You really don't know what an engine is, do you.

*Rolls Eyes*

Oh jeez, why don't you enlighten me as to what a game engine is.

Edit:

If this is why you ask if I know what a game engine is:

say a 3D front end right on top of the existing engine

then yeah, I should have mentioned that the existing engine would need to be modified to handle 3D coordinates, but the game formula as far as economy, trade skills etc could be reused. Picky people, to much time on their hands.

The sad truth is that UO is still the best MMORPG on the market

Absolutely, the have the best engine on the market, they should just make a brand new front end to it, say a 3D front end right on top of the existing engine, that would revitilize UO right there. UO, from a functionality stand point, is way better than anything on the MMo market right now.

PVP made UO, go play EQ and 'pull' all the mobs to your safe little corner of the zone, such a lame ass play style.

what coast of Novaworld are people here usually playing on?

East Coast Servers, name is 'Furious Nick', always try to get on 100+ person games, usual servers are Hurricane 2, Joint Ops ... and ... dammit ... at work and can't remember ... anyways, usually there are 3 150 person servers. I'll look for you sometime.

No doubt, a person CAN play JO behind a router. Not sure why people expect Developers to tell them how to use one.

Wow, DS threads own all the D3 threads. The great publicity this guy gets for free, maybe he is pretty smart, he's probably thanking all the people here for the huge thread. I've never bought any of his games but it is intriging to a point now...

HL2 better be REALLY freaking good cause if it isn't I'll pass it up just because of STEAM. Yes, I dislike STEAM that much.

Ahhh the old demo after release trick, nice.


Unforunately it won't stop me from buying it

Bring it!!!!!!!

YYYEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!! (Howard Dean scream)

No doubt. This board game rocked sooooo many years ago, I think there already exits a Board Game to PC TBS cut over already. Not cutting edge graphics mind you, but it is on the PC.

Since you've had a great experience with the game I assume that th earlier pathes helped and that the game is worth buying.

Yeah, so far so good. The Snipers aren't really that much of a problem, I get capped once and a while but hey, thats how it goes sometimes, just have to play smart, never run in a straight line and use trees as cover. I have heard bullets fly by me and hit the ground, I know it was a Sniper, but I just run a random zig zag pattern and make it hard for them. Also, there are vehicles with guns to help you find and kill Snipers in relative safety; Jeeps, APC's, attack Helo's, etc. There are not a lot of 'Attack Helo's' but thats good as they do a lot of damage, too many would greatly imbalance the game, especially the rocket gunships, just nasty.

All's I can say is, at the end of the night, it's hard to log off and stop playing.

Oh yeah, I played on the same team as the infamous 'fredrickson' the other day, he did a good job.

I must have missed the part where everywhere you go in space is filled with fuzzy gas clouds and nebulae.

They got confused with Star Trek, much like they got confused as how to make a fun game.

1) I play fine behind a router, have since day one.

Any sign of new vehicules to offset the camping?

2) I don't understand the question... what camping? You mean Sniper camping? If so, then how would a 'vehicle' fix that anyways. I haven't found the Snipers to be much of a problem even when they do camp (if they do), they can't kill everyone and they are easily found after firing a couple rounds.

I don't own the game I just want to know how much has been fix

Not sure what you are looking for in regards to fixes, I haven't run across any game bugs that have hurt my experience as of yet. They need to optimize the rendering code a bit to help the FPS situation (I get 15-50 FPS, 15 when really busy) but thats all I can think of.

So far this game appears to be a huge rip off of BF1942.

Thats cause it is. Even the Devs will tell you BF1942 is the template for this game.

I just bought ALL my stuff from newegg, a P4 3.0 Ghz CPU, 2 Gb of RAM and a ASUS 800E Deluxe Mobo, everything worked GREAT and my stuff was shipped very quickly. Good stuff, I would recommend newegg to anyone.

Oh it's fred all right. He's looking to put a medic squad together so it can be like MASH or something he says

Ahh yeah, I think he put that request out on the JO General Forum. Wanted everyone who was a Medic to use MASH as a tag.

yeh, I always use that screen name nowadays...

Alright, I'll look for ya. Are you going to play East Coast servers or West coast... or International? I'm 'Furious Nick' in JO.

so look for me in the 150 player servers!

Are you going to use 'space captain' within JO? We should get together ingame (people on this board that play JO; Hump, myself, you, etc). Maybe even through a tag on to our name.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I saw fredrickson in-game yesterday. He was doing a little flame-baiting but otherwise acted like a pretty normal chap. As a matter of fact he's a rather good JO player.

I saw that name but wasn't sure if it was 'him' or not, next time I will say hello.. heh. Had a great time playing JO last night.

I have found that a couple maps in AAS that I really enjoy with 100 + people on the server. One being Dormant Volcano and the other Twin islands, these two are not enormous but big enough for almost constant action whole giving a little bit of space. Some of the maps are just two big. I'm going to try out the Co-op missions next, they sound like fun.

All gamers are dorks you cum rag.

Hey wow, you learned about the cum rag huh? Graduate from using a sock did ya? Well good for you, when you grow up you'll make some ugly fat woman really happy. Have a good 4th

PCG gave CoH lots of love in the latest issue, even there resident MMO hater likes CoH, gotta say something about it. I'll definetly give it a try when they release a demo.
