Drama / Your friends aren't going to ge unbanned

« on: November 14, 2009, 03:02:08 AM »

Making a topic isn't going to help them, if they did something stupid enough to get banned for then, it's their fault. Making topics for them to get unbanned will result in nothing at all happening. Stop trying.

Games / Left 4 Dead 2 - New mode announced

« on: October 07, 2009, 11:37:08 PM »

At a press event being held tonight in San Francisco, Valve has revealed an all new game mode for Left 4 Dead 2. Dubbed "Scavenge" the new mode pits a team of Survivors against a team of Special Infected. As expected, there is a catch.

The new mode is coming off as a mix of Survival mode and Versus. The team of Survivors is tasked with finding and retrieving gas canisters that have been scattered around the level. These canisters are then used to fill up generators. While they're attempting to do this, both the normal Infected and the human controlled Special Infected will attempt to thwart their plans.

The maps start off with a 120 second time limit, each canister used adds another 20 seconds to the remaining time. The goal for the Survivors is to use as many of the 16 total gas canisters before the time runs out.

When Left 4 Dead 2 ships on November 17, there will be a total of six Scavenge maps included.

Discuse.

Borderlands is pretty much an FPS (with light RPG elements) game in which four players cooperate to achieve one goal, treasure and stuff.
The game is four players online co-op and si for Xbox360, PS3, and PC. It features like 300,000 87 bazillion guns or something, bunch of enenmies, four different upgradeable classes, customizable vehicles and even more awesomeness.

It's for pre-order on steam too!

Discuse.


According to Gearbox producer Simon Hurley in an interview.

Silver weapons have greater chance of achieving an extreme critical hit.
Black weapons will fire quickly, but lack accuracy.
The length of the stock affects stability.

According to a poster on the Gearbox forums.

Yellow is high explosive.
Green is acid.
Blue is electrical.
Red is fire.

« on: August 30, 2009, 02:26:54 AM »

This music video follows the story of three citizens trying to escape from the evil army.
This film took 3 whole weeks to make. It was a fun yet annoying procces.

Youtube also kind of ruined quality :/
I hope you enjoy!

Do you want to star in movies like this? If so apply for Frostbit Films today.

This was made in November of 2008 and, WMG killed the music due to copyright stuff.
I decided to reupload it and post it because, the audio swapped song was really bad.

Enjoi.

Off Topic / Official Airsoft discussion Megathread

« on: August 24, 2009, 11:41:42 PM »

AIRSOFT DISCUSSION

The topic is self explanatory - Discuse airsoft

STOP MAKING NEW THREADS ABOUT AIRSOFT

TIPS/ADVICE/ETC

What is airsoft?
Airsoft is an action sport in which players shoot each other with replica firearms. These guns use 6mm plastic BBs.

Where you should buy from:
http://www.airsoftgi.com/ [USA]
http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/ [Hong Kong]

What do I need to play airsoft!?
To start playing airsoft, all you need is a gun, BBs, and a pair of full seal goggles.

Things you may want are:
Extra Magazines
Vest/Chest Rig/Belt Rig
Hydration Carrier/Method of carrying hydration (This is very important.)
Other Tactical gear and possibly more weapons.

What's the best type of gun to buy?
AEG is the way to go, gas can only be used seasonally and there aren't many gas rifles yet.
In terms of sidearms get GBB, AEPs work too but, they aren't as good.
Spring is a pretty bad choice in airsoft.
Overall, eletric is the best choice, gas isn't quite as reliable and spring is underpowered.

What are some good brands?
A few good brands are KWA, VFC, Classic Army, G&G, and G&P but, there are many other great brands. If you're on a budget clone manufactures such as Echo1, JG, KS, CYMA, and Dboys are also great options.

What type of vest should I get?
If you are on a budget, go for a chest rig or LBV, they're very inexpensive and will hold alot of your mags.
If you've got some cash to spare, a Tactical/Crossdraw vest is a great choice, they're not that expensive, can hold a bunch of mags and, have MOLLE on the back to hold hydration packs.
If you have plenty of money for airsofting, you should defiantly get a MOLLE plate carrier/vest, they're somewhat expensive but, they have an amazing amount amount of modularity to fit any loadout.

What's the best gun to get?
When choosing an airsoft gun, take into account, FPS, weight, sights, stock, and what type of mag the gun uses.
"Armalite" (M4/M16 family) guns and any other weapons that use Stanag mags are great because, they all use the same mags which are, cheap, widely available, and versatile.
Alot of players use "stanag weapons" which makes sharing mags easy, you can also find alot of MOLLE pouches/belts that are built for the mag style. Mp5 Mags are only made for Mp5s but, they fit into M4 mag pouches easily and Condor/OE Tech makes mag pouches for Mp5 mags.
UMP and P90 mags are tall, and somewhat harder to find, due to them being tall, they won't fit in most mag pouches besides ones built for them.
G36c mags are bulky but, they are able to clip together. They will most likely not fit into M4 mag pouches, they might fit into AK mag pouches.
AK mags are easily obtainable and so are pouches.
Overall, what gun you get is your choice and no one else can tell you what gun is best for you.

Forum Games / French Guy Movie (WIP Name)

« on: July 04, 2009, 04:35:47 PM »

FRENCH GUY MOVIE
WIP Name

Basic Plot: PMC is after a french guy for reasons unknown. They chase him around untill the climax of the film in which something big happens.

Edit: More detailed plot just to make Princess(Nick The Sushi) happy.

Detailed Plot:
A PMC has been sent into ACM city to catch the french guy. He's wanted for stuff I'm not going to say because, it would spoil a huge plot element.
The movie's quite obviously not going to be them chasing the guy for the whole entire movie. Like any other movie, there's other stuff going on, and the french guy has motives of his own, you'll be able to find out more when it's done.

Film Dates:


Roles: Show up and I'll give you a part.

French Guy: Socko/Jirue
PMC Leader: Sony
Ed: N/A
PMCs: Anyone who shows up
Background parts: Anyone who shows up

Voice Actors:
(Need V/As)

Notes: I'm aiming for the machinima to be atleast 20 minutes long, I'll be uploading it on youtube in 3-4 parts, and creating a DvD version depending on length of the movie.
If you would like a voice acting role, please post a sample of your voice acting in the thread.

Games / Section 8

« on: July 03, 2009, 11:18:40 PM »

[Ripped from wiki]
Section 8 is a first person shooter set in a futuristic universe. The players wear futuristic armor that covers their entire bodies and features shielding technology which is able to absorb enemy damage.

Players will be able to “burn-in” by dropping onto the battlefield from orbital dropships hovering at 15,000 feet from the surface, thus eliminating fixed spawn points. “Burning-in” also creates the opportunity for the player to choose where they drop on the map, making the game unpredictable. This process is an interactive experience as players can be shot down upon entry by players and anti-aircraft turrets alike, though these situations can be avoided or mitigated by using the “air-brake” feature which allows the player to make mid-air adjustments.

It sounds and sort of looks like any other futuristic FPS but, it is somewhat fun. I'll be uploading videos from the multilplayer beta as I continue to play it.

Impressions so far: It feels sort of like Halo mixed with battlefield. There's only one game type so far but it's more than just a simple deathmatch. I'm not sure if it has an exact name but, it's pretty much two teams competing against each other in an objective based gamemode. Objectives range from protecting a convoy to delivering Intel/explosives. There are 5(?) default classes that are just standard stuff(Assault/Sniper/Ect) but, you can also create your own class. Within classes are two special items and two weapons. You can have two of any type of weapons, for example you could use a sniper and a shotgun at the same time. Special item's are what you would expect from most FPS - Knife, Explosives, Health Kit, Ect. There's also a buying system which allows you to call in deployables or vehicles, deployables are mostly turrets but, some are also health or supply stations. Vehicles are standard amongst FPS(Plane, Tank, Ect.) The game is fun but, the maps are somewhat dull and there's too much going on at once sometimes.

Final Verdict: Game's something fun to pick up and put down after a few minutes, it's not really worth buying.
