<div class="IPBDescription">huh?</div>So there's now a link on the front page to vote for NS2 for MODDB's Indy game of the year, but...isn't it a little silly to enter (or vote for) a game that's not released yet? The map editor's very good, even in its pre-alpha state, but that's really not enough to go on. I really do want to support you guys and I hope you make a successful game etc., but seriously? (according to MODDB, NS2 was released Oct 1, 2009)

    They have a category for Best Unreleased Indie Game. Does that make sense? I don't know. But based on the existence of the category, it seemed appropriate to add the link!

    HAH, maybe mod of the year 2012. More like Mapmaking tool of 2010.

    The mod of the year for 2012, may indeed be a mod for NS2. Like GorgeRacer!

    Here's hoping for Indie Game of 2010 for NS2.

    I dunno, I find the Spark editor alpha release even more intuitive then the Starcraft mapmaker previews

    I second that, I think SCUMedit will be absolutely fantastic with all the possibilities it offers.

    Then again, I think Spark will be great for it's purpose.

    Starcraft 2 doesn't count as an Indie title...
  • steppin'razorsteppin'razor Join Date: 2008-09-18 Member: 65033Members, Constellation
    Just noticed it's the second phase of voting so go back and vote again for NS2, and while your there show some love for Overgrowth (you can vote for more then one title)
