Man, this was the centre of a lot of my nightmares when I was younger.

It's wholesome. Where is justice in the world?

It's when they go through the pictures of Jet Li's victims that gets me every time. It's just him with different wigs. The one with dreadlocks is hilarious.

I genuinely love this movie. Very entertaining. Soundtrack isn't half bad either.

Brilliant! Another thing they never got around to in NS2 that they had in NS1. Doors, lifts, weldable components that do things.

Yeah, the modding community rallied around both versions. The NS community is really dedicated. I admit to stopping playing NS2 when they made the announcement, have they allowed the community to keep it going in any form?

Surely they would approve of some community crowdfunding? Perhaps the original creators but not the parent company is it is now, if the recent issues around Subnautica are to be believed. NS belongs to the community.

I feel the same way - both take the top spot as my all-time best games.

I will say - It was a mistake building their own game engine for NS2. I realise options were limited but they bit off more than they could chew and that came out in the launch and first 3 years or so, as you say. Yeah the co-op and commander concept was both what made it awesome and contributed to its downfall. They tried to make it easier by making it so Gorges became a support role rather than critical to the alien comm but was too little, too late.

I would 100% back a crowdunded NS3, as I did with NS2. The eSports scene is far more mature now, it could work.

The very same!

Me too! Did in person LAN events and managed servers for Multiplay. No game will ever come close to the engaged community. Fusion X was my clan from start to end.

Natural Selection and then Natural Selection 2 - no games or communities like it. Before there time both of them and very much under appreciated. Felt like NS2 never really found it's rhythm but Unknown World kept it going longer than most games.
