Post by: MatthewPapa on August 30, 2004, 06:04:30 pm: I believe I have been playing FS ever since I first received the demo disk with my first computer in 1998. I have been enjoying it ever since (after i bought the full versions of course.)

Since 1999. FS1/SilentThreat/FS2

do you consider you self a expert or are you just getting your feet wet or are you novice?

Expert.

another question
do you have any other games such as mechwarrior, starwars galaxies, battle field 1942 half life, doom3, farcry , mechwarrior If you have any games other that n Fs list them below

My big ones are the Need For Speed Series, Dragon's Lair 3D, the Thief series, Unreal series, and an ancient DOS game called "Dungeons Of The Unforgiven".

Do you have or use any mods for freespace or the games i described above?

I played some campaigns using the 'inferno' mod for FS2, which I thought was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. I have never been able to sucessfully run any SCP build (My current video card is a Voodoo 3. It's been an awesome card, but it's time to retire it).

and how often do you use the mods?

Haven't played much FS lately as I'm trying to beat the Tournament of Champions in Need For Speed IV: High Stakes

once your on the internet how often do you stay on the net?

15 hours a day +

do you 1: surf
2: post here

Both. It depends on what debates I get into with Rictor.

or play multi on any of the games i described above

No games unless we're forced to work on holiday. In which case we play Galactic Battlegrounds and Unreal Tournament.

question number 5 whats your favorite IM TRillan ICQ yahoo or AIM?

AIM.

Well that is all i can of right now

Post by: Gloriano on August 31, 2004, 03:47:00 am: I been playing FS since Freespace 1 came so looooong time
Title: how long have you been playing?
Post by: Ransom on August 31, 2004, 04:25:27 am: Been playing Freespace since I played the demo of FS2 on a gaming magazine's Top 100 CD and liked it so much I got the full thing (got FS1 afterwards).

I have Doom 3, Far Cry (well, used to, sold it after I finished it because it was so depressingly bad), and every game in the Legacy of Kain, Silent Hill, Thief, and Prince of Persia series. Fair few others but those are my favourites (apart from Far Cry obviously).

Post by: aldo_14 on August 31, 2004, 08:53:59 am: Big John, Big John)
Ev'ry mornin' at the mine you could see him arrive
He stood six foot six and weighed two forty five
Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip
And everybody knew ya didn't give no lip to Big John.
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)

Nobody seemed to know where John called home
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone
He didn't say much, kinda quiet and shy
And if you spoke at all, you just said "Hi" to Big John.

Somebody said he came from New Orleans
Where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen
And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand
Sent a Loosiana fellow to the Promised Land-Big John
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)

Then came the day at the bottom of the mine
When a timber cracked and men started cryin'
Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast
And everybody thought that they'd breathed their last-'cept John

Through the dust and the smoke of this man-made hell
Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well
Grabbed a saggin' timber, gave out with a groan
And like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone-Big John
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)

And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove
Then a miner yelled out "There's a light up above!"
And twenty men scrambled from a would-be grave
Now there's only one left down there to save-Big John

With jacks and timbers they started back down
Then came that rumble way down in the ground
And then smoke and gas belched out of that mine
Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)

Now they never reopened that worthless pit
They just placed a marble stand in front of it
These few words are written on that stand
**At the bottom of this mine lies a one hell of a man** Big John
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)

FADE (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)

Title: how long have you been playing?
Post by: CP5670 on August 31, 2004, 12:08:15 pm: 1: 6 years. I picked up FS1 at some point in 1998 (box still has a $55 price tag, so it must have just come out when I got it) and have been into the series since then.

2: Too many to list. The main other game I play at the moment is UT2004. I have also been going through Deus Ex 2 a second time to see what kind of quirks I can conjure up. Last night I made a savegame in the Trier streets area where everyone inexplicably views all the rats as hostile; armed pawns attack them and unarmed ones run/cower from them. I have no clue what caused this. :wtf: :D

3: Don't have them on the HD right now, but I have tried out all the major FS mods and campaigns in the past. I have my PI mods enabled almost all of the time. I have tons of mods for the UT games too.

4: Always connected (cable), but I don't spend much time on forums or the internet in general these days, except in games.

5: Trillian obviously.
Title: Re: how long have you been playing?
Post by: Carl on August 31, 2004, 12:22:39 pm: since it first came out in 1998

Title: Re: how long have you been playing?
Post by: castor on August 31, 2004, 12:49:43 pm: how long have you been playing Freespace?
Since Xmas '98.
do you consider you self a expert or are you just getting your feet wet or are you novice?
I just play.
do you have any other games such as mechwarrior, starwars galaxies, battle field 1942 half life, doom3, farcry , mechwarrior
I only play FS2 and (sometimes) Wizardy 8.
If you have any games other that n Fs list them below
Yes, I got some uninteresting games here.
Do you have or use any mods for freespace or the games i described above? and how often do you use the mods?
Not really. But I have an intention to take a deeeper look at them sometime..
once your on the internet how often do you stay on the net?
do you 1: surf
2: post here
or play multi on any of the games i described above
A couple of hours a day. Forum surfing, mainly.
whats your favorite IM TRillan ICQ yahoo or AIM?
Got ICQ on my Win install.
Title: how long have you been playing?
Post by: TopAce on August 31, 2004, 01:22:09 pm: #1: FS2: Since Christmas, 2000. FS1: God knows, when the gaming magazine called PC Guru enclosed FS1 as a full game.
#2: I think I am an expert.
#3 and #4: X-wing series + Balance of Power, Quake 3, Jedi Knight trilogy, Starcraft, Rebellion, Behind the Magic(which is not exactly a game, but it is still good to spendl time with.), Galactic Battlegrounds, Rogue Squadron, Medal of Honour(which is the worst game I have ever played), Grand Prix 3, Red Alert 2.
#5: I played the terrible Derelict, the interesting Homesick and the funny Deus Ex Machina. I completed all three merely once. Derelict is crap, Homesick is long and too difficult, the Deus Ex Machina is not necessary to be replayed.
#6: Several hours a day, I am online mostly in the evening and at night. I spend 90% of my surfing time browsing HLP. Take a look at my post count and my average post by day and take the conclusion if I post here.
#7: More people have ICQ here, but I also have Yahoo!. Yahoo! is simpler to use and has more features, but ICQ is also a good messanger.
