| DUNGEON KEEPER 2 INTERVIEW (9:00 PM EST) |
| If you have never
played Dungeon Keeper you have missed so much. This is not a game about
battling through a dungeon of monsters to save a princess and find loot.
This is about building a dungeon, hording loot, and torturing the good
guys stupid enough to wander into your evil domain. DK2 is going to be
more of the same but much improved. DK2 will feature 3D rendering, more
of everything, improved netplay, the works. For an interview with one of
DK's creators and some screenshots go here: http://www.dkeeper2.net/strategy/nginterview.shtml
Think of another game where randomly smacking a creature improves its morale.... |

| ZAPHOID ON MAILBOMBS AND TOM |
| Mailbombs
suck. They can cause delays and make it hard to find the meaningful
emails from the noise. Please stop. I can't even read the language the email is in to know what it says! Okay.
A series of misunderstandings between id and Tom's Hardware has led
I just don't understand why my Riva 128 isn't more popular... |

| SUPER RJ ALIAS |
| All the folks who know me pretty well in the Quake II community know this.. I THINK RJ ALIASES ARE SUPER LAME. Now comes along the Super RJ alias, and I'm not sure what to think. I think RJ aliases are lame since RJing is possible if you practice, but since people are lazy wussies they use some cheap alias to do it for them. As I've said many times, if you're going to use aliases to do things that can be done with the alias, why bother playing at all? Why not just fire up Eraser Bots and let them play, since you obviously can't play by yourself. Maybe an alias to do everything in one button preess, then you can fall asleep with your face on the Spacebar and get frags. Grrrr. Now I haven't tried this alias yet to see if it is doing something that is already possible, or an entirely new skill..... FYI, I won't post it here till I know, I hate to feed the lamers. |
| CARMACK BOMBED |
| Mailbombed that is.
Why Ther F*#k would some lamer do this? One of the best things about this
community is the closeness between the developers (Gods) and the players.
You can drop them a line anytime and somethimes get email back. How often
do actors or musicians do this? The devlopers want your feedback to make
bigger and better. So don't be a frigging dumbass and force the people
making this community to wall them selves off, like actors and musicians,
to avoid idiots with mailbombing toys. Grow up punk...
John
Carmack's .plan file has been updated.
Here is a summary of the update made: 6/5/99
No more work logs for now. We were getting day-to-day reports on the games progress, now nothing. Thanks you stupid dick. |
| NEW SCHTUFF ON THE HORIZON |
| Going to be adding
some new things about here starting in the next couple weeks.
* A weekly comic (yes Devon, about what you suggetsted :P ) * A poem/story of the week. Now this isn't sissy stuff, this is going to be Quake/humor related, not the mushy stuff ;) * More content. I'm trying to negotiate with a person or two to add their knowledge/content to this site. I would like to make it more encompassing, so this can be a one stop news site. Get all kinds of brief news in one place. No Planetchump bs, the real deal. If you have ideas for content, a story, a poem, a pic, or anything, or if you think you'd be an reliable and worthy addition to the Dingleberry team, drop me a line. M@$E$ |
