    MonsE disappears under a huge final rush of aliens, bile bombs, umbra clouds, and fangs.

    Hmmm, where would this mine look the best? It would clash with the Command Console, but the walls are already so <i>busy</i> in here...

    A split second before DevilDog is killed. You can see the spark off his armor from a flier's spikes. These Marines were trying to siege cannon a hive base to hell...

    The troops fan out, sweeping past an alien resource gatherer on NS_Caged.

    Everyone locks and loads, prior to assaulting an alien controlled area on NS_Caged.

    Don't hate me because I'm beautiful...
  • MonsieurEvilMonsieurEvil Join Date: 2002-01-22 Member: 4Members, Retired Developer, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Let's see. Aliens in front and behind, and little old me right here in the middle. Guess it's time to crouch down, bend over and kiss my ### goodbye!

    Two marines in shielded power armor make their way into a rare open area on NS_Caged. That's right, I said shielded power armor.

    All the better to eat your base with, my dear...

    Manah reinforces into the NS_Bast Marine spawn. And wishes he was still a ghost.

    Love the first one, pure mayhem! The set of marines all peeking down the hall while getting ready to attack just looks cool. And yes, do love me cause I am beautiful!

    Nice, cant wait. Keep up the good picture taking and mod making. (that could be a song.....hmmmm.....)

    Lovely shots. The new armor looks really spiffy. Does it shine when you move or what?
  • Us3rUs3r Join Date: 2002-03-29 Member: 360Members
    Yes, the first one is great, shows the true insanity of NS. Marine shots are always great, watching you PTers strategize your victories is great. By the way, the mine looks great <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    (Hmm, I've said great a lot in this post, I guess it reflects the mod or something <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->)
  • JediYoshiJediYoshi The Cupcake Boss Join Date: 2002-05-27 Member: 674Members
    Well by now, I'm not suprised anymore about how good the screeens look. At least i learned about the power armour. Everything looks great and I don't see how you guys made a new RC that fast <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Damn, now my keyboard is soaked in drool. Looks great as always.
    One rc after another, keep it at this pace and we will see release in no time.

    Best ... screenshots ... ever!

    I can't even enjoy War3 because I'm so anxious for NS.  <!--emo&:tiny:--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tiny.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':tiny:'><!--endemo-->
  • UnknownUnknown Join Date: 2002-06-12 Member: 759Members
    Im shaking like a leaf due to excitment (sp?).  Those 2 marines in the power shield armor look like Storm Troopers.
  • Silver_FoxSilver_Fox Spammer Join Date: 2002-01-24 Member: 34Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    heh, yes, I love the first one as well ...

    I'm sure I had a little ... Chuckle ... at the end of that.

    Here i could simply express my most delicate and detailed thought about these remarkle lovely screenshots, but i will will not stray away and will keep it short and descriptive.
    I think the best way to describe my most appriciate feelings for this would be by using one single word to describe it all.

    <b>Wow!</b>

    I already know the answer (STC) but how does power armor work, do u research it and the everyone has it, or do u research it and then hand it out?
  • TiCKTiCK Join Date: 2002-05-30 Member: 708Members
    It would be neat if aliens could get little resource boosts if they continued to melee attack a fallen marine, until the marine went into specmode, waiting to respawn.

    It would make it look like the aliens are eating the marine's body for nourishment.  <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    But anyways, please release soon.  <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    Ideas forum tick, and this has been beaten to death already.

    What? no blurred out images for us to slave over till next week?

    SO how was the balance in this game? Did it feel right?
  • GwahirGwahir Join Date: 2002-04-24 Member: 513Members, Constellation
    ah, so it stores data even if you disconnect, interesting

    but as for the armor, that one close up (if it's the same thing) looks like a glow effect with particles falling off, is that correct?
  • MonsieurEvilMonsieurEvil Join Date: 2002-01-22 Member: 4Members, Retired Developer, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Yes, you are correct, Gwahir. It is not a model (sorry, we need to release this mod before I retire), it is a variation on the glow effect with some added twists.

    X, you research it, and your team gets it all at once. It has special... powers. Don't worry, you won't see it in 9 out of 10 games, as it is at the very tip top of the tech tree.

    The balance felt very, very good Legion. We had a lot of great games and few problems. We are very close.
