The Natural Selection mod for Half-Life released the client version 2.0 this week for free download. NS is a multi-player only class/objective based first person strategy mod which brings captivating environments, multiple unit types, and unique gameplay, all without a steep learning curve. The NS team sums up its gameplay in a much better way than I probably could, so here you go:
"First-person strategy" with a real resource model and consequences for actions. Both sides are genuinely different and together they accommodate different play styles: Marines :: Fighting skill is less important, strategy and communication take its place. Playing as a marine will be a tense experience with methodical planning and strategy, interrupted with action. Aliens :: Playing as an alien will be an intense action experience, rewarding reflexes and alien heroics. Communication and coordination don't require typing.Accessible, fast, mouse-driven interface: no keys beyond those used in Half-life needed. Simple to learn and play, it is hard-core action/strategy for a mainstream audience. Innovative social dynamics lead to memorable games. Atmospheric indoor sci-fi environments full of steam, smoke and ambient soundscapes You can grab the self-installing .exe file from The Shack or from Fileplanet. You can also read an in depth review on Boomtown by going here.
  
And here is the usual plug to our forums.
