<div class="IPBDescription">Sticky me please.</div>Here's what I've collected from all the <b>official</b> statements on the topic of when it will be done.
<b>No speculation.</b> Flayra said to stop that entirely, so don't make any conjectures as to the date.
<b>The current progress is on the main site.</b> Which is <a href="http://www.natural-selection.org." target="_blank">http://www.natural-selection.org</a>. NS is close to 90% done in most areas, and is being worked on steadily.
<b>MonsE said soon.</b> Get your hopes up, but again, don't start betting on dates. Don't even start hoping on dates. Don't mention dates in connection with NS's release.
I hope that clears up the situation a bit.

MonsE - Ooog. Didn't they lose an angry coder recently? I'm not even going to touch that one.

Oh, and to make sure, how about adding a background image to the forums, saying "WHEN IT'S DONE" in fontsize 50? <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

Ug.. did they do anything? It looks exactly like counter-strike.

It may be like CS w/o all the hacking, I dunno.

I'm surprised more people haven't heard of these guys (was called The Sherman Project years ago). The mod has been in development since Christ was a corporal. They just had so many 'do-overs', where someone would leave and take the rights to all the materials they worked on with them. You'd think they would have learned after the 10th time to get exclusive ownership of the materials...
the mod will be out after 08/02/02, and before 12/31/06 (and twenty-six seconds)
ok, now on to the serious part...
everyone should just quit talking about when its going to be out... (at least on the forums) its just pointless, cause chances are its not gonna be out when people say it is, unless Flay or someone else on the team said its gonna be out around that date, hen chances are, its not going to be out then... (i know, its been said millions of times before, it should be made perfectly clear on all threads like this, or maybe a moderator can sticky a thread about "do not try to speculate the release date")
So what if it spreads wild forum rumors? Forum rumors don't leak to anywhere like planethalflife; if people are saying the mod's going to be released in August and it isn't, so what? People will keep waiting just the same as they have been - we don't have a choice.

So now everygame having player models with skimasks looks like CS? Right....especially since this game has been in development before CS came out. And i actually think this game looks kinda cool, i love iron sights.
AK47? Mp5? Bad Guys vs. Good Guys ©? Skimasks?
It is all so tired.. I am ready for *gasp* NEW ideas and concepts.
and also stop asking for the release date your all slowing them down by making them respond with threats <!--emo&:0--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'><!--endemo-->
And those threats aren't idle.
There's little to go against in this case, let them do their work, it'll make you happier in the end.
Valve decided that the HL engine was too outdated to do what they wanted so they are working on a completely new engine for TF2.

that is very old news
Obviously not to |SemperFi| over there.
And as a side note: I hate people who claim TF2 is vaporware, and I hope they all start crying to their mommies for the $60 to buy it when Valve starts its publicity blitz before the end of the year.
