With the good old fashion mod for Half life is about to come out(hopefully) in a certain source engine, I think that this mod deservers a look at.
First off its About of course Natural Selection. The mod is a RTS/FPS Hybrid based around keeping together advancing up a tech tree or Expanding the Hive. There are two teams The Marines and the Aliens. Each of them has there own weakness and play style. The Marines are the joy happy trigger guys that have a commander commanding them to do tasks, set down buildings, and supply men out in the field. The Aliens are just like any Aliens you'll see in the movie Alien. They are more like a single mind(think nids like from DOW2) and how they advance is easy.
You collect points to evolve with two goals in mind get stronger and bigger and expand the hive. Now don't expect a lot of players playing Aliens most due to the amount of players who prefer to play Marines and what not. But what about the Alien team won't they not have players?
Well yes and no. You will be fighting bots on marine trainer servers but there not really players. Some times when they go to certain maps you will be able to play maps while being the aliens. This brings me to a new enemy the AI this is a killer to new players. Most of the time its hard so expect to find your self on a task that a dead man wants. This is a simple look into the game or little insight to the game. For a download/manual/ or just wana take a look for your self go to http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns/ for news and well news on NS2
