I dunno if you play Quake3 or not, or if you played Q2 but Weapons Factory is one helluva cool mod.

I have been lucky enough to be in the WFA alpha testing team, and let me tell you it is very very nice.

They made a movie to hold you over until the public beta is released (Saturday), and i am in it! heh.

Check it out at:

Man does it look good, if you like class-based mods you will love this!

Quake 3 good, mods cool, getting fragged by Major at "I can win" bad. But hey, it takes a few minutes for anyone to learn a game. Keep us posted on where we can get the new mod.

I'm still gonna stick to my review of "the big fps" out there

UT = Fun
Q3A = Pretty

The single player in Q3A just blows goat nuts. UT is no Half-Life, but it's still more fun than Q3A.

Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination."

Anztac, was your sig designed with the sole purpose of being annoying / persuading cr0bar to disable sigs?
Posted by VinkFloyd on May 19 2000,02:04
I'm in total agreement with marc. Someone said somewhere on here that 4 lines is a good max. Adhere to that PLEASE.

Not to start a war or anything, but Quake is pretty damn fun when you play multiplayer, single player is a little lame. I don't really like UT that much, and I haven't *gulp* played Half-Life yet.
Posted by Quazor on May 19 2000,07:54
Well, I personally think Q3 sucks. It's too similar to Q and Q2. Sure, the graphics are great... but still. I played UT for a while and thought it kicked arse... until Counter-strike came out. For those of you out there that aren't aware... Counter-strike is a mod for Half-Life. A DAMN good mod.

Damn my slow dialup! I hate you!

I can't stand _any_ lag in fps games, and CS is not all the great with the netcode.

(supposedly they're getting some new netcode that kicks ass, but that remains to be seen)

Posted by Quazor on May 19 2000,08:54
Yes, I have Dialup too (curses his 56k). Put I learn to put up with the lag. It's not really that hard, I still play pretty well against those cablers.

I'm surprised, I was able to download both files at the 400-500KB/s range, usually popular files get slowed way down.
Posted by Whirlwind on May 20 2000,23:56
I'm Lucky if I can download anything at all...

You have had the chance to play HL for 1.5 years now! Die, those of you who haven't!

Play whatever you want, I like Quake 3, with all the mods that are out there it doesn't get boring.
Posted by Lordbrandon on May 23 2000,02:17
Counterstrike is far beyond all other mpog's
Q3 has a nice engine but thats about it CS is all about content

Q3=oatmeal
CS=Turkey pot pie


Posted by Lizzy on May 23 2000,02:20
Oatmeal is healthier, and breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
