I still have my old palm pilot somewhere from winning the Red Alert ladder, years ago. Infact, I remember teaching good ol' Ir0nside how to q attack. Gawd that guy was a pimp.
Red Alert was the ****nit! Was hooked on that game for a long time, until Tribes came out 8)~

Quote: repling to a earlier comment bullfrog made excellent games, i wish syndicate would be remade maybe as a mmonline game. It would kick arse.
dude, Syndicate was the ****nit. Syndicate wars even better.
I was so blown away by the graphics way back then, and the gameplay was challenging and interesting. When people say 'games used to be much better back in the day' they are talking about games like that, and possibly bomberman (best multiplayer game ever).
I believe it is kicking around on abandonware atm. But you will need a bit of software to slow down your processor, as it was CPU-cycle timed, rather than realtime clock-timed. and on a P4, each level would be over before it started :)
Also, looking at reviews and reports of other MMO's, I have to say I'm glad that I never tried the others.
Eve is not without it's problems, not by a long way, but the devs are doing the best they can, and I appreciate it. .

Quote: The only thing I liked about EnB was being able to get out of your ship and walk around.. With player portrates this would be rather difficult to implament in the future. Cause if CCP couldn't get my blue hair right I would sue.
As far as I know the portrait information is actually stored with the parameters used for creating it in their database (and not a bitmap snapshot of your creation). I could be wrong but this is a hunch I have had since they messed something up in beta and suddenly lots of people had a 5 day beard on their portraits...
When you create the avatar you do it in 3d so they do have the information needed (I have a suspicion though that everyone would look very similar seen from the back unless they make certain facial parameters mean tall/short, thin/fat such as the fat cheeks a handful of players have).

E&B was released 2001? I was following EVE that time when I heard about that game, never gave it a try though, the graphics just wasn't close to EVE and it effected me like playing an incomplete version of me (without any background content check, just my initial thought).
Anyway, has it really been so long, man time flies and still hanging here.

EnB had those 1st/3rd person bubble*****pit views which were pretty cool.. and when you flew around you would actually fly "around" the planets not through them. The planets also looked way cooler than EVE planets and extremely close range. I see no reason why EVE can't do the same things. Now that EVE has officialy made it I hope the CCP team can increase in size as well and really start coding some sweet stuff into this game. ------------------

The planet rings will be minable, that's why they are taking so long I think. ------------------

Can it be stated better than this :(?
Quote: Earth and Beyond would have been the best MMORPG ever created. Better than EVE. But EA has a simple strategy--buy out their competitors... but don't use their games! Just dissolve the whole company, simply to get rid of competition.
And Earth and Beyond, because of lack of funding, had less content released in its entire time out than it should have had in the first 3 months.
**** you, EA.

Tarp is a EVE fanboy! Keeps plauging EnBboards with EVE propaganda! And quit mocking us who likes EnB! This game dont offer much in comparision to EnB in my opinion! Someday maybe i will like this game, but it will never replace EnB!

From what I can see, that thread was all about E&B, while this one is about Eve being promoted to EnB'ers. With alot of EA bashing as well. I'm sure CCP, like every other developer, enjoys EA stomping every once and a while.

Yeah, you're spot on, Bullfrog released some of the most influential games I've ever played and most likely ever will play. Theme park rocked my world for years.
Shame Maxis will soon die out as EA sucks everything it can out of another great games developer.
I hate EA almost as much as I hate Infogrames for "killing" Cavedog Studios A moments silence please for the legendary Total Annihilation 
i was JUST looking at my TA and DK:2 discs yesterday pondering a reinstall (and coaxing them thru a scary WinXP environment...)

Quote: Anyone try sim city 4?
They released the game unfinished. Didn't say it on the box, so you didn't know till you installed it. By then it had been open and was to late to return it.
The error message promised they would patch in the missing half of the game... a patch that never came.
My brother got it for me for christmas, but its still in my christmas box in my closet. Still unopened too due to Eve. _ _ How many pilots does it take to wire a Flux Capacitor? 3, 1 to wire it and 2 to talk about how the old one was better. |

Quote: c) EA is typical american, instead of making one game real GOOD they make so many games (5 where for example blizzard / quality nintendo producers make 1) making 250$ instead of just 50$ (here come the american its all about the money). -Deadflip
Well you can kiss 100% of my american A$$. And while you are at it, you know where you can stick those stereotypes of yours.
