Perhaps. But as stated earlier, translators are far from perfect.

Yeah, that's true. I mean, how would we know?

Yeah, but I'd have had to look for a tutorial. And some tutorials demand knowledge that I can't ascertain that he has.

lol, that sounds so dumb. "Go to the Sig Shoppe." Well, the questions implied that he knew little about it, so it was easier than writing a large article teaching him the intricacies of Photoshop. And btw, "shoppe" sounds friendlier than "shop".

That was a very one-sided description - I apologise. On the other hand, it remains true to the GTA3 formula and offers more fast-paced gameplay then Vice for deathmatch lovers who don't want to have to walk far for a fight.

I was asked a similar question a couple of months back regarding RCon for Half-Life. He kept asking me for "the password" as if I was supposed to know it. In the end, I said:

It's old - difficult to get into a game, buggy, no chat, etc. You'd be better off waiting for MTA 0.4.

I'm pretty sure that IGN had its own download network (this is going back a long time).

Do you mean create a separate server program optimised for dialup? To reduce lag is one of the team's aims with each successive version, so I gather, so this would be somewhat pointless. Or do you mean that server admins should offer two servers - one for dialup and one for broadband? If so, this would cost a lot of money and many admins wouldn't see the need. Plus the quality and availability of broadband is increasing all the time. insnt there a gta3 multiplayer mod available already? Yep, there's GTA3:MTA 0.3b.

Dumbass. Why do the words "pot", "kettle" and "black" spring to mind?

Yeah, if you manage to find Mplayer on an old CD somewhere and install it, it comes up with a message to install Gamespy Arcade. I don't use IGN much, but I do know for a fact that download links now point to FilePlanet, so some things definitely have changed. At least it's better than Microsoft's attempts to control the world.

I'm not sure I could handle it after MTA:VC. It's more buggy and apparently not as "developed" as MTA:VC... I think he's talking about 0.4.

It's better than some people who promise things that they can't deliver (this isn't directed at anyone in particular, btw).

Firstly you say it's lag-free, and then you say that there's hardly any lag (implying that there is a slight amont of lag, thus not making it lag-free).

What? Wasn't he talking about the big map showing names? Not the radar... That would still apply if there's a subby war and people are close together.

No, I didn't mean removing it. I meant the ability to scroll up so that you can see what people said previously.

2 years for MTA 0.4? What? Huh?! lol i was talking about duke nukem forever Didn't they start developing it in 1996 (= 8 years)? Oh, MrBump (I think it was Bump anyway) said that those whose work on 0.4 was complete were developing the new core and those who still had work to do on the 0.4 client were working on that.

Most men who call themselves Mandy are locked up...

Do you mean make the chat window in the corner scrollable? If so, it gets my vote

Yeah, planning a release. The release depended on how quickly bugs could be squashed (and the long wait would suggest that there was some difficulty).

1. Hmm... 2. It's impossible to guarantee (and fruitless to try) no lag at all considering the many factors that affect it which are beyond MTA's control.

That should be fun. Not if it's anything like True Crime...

That's a socket error... I think it's something to do with a wrong IP or something. Btw, this should be in the GTA3:MTA 0.3b section.

Ugh... that's another thing I hate - "Driv3r". Why not "Driver 3"? It is positively the worst name ever (in my opinion). Edit: Beaten me to it again Utopia
