The mapping is fantastic.
Really wish people would read the about section <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->.
First, Nightwatch is currently planned as a single-player only mod. Next, those 3 aliens arent the only aliens you'll encounter ingame, simply the only ones we're showing right now. Don't worry, when Nightwatch is released you'll be sure to encounter alot more in the way of enemies than those three <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->.
And I must say, QUADs work PWNS the PWNING PWN machine.
I wish I could show you some of his.. ahem.. other work, but I won't. But trust me, it pwns! :D

When is this going to be ready to release.
I remember reading about Nightwatch almost a year ago.
I WANT IT NOW!!!! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
*reads*
oh...wait....nevermind...this...this...this is vanilla HL? Not HL 2? Not HL 1.5?
Quaunaut: Well, nearing completion... yes. Nearing completion as fast as the general community would want us to be (as in, releasing in the next week or so <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )... no. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Glad to know you guys like it. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
This is what's been mainly keeping me away from doing more NS work. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> Sorry. But keep an eye out for me to be back soon. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Hard to believe this is all HL. Can't wait for it to be released.
Maps : Been there seen that.
Weapons : Simple models... good skins... We have better stuff on these forums!
Characters : Nothing original
Er.. where have you seen that exactly? These maps have the highest poly ceiling of an HL SP episode to date, and they're certainly excellently detailed. I really would like to know of any SP mods with higher quality maps than these.

There are more detailed maps IN HIS MIND!
And there was a mod which had a sequel... cant rember the name but it wasnt English and you played Freeman (if i remeber)

The one where you played as an alien...... You start off as the slave? Dear god, that had some of the most suckass level design i've ever seen. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
kinda like your CO_dawn (think thats what its called) only less alieny... i know what im on about
Well, probably not, but we've been rather surprised with the lack of negativity so far. It's a nice change of pace <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Well, not sure where you would have, as I feel we have a pretty unique style, within HL at least... oh well.

Doesn't matter what's on these forums. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> The model polycounts and physical detail levels actually aren't all that far shy of HL2's poly limits on weapons (which is only ~2000, IIRC). Arms push that up, of course. Custom community always has pushed that a lot farther, but we're not the custom community, now are we? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> I agree, there's some really sweet stuff here, but I do have to say for an actual organized mod team we hold a pretty solid quality here. There's always some really awesome individuals wherever you go, but pulling a solid group together out of those individuals is much tougher.
Oh, if it makes a difference, most of those models are by def_one. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Of course not. It's a Half-Life single player episode. You're seeing re-created HL characters, with the exception of our MilSec characters. We're not going to make a HL-based episode and just create -everything- from scratch. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> And we're not going to play all our cards this early <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
Edit: I just realized some of the weapon models for Poke646 were changed because they were new weapons. Those models were about to NW quality. They just didn't change the character models beyond skins.
