Hello guys!
Through generous sponsorship from ATI, it's our great pleasure to announce the first international, official, online NS v2.1 tournament! The grand prize for being the best NS clan around the world? Six brand-new, Radeon 9800 Pros...one for each member of the winning team!
What's more, we're opening up the current v2.1 beta testing (on Steam), to all the active clan players in the community. This means that if you are an ACTIVE NS clan (ie, scrimmage every day or every other day), you will automatically get access to the current v2.1 beta, INCLUDING the new intense Combat gameplay mode!
If you aren't part of an active clan, and you really want early access to the v2.1 beta, you can always donate $20 to the cause, and become a Constellation member. Natural Selection is a free game, but we depend greatly on the financial support of the community to continue active development. Being a Constellation member gets you an icon by your name whenever you play online, and also grants access to the current beta and playtesting.
