An interesting schism in what people are suggesting (perhaps the schism between those who read the whole post and those who didn`t :P)...
Raven Shield, Vietcong, Battlefield 1942, Operation Flashpoint, Ghost Recon - NO! I asked for NOT gritty realistic action. Starcraft, Q1 TF, HL/Counterstrike - NO! I asked for fairly new with great graphics. Nor, for that matter, did I ask for teamplay - just coop. Dungeon Siege, NWN - Yes! This is more like it. I didn`t know if coop is possible in those sorts of games. How focused are these two games on hack`n`slash button mashing action compared to exploration, story, characters etc etc?? Also would it be possible in a coop game for one player for focus on action and the other to focus on other aspects of progression?? Any more suggestions (not just RPGs) now this post might have clarified things?? HL2 screens : http://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/ryanw/HL2/
Build your shelters now, the world is going to end soon. Does anyone have contact details for tawilson from Undulation (http://planetunreal.com/undulation/aboutundule.htm). The @home.com email is bouncing :[
First off, I am sorry to anyone who I have ever pissed off, especially Fern if you still come around or read this. Lately, I have been thinking, and nothing positive comes from my talking to anyone in the mapping community, most likely due to my own negativity.
I have not mapped in a long time nor do I have the desire to do so. I think also, that when I post here or talk to people in #terrafusion, I am looking for something and expecting something that I should not from total strangers, and once again I apologize for that. So, consider yourselves lucky to be (seemingly) gaining a positive member of the mapping masses (Shambler) and losing a negative one. Thanks guys. Precisely, Fribbles. When I played Enclave, the first thought I had was, what if they employed this simple mechanism of attack/defend into the multiplayer version of Dungeon Siege? It would have made the game much more engaging.
Also shambler, something you should know about Dungeon Siege coop: Its not the single player campaign coop. Its just that the multiplayer world is also a campaign. So you can play the one-character multiplayer campaign with other people, but you cant have two guys controlling a party, moving through the campaign story. Also, for those that enjoyed Dungeon Siege coop, Ive been following the progress of the Shadows of Winter mod which looks to be a huge, professional overhaul of the system, with completely new monsters, an in-depth story and lots of other changes (most notably getting rid of the hack and slash gameplay). Since Dungeon Siege was pretty useless to me after I finished the SP campaign, Im hoping this mod will breath some new life into the game for me. For those interested, heres the URL: http://dynamic4.gamespy.com/~shadowsofwinter/ if HL2 has a september release date, its quite possible it could be going almost head to head with DOOM 3 [which i have a strong feeling will be released around October/November].
Which could be fun. what mag did the shots come from? i might have a look in PCG here in UK. been in italy for the hols so missed the previews and stuff.
a good piece of news (at least for me). i accepted a 12 month placement offer with british aerospace systems. Just the one review IMP1SP1 by biff.
Just been down the pub and watched the Utd v Madrid game, amazing game but Utd lost and I`m rather drunk after winning �25 outta the arcasde machine :) An Iraqi, on what America will bring to Iraq:
Democracy, whiskey, and sexy! Finally! Someone who realizes what America really stands for! NWN was pretty much built for the multiplayer experience. If you don't like hack and slash much you can set the difficulty to low so that you can blow through the battles and concentrate on the role play. You can also avoid a lot of battles by just running away.
I'm not sure how close together a party has to stick. It may be possible for someone to go hurt some baddies while another hangs around it town, but I make no guarantees. "So, consider yourselves lucky to be (seemingly) gaining a positive member of the mapping masses (Shambler) and losing a negative one."
LOL Blitz I think QMap could do with more of that sort of humour! P.S. The closest I`ve come to mapping is de-ticking the UnrealEd install box while installing UT... H-Hour thanks for that info. But is the multi-player coop in DS against other players or against the computer??
Pushplay thanks. For the first time ever I have temporary access to a connection better than my usual "two cups and a piece of string". So in theory I could play some of you lot online.
Games I`ve got available: UT2, Battlefield 1942, Iron Storm, IGI2, Splinter Cell, WC3, C&C Generals, AOM....(okay and CS but there is no way in hell...) Games I know how to play: UT2. Games I could probably learn: The other FPSs. Games I would need to be walked through: The rest. Times I can play: 10pm - 12am UK time. I`m very rusty so ideally I could play something against a similar incompetent, or better, teamplay with a few similar incompetents =). So....errr....ummm..../looks shy...
