    This is great stuff. Would this mean NS would be moving away from being a HL mod?

    This is what you guys get for not listening to my GBL casts. I interviewed Flayra recently and he hinted at alot of this stuff. So yeah - listen to GBL.

    Summary:*

    Diskord: Flayra, you 0wNz!
    Flayra: Yes, [ big word ].
    Diskord: Plans for NS?
    Flayra: Maybe [ big word ], company to make games that are [ big word ] like NS. Or even expand the [ big word ] of NS.
    Diskord: Coo
    Flayra: Rgr

    *Warning: May not be exact wording.

    I dont think flayra will move away from hl any time soon. He has probally developed a good relationship with valve, they have great support for mods and I have a feeling the next ns or ns like game that comes from flayra will be on HL2.

    Hey guys,

    Thanks for the great respnose here. I love reading positive feedback from you guys, and it's very encouraging to hear that some of you are interested in what we're up to, and might be interested in a) buying our games b) investing in us.

    We're definitely going to keep supporting NS, but we're also going to be moving onto bigger and better NS-like projects. We are trying to get NS into retail, and are also looking at engines and thinking about NS2. If anyone is <b>seriously</b> interested in investing in UWE, please don't hesitate to drop me an e-mail at flayra (at) overmind.org. By seriously I mean that you're 18 or older, and have 10K or more cash that you would seriously consider giving for some stake in the company. It's not easy to get started, and we're looking at traditional publishing arrangements, as well as private investors.

    I think it's safe to say that you ain't seen nothin' yet. If you like NS I think you'll lllooove what comes next (though you're going to have to wait for it).

    Oh, man, that's great news. Unfortunately I don't have 10gs nor am I over 18, but I'll be sure to buy the games you produce.

    That is fantastic. I wish there was a way I could help but I am not of legal age (16) nor have that amount of money. I am trying to help with being a constellation though, as I think most people here should be.

    Well I'll be....

    Seriously if you do make NS retail you'll have the problem of piracy, and it might be a big problem.
    But then who would buy a pirated copy of something great? Go for it!

    BTW, nice member group there Flay.

    (I just hope they don't overprice retail NS if it comes out though)

    I'm excited to see whats coming next, but I sure hope that Natural-Selection gets pushed to its very limits before it's left for bigger better things, And I'm sure it will, eventually.

    Still....NS2? *droool*

    i cant imagine you will work on your game from uwe and ns parallel...
    im not sure if im happy about that for us ns fans...

    Congratulations, Mr. Cleavland! You have garnered a lot of respect, and have definatly earned this! I sincerly hope that everything works out - So far, the community has enjoyed the work of you and your 5-star development team, and to see it bloom into something larger, while still being fun for you and us, is a great sign of prosperity indeed.

    This is a bit off topic, and perhaps a bit out of line, but please, do the NS community a favour:

    DO NOT EVER EVER EVAR NEVER NEVAR consider a deal with EA, for even one of your products. You will regret it, mark my words, and the entire gaming community as a whole will sob uncontrollably ;_;. Those monsters have murdered more games, companies, and genres than I care to know.

    Once again, thanks!
