Jabba The Hunt Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 Ok this post has nothing to do with evolution. Its about the Half Life mod called "Natural Selection". I just downloaded it (Here ) and its kick ass!!, if your on the human side theres a commander who can tell everyone what to do, ive been waiting for a game like that to come out for ages, some how its really reasuring that someone up there is watching you (yes i understand the religious referance here). The whole game has a kinda Aliens (the film) feel to it, as the aliens can walk on walls/fly/act like tanks (all different "classes"). There again there arent actually any classes in the game you evolve if your an alien, are given weapons by the commander if your a human. The number of things u can build is huge, you have to collect resources for your team!!! (which is what makes it a so called "FPS/RTS") Theres only a few critisms ill give it. 1. its got quite a long learning curve as each "class" can do different things 2. the control system for the aliens "bonus" movements is pretty hard to master. For example walking on walls is easy but is very difficult to go round corners while your walking on the walls. The second problem is with flying, i dont understand why they have done this but they have kinda merged normal walking with helecopter movements, its kinda difficult to explain but I'll have a go. When you flap you wings (one hit on the space bar to flap the wings once) you move up, then you use the directions to move, however each time you hit a direction button it increase's your velocity in that direction, the problem is that you can go really fast, so fast, in fackt, that you cant control what your doing. 3. If you have a bloody stupid commander its kinda difficult to kick him, cause it slows the game down and makes u lose time and or territory. Anyway If you like HL mods (i know some of you dont (and you call your self gamers )) I really suggest you download this one its great fun!
