Juegazo, te toma un montón aprender a ser incluso mediamente no-manco, pero vale la pena (sigo siendo un manco).
La comunidad de latinoamérica es muy activa y casi todos los días salen partidas
La mejor comunidad para un FPS/RTS en Sudamérica.
Para los que dudan en comprarlo pensando que no van a encontrar con quién jugar o que los van a bardear por no saber las mecánicas. Nada que ver, acá hay gente jugando seguido y la buena onda es increíble.
Cero toxicidad. Si recién arrancás, siempre hay alguien dispuesto a tenerte paciencia y enseñarte a moverte por el mapa. Es un juego que depende 100% de usar el micrófono y laburar en equipo, y la comunidad sudamericana lo hace súper divertido y llevadero. No le tengan miedo a la curva de aprendizaje, anímense que siempre hay lugar para uno más en el server para pasar el rato.
Soy horrible, pero es alto jueguito.
for some reson when i try to press play it will not work can someone help me?
游戏是好游戏，但社区国服遗老闹麻了，社区服游戏环境就是被遗老搞坏。被遗老骂分奴也该受着呗。圈子不大还能有神人，见不得黄金段位的比你偶像紫裤衩杀的多是吧
De los mejores juegos competitivos, que mezcla cosas de FPS (90%) y RTS (10%).
Y ni hablar de la comunidad de sudamérica que hace que el juego sea más disfrutable, amigable y a la vez competitivo.
Don't bother with this game. The people who play it are god awful. Look for the review by Opti from December 2025-ish. It's full of sick weirdo scumbags (and scammers) and is just not a good one to pick up. If you asked me 10 years ago, I'd still think this game is the ish. But now it's a waste of energy.
игра детства
one of few rare gems on steam
hard af but the team strategy, unique mechanics, and just cool ♥♥♥♥ makes the game so much fun
худшая покупка в жизни только из-за того, что роскомпозор ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ и играть без впна невозможно на серверах. Да и сервера единственные амиликанские с ебейшим пингом

Игра супер. Очень динамичный шутер с элементами стратегии, где надо ДУМАТЬ. Искренне не понимаю, почему в ней так мало онлайна
Natural Selection 2 feels like a true upgrade from the original Natural Selection — refining what worked while preserving the core identity that made it so distinct in the first place.
What sets Natural Selection apart from most multiplayer shooters is its bold blend of FPS and RTS mechanics. One player commands from above, managing resources and structures, while the rest fight on the ground in first-person combat. It’s a genre hybrid that very few games have attempted — and even fewer have executed successfully.
Natural Selection 2 tweaks and modernizes many aspects of the original formula. The visuals are sharper, the mechanics feel tighter, and the pacing is more polished. Yet it never abandons the asymmetric design that makes it special: Marines relying on technology and coordination versus Aliens evolving into increasingly powerful lifeforms.
Matches can feel incredibly dynamic. Early-game skirmishes transition into high-stakes mid-game pushes, and if both teams are competent, late-game clashes become tense and strategic. Communication and teamwork aren’t optional — they’re essential.
That said, the learning curve can be steep. Understanding the economy, tech paths, and commander role takes time. It’s not a casual jump-in-and-dominate experience. But for players willing to invest that time, the payoff is rewarding.
Natural Selection 2 stands out because it dares to blend genres in a way most developers avoid. It’s not just a shooter, and it’s not just a strategy game — it’s both.
If you appreciate innovative multiplayer design and enjoy games that reward coordination and tactical thinking, I absolutely recommend it.
yep
This game started as a mod for half life 1 as Natural Selection 1, and grew into this very robust standalone that can be quite the engaging fusion of RTS and FPS in a very team oriented experience with a lot of diverse strategies and unique ways to play between the marines and the aliens.
Despite the glowing endorsement however, I must also say that this game is an artifact now, not an active experience. If you ever want to actually play it as intended, you need to find a community elsewhere planning on diving into it together, hosting a closed private server, because there is no consistent active quality control or moderation invested in this title anymore.
What it is however, is a landmark in the beautiful progression of refinement and development that eventually lead to subnautica, and if you watch the history of the developers influence from their inspiration from xen in half life into the concepts that formed natural selection, the path you can trace is a fascinating one. That is not really relevant to this game specifically however.
What IS relevant, is that if the developers made this title free to play, and designated someone to go around and get different twitch streamers to host community nights of the game, and included a system of premium cosmetics to still earn some side income to keep the process an even break, then it could see a resurgence of engagement that could be a fun little burst of celebration of a classic series many people don't truly know the depths of how influential it's development was on so many fronts.
This could be done in tandem with the announcement of the development of a potential future game:
[b] NATURAL SELECTION: HAZARD SQUAD [/b]
the idea is to tie in a squad based repeatable scenario multiplayer focused (with single player + bots capacity) where a specialized (and highly customizable) squad of elite mercenaries is sent to various locations throughout the galaxy to deal with hostile alien problems.
This could also be tied into the subnautica universe to draw in the much larger crowd familiar with the subnautica games, and also give nods to the history of influence throughout unknown worlds development over the many years.
I have a LOT more i could say on the concept in great detail privately to the developers if interested, but the general formula would be:
squads of 1 - 6 players in PvE experiences (with unfilled slots occupied by support robots, not human avi's) where they are dropped into an area to quell various out of control local invasive alien life forms
I have an excessive amount of environments and scenarios in specific, but the core appeal is the ability to customize your mercenary while also being able to que for public lobbies or make pre-mades with friends, while also having a decent capacity to go it alone with a squad of all robots if you really wanted too.
Completed missions would result in payouts, and these payouts can be used to buy better equipment that makes excursions more likely to succeed for the cost of investment and potential loss of the equipment if not taken back aboard the players ship
The "highest difficulty" missions will include "evolved hostiles" as a modifier, meaning that after the first few minutes of the start of a higher reward higher difficulty mission, players can solo que into the "invasive species" que or whatever you wanna call it, and join ongoing hard mode missions stealthily as evolved hunters.
This gives something for the "way too good at video games" crowd who don't play cooperatively with others something to do, while also making the high payout high risk missions actually terrifying and dangerous because at any point until completion they could encounter human played highly dangerous and crafty hostile entities.
There are supporting systems to incentivize those ques as well I have in mind and a whole bunch of active limited time alerts, and live events and blah blah blah along with a Natural Selection 3 segway etc etc
Look i'm just lousy with ideas and ways to make it all happen bit by bit, budget by budget, quarter by quarter, just DM me for my endless stream of gold, I live in an eternal vortex of clear ideas and paths and nowhere to direct it, I'm going insane not having an outlet for even one percent of my capacity and potential and my cursed frail human body is so exceptionally incapable of doing anything beyond writing and talking, please someone save me from this prison of inaction and mundanity.
Ahem, anywho, Natural Selection 2, be an alien and crawl through vents and evolve with resources, or be a marine and stand around terrified, waiting for some invisible monster to bite your head off, while getting paid i imagine is like.. $5.00 an hour or something, wishing you had scored higher on the federation navy exams. Or you can try being a commander, and get blamed entirely for every small problem or shortcoming while your desperately trying to recall how RTS's function since it's been a decade or more since you played starcraft that one weekend.
Honestly thoe, the wild stories this game tells each time you play and the sheer chaos of it all when you actually have a populated server and nobody is cheating or some sort of super soldier god gamer who is three full teams on their own, can be really really memorable just as it exists now. You just need to do some work to put together a planned group to play it since, the likelyhood of finding a populated server without bots is minimal, and even more minimal that the quality will be worth the effort if you do.
And thanks for the wonderful memories unknown worlds <3 keep being awesome and creative as usual
Can't believe I have yet to review this. This game is a FANTASTIC example of how to make a RTS mixed with FPS.
Describing it is a waste of time. Find a community. Play.
sure why not...
Better than most modern day games.
absolute peak
Игра - бомба. Игре не хватило медиа ресурса, провести какой-нибудь турнир и она бы обрела заслуженную любовь масс. Но к сожалению она предана забвенью.
Задумка - пушка, реализация - пушка.
too hot kharaa monsters, i keep cuming all over the screen
Awesome party game
It's not as dead as you think.
Keep in mind, NS2 is generally a 10v10 game, with an "extra large" mode of 15v15 (crazy, i know). so even to this day you still have 2-4 servers at all times that are populated. And even if you join a 10-player server, this is game is back from an era when multiplayer games were FUTURE PROOFED, so you have bots to fill in the few extra slots.
The aliens feel like a mix of Aliens Xenomorphs and Starcraft Zerg and have the iconic original AvP wall crawl, but the camera doesn't shift like in that so it kind of feels like you are walking with noclip (wall hack cheat from half life 1), and honestly feel a bit clunky to play, but that might just be me sucking at them. There are plenty of players that seem to be good with them, given the number of times i lost to them.
The game also has a commander role, which is something. There are tutorials for all of these roles (marine commander/soldier, alien commander/soldier) and frankly its not that difficult thanks to the map being relatively small.
overall still recommend it if you are curious. i won't say i enjoy playing the aliens, but i love playing the marines.
very very VERY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fun game but its old to the point that you will get yelled at and have no idea why cause, the community is only die hard fans now
Please, revive this game :'(
most goated game of all time. but yea every game from this era has an insane asylum of gamers who never stopped playing the whole time and their lives got worse, and worse, and they haunt the servers like a spectre.
what stops me from casually playing is the premium queue system where you have to manually refresh til that empties then you can join normal queue
한글버전이 있으면 더욱더 강추.
Incredible game, I wish they make a third
great
For the low low price of 5 bucks, you get an extremely unique asymmetrical shooter with 3 main ways to play: Boots-on-the-ground Shoot & Be Loud Marine, Stealthy creature-of-the-dark Alien, and the people playing an RTS guiding the other two playstyles. Sure, it's a touch difficult to get into (most of the people playing have BEEN playing), but once you get into it.. it's an enjoyable game! Community is friendly, the graphics are dated but hold up, and it's technically in the same universe as Subnautica!
Good fun in a cool setting.
Es del mismo universo de Subnautica,cronologicamente va despues el virus de los monstruos de NS2 es el virus de subnautica,en muchos mapas puedes ver simbolos de alterra y hasta un billete para la aurora XDDD
10/10 game
Steps to Victory:
1) Mute everybody
2) Don't open map under any circumstance
3) Save res, use it to invest in crypto
4) Axe the hive
5) Blame the Comm!!! (Most important step)
6) Win, enjoy your new elo
This game has been slowly losing players over the years and it's because the players are extremely toxic. The super serious ranking system should be removed and so should conceding a game. I have seen time after time where this community pushes out new players with just straight slurs, they judge every little decision you make, they belittle anyone who doesn't do exactly what is being told, it is horrible.
I am really surprised the devs didn't remove voice chat and probably text chat and just make a better ping / voice emote system because people don't communicate anything useful anyways and just slander eachother. This is such a fun game but MAN! these players just ruin any fun with how serious they take every little thing. The game could have a casual ranking system like TF2 but honestly this game can't handle a serious ranking system because people turn feral.
I love the game, I really do... but this is just not fun, imagine playing a board game or cards and the second someone starts to lose they flip the table and start cursing at you, that is what this community is. Even with only... 120 players MAX they still treat people like crap? You would think they would try and preserve new players and grow the community but man oh man.
Maybe wait for AI to progress and then enjoy this one with AI instead.
Bloody Excellent
This game is amazing and I miss it, please play it more,
10/10 amazing, such wow, many cool, more awesome,
anyone feel free to dm me if you want to play NS2.

Natural Selection 2 is a bold and uncompromising multiplayer experience developed by Unknown Worlds Entertainment and published by Unknown Worlds Entertainment alongside KRAFTON, Inc., standing as one of the most distinctive genre hybrids ever released on Steam. Blending first-person shooter mechanics with real-time strategy systems, the game demands not only mechanical skill but also strategic awareness, teamwork, and communication. It is not content to offer quick gratification or solitary heroics; instead, it thrives on coordinated play and long-term decision-making, creating matches that feel dynamic, tense, and deeply earned.
At the heart of Natural Selection 2 is its asymmetrical design, pitting two radically different factions against each other: the human Marines and the alien Kharaa. Both teams share the same ultimate objective—destroy the enemy’s command structure—but the paths they take to reach that goal are fundamentally different. Marines are grounded in conventional shooter logic, relying on firearms, armor, technology upgrades, and defensive structures. Their strength lies in discipline, positioning, and maintaining infrastructure such as power nodes and supply routes. The Kharaa, by contrast, are fluid, organic, and aggressively adaptive, using speed, verticality, and evolving lifeforms to overwhelm opponents through ambush and attrition rather than brute firepower.
What elevates Natural Selection 2 beyond typical team shooters is the commander role. One player on each team steps out of the FPS perspective and into a top-down strategic view, effectively playing an RTS layered on top of the shooter match. Commanders are responsible for expanding territory, managing resources, researching upgrades, and deploying structures or abilities in real time. Their decisions shape the flow of the entire match, influencing where battles occur, how well equipped the team is, and whether momentum can be sustained or reversed. Importantly, this system never renders frontline players passive; even the best commander is powerless without effective execution from the team on the ground.
Matches unfold across large, interconnected maps where map control is as important as kill counts. Resource nodes fuel expansion and technology, meaning every skirmish has strategic implications beyond immediate survival. For Marines, holding territory means keeping power online and protecting fragile structures. For the Kharaa, spreading infestation is both a tactical and psychological tool, altering movement options and signaling growing alien dominance. This constant push and pull ensures that matches rarely stagnate, with the battlefield evolving as teams gain or lose control.
The alien faction in particular showcases the game’s depth. As players accumulate resources, they can evolve into increasingly powerful lifeforms, each with distinct abilities and playstyles. Early-game skirmishers give way to heavier, more specialized roles that can disrupt marine formations or dismantle fortifications. This evolutionary system reinforces the alien theme while introducing meaningful strategic decisions about when to save resources, when to risk an evolution, and how to coordinate with teammates for maximum impact.
Natural Selection 2 is unapologetically demanding. The learning curve is steep, especially for new players unfamiliar with either RTS concepts or highly coordinated shooters. Success depends heavily on communication, map awareness, and understanding faction-specific mechanics. Public matches can feel intimidating at first, particularly when veteran players execute strategies with ruthless efficiency. However, for those willing to invest the time, the payoff is substantial. Few multiplayer games offer the same sense of shared accomplishment as a hard-fought Natural Selection 2 victory achieved through coordination rather than raw reflexes alone.
Visually, the game prioritizes clarity and function over spectacle. Environments are cleanly designed to support navigation and combat readability, even if they lack the cutting-edge polish of modern AAA shooters. Alien infestation effects, marine technology, and map layouts are all immediately readable in the heat of battle, reinforcing the game’s competitive focus. Sound design is similarly utilitarian, with audio cues playing a critical role in situational awareness, particularly for tracking enemy movement and threats.
Longevity has been one of the game’s quiet strengths. While official development has slowed, the community has remained active through mods, balance discussions, and organized play. The dedicated player base reflects the game’s niche appeal: Natural Selection 2 does not aim to please everyone, but those who connect with its design often remain engaged for years. Its structure rewards mastery and teamwork in a way that few modern multiplayer titles attempt.
Ultimately, Natural Selection 2 is a game defined by ambition and discipline. It refuses to simplify itself for accessibility, instead trusting players to rise to its complexity. The fusion of FPS immediacy with RTS oversight creates a multiplayer experience that feels cerebral and visceral at the same time, where every bullet fired and every structure placed contributes to a larger strategic narrative. For players seeking a competitive game that values coordination, adaptability, and strategic thinking as much as individual skill, Natural Selection 2 remains a singular and deeply rewarding experience.
Rating: 8/10
чудесная игра, команды сбалансированы,капитаны круто реализованы, даль игра забыта
Если играть за монстров то очень интересно! А вот за десантников кхм...
Really great game, I wish I played more when it was still active. There is bots so you can still get a taste of what it was like. Most the fun was had when your team was throwing though. Add me if you wanna play sometime.
Connection issues when trying to play with friends.
they should have updated this game more to bad it will never be updated again
норм
ничего не понятно, но очень интересно. Советую
💋
Класна гра! Жаль що укр комюніті дужe мале
Безусловно хорошая игра, просто прекрасная по задумке особенно прекрасно количество построек за командира гениальная игра но вот игра за обычную пехоту хрень полная, я не знаю кто делал это управление но для шутера это бред полный какие то медленные движение просто неудобный интерфейс и БОТЫ я знаю что есть два типа ботов тупые и кибер терминаторы уничтожители галактик так вот в этой игре они вторые ведь хрень его знает но двигаются они так как будто угашенные в край по ним невозможно попасть и я сейчас конкретно про этих мелких сталкеров или как их там вот список их способностей кстати: Ваншотают определённо, двигаются как боги, хп такое что придётся всю обойму обычной винтовки высадить чтобы убить, и почему то со всеми этими баффами они ещё и невидимыми имеют право становится (Это они под управлением игрока а если они боты то умножайте все параметры на два кроме хп) и причём им с их скоростью ещё и облегчили путь через долбанную вентиляцию из за которой порой в обороне нет смысла когда они могут просто пробраться в тыл. Насчёт оружия по ощущениям всё оно бесполезно кроме той самой базовой винтовки потому что дробовик - наносит 0 урона долгая перезарядка; гранатомёт - Бесполезен против всего что не стоит на месте ибо задержка во взрыве колосальная год пройдет а прямо попасть нереально из за такой же медлиности как и у дробовика. Сварочный аппарат или чинилка угроблены тем что за чем то занимают слот топора (который кстати бесполезен в 99% случаев из за ОЧЕНЬ ОЧЕНЬ И ОЧЕНЬ долгой анимации доставание как и у пистолета что не даёт и малейшего шанса выжить если закончатся патроны к основному оружию во время боя) и хотя она даёт возможность чинить постройки я не знаю почему нельзя было переместить эту функцию на о боже букву е (кнопка постройки) из за чего ты опять же уязвим. Хп у противников будто бесконечное они просто губки для свинца процентов 50% их юнитов вообще похрен на целую выпущенную обойму а то и на вторую
Итог: Игра прекрасная баланс говна
Хорошая игра и живых современных аналогов ей нет а ведь сама игра почти мертва
Прикольная игра, не смотря не на что продолжает держать хоть и маленький онлайн, но есть и русс говорящие и англ и пару серверов. Рекомендую
Buen juego lastima que no hable ingles para poder ser commandante pero aun asi es un buen juego, basicamente es un rts donde cada unidad es un jugador y el que manda a contruir cosas tambien, y puede salir afuera ocasionalmente a apoyar en el modo fps como cualquier otro.
Good game, it’s a shame I don’t speak English well enough to be a commander, but even so it’s a good game. Basically, it’s an RTS where each unit is a player, and the one who gives orders and builds things is also a player, and he can occasionally go out and support in FPS mode like anyone else.
Para quienes les guste este tipo de juego les recomiendo: Silica, Executive assault 2 y Battlezone:combat commander aunque los ultimos 2 no tienes tantos jugadores como Silica ahi estan si lo quieren probar.
For those who like this type of game, I recommend Silica, Executive Assault 2, and Battlezone: Combat Commander, although the last two don’t have as many players as Silica. Still, they’re there if you want to try them out.
classic
fun as hell still a lively community i love this game in general came out before i was born but i got it and absolutely loved it
incredible
Best game ever made
[b]As of this year, a new CEO has taken over at the behest of the publisher. That would be good if it wasn't Krafton. They destroyed Kerbal Space Program and a few other noteworthy projects. It's safe to say Unknown Worlds Entertainment is a dead company and its products should be ignored.[/b]
This is a good game with an extremely toxic, out of touch community that drove away most of the playerbase.
Unfortunately, that attitude does extend to the developers, who fell into the, "Video Games make you Violent," crowd and decided they are never going to make a sequel to or properly flesh out this game.
This flawed thought process managed to impact their flagship series, Subnautica as well, with Below Zero being dumbed down and devoid of real character. Subnautica 2 is also showing signs that they haven't fired the people destroying their company yet.
To make matters worse, the bot support in this game is virtually non-existent. What is there is balanced toward the Aliens, so bot matches will only last around five minutes with the same outcome every time.
So, should you buy it? If you want to have a horrible experience where your two choices are getting annihilated by people who consider this game a second form of employment or get accused of smurfing and barred from the one existing noob friendly server, then sure.
This game didn't fail, it was sunk on purpose by a studio who's politics got too influential in their decision making. There won't be a NS3, the best you can hope for is some of the old devs to get together and make a spiritual successor of some kind.
Natural Selection is still available as a free mod for Half-Life.
Tremulous and Unvanquished are free to play titles based on the gameplay style of the original Natural Selection that include proper bot support.
Silica is humans vs aliens vs humans and expands on the concept by having it be a full RTS where players are units on the field and can drive vehicles or perform various tasks at the behest of the commander. It includes full PVP and PVE.
Executive Assault 2 is another example. Although you'll be spending more time shooting robots than alien bugs.
Dead game
,
The game is dead.
When it was alive though, this game was a fantastic blend of FPS/RTS/Strategy. Every game was different. Every encounter mattered.
Easily the best FPS/Strategy games to release - I'd go as far as to call it the only successful one.
awesome game, shame low player count
10
One of the best asymmetric pvp games of all time. Really recommend it. Its community is still alive
Game has almost the same sort of look as the first but it's not quite the same feel. There's hundreds of servers but only 4 are populated. Matchmaking takes hours to pair due to the lack of players. I'd love the game if they put some more effort into promoting the ranking system and maybe add more than 1 singular game mode and 2 minigames.
tres bon jeux a la alien versus marine et une partie RTS.
Toxic community ruins the game. <BAD> servers are ran by a fascist man-baby whose name rhymes with Laithe. The entire community knows this, but the game is too dead to play on any other servers. Enjoy!
Fun concept, poorly executed, tiny community.
It is super cool game but nothing play it . I lovit
very fun
Few servers live, and the mood can be special. But its a great game, quite competetive and takes a lot to master. Games can be long and epic but also chaoticly quick and surprising. My favorite fps
ME ENCANTA!!! LO AMO ! LASTIMA QUE NO SE COMO SUBIR DE RANGO.
sdsadasd
its fun gameplay great small community sum server owners trash talk and throw the game making every one lose and will ban you for little people com for you not help full most games others bully and when you com most will trash talk what you say. they wont get into the chair i played 400 hours of normal gameplay and 100 of com it was before its time and i find my self not liking the players game great from com to playing aliens even humans are fun but the players anger me
best money spent and if it came back alive i would play even would play 3th ns you should play lots of funny times but most of the time not because of players server owners will troll
The game concept is incredible and its a damn shame it didnt pick up when the devs still supported it. Writeing this as of 24.10.2025 i have to say that theres like 2 community servers left that still actively play populated by the most dedicated fans of the game imagineable. Unfortunately that means that 1. if youre trying to learn either playing or commanding youll face league of legends levels of abuse and 2. youll get crushed in game by people who have thousands of hours more experiance than you do. My recommendation is to let the game die with dignity and hope for a worthy successor.
game play is very solid, both sides feel very fun to play. had some very helpful vets and not so helpful vets. truly wish it had more players, especially new players to help revive the game. for only $5 it was really worth it!
Nothing like it, people still lining up to play over 12 years after release. It has a tough learning curve but the situations and team play experience when everything clicks is something other games can only dream to achieve. Fair warning, after 100 hours I thought "I know the basics", after 1,000 hours I was confident enough to say I was a good player. Learning is part of the fun, if somebody is getting on your nerves just mute them and play on.
NS1 remains one of my all-time favorites. NS2, however... well... I think it took too long to release and as a result, never really took off.
ns1 부터 고이고 고여서 썩은물만 남은 진입장벽 존나 높은 게임
- 애초에 카라(에이리언) 제대로 사용 하려면 bhop 이라는 어려운 기술(알려주는 데도 없고 즈그들 끼리만 사용) 연마, 연습 해야 함
- 일일 동접 최대 50~60명 고이고 고이고 고인 썩은 물들만 있으면 얘들이 신규, 또는 하수들 그냥 잡아먹는 놀이터임
- 난이도가 너무 높아 배울데도 없고 그만한 가치도 없음
- 사실 무료로 풀어도 할까 말까한 게임
- 일단 bhop 이나 캐릭터 사용 난이도를 줄여야 뭐가 될 듯
- 고인물에 썩은물 들만 하는 게임이고 어려운 기술 즈그들끼리만 주고 받으니 누가 사냐고 그러니까 당연히 망할 수 밖에
- 게임성이 좋다 뭐다 해도 망한데는 다 이유가 있고 안할만 하니까 사람들이 갖다가 버린거임...
사지 마세요 사는 순간 서버에 들어가서 썩은물들의 장난감, 노리개가 될 뿐이고 기술도 안알려주고 배울 가치도 없는 게임 임다.
решите купить в 2025 ожидайте 3 живых серва,на которых сидят нытики и если сделал тимвайп то банят.
great game, unfortunatelly just few people play this game

Even though this game is old, the age really doesn't show all that much. Very fun game, very worth the price. Playerbase is (firstly, existent) dedicated and there is always at least 1 server you can hop into, and on weekends there are quite a few servers. Bots are very good in this game, and there have been some highly dedicated members of the NS2 community that have kept this game not only alive, but kept improving it - even though it is done through non-official updates.
9/11 Would buy again
Simply cause of the fact every lobby is full of people with thousands of hours makes it unplayable for new players. And the tutorial is absolutely useless, doesn't teach you anything at all.
Awesome concept but got abandoned and therefore fell off completely sadly.
A very good game!
Was good when it wasn't dead. Very fun gameplay loop and interesting mechanics but unfortunately barely anyone plays anymore and those who do are strict about using their servers.
:D
The limited players remaining in this game all have thousands of hours. It is unplayable for new players. Even the "noob friendly" servers are full of people bhopping like it's a CS surf lobby. Even ran into someone with an aimbot within 3 games.
Nice
Been playing the game for a long time over the years. It was a fun game for a time, but that time has passed.
I wouldn't recommend purchasing it now, it's pretty much dead. Wish Unknown Worlds would just make it free to play since
they abandoned the franchise.
Wish I could give it a neutral review since back then it was great. But from the perspective of a new buyer AVOID.
国服外服一样烂，给钱都别玩，国服压力萌新，国外欺负萌新，开你妈5个小孩来萌新服炸鱼真的4了马了，别玩，别玩，别玩！
a friend recommended this game to me but he said there arent much people playing it.
after 9 hours of people being very toxic in voice chat i got banned from someone named handschuh for unknown reason.
very weird experience for short time amount of time.
i get why there arent much ppl left playing this game.
not recommended.
крутая игра во вселенной сабны, достойна воскрешения
