Stopping in and saying Hello.
« on: March 13, 2009 04:39 am CDT »
Hey it's MegaTron. What's up? Where is everyone at?  :o

Give me some feedback. If you moved on to a new game, post it up, I'll check it out. Looking for something to waste some time on.

Miss all the fun times in PCRPG, just sad i never tried Trpg sooner.

Sup!
I play a lot of Natural Selection (unknownworlds.com) which is a FPS/RTS of Marines vs. Aliens.

There are 3 main types of game for it:

NS - typical RTS teamplay; my favorite mode.  Each side runs around building resource gathering equipment, shooting/biting/gassing/swiping/mauling each other.  The Aliens have 1 starting hive, but can build 3 total.  Each hive affords one kind of upgrade chamber (movement, defense and sensory.)  Each type of chamber then gives the individual life form a choice from 3 different options per chamber... for example, a Movement has Silence, Adrenalin and Celerity; you don't make sound, you regen your energy faster, you move faster. 

CO - "Combat" where each person makes their own personal upgrade decisions.  Still a team game, but each person could have completely different upgrades or life forms.  Only one hive and no Infantry Portals (just kill the Command Chair), but this does not limit you upgrades.  To get upgrades, you get experience by killing or being near killed enemy beings.  Each point can be spent however you like, so long as you have enough points to get the upgrades you want.  It can be a lot of fun, or totally one sided and quick.

NS-siege - I don't care for this mode too often.  It's a kind of map type where both sides are separated for about 5 minutes, usually enough time to get the important upgrades and a third hive going.  After five, the main door that separates the sides is opened up automatically.  3-12 (depends on the map) more minutes pass and then a "siege room" opens.  Marines and Aliens try to cram in to that room and build chambers or sieges before the other side; who ever takes the siege room almost always ends up winning, but the marines still some times pull off a direct hive assault.

I have also started playing "Zombie Panic! Source" which can be a lot of fun, or really annoying.
Both sides (survivors and zombies) have their differing merits of barricading, smacking, weapon sharing, ammo sharing, seeing in the dark, lunging, blowing things up, etc...  It's a game you kind of just have to try playing to see if you like it... of course, a lot of people think it is some how like "Left 4 Dead" but from what I have seen... I think they are very different games.

Also, I mess with pardus.at some times a week.  It can be a lot of fun, or really boring.  It can be free, or you can pay a yew bucks a month for some premium features.  You'd just have to play it to see if you like it.

Hey mega!

People still play NS?  I keep waiting for a Source version, but it has yet to come.  Some Source Sven Coop would be fun too.
As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

KoRo just fun and games! I never thought i was that bad in game. I did go after the trouble makers. I'll admit i did turn into a prick after some rules were changed so i couldn't go after people like Focus all the time. Pretty much why i stopped playing the game. Lost interest. In the end I gave my pw to a really low rl, YeTi.  8)

Lidge, awesome I took a peek at the site. 108 players :P. But the game does look interesting. I will download it and take it for a spin. I've never heard of it though. I'll google for the other two.

Hi Part, I see a T2pcrpg coming? Keep us updated. I'll reinstall my T2 just for that. How's that new Phenom II of yours working out? And what is it overclocked at?

They scrapped the Source project and are working on their own engine now, which looks freaking amazing!
NS is still great!! Just like Tribes!!

For NS2 news/updates.
Some of the videos they have posted are simply amazing to my interest in tools, textures and effects... they consider their engine sub par but I think it looks good compared to most small studios.
Check it out!

Hey Megatron, how ya been?  I'm currently playing Call Of Duty 4 Call Of Duty:World At War and Battlefield2.  You should jump in on the action sometime.  I'm waiting for the PC version of Battlefield Bad Company 2 to come out :).

I haven't been playing much games lately except TRPG.  School work and job hunting has been stopping me from having too much fun.
