    There is NO reason to jump all the way down his throat.

    If you can't express your opinion without sarcastic cutting, then don't express it. I'm disappointed in all of you.

    TSK TSK! For shame! Honestly if Flayra did/does have the money, and resources it would take to do this it would be very interesting. I don't care what happens as long as valve doesn’t buy it out, it will be like DOD all over again.

    We'll have NS msgs pop up in game with a little skulk telling you too "shoot enemies" <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    In a somewhat related note, i think this is the first topic i've seen where the entire message is just copy and pasted three times.

    Haha, my chest is killing me, I'm all sore, now you made me laugh... I'm almost dead...


    NS breaking away from HL will not likely happen soon, as the developers would have to recode the entire engine (or create a better one) from scratch, and not be able to base it off of the HL one. Maybe, but I believe it will be a bigger change than porting it to HL2, which will most likely require less work (Just guessing).

    If i had the money, i'd buy NS from Flayra, let him keep control of NS, but i'd actually own it. My only demand would be that he keeps it free and good.

    Basically, i buy it before Valve do. Because, although i have a lot of respect for valve, they messed DOD up, one of my favourite ever games.

    Leave? No. That's a horrendous idea.

    Um...........

    No.

    Leave Half-Life and the impending Half-Life2?

    No, HL and its sweet sweet netcode has treated NS too well.

    Well the question should be rather, if NS was to break away from HL, where would it go? Would the devs write a whole new engine? Highly unlikely. Contenders such as Quake 3 or the Unreal engine come to mind, but honestly, why bother? HL still works great and does just about everything the devs want it to. Why fix something that's not broken?

    I don't think NS should break away. It creates a number of problems, the least of which is that Flayra would have to code a new engine, the models could be converted, but some of the brilliance of it would be lost, because a publisher would never let Flayra run it alone, they would force him to do things that go against his vision. as it is, HL is free, it's proliferated like cockroaches and it's got valvE's support in case modders have issues.

    Although I think it would be interesting to see NS on a newer game engine, I love HL and it's netcode! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
