly different game though.

    It's like saying every FPS ripped off DOOM.

    Well, it's not exactly like every detail of NS was completely thought up by Flayra either. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    So many threads on this.

    - I beta tested Savage and it plays very differently.
    - Monseur Evil pimped the game at readyroom.org.
    - There was another RTSFPS (RTSS) game before NS, so if you want to play the copy-cat game it can go back further.

    Team Fortress 2 plans announced ages ago had the same idea - RTT + FPS views. (RTT rather then RTS since IIRC TF2 didn't have any resources)
