What the hell is this "ballin" thing?
You know... I'm still surprised all the references to "toast" for the popup messages aren't called "bagels".
You must also be getting very WRONG. You have no idea how I raise my sons or how intelligent they or I myself are. You also have no idea how strong my moral compass is, or how much I love my children. You have no clue how much I examine, and reexamine and self analyze every decision I make in regards to them and what they see and hear.
I take the time to explain things to my children in painstaking detail. I talk to them on their level and do not let a topic go leaving them confused or scared to ask me more .
They are both caring, empathetic, understanding little boys when they need to be and they are also rough and tumble little super hero monsters when it's time for that.
My 4 year old son can explain to you why Captain America is a real hero and the Punisher is a scared and hurt man who probably cries a lot when he's alone. He even understands why Spider-Man jokes and taunts the bad guys, to try and cover up his own fears and uncertainty. ( Mama was an awesome example 'cause she tends to smile when she's nervous, so we used that as a basis for explaining why Spider-Man is funny when he's fighting.)
I know when to draw lines, and when to start questioning my son's understanding of what he sees. My love of video games has given me plenty of time to explain them to him, and how fake they are. He knows that gun in real life are horrible scary things to avoid. He doesn't think I'm running scared shooting at zombies, he KNOWS that I am playing my zombie GAME. He understands "pretend" and "real".
I dunno kid, you can generalize whatever you want. Think whatever you want, but when the day is done, my kids are fine. They're my only reason to take life seriously, and when I do I'm very thorough. I educate myself on anything I need to and pass it on to them. I don't act as some default filter blocking the world from my kids, I act as a teacher and translator and protector when my and my wife's morals dictate.
I'm not Jack Thompson, but I'm also not some overworked, absentee dad who only talks to his kids in short curt sentences, while trying to carry on with my personal life. My kids ARE my personal life.
I've been home EVERY night at bedtime and so far, ZERO nightmares.
And of course accidentally wake up once in the night just to see a few minutes of L4D gameplay isn't going to make your child go nuts about headshots. There's some sort of longer Counter Strike-ish pattern there. That guy must have been filling his son's brain to a massive level.

I'm 35 thank you, far from being a "kid"
Also just because you explain to them in detail what it is their seeing, doesnt make the content less "adult-themed."
I can sit a kid down and explain to a child exactly how a person commits suicide with a straight razor on their level and then explain to them how wrong it is.
Doesnt mean it's something the kid should be exposed to at his age.
Seems most parents today treat their kids like little adults, and like I said... I must be getting old, because I remember being a kid and everyone around me treating me like one.
Once again. sorry to go OT in the thread, I wont respond to this anymore no matter how many times decide to quote me.

Uh... yes. hahahaAnd you worked for epic prior to this?
I think the only thing that ever got released was DOM-WolfsBay. Which was essentially a 2-3 week experiment for me.
I had been doing an official Rocket Arena map too. It used DM-ArcaneTemple as the main arena and my own levels for the smaller ones. I lost that in the same hard drive crash I believe.
I was proud of those little arenas too.
Man, I haven't thought about this stuff in ages.
You know, while I was doing the toaster easter egg, I never once thought of the bagel incident. That's how long it's been.

Let's hope the Titan Pack doesn't transform into a Titanic Pack. Hits a bagelberg and fades away.
You're not. I'm also betting I'm not the only who doesn't care
It isn't that I don't care, i'm just saying now instead of the game sucking ass AND having no players, it will be good... but still have no players....

Actually you need more than one for it to be plural, but put me down. Should fix that whole dilemma
We aren’t quite ready yet to start going into detail about the bonus content and gametypes that will be in the Titan Pack, which is substantially bigger than any bonus pack we've released in the past.
I wonder what the new gametypes will be
Maybe Assault.. Vehicle Assault.. something totally new..
TBH I think they have done the best they can do to bring life back to UT3, and over 17,000 views of the thread in a couple days says some people are interested.
Heck, if the existing community starts actually saying some positive things about the game for once, some new people might even actually buy the game too.
