1 Bit Installer Please!

I dont know if its been brought up, I havent browsed these forums in like a year, but someone needs to make 1 big installer for NS. I was talking some friends of mine into playing NS the other day, and 1 guy was all "wait, i gotta download all 3 of those files, and install them in a specific order, just to play this 3rd party steam game? forget that..."

:-(

    A single installer will be released when NS 3.0 is complete. At the moment, 3.0 is still in a Beta format.

    NS 2.01 only requires one large download, and a minimal patch.

    If his attention span was that short, what's the likelihood of him actually bothering to learn ns anyway <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    actually, talesin, if you remeber, NS is getting added to steam's officially supported games shortly after beta 5 eliminating all this patching nonsense forever.

    Quite similiar to patching a game...

    I guess your friend doesn't play many games.

    Yeah, No more patching !
    Once its an official part of steam, it will never work again <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Except that all the servers are empty, those that still stay in v2, and people cannot bugger to find them through Googling. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I still find it cool that its more a pain to install ns than any other Hl mods, at least only ppl interrested in the genre come and try.

    But I guess about 50 percent of computer gamers could be interrested in the best Rts/Fps in one in the world...
