i remember the ns 1.0 days where an alien could become a marine, turrets didnt need tfs, bast was uber leet and all the other tidbits that made the game fun.
AND THERE WERE NO NOOBS OR HAX! lol
man some of those concept maps looked awesome, and hera looked great. if you guys still have them, you should release them.

The maps looked so awesome back then. Now everything is either bright and clean-cut or needlessly dark. Either way, boring.

holy crap, glowing marines... power armor was the shite!(I don't mean HA.) It was an old static upgrade(applied to all marines, like armor and weapons upgrades) That made them glow blue like electric nodes and regenerate armor automaticly. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> Too bad it was taken out before 1.0 : ( Would be cool to add in now, I remember the biggest complaint was that the marines were way to easy to spot, but with the alien flashlight, is that an issue now?
Old old Hera was HUGE. Most of the maps had a bizarre scale. I only got into NS at 2.0 but I managed to get my hands on some older stuff.
TBH the really wacky stuff is the prerelease gear, when they had this big tentacle thing for Onos, fades were the Genestealer model, I think skulks were some sort of eyeless mouth thing like a turkey. Fun times.
oh, and the gensetealer, if no one knows ( I didnt...) looks like this. <a href='http://www.planethalflife.com/features/modelotw/gs.shtm' target='_blank'>http://www.planethalflife.com/features/modelotw/gs.shtm</a>
