Welcome welcome all you new people.  Have a nice time, and eat cake!

Hello all. I am a brand new member to these forums.  I have been following this mod for a while though, and I would love to have helped, alas, I came to late.  I thought I would pick up the NSTR and try my hand at mapping, so you might see some peliminary sshots ove on the mapping forum, but until then I'll just hang out and talk to ppl.  Talk to you all later on!

Hello and welcome to our Humble abode.

Hi, i'm Kaine, sometime people call me Ben too (is that my name... yeh, i think ) I come from Drysdale in Australia (Southern Victoria, buy an atlas) I play a few HL mods (FLF, AHL mainly), Global Operations and Quake3A. Found a post about this mod during one of my few and far between visits to PHL and thought it looked interesting. can't wait for releasage. GW from what i've seen so far. I'll be pokin' around in graphics/texturing and stuff if i have the time, so i hope to be around for a bit. Kudos all!  


STICK EM... err... never mind.

edit: m4d bad word editage, so fixed my sig.

Hey, I just registered an account on this board and heard about this mod yesterday. My name is Brad or The Wicker Man, from the awesome Iron Maiden song . I live in Quebec, Canada(for those of you who dont know geography outside of U.S. lol). Anyways, enough with the stupid intro crap I'll get to the point and say hello.

Well, this looks like the best place to say hello, so...

Hello.  

I've been watching this mod for a while now, and just now decided to sign up for the fourms.  And I'll make sure to read the FAQ's and such.

From me and hopefully all of the community here I say G'day

Hi this is my first post here but Ive been following NS from May I think, and I first saw it long before that. This mod will most likely be the best halflife mod ever and I can´t wait to play it. I am also very much interested in the upcoming russian front mod, and if you visit those forums some day you will see just how interested I am  

hmm I post now, I signed up the day I heard about NS, I hadn't even seen the thing before that, so yeah, I post this after i post everywhere else just so everyone says WELCOME! ahahahahahahahahahahaha.  welcome me please
*edit* oh and WELCOME to everyone else!*edit*

I needed a 50th post to get a new title :-P

I still have about 15 days left.

Hey ho.

First post on these forums, I've been hanging out on the Day of Defeat forums for years and been idling in IRC for just as long. Been watching this mod at a distance for some time now, but only recently developed a very keen interest in NS (Thanks a lot Creme...)

I beta test for HLRally and I am looking forward to NS just as much.

I am currently doing a multimedia course and I have a lot of knowledge of graphic design and 2D art.

I believe thats about it.


Look out for me on irc in: #dod as a peon, #hlrally as an op (OBEY THE RULES ######) and #ns as a lowly nobody

EDIT: Oh and I'm planning an NS map, here's hoping I find the time to make it

Hi all!!!!!!!!!

i just decided to sign on as a forum goer here as some other HL mods are starting to get boring...

before i go on, i must say that the NS team has done a f***ing brilliant job...!!

...i can't wait for it ... arrrghhhhhhh...can't...wait...

-clicks back to readyroom.org's main page to see 15 screenshots again and again-

Well... Hey all im a new forumer round here and decded to register considering that i got nothing else to do. And ive als been waiting in suspense everyday wondering if this would finally be the day the mod would be released. (Im completely tired of d/ling new mods which i play for bout 2 hours then dump, im bored of Starcraft, Diablo 2, and Tribes 2, and the usual tormening of th public in GTA 3 is fun every now and then it does get repettative.)

GTA3/AvP2/JK2 are the main games that help sustain and hold back my deep hunger for NS....  damn it!  :3

@_@

-clicks to the media section again, and stares, salivating for 45 mins straight-

AAAaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!... sore eyesssss!!! sore eyes!!! ~rubs~

o_o  -stares on-

You sir, need StepMania! Not only is it a spiffy way to pass the time, but assign the directions to W,A,D,S and you can literally practice dodging in FPS style!

Hell, asign player 2's controls to the Arrow keys and do double mode! Practice becomming ambidextrous!

Work yourself up in practice until you can beat the F-Zero X song on this page: http://www.ddrmaniax.net/dwi_index.php?mix=bemaniruler

Here's the link to get the actual game: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/stepman....ownload (Choose a server and it'll download)

Here's the link for songs for the game: http://www.ddrmaniax.net/ (The SimFile section)

There, have fun all. Thanks to JediYoshi for enlightening me to this spiffy DDR game! =D

Hiya all, as you can probably see by my postcount I'm new to the NS forums - I was having a look at the new Tour of Duty mod when I saw someone mention (praisingly) Natural Selection.. So I checked a few websites and eventually found the official URL. What can I say? I'm determined that this game may infact change the way we see FPS games, especially the Teamwork factor.

Just like to say good job so far to the Devs, and playtesters.. I know how hard it can be to work on an extremly large project, and the pressures of releasing on time etc.

Past few months I have been doing a gaming league project covering some of the best fps games, and it was successful to say the least. (almost 6,000 callsigns and 550+ teams signed up). im now working on another gaming league, dedicated to larger scale games such as JK2, CS, DOD and now NS.

It's still in the works, but now after reading up on NS I am discussing features that would help make the league a success.. So suggestions are always a warm welcome!

Good to see you all,

Rafe

Welcome Rafe, nice to see someone literate and posting in the correct place. All you new people, be sure to check out the NS IRC channel too, #naturalselection on gamesnet. Theres a link on www.readyroom.org if you would like to use a java IRC client.

Oh yes, and I would point you to talk to Parse_Error, who is currently developing an integrated Clan listing and NS ladder system.

Welcome again.

Thanks for the reply, I will look into talking to Parse about this, see what happens

www.bqleagues.com , www.bqlforums.com , www.battle-quest.net , www.battle-quest.com and www.bq-forums.com were some of the urls of the past league, incase you wanted to look at the work.

The new league is set to be far superior to BQL, under the name of StarLance Gaming Leagues (www.starlance.com).

However its not the looks of the league, or the scripts, it is the leadership.. and that is truly hard to find, especially a devoted team of admins who can do the job.

soon we will all be the unlucky victims of..

You are #/350 in line

remaning time 35mins ( 35=3hours to them)

I'd be happy to just be in line to get NS...

Right now we're waiting... indefinatly...

Wasn't iformed about a line...

NS won't just be on FP, as we have already discussed many times.  MonsE has plenty of mirrors lined up for the release.

I don't think hes saying that FP will be the only place to download it - I think he means that most download areas will be low on bandwidth after the initial release, and hes just saying FP tends to be seriously slow with its ques  

If I was a high speed connection I would be more than willing to put it on my dedicated server to help aid the release.

Howdy. Me is new around here.

Im in Scotland, UK and found out about the mod through BY. (UK g.s.p..), anyhow it is looking seriously impressive. Nice change from the usual by the look of things.

btw, are you going to release NS only through downloads or will it be available on magazine coverdiscs , PC gamer etc..?

I only ask because 80 megs or whatever is gonna take a loooong time if you're a 56k peasant like myself...

Howdy Hamster (you don't really thought anyone would write your name, right?)

Welcome to the Forums, read all the FAQs and remember:
It's done when it's done!

I think it's a question of popularity if NS gets on Cover-CDs or not. The first release is probably not on a CD unless Flayra & Co. have VERY good contacts... but later versions will surely make their way into Magazins I think...

Ello, I'm new to these forums, but I've followed Natural Selection for a month or two now.. so I know some stuff and won't see me asking when it's gonna release  

I'm from California, but I'm movin' soon up to Idaho (Argh).. anyways, I heard of this mod in PHL when they posted some sweet lovin' pics

Hopefully I'll get to know you guys and have fun playin with yas when it comes out..  

Welcome Longdale, It's always good to see new members

Be warned that the "I have been following this mod for ages, but only just decided to join" has been used a bit to regularly recently. However, I'm sure that this time it's true

Anyway, if you have been around for a while there is no need to warn you to read the FAQ's and such like.

Hope to see you become a good and active member of the NS community

LoL thnx.. I don't lie too much  

Welcome everyone that is new!  Eat cake!  And don't forget to joint us in IRC in #naturalselection on gamesnet!

of course, for the next day or two, idle in #xfr, we're winning a server!

Hi, Hamster and Longdale... Nice name, there.
(Talking to Hamster).
lol

Hello all.Thanks for the welcome.

I won't pretend to have been following the progress of NS for ages. Hardly heard about it till the day I signed up here. I seem to remember a preview in PC gamer but thats about it.

Just followed a link posted in BY by HotSoup (well played btw..), liked the look of it and signed up on the spot.

Still,at least I managed to read the FAQ and NOT post "The Question Which Shall Not Be Spoken"..

Well, not here anyhow..

Anyway, I think I'll attempt a go at mapping. Got the NSTR, just started teaching myself worldcraft (Day 1- the empty square room...).but I have a bit of art training and I like to think of myself as a quick learner, so I might have something to show y'all in, say a year..

If not, it should be an interesting/ horrendously frustrating learning experience for me..

Anyhow, I look forward to loitering around here a fair bit..

Yes, welcome. Another Blueyonder person to add to the ranks I see? Anyhow, the best bet for all you 56K'rs out there is to ask a friend with a CD writer and Broadband to download it for you, or try a LAN cafe.

At least now I've joined up here it will give me somewhere to hang out next time the BY webby falls over and dies...

You BY peeps know what I mean...:E

hehe /me is new also

I have been watching this mod sorta regularly and finaly decided to actualy sign up and such

oh well, 'ello

New to forums.  So HEY EVERYBODY!
Like most new guys, I've been following NS for about a month or two and just now decided to join in the conversations.  Alien Names topic dragged me in!

Well only time will tell if I'll become a regular or not here but I'll be around for now.

Wat up Cypher X. Once again I'll give ya mad props on your pwning sig.
