<div class="IPBDescription">Speculation inside.</div>I seem to remember something about MonsE wanting to do a week-long PR blitz prior to NS's release.

Right now, he is posting shots from SEVEN different maps, one DAY at a time. Yesterday, PHL and HalfLife.org got new screenies.

Am I alone in thinking that release may be only 4 days away at this point?

    I would think that MonsE has something more spectacular than a map screen shot parade.  Think bigger.  =)

    This isn't the PR week, trust me. If you have visited the NS irc channel you could tell in a split second it ISNT PR week.

    Now I wonder If they'll have the same PR like the UT2003 demmo, with a small hint, then it coming out

    I'd be more inclined to think that the PR blitz will begin the day after the last map shot posting.

    I seem to recall MonsE mentioning that Flayra would announce that the code for NS had gone gold, then the PR blitz would begin... it'll be a public announcement, trust me, there will be absolutely NO question as to when the PR blitz has started.

    Bah!

    Every time Flay sneezes everyone thinks it's a mass conspiracy to suprise us with an unexpected release of NS.  Threads like this are going going to make the devs hesitate the next time they consider blessing us with screen shots or the like because whenever they do, they are bombarded with speculative questions.  These kind of threads only hurt us.
