Why dont you guys "team up" whit other Devs and get some cross-game easter eggs and stuff.
On the top of my mind, RIOTs <a href="https://signup.leagueoflegends.com/?ref=4c4eeed5c2bfb" target="_blank">League of Legends</a>, would love to play any of the Kharaa "champs" :)

But shouldn't he also be able to put up maybe 3 Hydras?
On that note, Valve, thanks in part to the development and support for TF2, have a pretty big and loyal community that UWE really should look into targetting. Promoting NS2 through TF2 would be a logical route - I'm sure the demographics of TF2 players would be pretty ideal in this case. I.e. PC gamers into FPS, already on Steam, enjoying a different/original but high quality style of FPS game, TF2 being a "fun" game that can almost advertise other games without changing gameplay thanks to it's accessories system, etc etc.
Could have NS badges, hats, weapon-taunts, voice-taunts, etc etc, within TF2 for those who've pre-ordered and who buy NS2 before a certain time/date. Similar to what Team 17 have just done for Worms Reloaded with the Worms Soldier hat and Worms Soldier Grenade (I know a few people who ended up buying the new Worms because of that TF2 promotion - it sometimes gives that little bit of an incentive needed to get the wallet out).
Would Valve even charge a fee for this? It'd be in their own interests surely, as they get commission from sales of NS2 through Steam. And it's not like TF2 players will mind since it'll just add more hats and other "useless" accessories that suprisingly many people obsess over.
I've read people in the steam forums obsess over getting Worms: Reloaded only to have every hat in TF2, so this could be a nice way to get people to buy Natural Selection 2.
Seems like exploitation of a fan boy community though. But I'm cool with that :D

Well they are selling the game and earning money from it through steam so I doubt they will be taking an extra fee, they are as we all know already working on putting more hats and items in the game anyway.
Another idea, make a deal whit blizzard and get a kharaa critter in wow/sc2/diablo :)

Blizzard would be awsome if they didn't already have a small city of resident modelers. An Onos Mount or a Fade as a pet......hmmmm, i supose it would be possible but i am sure with the new expansion comming out for wow,now would be a good time to inquire about it.
Pimp my Gorge!
