Release date yet? We can't wait. What's up with the videos? They should have been released last year, not now. And please no UT3 conversion for this mod.

dethtoll:

AGREED. I hate UT3. Horrible engine, period.

Mr.Kadish:

wow, ill informed rubbish from someone who's probably not even tried to mod it.

dethtoll:

ROFLROFLROFL "hasn't even tried to mod it" do you even listen to yourself?

First of all: U3E is a horribly underoptimized piece of shit that suffers from stability issues. Every U3E game I've ever played has been problematic.

Second of all, fucking get over yourself. Ooh wow you made a zombie mod that everyone seemed to cream their pants over. Great job. Now fucking turn your ego down and quit looking down on us "mortals" just because we haven't made a mod.

BlckWyerve:

He has a better production record than you.

dethtoll:

That and $2.99 will get him a bag of chips.

Mr.Kadish:

Never said a thing about Killing Floor. i was talking about Unreal Tournament 3. Nice to know you've got a complex though. Thanks for sharing that with all of us.

"U3E is a horribly underoptimized piece of shit that suffers from stability issues"

What sort of stability issues exactly? I haven't had a single crash while playing any UE 3.0 powered game in recent memory...GOW PC works fine, Rainbow Six vegas was a breeze, and again with UT3. The only times i've had crashes are when i do wacky things with the material editor in UED. UED crashes are to be expected though, and have been a staple of UE modding all the way along the generations.

"Every U3E game I've ever played has been problematic."

Really? Every UE3 game i've ever played has been great.
So on those grounds i guess UE3.0 doesnt suck. right?
It's your opinion man. and looking at your profile, and the way you seem to be trying to build yourself up as this "says it like it is, fuck the press" hardnut, i can't help but think this site really isn't the place for you.

It's for fans of mods and modding, not trash talk and bitching.
Personally, i can't wait for Out of Hell to come out, and I'd love to see what CRC can manage with UE3.0 , as far as I know he has plans to use it in his future modding efforts.

Because it's a great engine.

Every U3E game I've ever played- on 360 and PC- has suffered from random crashes. Often, these random crashes would completely destroy my savegame- I once had to redo Bioshock from scratch after finishing it halfway. (Though to be honest I don't know why I bothered, but that's a different complaint.) U1E was great for its time. U2E is also great (though sometimes an overly modified version ends up being buggy and optimised, see Ion Storm's Flesh engine.) U3E... Well. It looks pretty, and its framerate is good when it's working, and I'm sure it's very moddable, but it's about as stable as a female character in a Philip K. Dick novel. But you don't have problems, therefore it's a great engine, and I'm not allowed to complain, right?

Also, I love how you seem to think that this site isn't "for" me like I'm some kind of mindless plebe. I use this site to keep abreast of updates and follow the mods that interest me (such as yours, at one point.) So, yes, I'm a fan of mods. You seem to have this attitude that if a person has a complaint, at all, they're somehow trolls or otherwise taking away from the site. That is the very attitude that drives me to write stuff like my latest blog post. Well, that and modders who seem to think they're the next Gooseman.

I for one cannot wait for OoH, just like you, and am glad that it is still for UT2k4- which uses a proven, solid engine. If you have a problem with that, then go fuck yourself, because you haven't said anything that I can take seriously since 2006.

(just FYI, I'm a journalism majour, so in a way I AM the press)

Mr.Kadish

While this is a site where anyone is allowed to give input (and we are allowed to give responses back to these people) it is also a COMMUNITY. in communities, typically everyone plays a part in making the COMMUNITY more enjoyable for everyone who takes part in it.

No, i'm not some holier than thou bigwig , because i made a mod. Whoo-dee-do right? That's history. i'm working on another one at the moment, but i wont bore you with the details. I'm sure your razor sharp journalistic wit will be *unleashed* on it whenever it makes its public appearance.

The fact is, this is a site where people contribute. And some people contribute in a positive manner by creating more content for others to enjoy, and offering advice, writing tutorials, etc, and others contribute in a pointedly negative manner. There is a fine line between criticism, and mouthing off for its own sake. You do not strike me as objective, well researched in what you talk about, or for that matter, particularly mature. You take singular experiences YOU have had, and present them as factual data. Nice journalism there, chum.

"I also hate 90% of the people on this site"

You seem to have a bizarre wish to be seen as a black sheep, and for reasons i can't understand. I guess, because you dont have anything *positive* or *constructive* to add to the community at moddb, you're going for the logical opposite and trying to make a name for yourself as a bit of a jerkoff.

it's worked, but don't think for even a moment that this attitude, or the things you write is reflective of some great analytical capacity you have which nobody can cope with, and that the 90% of people on this site, are just too ignorant to appreciate.

It isn't,

you're just another attention seeking tit, on the internet.

dethtoll:

It's like you're using words but all I hear is BAWWW. I leave plenty of positive comments- just because none of them are directed at YOU doesn't mean you can be all butthurt about the negative ones. Of course, since you can't be bothered to actually LOOK for these positive comments I guess I can't be bothered to give a shit about what YOU have to say- not that I've ever taken it seriously in quite some time anyway. You seem to enjoy resorting to ad hominem attacks to make yourself look better, which is actually fairly common around here (it's one of the top 5 favourite fallacies of the internet.) So I sometimes leave comments that are of a bitingly negative fashion. Get over it. I'm entitled to my opinion, and yes, you ARE a holier-than-thou bigwig. You have this superiority complex where if a person has not made a mod (or if you just think they haven't) then their input is irrelevant because "they just don't know what they're talking about." So my skills lie elsewhere; so fucking what? Why can't you debate me on the actual object of discussion instead of attacking me for what I can't or don't do? Oh wait, that would mean you might lose the argument or otherwise look bad- guess we can throw THAT idea out the window! And just by the way I'm not the only one who has trouble with U3E so don't act like it's a singular incident. And anyway I don't see what journalism has to do with U3E being problematic for quite a few people, myself included.

Much of the 90% of the userbase on this site that I hate are useless sycophants who have no grasp or understanding of English, common sense, or rationality and are incapable of expressing their thoughts in a coherent manner. In other words they make comments on Youtube seem comparatively worth reading. The rest of that 90% that I hate are people like you.

Thanks for playing!
