For those of you not frantically refreshing our NS2 megalist, here’s a quick rundown of all the new additions or revisions that have been made to it this week:
- Nymphs are the floaty things in these concept pieces (thanks Trayder for the tip):

- “It’s very likely we will have a non-Steam version that you can get directly from us in addition to a Steam version.” -Max
- Some NS2 music samples on myspace.
- NS2 menz “will be happy soon“! Hooray!
- Flamethrower, motherfuckers! [1]
- Nymphs are part of a new spawn system (Thanks again Trayder):
- Nymphs randomly float down an form an egg.
- Alien players can choose which egg from 10-15 on the floor to spawn from, so marines don’t know which egg a player will come from.
- When the number of eggs drops below a critical number, a new nymph will float down to spawn an egg on a random surface around the hive.
- Plans to have “steam and mist” emit from the gills on the back of the new hive model:

Also plans to have the yellow center glow and be semitransparent:

Make sure you check out the full megalist to see all the other info about NS2 we’ve managed to scrape together.
