    Yeah, looking forward to NS2. NS had it's run and is far overdue in it's longevity for me. But I await the magic flowing from your hands.

    And that's saying something. I consider NS to be a pioneer game, so if Charlie can make NS2 that much more progressive then we're in for a real treat. I wish he'd tell me more on the phone, but he's all about the seeeekrets...

    Because one's a port (same basic game as NS, just flashier) and one is a NEW game....like completely new. Different than we have right now. Not similar. Dissimilar, even.

    They could even use teh same engine as FarCry...THe possibilties are endless. Heck maybe 7-11 will publish its own gaming engine that the NS2 dev team might decide to go with.....

    Other than that, I am very exsighted about the futre of NS and Unknownworlds Entertainment, cause since im sure after NS2 they will make even more games. (brain Hurts Now thinking aobut it)

    Im actualy curious as to how many companies will try to copy NS2

    That sentence just oozes with respect.

    NS2 and NS:Source are going to be SWEET. Just today I was thinking up ways in which NS could be so much cooler on Source.

    That's IIRC, anyway.

    I'm pretty sure the Simpsons got there first. I believe Kent Brockman declares his allegience to the new alien overlords in <i>Bart's Comet</i> (and goes on to decry democracy), but that may be yet another false memory planted in my mind by The Government.

    ---

    As for the topic...

    What else is realistic for NS:S?

    - I take it Source doesn't have the weapon limit, right? Does that mean we could see another alien lifeform or additional abilities for existing ones? It seems unfair that marines should grab all the benefits.

    - Maps would still have to be fairly "flat" in order to make the commander map managable. Right?

    - How would the physics be taken advantage of? That seems to be the biggest thing Source has to offer.

    Unless the coding gods figure out a way to make the commander viewing levels switchable...
  • Vincent_CristofVincent_Cristof Join Date: 2003-07-07 Member: 18019Members
    Thing is, the dev team isnt exactly sure what they can do just yet. so a switchable commander view may be possible. but also maybe not. who knows. that be kinda cool tho. kinda treat the camera like Sims 2. course im sure there would be convenience issues.

    The mouse wheel could be used to roll in between the levels. It might be too hard to multi-task, but who knows?

    The Constellation members of Natural Selection are currently testing the next version of the mod - NS 3.0 beta 6. But the developers behind the popular mod are also working on the next two big stepps of the NS universe : Natural Selection Source and Natural Selection 2. Leader Flayra has posted an interesting statement on this :

    " Flayra : The dev teams for NS and NS2 will eventually be totally separate, so both will continue to be updated for the years to come. NS2 will be a totally new game and will have both single-player and multi-player. It's going to be a much bigger 'leap forward' then NS was."
