Shadowstrider

Crimson Skies is very fun on Xbox. Good controls, very intuitive. Its got a cool soundtrack, and gameplay's solid... Not that it has anything to do with Van Buren, mind you

... OK... what is it that players want? izometric? no consol-port? Thats what you want? What do the players want?

Yes, we know Microsoft is TEH SATAN!!! If you actually posted with some semi-logical points, it'd be worth awell thought post. Instead, you get... damn no ignore list.

I'll tell you everything... It is a project, being developed in-house, at Obsidian Entertainment. It may, or may not, have something to do with the BioWare & Obsidian Ent. partnership. I think that is all that has been publically announced.

Out, in... I'm not caught up on Pink Floyd lore, being I'm not a big fan.

If there is music with a chorus/verse/general words, I probably will not buy it. Unless the words are like the LotR chanting of Khazad dun, or the choirs of an ancient race hanging on the air as if the place had memories... Not, "hello [echo]... is there anybody out there?" crapsa. I am a traditionalist, in this sense, I suppose.

IWD1 is my favorite soundtrack for any game, movie or anything... ever... Besides, I would argue that because his music can fit any genre is what makes it good, as long as it helps to inspire the correct emotion.

*Crosses fingers for Jeremy Soule, if not for the good music, to see someone stuff themselves into a meat grinder, or simply prove them a liar.*

Wisdom is the ability to apply knowledge through thought. If something is not fully thought through (rushed judgement), it cannot be wise.

Apparently, its not on my forums either... Its there for me because I admin them(obviously). I'll look into ignore, and delete own post features(though I wonder why you would want to delete your own posts )

The ability to delete your own posts is also missing. It should be an option if someone hasn't responded to your post yet. It should be under Edit... or maybe I hacked it into my forums. Let me check.

Something I've been designing for my system is like bullet-time. I'll use archery as an example. You're standing ther shooting arrows @ X. There are 2 ways to instigate the slow-down. Manual, where you click a button(or use hotkey), and suddenly, the action in real-time slows dramatically, (6 seconds could take as long as a minute, or whatever). An example of manual would be your arrow is notched and you were aiming at foe X, but out of the side, you suddenly have a shot on foe Y. In RT there is no time to declare a new target, but in slow-time, you can declare the new foe as the target of your new attack(at an increased cost). Then there is automatic slow-down, this arises when certain events trigger a possible response. Example. Your arrow is notched, and you're about to fire, but you notice someone has already fired at you. You can fire off your shot, then dodge, giving you less chance, or you could forget the shot and dodge the arrow, at an increased cost. Thats just how I see my system working in a RT scenario.

TB is FAR from simply slowed-down, reality. As an example, if you're running in reality, you would be signifigantly harder to hit, then if standing still. In TB you're standing still, and as a result it is impossible to apply a movement penalty to attack rolls (or damage avoidance, however you wish to handle it). Likewise, in a melee focused game, you could easily exploit actions per round. Play Fallout 2, and fight one of the Geckos west of Arroyo. You can hit and then outpace them, so you would never get hit(they never even swing). This is unrealistic. TB combat is simplified reality, for the sake of tactics. That said, TB offers a lot more in terms of tactical combat, because you have time to think. If you could do something like bullet-time, or the D&D Heroes slow-down feature, a RT game could do VERY well, if not better, then TB, as long as all the features are implemented well. Some rules systems do not allow this, however.

If Fargo DOES make a wasteland RPG on PC I'de be pleasently surprised. I am not getting my hopes up.

Being my opinion doesn't mean it is personal. If that was the case every opinion post here is 1/3 of a ban. It is a topic the mods were not fond of, but it isn't a personal topic, it is a board topic like the poll. It doesn't just concern me. And haven't you posted several posts in this thread that fit your definition of personal? LOL Anyway, I am outahere, I asked overseerII to delete my acount, you can have this board, hope you enjoy it! No. You had a personal bias(opinion) about the moderation team. Opinion against anything else is discussable, but your personal bias(opinion), against Fionavar should've been taken to the administration. Try again. If you choose to leave, that is your prerogative. I just wish you could overcome this immaturity, and post like a normal netizen.

Who said anything about that poll? There were several threads where you said the forum was going downhill because the Iplay mods were being made mods over here(Fionavar). That is your opinion, and thus personal. You should've taken it to the administration.

It is my opinion that you deserved the warning according to the rules presented in the FAQ. What the F.A.Q.? Read rule #7:

No, but grovelling woul have kept it 1/3, common sense would have kept me off these boards to begin with. You do realize, you've already earned like 7/3 warnings. The moderation team is being MORE then lenient with you. They've tolerated your repeated insults, and rude comments. I have nothing against you Karak, but you're playing the victom, when you're the convict.

I heard that Invision was no longer free. If this is true, how come it lacks such basic functions as "ignore?" Invision Board is still free, to my knowledge. Though, I haven't checked in awhile.

Karzak just wants "teh dramatics."

Don't worry Sammael... I'll find some way to get an ignore feature on invisionboard, and send instructions to The Guildmaster on how its done.

No.

Is this standard Visceris, or Visceris 2.0 talking? I want to know which one to loathe.

If you manage to convince 50 people to stop whining about Fallout 3, I will not only convert Islam, but I will also open all posts* with "In the name of Allah the merciful and compassionate." *All posts for 1 day.

Yes there is, not to get banned. Send them to The Guildmaster, and tell him/her about your past(assuming there is one). Whining and moaning about it is not "teh intel-u-jhunt"
