    100% correct in my opinion.

    ya know, people keep quoting me and laughing, but im pretty sure those words came out of flay's mouth. it was supposed to be this system that would close the growing gap between pub players and clanners. (bringing the community closer) they prolly dont give us a description of what it is because if we're busy discussing and wondering what it is, we cant be complaining that its not done, mainly cause we have no idea what it is and how long it takes to make

    ...maybe its a NS OS!!!!!!! OMG taht wood be 1337!!!

    Having Nemesis Zero himself officially dispel the rumor that it's a stats-gathering system isn't enough to satisfy your cravings for a hint?

    I saw the BUS in my pancakes this morning. Some would probably say it was a coincedence, but I think it was a sign. It most definitely was the BUS!

    Every time I open my mouth on a BUS-related issue, I regret it. Sorry folks. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    IMO, if you just went up and told us what it was, you'd get feedback and be able to fix anything that could be a potential bad idea.

    Admit it, you KNOW you want to find out what the BUS is...
  • PvtBonesPvtBones Join Date: 2004-04-25 Member: 28187Members
    oh god I'd kill to find out about it, no doubt I would.

    seriously Nemo name a name and he's wearing a new set of cement shoes.... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Rumor always had it that it was a system that would encourage competetive play, allowing people to set up 'PUG' scrimms with a lobby system of some sort, or some sort of clan ranking and ladder match system, I'm don't really remember.

    Unlike other threads about the BUS this particular theory never had a direct 'No you're wrong' response to it, lending it more weight.


    IMO, if that's what we've been waiting for, then **** this game.

    I fear that a lot of you will be underwhelmed by the system no matter what because of the extremely high expectations set up by now. This won't get better with my next statement, because the one thing I can say is that, while there have been a few partial hits so far, nobody has yet really hit on the system's full potential yet.

    So why don't we tell you? Bluntly, because Charlie is currently negotiating with investors, and the nature of this system is one of the best cards on his hand. Making it public knowledge wouldn't be a smart move.

    Well, at least you cared enough to say so.

    Understood.

    But any hopes of a general release date?
