I loved the first one and the second one looks just as good.

Wow, if you pre-order they'll give you eternal gratitude. Every gratitude I've ever gotten has ran out.
Looks pretty cool, I like a humans vs. aliens game where the aliens aren't just green humans.

I've played for maybe a year now. Took a break but got back into it like right before they made the announcement. I think I came a little =P

Looks pretty promising.

Holy Zombie Jesus, if I get NS2 then I will never play against Froggeh....

This is a very impressive looking game coming from just 4 people.

chrisinajar · « **Reply #13 on:** June 15, 2009, 04:45:32 pm »

The spread of the alien stuff is also really interesting, programatically...

Natural Selection 2: Dynamic Infestation Video

This is one of the reasons they switched to their own engine, instead of sticking with source.

All the models except the female marine are from ns1. However the teaser trailer that is in my first post is all in engine.

Supernaut · « **Reply #16 on:** June 16, 2009, 04:02:50 am »

Wow that infestation thing is really cool, I like when people make cool engines that do the abnormal things. Like Geomod or something, making tunnels and such.

chrisinajar · « **Reply #17 on:** June 16, 2009, 09:36:40 pm »

tunnelling is awesome.. Red Faction FTW!

We are hard at work getting our content tools (level editor, cinematic editor, model viewer and builder) shippable so we can give them out to everyone that pre-ordered Natural Selection 2. We want to give you guys an early peek at our technology so you can get up to speed with the tools and so you're ready to mod the heck out of NS2 when it's released. We're also hoping to get lots of feedback so we can make sure the tools are useful, intuitive and pleasant to use.

Along with these tools, we're planning on releasing our environment artwork (textures and models) and NS2 mapping guidelines so the community can start making maps. We did this a looong time ago with the NS Technology Release and it worked out fantastically. Of the 20 maps that ended up in NS1, well over half were from the community! Right now we're only giving out this stuff to those that pre-ordered (the NSTR was free for everyone) but we hope to give out the NS2 tools for free to everyone in the future.

Definitely going to attempt to make a ns2 map.

edit: I downloaded the original nstr a long time ago thinking it was a full mod, when it was just a map with a command chair in it, a real WTF moment.

Supernaut · « **Reply #19 on:** June 24, 2009, 11:27:49 pm »

It looks good, if so I will get it and you will probably kick ever ones ass Froggeh. Hopefully your on my team lol.

Bobby's Pipes · « **Reply #20 on:** June 25, 2009, 07:06:45 am »

I may get it. Maybe. But $20 is a lot of bones to shell out. Hopefully they'll have a demo.

Trazgo · « **Reply #21 on:** June 26, 2009, 07:03:54 am »

I loved NS so I'd get it once I'm bored with TF2.

chrisinajar · « **Reply #23 on:** July 09, 2009, 04:42:40 pm »

So I think that we should get a SHENS NS2 server once the game is out. I know I plan on playing it quite a bit... Let shenanigan's house of maggotry be known across all games! Mwahahahaha!

Anyone else think it's a good idea / will help pay for it?

Bobby's Pipes · « **Reply #24 on:** July 10, 2009, 11:39:42 am »

Let's see how well the game does first, Chris. Then I'll make a decision.
