Best part is when one or two other guys catch on to what you're doing and start playing along :D

Onos spawning under or in the floor!<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Nancy wasn't very kind to the onos, even in 1.04, before the updated hullfile that made them sink into the floor/get stuck when they crouched.
Knife knock-back was brutal. You could almost juggle an onos by crouching down and knifing upwards. It wouldn't do much damage but it would stall them for a second or two before they could kill you. The messhall doors on nancy were lethal; they would instagib anything that was in the way when they close. It wasn't too hard to crush an unsuspecting onos in there.

Oh gawd I forgot about the crouchbug, remember that one! Absolutely murderous vs skulks in Viaduct's redroom siege point and also that long long long ventilation from viaduct!
I just remember when I first started playing, my first map was ns_caged. I had no idea what was going on, and I see an alien(skulk) running into Marine Start and start blasting it. I had no idea that players were even able to control the aliens. I thought they were just bots. I began trying to use some of the structures to see if they'd give me anything (Arms Lab, and Proto) but nothing happened. I started asking questions to other players on how to play and everyone seemed so friendly to chip in and help out. Then came my first commanding game which was disasterous, but still managed to pull off a victory because once again, everyone helped, and gave some good pointers on how to become a good comm. Then I switched over to trying aliens and fell even more in love with NS.
Fast paced action/strategy, using quick reflexes, teamwork, and dynamic strategies is something you won't find in any other game quite like how it is in NS.
From being a beginner in NS, to a server admin on the IAM server back in the days, back to a regular, then to an NS division leader in another clan, and then back to regular/vet status, I've had quite the long journey over the course of 7 years of me playing( I wish I played NS from it's initial launch). I guarantee you, I will not stop playing.
I've had so many fun moments in NS with epic matches, hilarious people, learning all the memes of NS (Commander! Theres a L0rk on the Cl0rf!)... BLARGH! I just love this game so much. Call me a fanboy.

You and I both. I plan to try and spearhead it, if I have to.
It doesn't take much effort to get all your old NS buddies to start playing NS again. Start up your server, invite your friends on steam, and start playing!

Natural Selection is my game.
8 years... I remember playing this back in high school. So many memories. So many rage-quits.
Caek n pai for everyone!
