<div class="IPBDescription">and NSII had some cool new stuff</div> alrighty......now this is just an idea and I don't know if its been made or not. but yeah heres my idea
in NSII we introduce....thats right A NEW RACE!!!!! and before you get out your flame throwers and burn me to death NO its NOT a race that uses "energy" weapons like the protoss in starcraft... so don't worry about that at least....consider this idea on its merits
I don't know if you've seen the screen shots for HLII or not but there pretty dang amazing... and if NSII used HLII for its engine then it'd be awesome
this new race would be called...get this... the NANITES!!!! DUN dUN DUN thats right do to an out of control growth of nanites, the've managed to colonize into their own race!!!
I think they could be a cool metalic looking race that has a somewhat humanoid looking feel to it but its like liquid metal nanite goo that would try and kill not only the aliens... BUT THE MARINES TOO .. DUN DUN DUN....
I know its not really a great idea but I just thought it'd be cool....thats all

Actually, that's a matter of interpretation of the backstory; I know of at least one other thread in the past discussing such a matter. Try doing a search for such a topic, it was quite insightful, but sadly we have no definite answer.
so basically it'd be the aliens and the marines raging war on each other and the nanites just raging war agaisnt everyone and it'd be a free for all choas everyone killing everyone kinda thing

Yea I had the exact same idea of the third race spawning on res points... Think about it, 3 races fighting over res nodes... poor fatties <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I'm thinking of a metallic mysterious race... somewhere between the marines "YEA I'M LARGE AND IN CHARGE" attitude and the Kharaa's passive approach...
Maybe the new race could specialize in traps like some could make you permanently slower... some could zap a res... who knows?
Note by the way that the 'nanites gone wrong' interpretation is as far as I'm aware not Jeff Paris' intention.
Concerning a 'NS-HL2', you all should know by now that there are plans on creating a next-gen-engine retail NS2, that it's one of the possible projects Flayra offers possible investors, and that a HL2 mod is thus, while not impossible, unlikely.

I would definately buy ns2. But, Seeing how long it takes to develop a game, and it hasn't started yet, it could be 2 or more years off. Porting to hl2 would keep the player base here and dedicated until the next ns came out. Or am I wrong and all flayra needs is an engine and we are six months from ns2?
Just after the release of Duke Nukem Forever.
What would the nanites res towers look like, a pile of goop?? Hahaha
I think natural selection has already established a Marines vs. Alien gameplay, and
doing this would make the game 10 times more complicated (for n00bies)
and people remember NS as that alien/marine game. Besides, liquidy goop can
make a very nice Kharaa slushy <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
