Hey guys,
I'm a huge fan of a game called Natural Selection 2, which is an FPS / RTS hybrid game, created by the studio currently working on Subnautica.
The game plays as a competitive team based strategy fps, inspired by things like Starcraft, ALIENS, Star Ship Troopers etc...
This video goes over some of the basic concepts of the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfQFykC9-v8
Up until a few months ago, you would be lucky to find a single server with people playing it, but a large resurgence of interest in the game has began to pick things up significantly, yielding about 5-10 full servers to play on at any time.
I'm basically here pleading to the reddit community to try this game out if you think it is in your possible realm of interest, as it is one of the best games I've played in a very long time, and honestly deserves to succeed on it's merit.
I have no idea whether these guys fucked their marketing budget up for launch or what, but the game is absolutely amazing, and just not incredibly well known about.
Anyways, I hope you will give it a shot.
It's a good enough game that it's potential failure seemed unjust enough to compel me to make a post promoting it anyways... whatever that is worth.
