Ive been watching the progress of NS for about 5 months now and I have to say its the most anticaped 5 months ever. I am a mod guru, and I have about 115 mods on my computer. I was searching for some new mods and found this one <a href="http://www.planethalflife.com/paroxysm/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.planethalflife.com/paroxysm/index.html</a> . It seems pretty much like NS minus the commander mode. I was just wondering what everyone thought about this mod?

    There is also one huge difference in that mod. the marine team is played by humans, while the alien team is omputer controlled. I think most of the NS fans are looking forward to it also, after some rocky relations when we first met <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
    Tering through tons of aliens nd not having them jumping around diving under my shots sounds fun!

    I think it looks like a neat CO-OP mod.  It is marines vs. aliens and does involve teamwork.  But that ends the similarities.  Paryoxsm is being made for the coop crowd.  NS is being made for the RTS/Teamplay/Deathmatch crowd.  I dont really see them as in competition.

    NS is completely different. (at least thats what i think)
    Its loaded with all these awesome features that no MOD has and to top it off, the graphics and textures are very professional.

    From my understanding Paroxysm is a CO-op mod and it also looks just about as fun as NS. But NS *could* be filed into a different genre of gameplay.

    [edit] and plus, i dont think that having competition would affect the community of ns. i mean, look at cs. its probably the most successful mod out there with the largest community. if a person decided to quit playing it, it would probably most likely be out of bordom.

    Paroxysm to me seems like another sven Co-Op were you are human players vs. computer controled aliens. Or mabey thats just me.
