P0rn inside.

[Helioth]

Well, as you may or may not have guessed, there is no porn inside : [

I just wanted to say how pleased I am with Da 2: Very !
Just to demonstrate, I played 4 - 5 hours straight yesterday, getting into my sniping / sneaking gamestyle. . . and there aren't many games around now that do that to me, as I just dont have the time / money to waste.

I'm sure your aware of the numerous imbalances / bugs e.t.c so i wont go into great detail on those, because its only beta (release) and, in relation to da1, its a VERY smooth release.

Over all balance issues asside: the gameplay is rock solid. The graphics are groundbreaking (for a mod at least ) .
The sound is pretty much "bang on", excuse the pun. . .
The maps are, in the pure aesthetic sense, very well done !
(as said above, balance issues aside)
Lots of atmosphere, great effects, a top notch mod in general, so: Thumbs up guys! Great achievment !

I got a bit carried away yesterday, but I did try some of the other classes and as far as i could see, each and every one was good in it's own right and suited a specific playstyle !

I look forward to updates and more matches, also, it seems like you have a pretty constructive and interesting bunch of members on the forum so maybe I'll stick around here too depends. . .

Anyway, what i wanted to say, is / was that I'm into 2d art i.e. photoshop stuff and might be able to do some texture work / level design / posters e.t.c
my site address is http://helioth.deviantart.com if you want to check it out,
I will proboably do some fan art because da is so extremely cool

rock on : ]

Thanks!

Yeah Da1 had it's flaws, mostly the infamous "stuck bug" which is still in the CE version AFAIK.
So for DA2 we planned on not implementing and and insert more subtle bugs

About balancing issues you mentioned,
mostly the turrets and mech scorings needs adjustments as of our current knowledge. If you have further balancing suggestions go ahead. I won't promise anything , but we'll at least take a look at it.

Wth where is teh pr0n??!

Guess i'll just use the topic anyway to express my gratitude for this great mod too. It actually turned out to be the most played FPS on a little Lan over here. Besides those balancing issues everything feels just fine. I especially love how the rockets are guided and the sniper carmouflage. But even playing as ordinary infantry is fun like hell.

One thing though, i wonder why there are so few people playing DA online. Most of the time there are only one maybe two servers in use with just about six people playing and a few bots. At least for me the server latency is fine, no lags and all, and everyone seems to agree that the game rocks. So this is kinda odd.

I think it would be awesome to have 32 player matches or something. With more people in game the turrents probably wouldn't even be too powerfull. Realy hope many more people will learn about the mod soon and get hooked too.

yeah well dont forget there are a lot of new games out atm, UT2004 is ranked 6th atm in most played games. Also BeyondUnreal being down doesnt help.

The other problem is people think UT2004 mod = sux, whilst many people are looking at HL2 mods to play.

Give it time, I also want to contact a few magazines in the UK to spread the word.

Also by 1.1 I hope more ppl will have heard of us.

Already a music studio who like the game are gonna make all our music for upcoming releases! this keeps getting better and better.

 

[Helioth]

Awesome news FluXs !
If you really get this out into the main stream, da2'll be popular in no time !
More people playing = more fun.

 

[igNiTion]

i've played with you some helioth, don't know if you've recognized me or not though.

anyways - how the hell are you so good with the sniper? I can't hit anything at all with it, and most of the time the targets are too far away to know whether to lead left or right :/

 

[Helioth]

I remember you dude : ]

well, i have a 2000dpi laser mouse, and a 19" tft. . . my da also runs extremely smoothly and i never have a ping higher than 50 so. . . i guess that has something to do with me getting (i.e. giving) all those kills

I still have to lead a little bit but. . . mostly i can predict where i have to shoot to get headshots. i have around 75 - 90 % efficiency (accuracy) with the sniper rifle in a good game, and 60 - 80% with all other guns. . .
you just need to adapt to the playstyle a bit, I only really bother taking shots when I'm relatively certain I'll hit someone. . . which is most of the time.
Boom HEADSHOT !

 

[Hunz]

When you play offline without any lag, the sniperrifle is very deadly - with lag I find it much harder to hit, though. The weapons is very accurate if used proprly!

 

[Helioth]

Its deadly either way. . . it just that its slightly harder to hit when playing online.

The bullets still do the exact same amount of damage off or online
It also manages to hit the exact dot you aim it at so. . . its really only as good a weapon as the person holding it is.

I have wireless internet, a wireless mouse, and a 15 inch display. lol. the game runs fairly smoothly though, 20-90 fps depending on what's going on.

Indeed, i enjoyed it very much! Hope we'll have many more opportunities to rock
Give it some time and and the game won't even need balancing ;D

This is pretty much the only thing I play now, (along with UT of course ) but I am barely ever online simply for the fact that there arnt any Pacific servers and the bots are just as good as people anyway . I'll try to get online a little more though.

 

[vonBek]

NOO!!! Where's the pr0n, you trickster!! I want compensation.

 

[Jackal239]

Ok, I am still a tester around here and here is the unofficial way to fix the stuck bug. Send me 20 dollars, if that doesn't work, keep doing it till the bug is fixed.

 

[Helioth]

you can try this: Esc + change teams ^_^
or grenade yourself. . .
or try to walk / crouch / moo.

 

[Teak]

Getting shot works fine too.. just call for a sniper.

 

[Helioth]

or anti-armor *support*

I'ld like to point out before this comes up in a later date, notice how the topic was Pr0n inside and Dante was the first reply. Hehehe. Then Teak beat me to the punch for "There's no porn here post"
