<13> pwng3d
<15> sorry, I was just putting some pr0n there to free up my drive
<16> I was wondering if i could get some designer/gamer input here: I am working on a melee real time 3rd person combat system for my multiplayer game. The player will press and hold the mouse button, the weapon will wind, and strike, and will continue to be repeated as long as the button is held down. If the player releases the button as its winiding, it will no longer strike.
<16> A ray will be shot out as the weapon strikes, and will damager who ever is in the short melee radius. Any comments suggestions :)
<14> comment: huh?
<17> http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4698072.stm <--- Halo 2 to be Vista ONLY
<14> yeah, I saw
<4> no loss there
<17> MS should be sued over that :P
<18> lol
<4> theres much better fps avail
<18> Halo was never on PC
<18> ops
<14> HALO PC kind of ****ed...
<18> Halo 2
<18> I mean
<11> ya, Halo did ****
<14> HALO on xbox was pretty fun, at the time, and with that controller.
<14> HALO PC gimped the mouse...
<11> it plainly ****ed
<8> halo 3 will be out by the time halo 2 *vista* ships
<11> There were FAR better games out, grfx wise, gameplay wise etc etc
<14> it plainly did, judging by the sales numbers.
<8> yeah.. hl2 / fear / far cry are all a lot better than halo2 imo
<11> you mean, someone purchased it? :P
<11> must have been Bill's daughter
<18> Windows AERO interface does kinda look pretty cool
<14> HALO 2 had, what, a few million preorders? Like 5 million?
<14> bik, are you being an *** or what?
<11> we're talking crapBox though, right?, not PC
<18> 1.5 million nx
<14> xbox yes
<11> errr, bik didn't say anthing warranting you calling him an ***
<8> no, I'm simply stating that there are plenty of much better FPS than halo, especially on pc
<14> I misread what you said bik, sorry
<14> HALO 1 was very solid when it was released. By the time HALO 2 came out, things had changed.
<14> Things on the PC world, anyways
<18> playing first person shooter on console just ain't fun
<18> :/
<14> Anyways, 1.5 million is not bad. I've worked on plenty of games which never got that many sales in total.
<18> I was playing Call of Duty 2
<18> on XBOX360
<14> joystick < mouse for FPS aiming, certainly.
<18> the control is just ****y
<18> also I notice
<18> xbox360 wasn't anywhere what it claim to be
<18> there are SLOWDOWNS on xbox when playing COD2
<18> like for example if you play the british campaign.. and trailing behind a tank
<18> xbox slows down to about 8 fps
<4> awesome
<14> It's hard to know whether that's an XBox shortcoming, or lazy/inexperienced developers
<18> could be
<14> Or a rushed schedule
<18> I notice it especially when there are a lot more particles onscreen
<14> I would think that x360 could handle particles pretty well, but hell, I don't own one.
<18> yeh me too
<18> that was what I thought
<18> go down to your local EB store and play and see for yourself :)
<18> but yeh
<18> I think, console games are overrated now
<14> I have never been a console gamer, even when I wrote console games
<18> because of the control, most console games are just NOT suited for it because it's based on a 20 year old design... namely joystick
<18> joystick is really for 2D ONLY
<14> that's not quite right
<18> what they should do is to just include keybvoard and mouse for EVERY CONSOLE
<14> not right at all
<18> well
<18> a lot of FPS are now shipped to console game
<14> Joysticks are good for some games, and terrible for others, but that's not based on 2d/3d. For example, joysticks are great for flight sims.
<18> and it is really hard to play it or enjoy it
<18> with joystick
<18> yes flightsim
<18> but bad for FPS, RTS
<18> 3PS
<14> It's also good for some games 2d like joust. But I could name both 2d and 3d games which joysticks **** for.
<18> well
<14> nobody is arguing your basic point
<14> *against
<18> racing game ain't so bad with joystick
<7> what console ships with a joystick? ;)
<14> a decent joystick is actually better than a decent wheel for racing games.
<14> A really great wheel would be perfect, but I've never handled one.
<19> if an app is using direct input to handle its keyboard stuff, is there a way for me to mimmic key presses to this application
<18> yes
<18> if you imagine pressing it with your finger
<19> nice
<18> ;)
<19> damn it
<19> so i have to use the force
<18> what app are you talking about
<7> cant you just write your own device driver? ;)
<18> yeh what swx said
<18> hehe
<19> ugh, im gonna have to go that low
<20> hi guys
<20> i'm looking for online casino sites
<18> hefty, what app are u talking about
<19> trying to make an anti-afk thing for WoW for my friend
<18> ah
<19> he plays the game for like 8 horu sso hes really good at it ad he just leaves it alt tab
<19> but if you do it disconnects you
<14> monkeyisl, sheesh, ask google
<18> LOL I see
