Build 204 news - Natural Selection 2 Game

We are back from PAX East! Despite half the team being incapcitated by the PAX Plague (Otherwise known as Meet'n'Greet Flu) we are back in the office and smashing out more builds. Build 204 is almost functionally identical to the build that was played at PAX East. Max stayed up all night last Thursday to add some new effects for the PAX audience, and we think you will really enjoy them.There won't be a patch video for 204 as it is so small, and Hugh is currently working on bringing you a video of our experience at PAX East.
