I know who did it It's a simple mod matter of comparing IP numbers

If you where a game designer and had an entire team at your disposal, plus solid funding - what game would you make? It could be fun to hear what crazy ideas you people got! ------------------------- Here's my contribution: I think I'd make a catburglar game! The initial planning-interface presents you with a big city map and other stuff such as a newspaper. In the newspaper you can look for interesting events, like museum exibitions, etc. You could either go for a random burglary, rob a museum/coorporation, or do hired jobs for gangsters. On the city map you would choose the local area to strike. These individual "neighbourhood" areas are each an actual FPS 3d level when entering the action (split up these "hoods" to allow extreme detail). You can choose equipment to bring and have the option to visit the area for recon before the strike. When doing the burglary, you'd be able to use any tecniques that apply in real life, and all object in the buildings are interactive. This mean that you could shortcirquit a lightswitch or knock something over, to distract a person - use grapling hooks and glasscutters to get through windows, and other James Bond like burglar equipment. It would be insanely stealth-based and kills would not be an effective solution as it would attract loads of cops, etc. The levels should be totally based on simulation rather than scripting, so the player could even come up with unique new ways of pulling off jobs. You'd both have to find the loot and get out of the city section safely, without guarddogs or cops on your tail. Leaving traces of yourself on the crimescene would gradually help the police find out who you where and ultimately get you busted - in case they don't catch you red-handed first! Selling loot would give money to buy better theiving tools or even hire (more or less reliable) helpers to assist on missions. The fun factor? That would be the thrill of rooftop hopping and clinging to the outside of ultra-high skyscrapers, sneak around security personnel, crack super-safes (with all that applies) Â and getting out without leaving evidence two who you are

Anyway, think of all the possibilities. Your race selection and previous affilitations would of course affect which "interest groups" you'd be able to join. Game difficulty would be dictated by what crime you were sentenced to prison for (no lame beginner, hard, impossible): Murder One would be the easiest because of the respect you would get from other inmates and Rape of a Minor would be the hardest, because everybody would hate you. Weapons would have to be painfully manufactured from bits and pieces stolen from around the prison. Any kills you make you would have to cover up in order to avoid Death Row. Deal drugs to other inmates to get some dinero or use drugs yourself to boost your stats temporarily for that important fight-off-the-gang-rape ocassion. Infect your enemies with HIV with dirty needles. Start affairs with interested guards to get some special treatment. Convert to a religion in order to snake your way close to the leader of the sect, then off him and become the leader yourself. The possibilities are endless.<span id='postcolor'> strange that no one have yet made such a game - it would be fun. It could be bundled with my catburglar and rapekiller games to complete the circle

I have a couple and my interest swift between them periodically. 1. ww2 european scenario 2. Roman empire 3. medieval europe 1100-1400

1. Eating good food with good wine 2. Plotting how to take over the world

You'd earn artistic points for how insane and brutally you where able to rape and kill random strangers without being caught by the cops.

A unique aspect would be to prepare as much material as possible (video recordings, maps with graves, etc), so when the cops finally catch you, you're ensured a big front page in the news reveiling all your creativity.

At this link: http://www.gamespy.com/interviews/june02/totalwar/index.shtm What ya say? I'm really looking forward to this one... especially after reading this: "In both parts of the game, battlefield and campaign, we've tried really hard to make it so it's not about learning the abstract rules of how the game works; we want you to play it intuitively as you'd imagine the real world should work" I hope this will strike a fatal blow to the traditional [westwood] RTS genre!

I'm looking forward to having a realistic and diverse game in every genre of PC games. OFP is the FPS and hopefully Medieval will be the RTS. I'd like to see a totally realistic RPG too, but that will require someone making a RPG without magic

The differences between the old and new testaments are ample proof that religion is simply modified to suit the needs of present time. Other examples are how christianity once gospeled that the earth was FLAT and paradise was located ON it, somewhere to the south. Later people figured out that the earth was round and suddently paradise was located in the sky! Such things makes it seem outright stupid to me, to think that religion speaks eternal truth -- it's constantly modified to cover up it's own errors and misconceptions. In the old days people where certain that thunder and lightning was the wrath of the gods. Now this is a fully explained natural phenomena. Same goes with everything else in this universe -- some of it just haven't been explained yet, but that's just a matter of time.

Ommigod! This one has Peter Gaypan on it!

Ren & Stimpy is my top favourite! The episode where they sell rubber nipples and the one where Stimpy goes through puperty are killers. My second favourite is South Park. Simpsons aren't fun anymore. They've dropped down to about number 10 on my list

If you're not watching Italy-Korea right now you better hurry and turn on the TV - it's insane!!!

Hehe ... look at the small pic in the corner

there's also games for minors

You could become a mod...

a workaround is to toggle viewmode once or twice (like from 3rd person to 1st and back) after starting the car engine. This will normalize the sound and stop the crackling. Atleast it does for me.

Off to troubleshooting with this
