It appears that the publisher has blatantly circumvented the rules in order to peddle sexually explicit material to our youth

Youth.

A definition of youth:

Quote

the time of life between childhood and maturity

So pre-mature age. AND THE GAME WAS RATED MATURE.

enough said.

Done.

There's 3 of you that I didn't see a city marker for. 2 of your names are in pink and have a different icon, look in Norway. The other, Fletch, I didn't see a Providence marker, but I saw what appeared to be the capitol building just above where the search took me, so I used that anyways.

and We have the right, to incorrect Grammar! on an informal? means, of Communication?!

can we go back to the days of just sueing mmo makers because the game got their loser kid addicted then the kid became even more of a loser because he never ever went outside again, and only ate pizza and drank soda for the rest of his life, which was cut short when he attempted to trade a very rare item for another rare item, but the other guy ripped him off, so he killed himself. yeah.

"That parent doesn't necessarily know that mods are available for their 13-year-old to go out and find that could radically change the product," said ESRB vice president Patricia Vance. "If the rating itself is being undermined by third-party modification, I think we as an industry need to figure out what to do about that."

On a lot of MP games I see a "ESRB notice: Game experience may change online" (something of that nature). PUT A GOD DAMN "EXPERIENCE MAY CHANGE WITH GAME MODIFICATIONS" LABEL ON IT YOU IDIOTS.

(Btw, note that it says "13-year-old" on a game PREVIOUSLY RATED MATURE and NOW ADULTS ONLY, GOGO STUPID AMERICAN PARENTS)

ahaha yeah

Wow I have a crapload of more people to add.

It's like 100F degrees in my room atm, so I'll consider doing it when I'm not being cooked.

And now I'm starting to hear from general idiots that "EA bought Valve".

GG.

If this gets Valve's titles on tv commercials, then yay

and an annoyingly long ea logo when you start any future valve games...

Proof that SA breeds dumbasses (or in their words, fuckheads, retards, and complete morons)

Cool, but it looks useless.

Except for things like the photoshop commands where I don't know the hotkeys.

yeah that's fucked up

so where's that porn kept then?

Quote from Kosmo

See, now that is a thing I'm not really that sure, I have played NS for several years, in several clans, and I can't actually put my mind on a map that has extensive amounts of crates and that they would alter the gameplay in to a way or another, we have had clan matches almost every map ever built on NS and I have never tought that someone had an upperhand because of crates or any other map element.

Don't get me wrong, there are alot of crates and barrels and such in the maps, but they are not "unnaturally" in anyplace like in the middle of nowhere without apparent reason (like they are in CS, where they are used purely to alter the map layout), and aliens can walk on walls, fly and blink so crates don't create obstacles like they do in CS.

Think about the poor little skulks. Some crates are positioned to conceal a skulk so that a marine will pass by the crate, unaware of the skulk hiding behind it, and then the marine gets bit. Same can almost be applied to marines. In faceoff, the upper doorway to the alien hive, if I have no marines to go into the hive with me and I don't have high level, theres a crate right next to the doorway that I hide behind for cover. If that crate wasn't there, I could have been skulk food more often, resulting in different game results.

Also in ns_lost, there's a hallway that marines almost always used to relocate to, near alpha hive, there used to be a res node next to this hallway. In the end of this hallway are a few crates. Some comms drop specific structures cornered between the wall and the crate so the structure has less surface visible for skulks to bite.

As for "for no apparent reason", many crates in ns maps seem to just be there, rarely do these maps show signs of a crane to lift the crates (SOME do, but rarely) or conveyor belts. And the doorways are too small to indicate any heavy machinery (ie forklift of the future) to move the crates. Hell, you can have a room with only 2 tiny doorways, and the crate inside is way bigger than the doorways.

Except for these 2, I just did a shitload of updating. Mr "You put me in the wrong city that has almost the same fucking spelling so it's an easy mistake" is fixed, I added everyone else that needed to be added excluding these 2 newcomers, and I put half of the people into the new folder system. I'm under the influence of lack of sleep, so I probably have a few goofs, if you see em, REPORT EM OR ELSE!! I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!!

Oh, and I'm excluding game devs for awhile. I still have em in my google earth memory, but just for now they're not being saved with the rest of the file.

Meh, a lot of ns maps have crates*, just hardly as much as most cs maps.

*Gameplay altering, too.

but how is cs a bad example of over using crates as structures to use as cover, something that effects gameplay?

Quote from Kosmo

Actually it IS very interesting, there are not that many inanimate objects like crates and barrels that have served various purposes but not actually having a real impact on gameplay comparing to, oh lets say, doors or guns, both things that we have seen plenty and people just don't seem to get enough of them.

CS, where most mappers can't think outside the box (pun intended) and can only provide crates for cover.

In my opinion, that's gameplay related (being your source of cover) opposed to if it the boxes were to the side on shelves and had no use other than decoration.

Quote from Mojo

considering that I am the one that actually does any of the fixing, I am the one to email/message

so does that make mikey useless? is mojo our true leader?
