Can you say something already about what you are planning to include in the next version, which you didn´t have time to do in this version? Do you have plans for other types of aliens?

Gazaar · August 2002

As far as I know (but this is just me) flamethrower will probably be in the next version (stc), and I don't know about any new aliens (stc)

heh theres not even version 1 out and u guys are asking about the next one........ *sighs......

Tomodachi · August 2002

Companies plan ahead all the time, it's only natural for people to speculate ahead.

digz · August 2002

nets...

common, the most simple and basic of weapons, throw somekind of net around an alien, immobilizing the little critter, and unload <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/asrifle.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':asrifle:'> .

Flamethrowers sound good, I bet they will add more objectives for maps, marine vs marine would be nice too.

"Can you play marines vs. marines or aliens vs. aliens?
Yes. The first release won't have these scenarios, but the game is designed to support it. This will be supported in the near future after the first release." -Site FAQ

But I think they might add granades. /me shrugs

Gazaar · August 2002

I don't think I'd use normal hand grenades for a mod like this, just doesn't seem right. Digz, what's this about nets, cause it looks like I missed something...

Comprox · August 2002

Companies do plan ahead. This is a mod, and you never know how much you will put into the next release, but go ahead and speculate away! Heck, I have a few ideas, but not much.

Slycaster · August 2002

Actually, in my opinion, grenades WOULD fit good in NS, but none of you guys can really vouch for that because you havn't played it, but eh, i hope. I agree with comprox completely, also.

XyberBob · August 2002

Hopefully will add a few new weapons, a few new features, something along those lines, NS already looks like its balanced nicely, don't want to try and add a Laser or something annoying that stuffs all that up, but a flamethrower would do nicely

"I didn't just add the laser light for eye candy. I specifically added it as per a request from Charlie, who mentioned he was going to add the lasers in game.

However, he's pretty busy working on more important things at the moment, so I don't know if this is going to make it in or have to be reserved for a version 2 thing." -Squeal Like A Pig

Surge · August 2002

Cool... I didn't know there was a flamethrower being added... cool.... again.

Wha?

the_stalker · August 2002

hopefully the flames will look more like RTCW flames instead of tfc flames <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

Mouse · August 2002

To my knowledge, a flamethrower will only be added when Flayra is able to get volumetric flames, ie. if you use it in a area with alot of space the flames will spread out but not go very far forward, but if you use it in a vent the flames will shoot a good distance along the vent.

Once Flayra gets that working i think he might also make the explosions from grenades and stuff volumetric.

Slycaster · August 2002

I know for a fact that flay is trying to make one hell of a flamethrower, so don't expect it to come quick.

lol yeah. the flames frmo tfc were.... less then steller

digz · August 2002

i think nets would fit in ns, you know throw a net over a lvl 1 or 2, it gets tangled and immobilized for a few seconds giving a marine time to unload his weapon or run like the wind.

Freestyler · August 2002

The laser on the marines head will be more like a targetting system I'd imagine. If you read the FAQ's then it says that NS will NOT get an Laser weapon, EVER. It dosent fit NS at all.
