<div class="IPBDescription">That others don't....</div>Anyone realize that Natural Selection is just about the only Half-Life mod out there that doesn't attempt to cash in on the realism or World War II genre? I mean, I'm a daily visitor to Plant Half-Life each day and all I see is crap about police mods, army mods, etc. It's getting quite boring and I for one am sick and tired of everyone trying to clone Counter-Strike.
I'm glad Natural Selection digressed from this overused realism crap and tried something original for once. Props to you guys - seriously.
Thanks for all the flames saying I don't know a thing. But most of the non-realism mods mentioned aren't even played online so how could I know? All I see on PHL is stuff about realism. Maybe I'm just sick of seeing yet another AK or MP5 variant.

bye the way no conection with gundam serires or anima
your a bounty hunter with a big robot out for pointless violence yay
Hl paintball also.
hell yes
However, all the mods that do pop up and die tend to saturate the mod scene with news and screenshots of the same old modern weapons and ww2 mods, burying the more originals mods under all that glut.
(Though isn't this a light way of flaming Seraphic8X? Then why I am I adding to this you ask.. I'm just shallow, I move with the crowd.. <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->)
No matter how many more polygons you put in or some new variant takes its place, it's still the same.
Then these mods tend to get the most press because, since they're not actually taking time in designing their own material, they can just pump out more models of those guns, drowning out any press more original mods generate.
Then they have the nerve to just drop dead when they release no one will really play their mod, or that they could never create the mod in the first place.
It's nice to be flamed saying that "I'm inexperienced and don't know ####". But I guess I'm just sick of seeing an AK or MP5 variant for the 1000th time.

Existence was cool too...
NS > ALL
See the RC9 Screenshots if you dont believe me.....
Yeah yeah w00t! Best, right after NS.
But i dont think it will ever come out, for a long long time.
On the other hand while many people dont like realism mods that doesnt mean they all share the same taste in unrealistic mods and so the fans are spread out among the unrealistic mods. Obviously they then get less attention.
Sadly, the best ones (Trainhunters and OSJB) have No community!
