Slothman

i've noticed this a lot more often in the stunt server than in deathmatch. yer driving along, hit a wall, you look fine, but 4 seconds later... BOOM i think it's happening because you are getting into a vehicle that is already damaged on other peoples screens, but not your own. so you get in, you see a car in perfect shape, but the other guys see a smoking mess.

i think the key here is apathy. sure walking isn't your way, but it's still A way to play. some people camp (not me), and some people gun. some people try to run you over, some get on foot right away when they see you. some people heli kill, some people spam grenades. and some people run. either give up on them and move on, keep chasing on foot, or make them think you gave up and get a car then chase em thing i don't want to see in the next release: racer class. of course bump already said the racer was pitched out. so i'm happy.

/slothman falls into a coma from too much anticipation. now if i can get my computer to work again...

dont forget to stand back with the cop shotgun, it has a longer range than a shotty, so use that to your advantage.

bump already said that the racer is out, as far as the rest are concerned, I think they did an incredible job with the balance. if you can't kill with one of the characters (other than racer), then it's not a balance issue, it's a "the other guy is better with his character than you are with yours" issue.

remote detonators would make some kickass teamplay. i could picture a defending team placing all his grenades at an entrance, when the enemies go near them, BOOM> the car is on fire, then the enemy gets out, and BOOM, the second defending team member activates his nades.....how sweet it would be

<-----------------*ahem*

/slothman fantasizes: imagine a port, where simsonline and mta are morphed into one game. the poor people walking their dogs, taking a vacation, meeting at a club building up "mana" or whatever the hell rpg games use these days, then all of a sudden, they are caught in the middle of a gang war, smeared on the sidewalk by a driveby, and chopped up into peices with a heli........TAKE THAT YA MONTHLY PAYMENT WUSSES!!!! /slothman wakes up into reality. "it was just a dream............"

it was kungfugrip that was so hypocritical to delete other gang threads because he's mad that his was deleted. (that's sound logic. what a prick)

thanks for the reply bump. sounds like yer on top of it. please keep us up to date. edit: ah, so it was him. yes please do seep into the sespool from whence you came. there is no justification you could possible give to deleting other gangs threads. you sir. are a hypocrite.

there was a lot of history in our thread, it was like a journal for vck, it had info about the creation, developement, the ups and downs, the complete and total history of the vck gang from creation to present. so yes, i'm ticked that it's gone. whenever a new recruit or any other player would ask about vck, i would simply tell them to read through our thread, and they would get an idea of what we are like. then someone has a bad day, and POOF.

wow, i know the vck thread was fairly long, but i'd like to think it was spam free. we have always followed the rules as far as i know. i hope you figure out who did this.

JxMxB, did you ever think that the reason your getting banned from Privately owned servers, is that your a jerk?

kind of a dumb question. heli killing is part of regular gameplay, sure, it can be annoying if someone JUST heli kills, but once and a while, its pretty damn funny. just cause you don't like it when people do it, it's not cheating. heli killing seems to be the mta equvelant of camping. it's just part of the game, get used to it. ps: its not hard to shoot down a copter, and avoid the blades. just run and duck behing something.

we met up the other day with the "vice city killers" (not vice city killaz- us), and they seemed like okay guys. they didnt give us any trouble, after they found out there already was a vck, they decided on their own to change their name. i couldn't beleive it, they didnt want to "fight for it" or anything. amazing. hope i see them again, they seemed llike nice people

bah, stunt mode has ramps because it's stunt mode. it's not like they are in the way everywhere. (just some places) of course, the beach is damn empty, maybe theres something that could be done there)

well, i'm sure there are plenty of qualified programmers who would love to get their name in the credits for mta, a world famous mod. i know how to program BASIC. dump the c++ and vb, rewrite a new core in BASIC, and i'm yer guy

JxMxB: for the 5 minutes i played with you you accused me of cheating. don't be such a hypocrit. i'm sure we will carry on without your presence though

like i said, you guys are tightlipped. i guess your the ying to gtat's yang. don't care about release dates, cause I'm gonna be around mta no matter what. but as far as features go, i imagine if we could all have 1 new feature added, it would be shooting from vehicles. the other stuff youve slipped out sound incredible, but imagine the fun you could have on bikes, surrounding a car and taking it out with your guns. biker gangs would be cool.

remeber what? /slothman wanders off after seeing a shiny thing

its not april fools day where the mta team is , (timezones) damn, is there going to be a tutorial released for msol? i never learned how to play solitaire. maybe i could join a noob clan, so i could get some help starting out

what if 2 guys take the dodo to another island, and abandon them? does that mean someone will have to restart their gta3 before it will come back?

A-just to clarify, this means that we can only play in portland for gta3, then next time you release mta, we'll only be able to drive in the second or third island? B-the server will decide which island, and the server picks between islands C-in this version, portland is the only option, and possibly next time, the server chooses which one man, see what happens, you give us a taste, and we want the whole pie

personally, i think it's amazing that mtavc doesnt alter the scm or any other gta files. but would i care if it made single player unplayable? HELL NO, SCREW SINGLE PLAYER alter the files, i don't care! if not altering the files is an obstacle from adding new features, than screw it, changem!

i noticed this as well. it seems that stunt mode would be way more appropriate to have the race cars and demolition derby cars set up, not dm.
