Rantsies...

Anyone who has access to HLP Grognards forum might have seen the 'Stats?' thread?

The closing of that thread and similar is why I get disgruntled at HLP. So silly. =/
=============


But yah... is there a reason it is 4:41am once again?

I like to look at the stars, the sky and the full moon.

Even the animals rest though, faithfull jacko my dog, as well as the birds.

I like the serenity of night, the comfort of peacefullness.

Is it because I like lonliness?

I seem to embrace it at every point.

Yet am I sad? Or happy being lonely?

Gah, I have no idea.


Well, that was a pretty cool rant. :D
/discuss which pills I should be taking\ :p

Be greatful you don't have access to the BWO Internal. :/

So, okay, we're done with the second episode and working on third...

HEY, LET'S INTRODUCE NEW WEAPONS AND TOTALLY SCREW UP THE BALANCE FOR EVERYTHING!

<,< >,>

You didn't hear that from me, though.

LoL.

Going by the screenys its looking good. At least you guys have missions. :p
Advantages of making a campaign in the FS2 universe. :)

We need another big campaign release soon I think. I sometimes get a whiff of stagnant water when I visit the modding forums...

's what killed TVWP, too. We had the campaign progressing nicely, but then Goob hired Swamp Thing and SW wanted to make factional ships for every faction...

Ugh.

That's all I have to say on the matter.

LOL. :p We did something similar for ST:R... "Hey, let's add two extra missions [which eventually expanded to three] so we can devote more of the campaign to fighting the Hades!" They're great missions, and I certainly think the campaign is better with them, but they introduced a huge delay. :p

Actually the main beef I have against the BWO team is Ace's attitude toward "drive-by suggestions". Every other campaign I've done that to - Scroll, Inferno, MG to name a few - has taken them in the spirit they were offered, i.e. as hopefully helpful input from a third party. Ace treats it like a federal case whenever I post, which is why I rarely visit the BWO forums now.

Agreed. Port v3.0 should be coming out within the month, if that helps. :)

Agreed. :( I'm going to see what I can do about that once ST:R is done.

Hopefully I can start contributing to TAP in a meaningful way over the next few months. I can produce good models but the texturing is always compromised and it does me head in.

Note how I'm placing the blame on Swamp Thing, Bee Tee Double You...

Uh... are you hinting at a subtext I'm missing, or something? :?

I should share at least part of the blame since I jumped on the same bandwagon. :p

Oh I blame you too!!! >..>, but you didn't leave the community afterward, so 90% blame shift --> Swamp Thing.


:p
