Upcoming NS2 Events - Natural Selection 2
Gorgeous is out in the wild being Gorgeous. So now, we can sit back and do nothing! Kidding of course, there are two massive events coming up for the NS2 community.

Will it be a marine costume, or full-frontal Hughnicorn? Only time will tell.
And a famous guest appearance: GABE NEWELL bellysliding around the place dressed as a gorge to present gorge plushies.
Will be awesome!

Speaking of, are you guys going to be doing something at Prime this year too? I won't be at East, don't want to miss out on all the fun.
The problem with that suggestion is that this game is developed by a small company with its own unique engine. NS2 has had a total development contribution of maybe 20 people, and from there maybe only a few people can actually implement fixes and optimizations.
The two options we have to get your suggestions on the fast track is to either work harder or to hire new programmers. Adding money onto a paycheck can be motivating, but I highly doubt that the current staff can be any more motivated than they already are, considering their rather ambitious development schedule, and also considering how they're mostly original members who implemented the entire thing in the first place.
Adding new staff would work... eventually. But since only a few people know how to actually program and use the engine, the only way to get new people trained would be to cut development time and costs for a good while. Let's say there are two people who mission-critical for engine development.
If you take one person away to help train, you'd be pushing projected deadlines rather far up the timeline. If you take both people away to help train, you'd just halt development anyway until the training is done.
My point being that right now, UWE can only spend so much much to help things along, since money isn't the issue. Their biggest limitation right now is manpower and time, not money.
Oh yeah. That UWE hey. Always blowing all their cash on advertising.
This is how much I love you all, ruining my chances with the ladies even more, for the good of NS2.
Except you, @derwalter. Your post rustled my jimmies. Consider the hair cut not for you.
Just for that, I wrote "Marketing" on a shoebox and put a £5 note in it (this is how it works).
Maybe the ladies will confuse you for the Dutch singer Milow and your chances raise.
We demand pics in any case.
You should grow your hair out.
Bitches love long hair.
+1 jups - was playing 241 for exactly 2 minutes didnt spent more playtime into it - i'll come back to the game as soon as i can read hitreg/netcode and fps has been fixed to a level what people are expecting from a competitive game.

Never gets old.
(I'm still in the US though)
Are they going to be in the store or something?
Getting around PAX East is going to be another story
