Quality wise , Infinity Ward did a good job. You could argue for hours about the story - whether it was overdone or predictable.

bottom line is, your point of view is as valid as that of those who like the game. the same goes for everything else. only immature or mentally incapacitated people would believe their opinion is the only correct one.

If we all spent every bit of our time and energy acknowledging individual point of view and awareness of differences, there would be absolutely no point in voicing an opinion in the first place.

Players tend to run around with grenade launcher, because it's a quick and certain kill on close range. Now we all know that this is utterly wrong as the shells are meant to be shot against hard surface and the blast goes in the opposite direction - (example: shoot inside a room/building from outside to have it cleared).

Bad Company 2 is a perfect example of how to do MP. Hell, Battlefield 2 is too. This is modern shooting. CoD is just Quake with real guns.

I respectfully disagree - you can still state your opinion and be respectful towards others. You can base your opinion on facts rather than profanity. for example: it's more valuable to say "MW2 is inferior to BC2, due to a lack of dedicated server and unfortunate weapon balancing" than "MW2 is shitty", the latter sure is easier but doesn't make you look like a decent person to converse with in the first place.

still it has its difficulty with balancing - I agree though it's done better and feels more original. BC2 feels more based on MP, whereas MW2 feels to be based on the SP.

So freaking stop acting like you do, and you KNOW what I'm talking about...

Ok you know tat one guy that used to work for Microsoft can't think of the name, but how he showed off Halo 2 as a tatoo on his arm... I want GB to break open a trench coat and with his glorious moobs have a tatoo IT'S DONE.

The reaction would be priceless, given how irrelevant 3DRealms is in this generation of gaming. (Not the way I'd like it to be, keep in mind. I love Apogee)

lol yes of course it's been 13 years hasn't it???

MW2 was definitely made for the MP. Except what they did is try to make a competitive sport like deathmatch game.

As for balance in BC2, I don't really notice any issues with the weapons except people spamming with Gustav and the knife being broken. Shamless posting of my stats.

throwing insults at eachother sure is the best way to have a discussion.

oh I forgot, it's the internet - people feel strong when they're anonymous.

Actually I've never heard people in real life have a civilized argument either. I live in North Carolina, though, so it's normal for every Nascar and Chevy vs Ford argument to get violent.

[ZuljinRaynor]

I have civilized arguments all the time in real life.

And that concludes this evenings episode of "Arrogant Trolls Are Preying"



Now back to the Thread!



So, how about that settlement, aye?

[Edli]

Bunch of whiny pricks, you all are.

[makeamicgoboom]

All it means is now 3DRealms, on top of not having a development team, also does not has a publisher.

Take 2, I'm guessing, and I'm probably right, didn't "lose" DNF, they didn't want DNF - a game that isn't being made. Seems pretty smart to me, deciding to not publish a game that doesn't exist.

He argued that this could go on for years and that it would never come out blah blah... he's always so negative. Talk about vindication... I've always had faith in 3DRealms doing this. Now they have more power than they had before, this game WILL be a HUGE hit and all the power is in their hands where it belongs. You can bet your ass I'll be rubbing it in my friends face!!!

lol, k, you let me know how that goes, champ

[cof_3pc]

What I don't get is why some people are here just to say, " lol it's never being made and you're all dumb."

Is that the way angsty teenagers actually say, "I really really want this game, but I am mad I don't have it right this second?"

When they were presented the game, Take2 were pretty impressed with the game and gameplay, so please stfu and gtfo.

Uh publishers ALWAYS decide to publish games that don't exist. Are you saying that games have to get fully developed BEFORE a publisher decides publish the title?

source or stfu and gtfo. they're not publishing it now, are they? daaarp.

and i'm saying it's not being made anymore. no team. no one wants to touch it. you can't say there's a game when no one is working on it.

Not always. There are exceptions.

Well 3DR did say that it was still being developed in the court case. We still don't know the settlement facts either. I'd wait until that point at least to start saying the game is no longer in development/cancelled/finished/stuck in limbo for eternity

[makeamicgoboom]

Dude, coming up on 13 years. There's your point. No game takes this long unless there is something seriously ****** up with it.

[dino]

they're not gonna show it just because you demand it.

if dnf ever sees the light of day, I'm very much looking forward to play it. However, I'm not expecting to see it anytime soon - after all, we have been waiting for 13 years now - so whats another year or two?

This.

Mic, stop your bitching. If you don't want to wait, go play other games that ARE out/coming out, and stop whining on the forums of an old developer that doesn't give a **** about you right now.

I say my good sir, if you want a duel then so be it! Let us settle this like gentlemen; meet me in the churchyard at 12:00!

Ah, so you do get it! The remnants of 3D Realms does, indeed, not give a FLYING F^UCK about any of the fans. They are trolling you, as they have been for the past 13 years! WINNAR!

I don't really care if they don't care about me, that's business. What I care about is them putting out a good game.

[Sang]

I think makeamicgoboom is a masterful troll on this page

Not that I agree with him. I do think DNF exists albeit possibly far from finished. I mean they leaked some video footage of it last year didn't they? Or was that just a series of photoshopped images

[cof_3pc]

Successful troll is successful.

I think he should drink bleach. Just saying.

[Zombie_Boy]

Speaking about Broussard..

Swear to god I saw his face in a tree, should I chop it down and preserve it for all to see? Maybe it'll become a holy symbol for all us DNF lovers to worship in the hopes DNF will be released within our lifetimes!

[glade23]

Partying hard.

And we'll see who ends up drinking the bleach, champ.

serious trolling = please this account? what do you say damien?

[makeamicgoboom]

it's not trolling if it's with a purpose, you fantastic whining retard.

you will never play nuke nukem forever. understand, let go, move on. and stop whining.

[Damien_Azreal]

And with that this thread is over.

Basics... lawsuit settled. Nothing further info until details are released by either Take2 or 3DRealms. Done.
