Airship Ballet

Akira Yamaoka is a little bit too practiced at amazing music. I'm in lesbians with Mary Elizabeth McGlynn's voice, too.

I'm nowhere near sober enough to command an army.

No, no, it isn't. You can read up on me here! I'm probably nowhere near as interesting as somebody infamous enough to be suspected of coming back in disguise. http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/15791-where-are-you-from/page__view__findpost__p__331786

The spice must flow!

Add me on Steam and I'll come force-feed you some beans! I've found you don't have to actively search for other people. If you go around looting high-traffic areas you can easily justify your murdering sprees because they'll fire first!

Except you're talking about your next big Thief game in that same topic. As it's a beta testing topic, the FM is not yet finished, but you're talking about the sequel before it's finished. If you want to be technical about it, I mean. Judging by reports of the initial release's quality, you should definitely refine your scope to just this for now, regardless of my skepticism about you being in contact with Eidos.

Well you should be proud! In terms of level design it's brilliant. The game mechanics are iffy and clunky for the most part, but the level design and atmosphere are really something special. Still would've liked to hear the older music though.

C&C has been mentioned, but this other Westwood briliance hasn't

Still need 'em! I went on that little trip to the airfield from the boat, had a mild panic attack while killing those three guys (it isn't just me that gets horrendously shaky and panicky in those CQB situations, is it? I still have mouse control and stuff but damn do I freak out internally). I found a mosin in the little hidden clippy area on top of the office building in Berezino and then went back to the ship, logged off where I started. I've got an ammo box full of rifle ammo and useless ACP rounds, so magazines would be appreciated ^^

Shenanigans is the word that comes to mind, to put it politely.

Stephanie in this case.

Quite genuinely got the shakes for a good 10 minutes when I turned to see a fuckin' zombie head floating through the floor at me. I made noises, which is rare for me...

For sure. I really hope the end product will allow persistent in-world crafting as has been proposed, as well as hunting since it would add real purpose to the wilderness. Still, I'd love to seize control of one of the high-rise apartments outside Cherno or inside Berezino and have a little posse living in separate rooms. It'd be like that apartment in 28 Days Later with all the shopping trolleys at the bottom. Best not to bother with berries: usually the bushes are empty or will knock you unconscious by way of poison and probably end in your demise.

I was eating the canned food as I got it until I realised there were three guys wondering around. The server had recently restarted and, for some reason, the airstrip just spawned a lifetime supply of beans and chest holsters. Gonna be great when the gas stoves are working.

If you want futuristic atmosphere you should check out E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy. That is one of the strangest games I've ever played. It runs on the source engine yet has an atmosphere I've never felt before when playing anything, at all. It plays very differently, too. As a game it's not great, but I ended up playing it all the way through just for how different it felt.

It's actually quite good. I held my own against three guys at the NEAS yesterday. I was in one of the top bunk rooms and two stacked up outside. They just opened the door and I popped one in the head, he went down in one. Then another came in and I missed the second shot, so got out my magnum and got him as he was fumbling around with an axe. I went down the stairs to check and yet another came out from under the stairs with another axe, so I did the same to him. I ditched the Blaze because, while really cool and powerful, you have to reload it manually from your inventory, which isn't great in situations like that. I've got a Mosin now and an M4 in my hands because I couldn't pass it up from one of the guys I got. All I really need now is a damn magazine for my FNX and its 3 stacks of ammo so I can get rid of the magnum... my inventory is pretty much dominated by baked beans and canteens.

I'm pretty sure given his history he was just after a pissing contest, best to let this thread get buried =P

My sentiments to the letter.

Even if there weren't apparently crippling bugs, I wouldn't play it just because of your attitude.

But then again so do ladders.

If you battle-log like that a lot and jump between servers all the time, you'll get penalized by having to wait forever to spawn. They're currently working on a system to properly punish people that do this, probably something like a bad player pool or just time-outs.
