MIB88 in downloadnumbers (though, obviously, incomplete),

Erm i dont think so.

Here are few links that host wm2 mod. I didnt take all the smaller hosts cause they eather had couple of hundred downloads only or they where missing download counters wich would not prove anything.
http://mods.moddb.com/5078/wasteland-merc-2/downloads/
http://www.gamespot.com/pages/gamespace ... 0418&mode=
http://www.fileplanet.com/150702/150000 ... Merc-2-Mod
http://files.filefront.com/Wasteland+Me ... einfo.html
http://www.vgpro.com/file/2846_Wastelan ... 2.zip.html
plus 2 magazines that included it in their dvd
Duck and cover download section is gone so cant link to that.

Also; any links out there that weren't a) started by you and b) have people saying they like it (no, not just "try it", actually "I like it") and c) not on your website?

Good going only replying to one part of the post, haris, and not even reading what I actually said for it.

That one guy in that thread looks to be pretty quickly mocked and ridiculed to me.

As for those numbers, looks like you have about 20,000 downloads spread over five websites, over 24 months. MIB's megamod has 2000 downloads from one site, in 3 months. And that's just a mod-pack, not a total conversion mod that has one guy dedicated to posting about it everywhere. Colour me unimpressed, haris, very unimpressed.

What are you trying to say, anyway, haris? That your guerilla campaign to spread word of your shitty mod works? To spread it, no doubt. That people like it? A handful of idiots, sure.

Quick question; if a real, non-sucking total conversion mod is ever released, do you really think it won't wipe out your laughable piece of shit?

WM2 had 2000 downloads from gamespot in first 2 weeks. I dare you to host wm2 on nma and see what happens.

Thats like saying if a friendly fallout webpage with more fallout content than nma would be made would it wipe out nma and dac? To start with we all know its never going to happen and no it would not wipe it out.

And here is why, i am quoting a conversation from wm forums.

Anyway move to the topic, this is how I found out about the mod:
While was playing arcanum, one of the friend told me that if I like arcanum then I must like fallout 2, waste land merc mod would be even better (he plays it).

So I brought a copy of the game and download the mod to play. I didn't bother with the offical game and played the mod straight away.

My friend was right, it was so much fun. I am gona be busy in this Christmas.

Omg you didnt play original fallout 2? Now that feels way to wierd.

I am very busy (got so many work to do, just graduate from uni), friend told me the mod is better than offical campaign, so I might as well skip it and spending more time with more fun staff which in this case is the merc mod.

ahahahaha. Holy shit. Thanks for the laugh, Haris.

'nother question; do you have a reading disability? Seriously.

Also, Mutants Rising is back

You may be right there. Just be careful nobody tries to infiltrate the Wasteland Merc organisation and steal your fantastic innovative design ideas

Wait, you're high on crack when thinking up ideas for Wasteland Merc? That explains so much...

Yea, thats just cause you are stupid, kk.

No, Haris, YOU are fucking stupid.

Surely Haris' millions of fans will build up some temples, where they can worship him and rejoice at his concoction.
Wasteland Merc sucks - I've tested it, was outraged and uninstalled it very soon.
It's ridiculous to insist on the contention, that Wasteland Merc has any fan base.
Obviously Haris has mixed up fans with victims.

There's actually a difference these days?

Wolfman Walt · Post by **Wolfman Walt** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 12:06 pm

My question is - with all these fans and shit, how come I've yet to see one person on here (or NMA I imagine) ever, and I mean EVER, defend Wasteland Merc, Haris not withstanding. I mean, it's so MASSIVELY popular, that one of them has to go to a fallout site. It only makes sense, they're fallout fans and NMA and DaC are the two biggest Fallout sites. So why is Haris the ONLY one who defends it?

Not really. It's an interesting question, if old fashioned fanboyism still has a future.
Apparently such things will work in other ways nowadays. The fan's binding to a game isn't a binding to a series no more - and the game industry is heading for short and easy consumable "play and forget" games. The franchises are abused to enlarge the audience only, and the fan communities are abused for covering.
Fanboy=fucked boy, that's the formula.

It's funny that a thread did get a million posts again, but instead of two people discussing (see: harris + some idiot) how difficult Quest #1294791264.3 B is it's Kharn ripping his asshole so far open that Goatse could crawl up inside and take a nap.

Brother None · Post by **Brother None** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 3:41 pm

Whose asshole?

Also, people, c'mon, Haris smokes crack when writing Wasteland Merc. Don't tell me that doesn't explain *everything*

jetbaby · Post by **jetbaby** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 3:49 pm

his = Harris. I didn't realize I never clarified that in the post. I'm tired.

Cause regular people have better things to do than argue in threads with assholes. Pretty much same reazon why you dont see alot of people coming here defending world of warcraft, oblivion and all those game some of you hate.

Here i give you an example of pm i gotten from a member. Not gonna say who it is for obvious reasons.

I believe in your mod and what it stands for, just dont tell anyone.
These fuckers will flame me quicker then a toilet stop in rattle snake country.
Im hoping to play your next mod, good as always i hope.

Dont tell anyone remember, these guys are assholes and take any weakness as i chance for hate, i mean im hanging on by a thread alone for some compashion ive shown and common sense.
Oh and if ya need any help with anything i can a hand spare and will do anything i can.

Plus i did link to nma http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewto ... erc#288000 where guy said he likes wm and what did he get for it. Bounch of retarded negative responses.
So Wolfman Walt start thinking a bit before you post your bullcrap.
