Natural Selection

[t3h_l33t_p3ngu1n]

This will be the official Natural Selection topic. It will stop threads from sprouting up everywhere and decrease the spam like "OMFG NS R0X0R5 TEH B1G 111!!!"

An overview from http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns/

"Natural Selection blends first-person combat with real-time strategy. It features intense 'marines vs. aliens' teamplay, where one marine can become Commander. The Commander plays from a top-down perspective and leads live players.

The aliens can evolve upgrades like "Cloaking" and "Scent of Fear", and can change lifeforms to run on walls, fly, and even devour marines whole.

NS has atmospheric indoor sci-fi environments full of steam and smoke, and features custom orchestral music from the award-winning Jeremy Soule.

It is a freely-available Half-life modification, and since its release in October of 2002, has had over 2 million downloads, and has 10,000 unique players every day."

This site helped me a little for strategies and such. Game FAQs
Natural Selection will most likely be recreated with source sometime in the future.
