If you don't like the way things are, why do you keep playing 2.0 like a sheep, waiting for 3.0 to be handed down from upon high? Of course there are great reasons for the 3.0 delay, and I respect the developers. But I'm personally tired of 2.0. So, my solution:
Just play Day of Defeat or other Steam games and wait until Natural Selection shows up in the Steam menu. It's as simple as that. A nice change of pace, and it saves the bother of checking the NS website every day waiting for 3.0.
This is only a suggestion, but it works well for me.

Sorry, but DOD and CS are way too boring for me. Very few servers exist for OP4DM. HLDM is repetitive, Ricochet is well...ricochet (it's not bad, but total lack of map variety = teh lose), TFC...well, I used to enjoy it, but still. NS is really a step above those. I don't really play any other mods aside from it (I play Sven Coop a lot, The Specialists too, but trying to find a server where people will engage in melee combat is hard on that.)
But oh well. I've found some other games to occupy my time with (AvP2, Starcraft/Brood War, Delta Force: LW...yeah, old games, but I don't care), and I check the forums every day anyway.
Criminally underrated mod that. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Every day? Try every 4.76 minutes! *twitch*
I've stopped playing NS for the most part because of the frustration. In most FPS games, I can shoot a person while running. But in NS, because of the screwy hit boxes, well, I can't kill a skulk in MS on Nothing. I have a bad habit of following the model instead of it's hit box. So I've been tryingt o improve my shooting skills by playing games with fast moving targets so when 3.0 comes out, I can actually contribute something to my team instead of being a target while the HA/HMGs mow down the Onos... <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
If you're tired of 2.0, then play another FPS. Learn how to lead better, shoot the smallest part of the hitbox showing and try and spot things in dim lit corridors.
Having not played NS For months as I am waiting for a final version of 3.0 to be released.....
Halo PC. Pure, mindless fun. Doesn't beat ns though <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Thats great Squishy. Just ruin it for everyone. Why doncha steal candy from the kids while you are at it?
Don't listen to Evil Squishy, kids. 3.0f is coming out tonight or tomorrow with changes and stuff. Don't sell the bear's pelt before you've shot the bear as we say here.
Or don't shoot the bear at all and avoid getting killed by the bear or angry PETA mob.
Good times. :D
I be the judge when the game is out of beta and released to the public. I suggest that you as well would reserve your judgement untill then. For now you should keep your discussions and criticisms to the veteran and beta forums. You were invited to playtest Ns 3.0 to make it fit for clan play by providing valuable feedback. Dissing the mod in public before its finished makes me wonder if you belong as a veteran playtester at all with that attitude.
its a test build its for testing not for regualr play its to work out balance and bugs, get a clue before you say the things you said squishy.
i am waiting for V3.0 but know id rather it be finished correctly than rushed out unbalanced, i work in the games industry and know about deadlines and trying to get work done, wed all like to see our work finished correctly but we dont have time, Flayra has created something magnificent in this game and has the oppurtunity to set his own deadlines and i envy him for that.
when im not Playing V2.01, you can find me playig FFXi killing nasty orcsies and goblins and the odd Dragon here and there :o
Maybe aliens aren't doing what they're supposed to be doing then. Like gorging, for example.
It's better to wait for the final version then to have them release a buggy game, admit it.
Um, I think that's because everything that was ever good in CS got put in there by accident, and then slowly removed the offending "bugs" over the course of newer builds.
NS:C is what NS really needs: a way to fill servers to get a real game going. If Combat and nothing else but removing major bugs (hitbox, steam stuff, etc.) get fixed up, that will be an improvement. It would be pretty hard for the devs to butcher it <i>on purpose</i> to make up for the improvements this round.
