Bumpity bump, I never saw this mod until last night and while my friend is able to play fine, I keep getting kicked from this mod for "cheating or lagging" at the exact moment I fire my first shot.

Enzo-03

^That's a risk I'd certainly take. A couple of friends and I messed around with a dev kit and unity and made a simple 6DoF environment. It was probably the first time a video game has ever given me motion sickness.

Enzo-03

Yep. It seems they're doing an enhanced re-release that will have some upgraded graphics and full Steam functionality, including use of its services for internet play. If anyone knows about my enhanced Pyro-GX model for D2, Rebecca Heineman from Olde Skuul has contacted me about using it for the ...

Blarget tells me he found that Descent 2 is supposedly to be released and put on sale as soon as the Descent 1 sale ends and that apparently Descent 3 will be in added after that. I don't remember his sources though, something about some Descent 2's Steam page data being somehow mixed into Descent 1 ...

I did notice that the map is apparently from 1995. I'm a bit curious what it's like now.

Also the US's size confuses me because it has both the continental US and Alaska (no love for Hawaii). So the size for the US would really be the combined area of the continental US and Alaska on the map?

(is actually less fancy, just long)

edit: apparently this has a "View in 3D" option as well.

Well... I enjoy toast with jam, butter or no.

As for eggnog, I've never tried the stuff.

25 million and climbing.

I for one want to play it with the Oculus Rift and hopefully by the time I get that opportunity I'll have a rig powerful enough to actually run it.

Or if you.. ..you know.. ..play multiplayer. Guaranteed to happen in 80 to 90% of games with smarts. It's like playing Mario Kart nowadays. As a kid the red and blue shells seemed to be awesome in every way. Now? Half the time I fire a blue shell, it takes a 90-degree turn into the wall on a ...

I thought the smart missile surprisingly did more total damage than the mega when combined with its smart blobs... But the mega is much much more dangerous because of its splash damage radius where the smart missile can only damage what it directly hits with its blobs, which may or may not all go ...

ROFL!!! Kali is still around? OMG!!! Not sure if I can find my serial to Kail.. roll: And to harass Vroodennnn that's a dream come true :lol: I remember back in the day when I harassed that guy. Wow, he use to get really pissed at me and Tankie. :rant: <----Vrooden. Ferno... I checked out ...

*320x200
But very true. Those seams in the walls were a lot harder to see.

I played a small (4 player) game of Quake Live yesterday. It was pretty tense, a kill only every now and then because we were constantly trying to outsmart one another. I feel games like Quake can often have just as much strategy as Descent, but with a different feel of course since you're a sack of ...

Enzo-03

It's both. DCS World lets you fly planes & missions for the planes if you have the module for them. It comes with the Su-25T module for free, which alone probably provides countless hours of fun. You can buy other modules, such as the A-10C. There's several modules by the DCS developers as well as ...

DOSBox does support some kind of IPX network emulation as far as I remember, so you can use it for multiplayer if need be. Indeed, last I checked, which was actually quite a while ago, the (very small) mechwarrior 2 community was using a custom NetMech setup with DOSBox. Speaking of Mechwarrior 2 ...

There is a chance that because of this class, the student technology center might put all the games on this list on the gaming computers in the student technology center. All of them except Commander Keen come off of GoG, so they will be using DOSBox. So that includes Descent :\ Maybe I can show ...

I'd call the Diamond Claw in D2 "The Chalkboard Death Scratcher" because of that irritating sound you hear when he attacks.

Yeah? Whoskyd simply makes a chomping sound.

Why does a robot make a chomping sound, anyway??

I'm taking a class as a free elective this spring semester. It is a Composition II class with a special topic called 20th Century Gaming. Here is a list of the games covered: Black Isle - PLANESCAPE: TORMENT Sierra - PHARAOH Black Isle/Interplay - FALLOUT Interplay - DESCENT Square Enix - TOMB ...

Whoskyd likes to name all robots after the sounds they make.

I think I've been getting into a habit of using maxed out quad lasers for everything in D1 and D2, SP and MP.

Enzo-03

I believe the cut corners in the D1 levels were more a result of a tight schedule and a very small crew (I think they had something like half a dozen level designers, most of whom also had other roles in the project). Throw in the fact that they were using very crude tools (Miner) and the 320x200 ...

Enzo-03

I am XXXL. Yep, the PS1 port of the game had cinematics that narrated most of the opening and ending sequences, as well as voice-overs for the robot info, which was kind of cool. Obviously that's the sort of thing that wouldn't exactly have fit on D1's original floppy disk release. What I always ...

If it starts pointing towards space you are having a bad problem and you will not go to space today.

Weird. The counties I've lived in both say that almost everyone calls them "Coke" (something which infuriates me because it's another one of those pet peeves of mine regarding words, like people calling Hades the Devil and people calling Underworld Hell). But I might have run into 2 people my entire ...

Well I wouldn't call H.A.W.X. a flight sim...

Feast your eyes upon this, for I have not seen a better looking Pyro available for all forms of D2: http://enspiar.com/dmdb/users/179/Enzo03_s%20Pyro-GX%20upgrade%20d.jpg You can fly your very own right here: http://enspiar.com/dmdb/viewMission.php?id=592 I will not be severely modifying the model ...

But that's not running as far as you can, only to your car.

Enzo-03

I think I'll ask other people this.

Enzo-03

Of course, I'd bet lasers would be beams, not bolts.

Wow. If the model turns out to look anything like the sketch, it will be my favorite so far. That thing looks wicked sick.

Enzo-03

Outta the room, into my bedroom, through the window, leap off the roof, run across two and a half acres, hop over the barbed wire fence, step in neighbor's cow ★■◆●, throw a kiddie-cussing-fit, 30 seconds have passed.

Deer logic: see the car way up there and wait, then when the car is near jump out in front of it - it's the best way to make sure you don't get hit.

Enzo-03

Ugh.. PETA.

I don't even take them seriously tbh, except when they put down hordes of animals. Then I hate them even more.

Enzo-03

I haven't seen any of them in games. It seems the same people are in the D3 games all the time. There is a set of people who play Subway Dancer a lot, and then a set of people who play regular anarchy a lot, and then a couple who play coop.
