It was great, though extremely laggy. I was actually in a clan for it back in the day, the only clan I've been in.
It was pretty much just DM and TDM. You could choose your skills and augs, and by the spawns there would usually be a board full of weapons, and you could choose your preference. There were turrets and computer consoles around the maps, you could hack them and take control of the turrets for your team, you could set grenade traps and stuff. The combat came down to selecting augs and abilities to complement each other, and having the right aug to counter whatever your enemy was using. Lots and lots of fun.
Was it really like that? I have no clue I guess since I was younger but I always assumed that back then things were just different, I mean they might've been hyped up in the hardcore gamer community but not like how games are now since the whole gaming community is a lot more open than it was back then.
Hell, I remember the days before Half Life 2 where I wasn't aware of the gaming community and gaming journalism at all, I would just find my games by going to Best Buy and seeing what looked cool, Nintendo Power, or PC Gamer free demo cds. That's how I ended up finding all the games I've come to know and love and ALL the classics that became legends. Fallout 1 played in a PC Gamer demo. Same with F2. Deus Ex I just saw on the new shelf at Best Buy, hell I had never heard of it till the day I bought it. System Shock 2 I have no idea how I even came across it. You get the point, that was the golden age of games, sh1t that like definitely can't happen today.
That's one of the reasons it can't happen today and is something I was ranting about, gaming is a lot more mainsteam and everyone's jumping on the bandwagon and most of them are idiots. Now the market is just saturated with shyte.

The funny thing is, it was added as an after-thought with a patch, even. There was nothing like slipping past some dude's turret with radar transparency, disabling and re-arming the grenades he booby-trapped the console with, hacking it for your own team, and then heading down the stairs to surprise him when he thought his back was protected!
Maybe, but there was tons of hype. It wasn't quite the same as now, but forums were abuzz about them, magazines had four page spreads for them, etc.Was it really like that?

Everything was more print based. Gamers had to hit up gamermags for anything useful, basically. Depending on when you entered the scene, there was little to no television coverage, aside from the rare commercial, or maybe a game review show on a special technology channel (I'm looking at you, Extended Play on ZDtv...). Internets were more difficult to navigate for a while, if you go back far enough, so that squelched viral campaigns and the like.
I guess an extremely ambitious game could team up with a cereal, like Mario or Sonic, or Starcraft teaming with Cheetos. Other than that, I don't remember many different ways that games were promoted. I mean, unless you specifically went looking for information, it was sometimes easier to chat up the local games vendor (oh, the good ol' days of indie game retailers!).
Oh, and yes. DXMP was awesome, if too laggy for its own good sometimes. I seem to remember that throwing knives seemed to be the best close-ranged weapon. At least, I was often a knife-cushion.
Name of the next Deus Ex

What's so great about Deus Ex anyway? It looks to me like extremely boring overrated matrix knock off style game with a system of over nine thousand invetory wth.
DAIKATANA FTW!
Edit: I never played Deus Ex, but calling something like that one of the best games ever created? C'mon. You only fight against some terrorist **** or what.

Amazing atmosphere, play the game the way you want, many paths, secrets and areas.
What so good about Daikatana? According to metacritic it's ****.

Metacritic is ****
What's good about Daikatana? It is oldschool game and shooter with fast paced action, with somehow bearable RPG skill system.
It has flaws and lots of bugs and we all know the developement didn't go well. Still it is wonder it was even released the way it is...

Metacritic is ****? That's like saying everyone's opinion besides yours is ****. 
Anyways I watched some videos on Daikatana, linear level with robot bugs and ****? Looks stupid. Also everyone on the comments youtube and meta say the game is terrible, so I'll just take their word.

Sure....hive mind and majority opinion. You don't even watch most of the game nor play it, and i bet you watched some of these somethingawful guys playing, which is just horrible. They don't know how to play games.
Besides does this look like not fun?

How about you play it douchebag. That's stupid what you are saying.
How can you say it doesn't deserve to be called the best game ever when you haven't played it?
Now Leo, I'm really happy for you, and I'mma let you finish, but Deus Ex was one of the best games of all time. Of all time!

Well, when we're talking about my opinion this is always the case.
