I believe in most of the games you holster your gun before climbing up.

[Master Fibbles]

In most modern games this is true. You are not able to shoot on ladders. In fact, in some games, you aren't even allowed to control how you go up ladders - ladders, if they are even in the game, are usable objects in the game world that you "use" and then the PC climbs the ladder for you with no interaction on your part.

I am actually still bothered by any FPS that does not have Full Body Awareness. Frankly, I am disappointed in Deus Ex 3 for it's lack of FBA. You can take "cover" in third person, but you have no body otherwise? WTF? The game isn't even that old...

That drove me up the fucking wall.

That said, DE:HR is my all time favorite FPS, and my third favorite game of all time.

Skyrim has the same problem. No shadow from a character in 1st person because there is no model in that view. Pretty stupid.

BF3 has awesome, smooth player movements, including Full Body Awareness. I love the way the character jumps over obstacles, actually using his hands.

OK, that is some bull shit right there. How does a game like Skyrim get away with that? It isn't like they needed to make cuts for performance reasons or anything. That is just poor design right there. I mean, you move the camera from over the shoulder to into the head or, if you have to, right in front of the head.

That is just damn frustrating. FBA was fancy and new (in "modern" games with 3D) 10 years ago. That was even before the last generation of consoles so there really is no excuse for not including it.

Searching for Yatta's Stan parody I stumbled upon hilarious thread on 3drealms forums. Pure facepalmness.

Wow. Joe Siegler has now solidified his status in my eyes as a massive prat.
Not to mention the bigots in the thread who think black metal should be banned for all just because they can't listen to it.

*goes and listens to Keep Of Kalessin*

Some of these bigots post here.

Higher Game was such a noob. How do you go about recommending black metal but there's no King Diamond in there?

King Diamond is not black metal in any way, shape or form. Mercyful Fate - maybe, cause of whole thematic element influence, but surely not musically.

And he shouldn't have recommended anything since there was no point in recommending black metal in its pure form to people who hate it.

[X-Vector]

I still stand behind my suggestion to ban all the sick filth called metal 'music'.

What do expect when you require people to be online to play? EA, messing everything up, you really wouldn't think it would be that hard to make an improved version of SC4.

[Master Fibbles]

The problem is that the game is really good...just they never got their servers in order. I complained in the beta about it too. I'm sure I wasn't the only one complaining about the beta not functioning because of the servers crashing. They need to either have more servers or drop the cloud business.

Diablo 3 surely haven't bombed.

KD/MF is a good segway for getting into Black Metal though. Then you move onto Venom. All the common shit is garbage by the way.

[Kathy]

If only for the antics.

Celtic Frost is surely a better segway.

Do we really need to destroy the only thread on this whole board that has hit several pages without crumbling into an unorganized political flamewar? Save pics like that for the Blue Lightning threads.

Wait, there are Duke4 members that support the Westboro other than me? I think they're hilarious.

I am starting to hate winter. I have no clue how people can exist in even colder climates. Our winter season is like four month, one more to go.

I disagree.These so-called unorganized political flamewarz are what keeps these threads alive. Not everyone thinks they destroy threads. Maybe you should try conversing more?
