Yeah. When my friend gifted to me, it was called "Natural Selection 2 Pre-order" and I had to restart for it to turn into "Natural Selection 2." Kinda sucks because I wanted to pre-load.

Can't figure out how to download the OST. I do have the deluxe marine armor.

There was no preload because were still making updates to the game up until the last minute

I can't actually play the game, i dunno if my system specs aren't good enough, but i just get huge delay in playing. Here are my specs:

OS: XP
2.33ghz Quad Core
2gb ram
Nvidia 9600 GT

The specs are available here at the bottom, and i do achieve them more or less, but the game is unplayable, not sure why :/

I'm really sad about this, because i loved NS1, and i bought NS2 straight away after just feeling that i owed Unknown Worlds for the amount of joy they brought me over the years.

Just got done playing it. Alot of the official servers are struggling at the minute but you can still find games. Last game devolved into a 50 minute stalemate over position requiring alot of backstabs to pull attention, marines seem to be pretty strong when upgraded. Seems like there is alot of potential for team strategy with 5 of us on skype. Commanders job is pretty essential but pretty boring, definitely seems like you would need to take turns to prevent burn out because you take no part in the action what so ever. That sad tho game is mad fun, definitely looking forward to some more

Did you off most of the graphics options? I know, for me, that I get almost twice the FPS from all of them on to all of them off. Other than that, maybe your processor isn't fast enough? NS2 isn't a very multicore program, so that might be the cause of it. You might want to check the game's forums, specifically the technical support one.

I haven't played since alpha, but jumped into a game tonight and had a blast. Everything's kind of a shitshow right now because no one knows how to play, but it was fun anyway.

Yeah lots of people. I see lots of servers I can choose from with good amount of people on. It's a blast and reminds me of all the fun times I had in NS1 (especially with jetpacks :D)

The wait for so many years was worth it. Didn't play pre-release. Loving it so far

I just finished a quick game. So far, I'm really impressed. The graphics engine is really cool, the game plays well even on my several-years-old PC, and most importantly (to me, at least) - it's definitely Natural Selection 2.

Really well done, developers. I think I'll have some fun with this for a while. Here's hoping for an active competitive scene, because I really enjoy watching it, too.

Also with a Q6600, can barely sustain 60FPS. Don't know why devs care about spending time implementing SSAO and not improving FPS, or multi-threading.
