DescentBB

I wish this place had a welcome board. Anyways hey all.

I've been playing 1 and 2 since I was 5 years old(1996/1997 I think it was). However I never got my hands on the full versions until some time ago in 2003, and a year after that I learned about Descent 3 and its expansion pack and immediately bought it. Today I still occasionally get them out and reinstall them.
I have a friend that used to play Descent 3 on PXO when it was still active. I introduced Mercenary to him back in 2005 and that kept him playing D3 for a little longer until he got into other stuff.
One last thing...Descent was one of the first games I ever played on a computer. For most people it was Doom , Quake or Duke Nukem but for me it was Descent.

I'm just here to ask what the status of Descent is. Any future stuff?

That's a best hope for another game, but if it doesn't pan out then we've still got D3 which is plenty for me

/me arms the welcome mega.

Is Ω the entity code for infinity? I'm too lazy to check.

And I'm sure you've noticed by now that phpBB doesn't like HTML in usernames.

Anyway, welcome to the DBB!

Yes it is and no I never used HTML, all I did was copy the Ω from another site and pasted it into the username. Ωinfinity is what it was supposed to look like.

∞ Is the symbol for infinity.

Ω Is the Greek capitol letter Omega.

thank you.

Which, quite ironically, represents the end of something.
Also, it's spelt 'capital'. That typo is bugging me!
