I really want to like this game, and be happy that I bought it, but I haven't seen a game with this many server finding issues in ten fucking years.

Is it so hard for them to make like a history tab or something for servers.

Natural Selection 2 is on flash sale on steam for 60% off, so only 9.99. I just grabbed a copy.

Not very well optimized, I can't even stream it ):

I like being on the mic and pretending I'm a marine bwahah

If team based FPS games with RTS-twist are your thing, now is your chance. One of the best FPS games ever.

Played about 10 hours in 72. Fun game, very interesting though there is a fair curve.

I have to say that I think the reviews should have been much harsher. It feels a bit half-baked at this time. My new comp running a 640 LE has some difficulties staying at a good frame rate. That's surprising for game that frankly could be a bit prettier. That said pretty good so far. By in large there haven't been any idiots over comm.

So far i love this game. Its damn hard to get into, but if more people show their love for it a new genre could emerge from this.

I am destroying all these rookies with my NS1 skillz. Way easier to win by playing FPS than commanding a team of rookies.

Aw man I haven't watched your stream in a year. It was so witty last time I watched it, I loved the people commenting in chat as well, they were hilarious

. I'm going to keep tabs next time you stream...Maybe I'll even play against you on the server you join!!

All hail the leaning tower of ...Torte de lini?? Man I even forgot the catchphrase.

The sale makes a convincing case; but is there and active TL community playing this? It looks fun but I don't think I'd touch it unless I had some people to play it with, looks like it's a game that could be ruined by non-cooperative or griefing teammate.

Oh and the game looks pretty graphically intensive, does the game support Crossfire? Oh and the minimum processor on the steam page says duo core 2.6GHz, how would a 2.8 GH Quad core run this?

0.2ghz slower?

NS2 is pretty unoptimized, it's going to run rather sluggishly.

I have CF'd 6850's and run the game fine. 99% of games are filled with people with mics. I've yet to have a silent team or anything even close. Everyone is always strategizing outloud and making callouts of what's going on and where. Overall a very good game.

I've had silent teams, but I've never seen a person being stupid just for the fun of it. Honestly there's not much you can do to do that, there's no friendly fire (from teammates). Worst thing you can do is take an exoskeleton or onos that the commander built and die outright. Though that's usually from inexperience and not malice.

Personally I've had a lot of fun and not too many bad experiences. I much prefer the FPS part of the game though.

I assume with a shitty core 2 duo I can't run this?
