this is not going to end well

/me hits DD with five point exploding heart punch

It's the best movie I have seen in the theatres for a long long time.

most awesome characters, EVER

It's a confirmation. Look at the Brother in arms logo.

I still cant find it

Ehm... you're right <_< It's gone...

THEY SWITCHED ENGIENE OVER NIGHT D: D: D: D: D: D:

Since I saw it there yesterday...

OMGZ, SO MANY QUOTES

mmmmm .. . .

/me buys

I'm guessing it's thier own engine

If it was someones liscenced engine, usually it's mentioned in the press release as them "teaming up" with that tech

that light bloom effect makes me happy in the pants

My brother is coding it, he's a computer science junior at UCSD

I made a few more ships, here is a scale shot with all 10 enemy ships so far, I'm planning on having 12.

Also if you check out what we got so far we added some better weapon fx with lights and added some test asteroids.

It's an animated gif of a dood getting pumped in the pooper by another dude. You might wanna get that fixed.

indeed, it may be within the realm of possibility.

you might also consider that counterstike didn't go record all original sounds for thier weapons.

yea, sound is gonna be a new one for me, but I'm excited to try out messing with them.

I will smuggle everyone non-xsi exporters along with my multitude of tutorials and other editing goodies once the game actually comes out.

8 enemy ships so far . . . shooting for 12.

started coding as well, you can check on our progress by going here

(note, it uses wildtangent, which will make you download a few things to get it to run)

what if god was one of us . . .

just a slob like one of us.

there was lots of dialouge in vietcong besides the commands you specifically ordered. During points in the mission, say, when you went into a vc tunnel for the first time, you character would say stuff to the effect of "why am I always the one that has to go down" or something. They had no actual impact to the gameplay, but by the end of the game, I was assosciating the voice and attitude of the recorded dialouge with the way I played my character.

I didn't have type to read that huge post, but from the gist of the replies I think your asking if first person voice acting works while still making you feel like a part of the story. I think it works just fine as long as it's well done. Example: Vietcong

I could see how it could go horribly wrong if not done well tho.

HUXXXXX!!!!!!!!!! HURR HURR HURR I GOT U ALL! IM SO RAD

. . . . yea it was a joke : /

better one next year, I promise.

I thought this thread was gonna be making textures out of pictures of Urban.

maybe make it pay like the SA forums?? But there really isn't enough content to warrant people wanting to do that.

Well, not really goodbye forever. Today in the mail I recieved my acceptance letter from USD (university of san diego), I haven't really been saying much about it, but for the past year or so I have been trying to get back into school to finish my architecture degree that I started 2 years ago before I dropped out to work in the game industry. Also, this will allow me to live back at home with the people I love. In a few months I will be moving back home and working on my degree full time, and I probably wont have much time do to anything internet or game related, since I will be in the studio most of the time. I thought the game industry would be for me, but after these few years I have realized that my real passion lies in drawing perspective sketches and building cardboard models. Thanks to everyone at mapcore who has been around to bullshit with me over the years. I guess this marks my second retirement from level design, your truly an old school friend if you remember the first
