Title: Something you should all be proud of!
Post by: miskat on April 26, 2007, 02:40:20 am
So, seeing all the hard work you all did, and the easier to use installers that people have worked hard on, I thought you would find it gratifying, heartwarming, and generally fuzzy to hear this:

Last weekend my dorm hall housed a lan-party, consisting of around 30 computers--mostly brought from peoples dorms--for a gaming competition.  Two games were hosted: counter strike and Freespace2.

Every installation of FS2 was FS2SCP.  =)  We got a lot of questions, a lot of interest, and a lot of happy new fans.  About 15, that I know of.

Congradulations people, you all kick the proverbial arse.

I don't play FS2Multi for a good reason: I would die within a minute. :p
But that sounded like tons of fun! Freespace shall never die!

Hmm, what commandline options did you use?

Snipers playing with big heads cheat anybody?
I don't play counterstrike, never got into it, counterstrike source is very attractive though, i should really try hl2 deathmatch. Essentially i can't play counterstrike very well. I just remember back in the old days before hl2 came out, there were people playing as snipers using the big heads cheat :lol: I was just like man that's so ****ing lame, but who's gonna know besides the guy playing the sniper on his machine with the big heads cheat :lol:
Of course fs2 i can actually play. Fs2 multi was one of the few games that performed well over 56k. Fs2 was awesome, it handled lag just perfectly, until i ran into a build your own mecha first person shooter game called axis that did even better over 56k.
Axis Arena (http://www.realarcade.com/game?tps=eu_&gameid=axis&t=wide&p=games&sp=download&ssp=actionadventure&gpart=axis&pcode=RN&cpath=R1R&rsrc=eu_dir_games&src=eu_dir_games)
Some of you may have played it, it had awesome multiplayer, and i felt sorry for the people who reviewed the game before it got fixed because it worked perfectly when i got it. Too bad people stopped playing, talk about a game that requires speed and reflexes, that **** was fun. Of course i just bought the game for 20$, looked for the executable installer, and uninstalled real arcard :lol:
