i wonder what itll be like, its obvious and inevitable many good regs will move on, i will of course, try to stay in as long as my gameing days last, but i say cherish the years that we all will be together playing on LM :)
-
I never actually thought about it, but now that I do, I don't expect many NS communities to be around at all. Especially if NS is not going to advance to use the Halflife 2 engine.
-
we'll find another game to host and to play together, it'll rock.
-
In 4 to 8 years? According the Mayans, in 7 years the world will end... so I guess that's when Duke Nukem Forever is coming out. Yeesh they were smart cookies.
Anyway, I don't really expect LM to live past another year and a half. With Half-Life 2 I think it'll be a major earthquake among the communities, and if NS doesn't move over, I for one probably won't play it as much as I do now (well not now.... i've been working on my map, and work itself :p)
-
Hmm, predictions eh? Let me whip out my magic crystal ball and see what we see:
-Flayra, in a fit of madness, will accidentally balance NS perfectly while trying to code a nerf for gorge spit in NS 4.0. The community as one leaves the game because there's nothing left to bitch about.
-One day on LM, Sonic says in a thick new york accent 'Hey, guys, I've been screwing with you this whole time. I'm actually a roofer from the bronx.'
-Niteowl breaks down and admits that he actually IS a hyperintelligent breed of owl bred to play FPS games. He's never heard from again, although they say that if you wander the corridors of ns_lost by yourself late at night, you can hear the echoes of distant hooting (and a voice in your head saying GET TO TEMP CONTROL NOW, LET'S MOVE).
-Geminosity gets a sex change operation, still refuses to tell anybody which sex.
-lolfighter, after gathering his forces for five years, swoops down in a desperate coup attempt to wrestle power from the clutches of LB. The fighting is fierce and many allegiances are made and broken with heavy losses on both sides. In the end, the two bloody generals meet amidst a smoke shrouded, blood spattered battlefield and decide to go out for a beer instead of tearing one another limb from limb. In a bizzare twist of events, Lito is left in control of the LM conglomerate (now a worldwide corporation traded on the NYSE and nasdaq with its tendrils in everything from banana imports in guatemala to gun running in the middle east).
-Civilian gets sick of playing fade, decides gorge is the real battle class. Gets laughed off the server, trains in secret in a tibetan monestary, comes back and goes 134-1 on co_faceoff as a gorge with no upgrades.
-Keyser aims at a target and misses. (a little shaky on this prediction)
Hmm... the mists are closing on the magic crystal 8-ball I got at radio shack. The rest of the future remains... unknown.
*please insert a quarter to continue*

what!?...
FOR LB!!!!
/draws sword
RAAAARRGGHH!!!!!
...
wait... not yet? mmk...
anyways, yeah i don't know where i'll be. i'll most likely have a life and a job and wont hardly be playing games anymore... or i'll get a job closer to civilization, finally get cable internet and play some NS2 with everyone!!! that would be sweet...
i hope we all somewhat stay in touch, but who knows? i can't even expect to stay in touch with all of my highschool friends after i graduate. but the internet is a powerful tool, so there's still a chance of knowing all of ya then...
*sniff* just the thought of LM not being around is making me sad... and hungry... i want pizza
/mmmm pizza!

hahaha that made me laugh ;)
-
Now on vh1 behind the Lm.
Yea, Niteowl has been eating meeces, he was always eating 'em and we tried to help him.
-
*Isamil inserts a quarter
I want my fortune to!
-
*shrug*
I'll always be here, at any rate :)
-
i'll most likely have a life and a job and wont hardly be playing games anymore...
I'm the exact opposite, no matter what happens in my life, I will always be a gamer. Hopefully I can get a job in the gaming industry so my second greatest passion can be my career too.
-
I'm not sure I want to know what Bob thinks is in store for me...
-
good god bob, puuuuure gold man. j00 have teh bestest posts, evar.
BobTheJanitor turns out to, in fact, Bob, the Janitor, in the server room where LM and FSD are kept. he plays via console commands on a text terminal. the server room goes up in flames due to lack of cleaning by said bob, freeing bob from the room, to wander the wilds of Oklahoma. LM and FSD are moved to a safer location, and we get another LM reg FreddyTheBottomDweller.

Uh Oh, My Future is unpredicted!
Oh Noes!

Win! \o/ :p
well, in 4 - 8 years, i predict no lunixmonster community, and if there is, it would be a very small and completely different one.
Maybe LB will still be around, but its hard to admin a server with arthritis crippling his fingers to the point where "!ban Cheez" is nearly impossible to type without feeling immense pain.
Niteowl will sex0rz up his woman and accidentally get more kids than he can handle, and is forced to give up gaming.
Bob's woman will kick and scream about Bob playing too much NS, even after several requests, in an intimate voice, mind you, to 'Come to Bed'
lolfighter will DIE....of bordem and go to some other mod; perhaps Ass Rainbow Crowbar Halflife
Isamil is young, so he'll probably still be here, gaming away. He'll actually start commanding, because everyone that did is gone.
Grimm will take a little trip up north to Saskatchewan trying to "find himself". He'll stop by a small farm town and fall in love with some hillbilly farm girl that would change him forever. In what way, is something uncertain.
Sonic will be murdered because of that ONE time he didn't turn around when someone yelled "FFS! SONIC! BEHIND YOU!"
Jhunz will get a job, and will be able to hire whores every other night, thus eliminating the need for games.
Diablus will be found in his one room apartment (littered with pizza boxes and empty bottles of booze) choking on his own vomit from drinking a 24 pack by himself in front of a web cam. ("I told u i wuz hardcore")
its a wonder Geminosity is a gamer at all, but she'll get swept off her feet by some smart alec kid that is bound to get his ass kicked more than once in his life. Way to go, Gem, way to go.
Archi will be recognized for his administration skills and will be wisked away to referee CPL matches.
The others will leave without saying a word, and they won't be heard from ever again.
-
By 4-8 years hopefully ns will be still popular unless skulks can perform friendships on marines and spores smells like lemon lime.
-
Lito, might want to check on your sig, I can't see it, just the [X].
-
my prediction, an @hoot on IRC will instead take away Niteowls Ensure meece-shake
a method of creating out of matter what exist digitally (virtuosity, anyone?) will enable aciv and HD to become asassins for the CIA.
all teenage male members of the LM community will be locked up for harrasment, their crime, screaming " LMTU!" at Gem
Eve will lose his head in a horrible helicopter accident, an incredible irony concerning his favorite use of the Manta
Bob will become politically correct, changing his name to
BobtheMaintenanceEngineer
LB will write the perfect Nub filter, FSD lies empty
Flayra will balance NS, and to make up for the stark differences in skill, will ahve to code in a handicap system, thereby UNBALANCING the game, so the nubs will stop crying
Uranium will become a critic of everything, and hailed for his piercing insight
I will become the best comm ever
Satan will use iceskates to commute
-
I figure that in many years, one of two things will happen:
1) I actually turn into a car.
2) I burst a blood vessel because of commrage and die. My last words will be "F**kin' noobs, F4"

"Well, at least he gets 24 hours notice. That's more than most of
us get. All most of us get is, "Mind that bus!" "What bus?" splat!

Except for me, for I have never attempted any kind of IRC touching of Geminosity.
-
Me neither......
-
Not funny.
-
Nuked.
-
8 years someone will pronounce my name right, and the fabric of time and space will collapse in on itself.

JEFFY FOREVER

ok heh-fay
...
ohhh crap
anyone have predictions for teh mage?
edit: make it quick, space and time collapsing
-
I might be back into online gaming, barring accidents. I feel like Half-Life 2. Maybe I AM Duke Nukem...
I might also have dropped this self-fixation of turning everything I write into a lament for my online days. NNNGRRG!
-
In 4 to 8 years, a fanatical band of gorges will assume control of poland's military and go on a hitler-like domination of all of western europe that not even holy_devil could command a win against. bulgaria will be forced to unleash its secret weapon to save itsself from polish tyranny; the spork. :o . after the world war that follows, somehow indonesia emerges as the lone superpower.
and agentorange will still be trying to get into eclipse's secret room. :p
-
Uranium will become a critic of everything, and hailed for his piercing insight
I was thinking more like 'Uranium somehow rigs a presidential election, becomes president of the US, and for four years, manages to fix everythign wrong with the country. The following election year, civil war as George H. Q. W. Bush Jr. bombs Fiji into glass.'

Well, when you become president, make sure you get broadband so it's available everywhere in America. Make it required. I will even vote for your reelection if you do this. :D
-
lol, I got some futures told about me =D
waii!!!
I'd join in but it's midnight and my bed calls =P

"Why don't you give me your phone number, then I could call you to bed too! OH!"
