Oh so he took a break from two years of heavy and loud criticism of all developers other than himself to make a game?

Interesting.

Wow. This thread is so fascinating. Like for the first time we're all sorta... talking. Like really talking. So I will share as well.

I recently broke up with my girlfriend of a year and a half (longest relationship I've ever had.) That was both a bummer and liberating. It's nice to have freedom again and sad that I have nothing to spend it on. Girls still baffle me. I get a lot of the friend card played on me.

My job is going great. As Nate stated starting a project at the beginning can be a bit daunting because you know it's a long time before you get to celebrate again... and part of your life is gone. It's sorta weird I can measure my life in games. I'll probably get out 12 to 15 before I'm through and I've already shipped four. That's pretty scary.

nintendo revo 4 life.

k thx

It was a toss up between Re4 and Shadow of the Colossus

until I realized RE4 is way better.

blizzard knows that mmos are where the money's at. they have FOUR MILLION SUBSCRIBERS FFS. granted, the chinese aren't paying $15 a month but they're raking in the cash like you wouldn't believe. run a few figures and you might be surprised.

which is also why they'd know not to produce another mmo yet because it would split their userbase.

they wont make another mmo for 5 or 6 years

It's actually really really fun.

It's pretty much the buggiest game i've ever played though. 50% FIFTY PERCENT of all sounds don't play. So sometimes you just fight in silence. The game will break occasionally entirely and freeze as well.

Having said that the game is a lot of fun. It's still better than Reloaded was.

So me and Fletch found this totally abandoned modern house out North of our place. Decided to take some shots.

I experienced this problem in that short period I felt doing textures for a steam product were worth doing.

They had a DOS BASED content compilation system that wouldn't work unless steam was running in the background. It was simply compiling a shader into a vft but if steam wasn't running it would refuse to do it. This turned into quite a problem when steam servers would go down and it was impossible to compile.

This feature was not available in offline mode. (Which launching in and of itself is mostly impossible short of unplugging your network cable and waiting for ten minutes.)

Yet another bullet point on a long list of reasons hl2 just ain't worth modding for.

OMG THOSE EYES!

i thought bia eib had a cool ending

::runs for cover::

Yes we will all start new characters and bring them to 70

don't lie to yourself

These are some pics I took in downtown plano while galavanting around with Fletch... I really like the water ones.

so it's in source and none of those little bumpy details on the textures are... normal mapped?

FOR SHAME

Actually I hated they hunger mods before they cost money.

This just makes my hatred both funny and warranted.

FTW!!!

mojo put it on the front page.

it wasn't a hax.

a spaghettio without meatballs is a sympony with no violins..

or something, i hate analogies

whatever danny boy

YOU ATE MY SPAGHETTIOS.

It's like a 9 person company

But reskinning HL2 models (poorly) and charging money, ehhhhhh

I'd buy DoD:S a second time before I buy this.

Hell I'd pay Klein 20 bucks to make me 3 textures that look purdy before I pay money for this.

answer me this.

whyyyy do we hunger?

I swear Manke has the WHINIEST ZOMBIES EVER!

Scale : Hi Neil Manke I would like to introduce myself to-

Manke: WHat? I have no use for you!@#!@#

Scale : But I- I'm scale... you use me to properly size things in the world

Manke : I have already grown bored with you, good day!

Scale : But-

Manke : I SAID GOOD DAY@!#

i bought fear, q4, and aoe3... like the three games on pc i've bought all year

It's not that weird. I got I think 8 free copies in total of BiA Rth30 and I still bought like 3 or 4 more... I gave out quite a few and kept some..

EiB I bought 3, and haven't gotten the free ones yet (as the publisher always waits to give you the free ones)

Those are all really good, have a life and energy to them. Really impressive

I love the little girl couting change in what appears to be a slaughter house

i only got 30, YOU GOT 37 FLETCH!>!@>#!?@
