Second Life website

Now I admit it seems rather pointless if you read the site, but SL is kinda cool. You basically have a Avatar that you guide around the virtual world (VERY VERY VERY BIG) and explore. You spend your hard earned cash on clothes, land, cars, anything you want for your avatar. I think of it as MSN messenger on crack, it's good for meeting people, and even better for hanging out with those you already know. My av is sorta like my RL counterpart... only taller, and looks alot sexier

Off Topic / Mother's day...
« on: March 06, 2005, 03:01:28 AM »
Well... being a man of my family, I like to show them how much I love them. Mother's day is no exception. I went home this weekend to stay at the old family home (big and old) to both celebrate mother's day, and get a chance to have a giggle with the old man. The morning has gone good so far. Fry up for breakky, and I'm working on a roast for tea. Flowers were apprieciated... I think, and I know the old mother loved the Baci chocolate I bought her.

So, how about your parents, or even children, did they suprise you with love, or was it a dull day?

See the thing is, I'm not sure if you can really call SL a game. It's kinda like you have as the name would suggest, a "second" life. It's run off the Havoc engine, and you can do all manner of things within the game itself. From scripting to modelling... it's all possible. The other thing about it is, it's a one time payment. There is NO monthly fee, you pay your $10 and then that's it...
Anyhow, here's a link to explain further www.secondlife.com.

edit: my SL name is Alucard Saito

Off Topic / this mod idea

The Cleaners

I am a cleaner it’s what I do. There’s only one way to clean some things, and the best way I know for those kinds is through killing. If you were to ask me if I was happy with my line of work I wouldn’t be able to answer you, because I’m not even sure if I’m doing it right.

The Cleaners is a new mod taking advantage of the most talked about gaming engine available at this time, “Source”.
The mod itself revolves around the character that everybody calls Shadow, which you gain the ability to play in the Single Player campaigns.
The campaigns are what Shadow would call work, but for the sake of it, they are just jobs in which you will run, shoot, maim, stab, and poison your way through a load of mean old syndicate men who had it coming.
The maps will feature beautifully a sculpted dark and dreary neopunkistic future where most things will go unnoticed for the right price.
Weapons are one of the key factors of the mod. But sometimes the fact that there is such a wide variety will just open your eyes to what you’re best at. Be it spray and pray with a fast ROF gun, or taking people out from behind with steel wire, a lot of the weapons will require a certain amount of skill in order to use them.
With the ability to handle a weapon like a god, you will also need to move well. The mod will use various combos in order to perform special actions. Such things as diving, rolling, crawling, sneaking, shimmying, abseiling, climbing, and much more. You will have to use all the movement abilities in any mission, because at the end of the day there’s 2 ways to go about it, like a silent killer, or all out and murder everything in sight.
Along with the fact that the mod will feature a vast array of weapons and items, there will also be several controllable vehicles that can be used to complete a job. From cars to mechs, these vehicles will all be easy to control, and will all have some kind of useable weapon, even if it’s driving into people.
At times between all the killing and such, you will have to play Shadow when not working, in his home and around his local area. Completing secondary missions like this will open your eyes to the world in which the mod is based, and in turn a look at what a real hit man lives like.
Along with the single player campaign, there will also be a vast range of different multiplayer modes of play. Along with the standard DM and TDM, there will also be RP (Role Play) and Co Op.
The Role Play will feature all the abilities of the mod itself, but will be a sort of sub mod, in which you will have to go about everyday life in city sized maps with 63 other players in order to proceed in life. Be it money, family, or even just to be a bad ass.
The Co Op feature will be just that, co-operative play. You will be sent on missions with a team of up to 8 people where you have to work together to kill a heavily guarded target in the dreary and futuristic world of “The cleaners”.


Well... what do you all think?

General / Worst Map Ever...
« on: October 09, 2004, 11:13:57 AM »
TBH, i hate mineshat... it really annoys me to hell, because everytime i play, it's a 3 hour stalemate until the marine commander goes crazy from boredom and recycles everything, jumps out the chair and suicides, then let's the team die.

BUT, do you have a pet hated map? if you do, then which one is it?
