Hopefully, Feargus will fill KotOR2 with a shitload of 133+ particle effects and finally fulfill that particular unhealthy obsession of his.

Feargus has a reputation for believing in the so-called "SLAM-DUNK" projects, which take little time to develop and bring in loads of cash. Thus far, not a single "SLAM-DUNK" project of his (HoW, IWD2) was a success.

Sounds like a plan to me.

he he A Realistic Inventory in an RPG ha ha, what fucktard suggested that? I did not suggest a realistic inventory system. Rather, I suggested that characters should not be able to haul shitloads of bulky stuff (miniguns, PA, etc.) around. Of course, all the little powergamers get pissed, because m...

Keep making derogatory Jefferson comments and you'll be on my ignore list as well.

3.5E rangers have 6+Int skill point per level.

Also, my 56k seems to be better than most, it routinely pulls about 20k/s... not that it still doesn't suck. This is, simply put, not possible. "56k" means that the modem has a maximum download speed of 56 kilo bits per second. Since 1 Byte = 8 bits, 56kbit/sec = 7 kByte/sec. 7kB/sec is t...

and every single one has been criticized for being an unpure (and flawed) version of DnD. BG2 literally raped AD&D Second Edition rules. But it was a pretty damn good game. Who gives a fuck about the rules if the game is fun to play? Incidentally, who were the critics? The reviewers who gave it...

Because every successful D&D game in the past five years was real-time?

Can we please make this thread a sticky? I mean, it is more than sufficient to show why Josh doesn't visit DAC.

The funny thing is that there ARE no FO developers in IPLAY anymore. They succeeded from the evil corporate giant and began making games they thought would be good, regardless of what the fuck the public wants... true artits... Troika *sniff* I love you guys... Yeah, ToEE is a particularly high for...

I[nfinity] E[ngine] games have sold much, much more than the recent T[urn] B[ased] games. Like Civilization III...? Honestly, I don't know the sales figures for Civ3. Of course, the fact that I was talking about turn based CRPGs is conveniently ignored. However, I daresay that Warcraft III sold a w...

Um, I think Tim Cain just said he hadn´t taken the game anywhere. PnP rules are turn-based and so is TOEE, so where did he take the game? He didn't. Of course, the main difference between PnP and CRPG combat is that PnP combat cannot be real-time unless you are into LARP, whereas CRPGs can ...

TB can work in a CRPG, so Tim Cain says, "Why bother changing it?" What's wrong with that statement? First of all, to clarify, I am generally in favor of TB over RT. Yes, TB can work in a CRPG. It worked in FO and FO2 (although it was far inferior to, say, JA2's implementation of TB comba...

I was buying the time constraint excuse, the size shouldn't be an issue anymore. Really? Do you know how long it takes me to download anything on a 56K modem? Even if you ignore people from backwater countries (like myself), I know of plenty of gamers from the U.S. who are still on dial-up. And let...

Sorry guys, Sawyer wins. For once, MTC wasn't allowed to get away with his "Holier than Thou" blanket statements.

CRPGs cannot play the same way as PnP. Anybody who's ever played PnP for more than five minutes knows that.

No, it's because you are psychotic...

Odds for BIS being sold off before FO3 is completed. 0%. Who'd buy BIS anyway? IPLY closing it's doors before FO3 is completed. 75%. And that's being optimistic. FO3 being rushed out as a buggy mess in a box. 50%. They've already started cutting features because of resource problems. FO3 being every...

Why is everybody talking about Fallout's popularity? Fallout 1 and 2 sold less then freaking Icewind Dale. While the enthusiasm of fans from various Eastern European countries (including my own) is commendable, they are all going to pirate the game anyway.

Whoever said that the blue vehicle looks like an 1980s Jeep is quite clearly blind. It is a late 1950s/early 1960s design, with back end resembling a Corvette and front end looking somewhat like the Studebaker Golden Hawk.
