I'm glad to hear that.

...sorry but this really is just a mindless button slamming hackathon isn't it?? I know wrath posted some very vague ideas about combining attacks before but I haven't managed to get anything to work. Trying it on hard skill is ridiculous, it's like playing Reaperbots with everyone using Axes.
Come on, I know some of you played the demo so what the bollox is going on here??
Um

I completed the whole game basically using mindless button mashing. I started to get some stuff near the end, but not much. I also played on Medium I think which made it obviously easier.

Are you taking your time collecting enough gold to get yourself juiced up with new swords and shit?

anyone know if there are still any copies of generations for quakeTWO still floating around? I know it got foxed, but it was really fun to play. It only had Q1 and Q2 characters, and a few converted maps from Quake, but it was great.
Also, anyone know any really good Q2 deathmatch modes? Including extra weapons preferably.
And, Shambler, I recall your comment with regards to enclave/rune, and rune ISNT a mashing fest, it is based on the direction you attack from. Well perhaps it is a mashing fest, but there is skill involved.
Rune Rocks.

Just a shame you have to use UED to edit for it...

A lot of people like the Awakening mod for Q2. I haven't played it much but I think it's got more realistic weapons. One of Kona's maps had a couple extra weapons I liked and I think they were taken from some Commercial expansions. Not really sure though.
Pah...

Warth, this is just the demo. I'm playing it again to see if I really want the full game. But I've tried different weapons this time, to no avail.
RPG: Okay.
Tronyn: I know you are the Rune fanboy to end all fanboys, and yes I know about the directional attacks in Rune, similar thing in Enclave. But it still adds up to "ineffective" i.e. there is little to gain from any particular attack other than the direction it goes.

The main attraction for me is the quality of the levels. Also, I enjoy the occasional hack and slash. Gauntlet was fun.
Speedmap Pack... 53!
#2205 posted by Scampie on 2003/10/10 18:19:47
you guys know the story. speedmap 53. saturday. 4pm est. 100 mins.
this week, you have an 2 options on the theme!
the first theme will be 'cube only'. this means you make use NO angled, curved, beveled etc etc etc brushes in your map. so you basically have to map like vondur.
the secondary theme for this week, if you don't like the first, is to make speedrunning maps... only catch is that they have to hinder speedrunners in some way. kill them with secrets that , block them, time each area so they have to stay in it for 2 mins... whatever.
hope to see you then!
Btw

Heh, you're right about that.
I don't know what other system for melee third person fighting there really is - I admit that attacking in Rune is *fairly* simple, but if the developer makes it overly complex you end up with something like Die By The Sword - great, but the learning curve is steep and the gameplay can be quite slow.
Unfortunately, the genre of third person fantasy combat is one that needs a lot of further development but isn't likely to get it because it doesnt sell as well as it should.

Q2
#2213 posted by Vodka on 2003/10/10 21:53:47
speaking of q2, is there any mod that has fast or instant weapon switching and runs singleplayer ?

#2214 posted by Tronyn on 2003/10/10 22:25:04
I meant closer to FPS than to RPG (that is, diablo and dungeon siege don't count. Rune and heretic II do.)
And Abyss

Savage? Lot of people seem to think it's good, they say the net code side of things is good to. But I don't know, haven't tried it.
