If I recall correctly, before the 1.0 release, someone had asked about Marine vs Marine, and Kharaa vs Kharaa, and Flayra (I think, perhaps MonsE) said it was planned....
I think it would be very interesting, with some tweaking... i.e. much weaker sieges.
imagine having inter-turret farm wars, the one with the most turrets wins, and has 10 ppl welding away forever <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
I dont like the idea of Red Team Vs Blue Team. I'd expect seperate technology for each team. The fun part about NS is the complete difference between each team.

15 Jears after the normal NS story, the Aliens are all mainly dead. And now there is a war between the Marines. In all that chaos the Aliens came back...

me and some others were thinking of asking the NS team if we could do this for them, like make this, but alas, i doubt they'd listen or even receive the request <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
I know that Flayra was rather enthusiastic about a 'commander vs. commander' mode decipting the confrontation between two human factions at one point. Not much new after that for a long time, though...
