Heyyo,

You've really gotta start making more sense with your postings, lmao. :p

Quake3Arena was a BRILLIANT game, definately one of the best. SW: Jedi Knight 2, Jedi Academy, Soldier of Fortune 1&2, Doom3 (well, they remade the Q3A engine to suit their needs...), Heavy Metal F.A.A.K. 2... the list goes on. Many games came from the Quake3Arena engine.

Quake3: Team Arena's a kickass addon too. Adds a voting system, and was made for clans. You can create custom emblems and slap them on any player model for all to see... Halo2 just copied this idea. ;)

I like how intense the action is in Quake3Arena... pretty fast paced, and that game demands skill to do good. Sure, the BFG's a cheap weapon, but most servers have it off anywho. So Digi? I say, get that game, I will train the CRAP outta you. Don't worry aboot pings, I used to play with pings of 300 and STILL pwn a lot. Yep, netcode kicks ass. =D

I'm gonna see if I can buy Team Arena today... I have the original, but I lack the addon..... played the demo of TA, and that was sweet.

Yeah, Digi, since it's old I'm sure you can find it for like, 3 pounds or whatever... and if you're still too broke, just get like the demo, and we can pwn up a storm baby! :)

no. halo has a one of a kind engine. models bitmap collition model, animation and interface are all seperate. animation is usualy coded in the model. there is no other game that uses the same engine and system as Halo. halo 2 works the same way only textures are more part of the model that the bitmap. Everything has its own tag. almost nothing is one.

Except Stubbs The Zombie.

Heyyo,

ROFL, yeah, I read up on that before. The name's gonna be 'Rebel Without A Pulse' :)

You play as a zombie that eats brains and makes other people into his zombie hord and go up against the military with tanks and all kinds of other badguys. ;)

Somebody who left bungie is mkaing that game, he started his own dev studio and got permission to use the Halo engine because he was a high level worker. Must have cost him dearly, though.

SOMEBODY WHO LEFT BUNGIE? It wasn't just SOMEBODY. It was THE MAN. He FOUNDED Bungie.
