    Maybe this version won't make Baby Jesus cry if you want to run a Dedicated Server of it.....

    Maybe it won't be aggravating like the first. It was fun, but could they have made a little bit forgiving?

    Well I can follow a scent if it's strong, but I have no idea what you mean by that on computers. It was mostly aggravating because they did so much damage to you, you make one bad shot and an ally dies, you have so little ammo, your bot teammates were retarded, and a level could be over just when a single man dies because he has a skill you need.

    Alien Swarm for UT2k4 was more of an overhead shooter game like the ones on the old NES and SNES (Smash TV comes to mind).

    the only real problem with alien swark 2k4 is that it inevitabley ends up becoming a massive squabblefest as FF gets someone killed. That and if someone dies it's restart the level time because nobody wants to lose ranks or their favourite character :p

    It's like they took the UT2k4 version and made is sexier.
    Edit: I hope it won't be as unforgiving :\

    It looks ok, still looks like a mod team project but definitely at the high end in that league <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> Loved AS for UT2K4; hope this is at least as good!

    I imagine what happened was something like Them's tale of Valve visitry mixed with some swag from the MSU contest. Really cool to see opportunities like this arise for teams... but at the same time, I dunno if this is necessarily the best move for their team. They knew the Unreal tech. Source is a pretty far cry (pun not intended, I swear) from that right down to the most basic construction process. They're taking a huge risk that could really hamstring their team, particularly designers and programmers. It'll be interesting to see how this pans out for them.

    However, I wish them all the best; they've got a top-notch product already as a base and a retail opportunity which puts them in better shoes than most. Will have to keep an eye on this one.

    And once again my faith is renewed that good things <i>can</i> happen to those who work for it and dedicate themselves to their product in this industry. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    You guys remember that mission where you have to save a guy, and in the end you have to take an elevator down, and then you get swarmed and it goes into slowmotion and there's a mini-pic in the top corner showing you shooting like crazy? that was pretty sweet imo <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
