I suppose I'm somewhat obligated to complain about not having the OP4 source, etc :-)
Quake 4. It's The Next Big Thing, and there is a good chance that you will see Ooks Steaming Pile of Crap becoming Ooks Quaking Pile of Crap v.4 by the end of the year. DeathMatch was the first love of my life, and I often mourn the demise of DM and the spread of Counter-Shite. Maybe Q4 can breath some life back into the DM arena? UT2K3 was good - but not good enough. They still have not learned something that Valve, and now ID, know - you want a killer DM game, you have to have a killer SP game to get people to buy it in the first place. I love Q3 DM, but there was no Q3 SP, and although the Q3 engine is now ancient history, it had a lot going for it. But the numbers just weren't there, and the netcode very much favored low latency connections. And now I'm starting to ramble... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Napier, Kevin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <hlds@list.valvesoftware.com> Sent: Monday, August 15, 2005 1:19 PM Subject: RE: [hlds] Coming Soon BS...
Jump (at least for now), it's much more fun.

I agree. This is getting way old. Is anyone impressed with the screenshots? The game isn't out yet and the released pics look substandard. I'm wondering if it will look as good as HL2. I have had a 24/7 DoD server since the "beta days". I think I may jump ship to newer games like Battlefield 2. Let the flames roar up, I care not.

Yes, it did, but that wasn't really my point. Point is, having 2-3 games "almost done" doesn't help anyone. Look I understand everyone gets defensive of Valve, and usually for good reason (they are being blamed for something stupid) but this, frankly, is only Valve. Now, call me crazy, but I just like getting what I paid for. Again, I know people hate to hear that (oddly enough) and I don't mind waiting, but g'damn! How much artwork are they doing?!? Again, I don't mean to piss anyone off, but even Valve knows this is getting old, some of them anyway. -Smurf Message: 6 From: "[GS]BeNt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <hlds@list.valvesoftware.com> Subject: Re: [hlds] Coming Soon BS...
