And I'm absolutely dying while waiting for tomorrow.
Speaking of which, I seem to remember there was some question about "would you pre-order the next NS game" a while back... What ever happened with that? Are you planning on having a pre-order available? If so, I'm in.
I had a lot of downhills, but it made me thinking "what happened, why it din´t work". It´s very hard at beginning to face some things.
I completly re-do a lot of things in my life and from last year it had been very amazing my professional life.
For now i am doing a huge step forward in my professional life and i will be pretty well financially doing what i really like to do.
Move forward, *always*, and you will see a beautiful light at the end of the tunnel.
Just a descriptive word; or a hint at a possible new feature? (Creep?)
Didn't you just announce it? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />
Even though I'm not a supporter of what ns has become since folowup versions of 1.04, I still support the game. I just like the idea of the game very much. Heck I'm even recreating a final/last map for it and started playing it again (classic), however it has lost it's charm for me it once had. Alien gameplay is broken imho, 3.2 won't make up for it I think. So this player is mostly playing on rines now (I used to prefer aliens way back <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />)
Anyway, I am certainly looking forward to see what ns2 will be like. HL2 engine has so much more potential for this game. Perhaps ns came 4 years too soon? Seeing the amazing things you guys have achieved on this relic of an engine remains one for the record books...
Now the waiting continues...

/agree its funny I could be playing WoW, BF2142, Quake 4, COD - Which all have amazing graphics and are up todate. But NS....the Gameplay just blows me away. The improvements you guys did to the HL engine are fantastic and I believe it still looks up to par with some of the games just released.
Ahaha. I take this attitude too. Don't get too worried about anything. Thing's'll usually turn out for the best. Much to the chagrin of Michelle, my girlfriend, who seems to be perpetually beset by ill-fortune at every turn and having to work hard for everything, whereas I drift along with an air of vague optimism. So far, so good.

Congrats on the progress.
So when is the constie testing of 3.2 starting? I was under the impression that it was to be released to the public along with the new site..

I hope 'this Tuesday' was meaning today...
I think we may have a Best Game Ever on our hands. I'm also suddenly feeling the urge to donate, so I think I will.
I honestly hope this date is met, I do not think the community is willing to stomach having their hopes dashed much more. I have had a BLAST testing 3.2 and I believe it's the best version of NS thus released, and the community will really enjoy the changes.

Yes, we need a new gas for the community. There are only few servers of NS with people playing now.
But i think 3.2 release will have a limited effect. What will surely attract more attention again to NS is an announcement of a new NS game either NS:S or NS2.
If its NS:S, then that wont bring people back long-term. Only NS2 can do that.
