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."

Go to that site for the update news, the NS download, and other useful information.

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.

There is a marine training program for NS. I actually ran through it and it covered everything pretty well. Kinda scary too when you see the onos.

It will have to become an official mod first.

^ Rofl. If you know anything about the NS community, these are songs done by the clan [FFT]. They rock, and I know Dwopple has heard one or two of them. "If I had a million res nodes" and "Lockdown" are two of the more popular ones. Some other good songs are "Gorges just wanna have fun", "Gorgie Girl" and "Not leet". I personally think Dwopple sings the "not leet" one.:D

If you do listen to some of them, don't pay attention to the music or the horrible voices, listen to what they say. It's hilarious if you know what they're talking about.:lol:

[Blizzard]

Those songs all look retarded.:P

And speaking of Dwopple, I haven't talked to him in ages.:(

[Dwopple]

[Blizzard]
