Following the preparatory release of the Natural Selection dedicated server
(
story), the version 2.0 client for the Natural Selection
modification for Half-Life is now available. The
Natural Selection Homepage
offers a list of mirrors for the 119 MB update, along with word that: "The
Kharaa presence has been detected. Repeat: the Kharaa presence has been
detected. Somewhere onboard the aliens have already begun to breed. We have just
received notice that a Frontiersmen response craft will be docking in moments.
They represent the height of small squad technology, and the peak of modern
military training -- but even so, the outcome cannot be predicted. We expect the
fighting to be intense, and the casualties high."
