That's probably because they hadn't thought of them yet.

Yes! That is very nice, but i was more looking for a development stage While that was nice to read, i was looking for a ermm NSTR1 (was it called?) to 1.0 changelog. I was hoping maybe a beta tester, or a dev would have them hidden away somewhere.
In a somewhat surprising move, the Natural Selection team has announced today that they are removing the aliens from their upcoming "humans vs. aliens" mod, Natural Selection.
"We've decided to drop the aliens and focus more on the realistic, squad-based tactics of the marines. People want realism. No one wants aliens. Just look at how many people are playing Counter-strike. Now look at how many people are playing Aliens vs. Predator. Honestly, I don't know what we were thinking."
"This is a team decision, and everyone on the team feels like it's the right thing to do. They were really delaying the release date, and frankly, they're a huge pain in the ****. I think I speak for the community when I say, I never want to see another xenoform, slime-mound or hive-thingie ever again."
But what will fans think of this?
"I think they'll understand. Most people didn't want to play aliens anyways, they complained that the marines were going to be too powerful with their rifles and phase gates, so I don't think anyone will really mind. By the way, have you seen the recent numbers for Day of Defeat?"

I believe thats eclipse??? In the corridor near CC hive.
Extensive particle effects (smoke, fog, fire, cold breath)
Extensive taunts, breathing and hissing for aliens
Slight jingling of bullets when marines walk, background breathing</b>
Different material types that make different sounds when walking (or scuttling) on them
<b>Simulate background ambient noises programmatically
Extensive hand gestures for marines</b>
"Jungle" feel for aliens with "bogs", mist and mossy growth. They change the environment with their presence.

lol check the date <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
as for the original NS concept -- interesting read, sounds more like NS combat than traditional NS, which is odd because NS combat only just came out <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

This is still there, one of the major features. Those steam looking things you find in maps? Ya, particle system.

Uhm... chuckle? The need healing sound is there.

Gun sounds and screams are heard through trebly radio when teammate isn’t close by
Some of those taken out probably because Flayra wanted to keep the game PG13. Hell, I probably wouldn't be playing NS if there were background screams or other scary stuff :X>

To my knowledge there were only 4 Changelogs released to the public . (Release Candidate 8 , 9 , 9A and 10) I collected all those and wrapped them together in a small html file.
In addition to that i copied the stuff that was released immediately after the NDA ( non-disclosure agency) was lifted and the PTs were able to say whatever they want.
<i> ( If someone still knows who wrote that down, i would be pleased to give the author credit)</i>
You can find all that stuff here :

Notice there have been made some last-minute final changes which havn't been publically announced. Maybe a PT would be nice enough to search the PT forum to find all the other RC Changelogs.
If there is someone interested in reading all the Frontline Stories (all kinds of suspense and action packed stories, written by such famous PTs such as Humbaba, Fam or Coil <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->) I still have them. (I think I'll just put them up in a minute, or tomorrow)

saw that video months ago. the particle slider bar editor made particle editing look easy
I also like that Opforce grunt as a marine. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
