Just heard about this mod through the PC gamer spread.  Looks very interesting, I played a lot of Gloom in Quake 2, and this seems to be similar at least in theory.  I'd love to hear some feedback from anyone who has been playtesting, just general impressions overall.  From what I've seen the top down commander view looks very intriguing.  If you actually got a squad who would follow orders it could be VERY cool.  I hope this mod happens, i cant wait to play.

    Welcome, Icculus.  NS isn't much like Gloom, but I think if you like it, you'll like NS.  Also, NS certainly IS happening. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://66.78.33.98/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Greetings <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://66.78.33.98/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo--> NS is very much like Gloom in some respects, but in most respects its completely different. I don't deny that many NS follows are Gloom fans, though <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://66.78.33.98/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Soon all the old posts will be back up, and I strongly advise rooting around in many of the tasty sounding ones. You'll find out lots of stuff about NS then, but you'll just as quickly learn the nickname for the level 1 alien by hanging around for...ohhhh, I'd guess 5 minutes? (He's a pretty popular guy.)

    Yeah, except this thread is 2 years old, when Flayra was still very active in the community. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Check the dates. This is back when Cyanide was still alive, along with Flayra.

    [edit] And here I thought Cyanide was back. This isn't the first time <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo--> [/edit]

    Isn't bumping really old threads annoying to the mods or something? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Thank you for not doing this ever again.

    Translation: don't bump dead threads.
