That cover artwork is a shameless plagiarisation of a classic Games Workshop painting. At least the face and pose are.

Before clicking, I can guess the one, a marine sarge in a small squad, can't remember the chapter but would guess dark angels...

Since you work for a company making a WWII game (albeit not your typical type) you are automatically biased. :)

That's just it: the whole problem would be solved if there actually were atypical WWII games (or a game) released. Maybe not the whole problem, but at least it could help.

thanks.
i have read this kind of articles, too, back then. sure, quake was not all that innovative, but it definately was the most important pc game, at least in the field of fps.
what really pissed me off at that time (not in this article) were comparisons to utter crap games, like "uh no auto-map in quake... this was sooo much better in duke nukem" and so on...
but who can blame those jerks, they just didn't know better, playing their dumb interactive movie adventures all the time... :P
anyway, i'm only looking for these "quake is..." advertisements. its pages in your magazine look very good (unlike mine), so you should make it a poster to hang in your rooms - which would be quite natural for someone running a quake site, anyway. ;)
Sure

Says who?
Wolfenstein...
#9565 posted by than on 2005/12/21 15:18:24
is not exactly one of the "realistic" fps corridor shooters under my crosshairs actually, since there is loads of fun occult stuff in there and it never felt based on WW2 that closely. RTCW seemed a lot more like Indy Jones style Nazi fighting than anything.
If Lun was working on "The Men who are Brothers of the Call of the Medal of Duty who have Valour in Arms 6" then I might say he could have some bias, but ...
...Fucking git! He's working on the next Wolfenstein game ffs.

#9567 posted by than on 2005/12/21 22:39:20
Erm, I suppose I should have said "Raven is working on the next Wolfenstein game ffs."
That Lun is working on the next Wolfenstein was just an assumption, since he was working on the now released Quake 4, and recently another Wolfenstein game, which will presumably use the same (or similar) tech was anounced to be in development at Raven.
I have no idea what Lunaran is working on to be perfectly honest. I suppose you bhave a bunch of other projects going on at Raven that he could be on, or perhaps he was hired as the vending machine repairman.
Sorry.

Yay

I've got 8GB free webspace for Quaddicted.com now! Bwhaha, and I'm paying only 7 Euro per month :)
What shall I host there? I can't invest much more time but maybe some "file dump"?

Sounds too good to be true. I wouldn't be surprised if you have downtimes and other crap for that price...

I don't think so. Quaddicted has never been down except for some nasty hardware crash that got fixed after one day. I trust them. Service is awesome and speeds are wonderful. It's www.all-inkl.com btw (german).

Hey Scragbait check this out:

I was thinking about your map again lately and found this review. That really was a great map, nice spooky halloween atmosphere. The review is amusing, a few terms don't seem to have made the translation well, the most hilarious one being your alias.
ROFL

Quakenet
#9578 posted by than on 2005/12/22 18:44:01
Quakenet blocks irc hosts from asia-pacific, so I can't connect. Does anyone know an easy* way around this?
*easy as in not going to another country just to idle in irc.
Hmmm...
#9579 posted by bal on 2005/12/22 22:40:05
Aren't there some irc clients that let you connect through some random proxy?
Quakenet really sucks for blocking asian connections btw...
