@Vengaboy Yup! They've also put in Shadow tunnels and hydras.

Really?! I did wonder who Vetinari was on the SCC server! -
Happy Birthday, NS2! Woo!
-
Good luck! Exciting and sad times both.

If you take individual words out of a sentence like that, then it could mean that. However, Howser is addressing the angry responses and negativity that really are not needed.

It worked! Just passed the £5000 mark!

@WasabiOne - Just realised that it wont let me enter a non-US bank account despite me getting the routing number over the phone. I have no way of making a donation despi…

@WasabiOne - It is turning out to be very hard to donate from the UK via gofundme. First of all it wouldn't accept my address and offered no errors why. Finally after ju…

The great thing is that you can see this thing as you want to see it and decide to donate or not donate as you wish. People getting angry when no one is forcing them to donate is just daft... it took me a while to realise this and … -

This is a community run event. How are they supposed to address retention? -
I was initially aggressively against the whole idea. I thought we'd been delivered a strong slap to the face but that was just down to the terribly thought out reveal of the idea and some misconceptions they brought on themselves (now fully admitted…

Don't watch them then...
Personally, I really enjoyed this. Virsoul trashing the IP blueprint was hilarious!

Really enjoyed playing this last night. I've not played it since I last played NS1 (at least 3 years ago). It is a much faster combat map than the others currently out there and provides a lot more carnage.

To be honest, I think Hugh's post has swung me somewhat. I'm not sure I agree that it will be as well received but if the cost will definitely be recouped then that makes it no risk and only good can come of it.
-
I agree. I'd still play this game without the competitive scene but the competitive side would soon die off without a stream of new talent joining.
-
I'm actually happy for Hugh and Wasabi to get to do fun stuff off the funds as I think they've done huge amounts for the community. Saying that, I don't think people realise how much effort they have to put in when it comes to running the finals. Th…

No, that is not all it is. UWE are putting up 50% of the cash to fund this too. -

UWE are putting in 50% of the cash. We've technically already donated.

I am disappointed too. I was hoping that them saying that it would change the game for everyone was actually true. I wish they were actually giving the $30k to a couple of community mappers, a web site designer (for a ladder system which makes it ea…

Good call! Forget people nagging and do it like this in the future.

If you look at it from a newbies perspective, the welder and the build tool look the same. This means when you are building by pressing E, you are not daft to assume it is the same as welding it. I bet you there are a sizable amount of new players w…

This looks great! Nice work!
Was this any quicker to make than individually mapping? If so, is it worth considering working on a few normal mode maps collaboratively? Obviously, you'd need to agree a layout that would work first but I fi… -
Those images look great! I'll see if I can get online to play it on Sunday.

This is a beautiful looking map. It felt fluid but completely different to other maps to play. I can't wait to see it textured and tweaked.
-
It's looking to be shaping up nicely there. Nice one!
I could be wrong here... but does anyone else think that this layout looks quite similar to Jambi? -
A plush gorge has been developed by Wasabione and he shows it off in the PAX videos on the UWE youtube channel. He is hoping to sell them (with UWE's permission) and is currently arranging it.

NS2 are installing double glazing, putting in under-floor heating and are grouting the tiles in the bathroom for your bad analogy in the form of patch 256 right this minute. Perhaps you can wait to see how it performs before posting a sequel to this…
-
They are not about to change the prices after 2000+ people have already donated. That wouldn't be fair despite it not being necessary.

I really enjoyed playing it for the first time. Despite it not being textured yet, the rooms were memorable and I could get into the game without referring to the map too often.
