probably a silly idea

[CAC]

this is probably a silly idea but how about setting a server up running the "original" version of jk2?

 

[FragFodder]

You mean v1.02?

With its dodge DFA arcs and Pull/Backstab Problems*? Wow you are brave m8

* Yes Pull/Backstab was always there, we just didn't see it as much until v1.03 eliminated the bigger/more obvious DFA issues

hehe

I like the idea tho, never had the chance to play it online.. When I begun playing JK2 online, after a week v1.04 was released

 

[CAC]

hehe

brave? me? what are you thinking of?:touch:

its prolly just me taking a trip down mammory lane (typo intended)
but i seem to remember the v1.02 version being a whole lot more fun than the end result of v1.04.

now i dont want to start a mass debate,heated or otherwise

i just thought it might be fun

illl just go back to my little corner now and go back to sleep till the league starts

 

[FragFodder]

Heheh I know what you're saying m8

I'll have a word with the BW peeps but no promises, the reason I say this is simple... They have all the JK2 servers sat on the same box somewhere, so this would require setting up a new installation for JK2 purly for a single server. I'd be supprised if they're willing to do this. But I'll ask for ya

nice 1 m8

Wouldn't that mean, the players that want to play on it have to revert back to a previous version of JK2 to?

Or is it backwards compatible?

Re-installing Jedi Knight II yes

 

[FragFodder]

Yeah it would mean that those who want to play must have a separate JK2 installation without any of the patches.

Look, it's a fun idea, but I just re-installed my jk2 to freshen it up, full of junk.

And tbh, I don't think I want to have a second version of it on me computer just for that

 

[Damage]

Shaft: dont think you can add sigs

and jk2 v1.02, it's for the Die Hards around here

 

[Shaft]

Erm, and that from a person that didn't even play JK2 back then. :sleeping:

And don't gimme the lousy excuse like: "I didn't have a good comp to play it on." Coz you started JK2 on your old computer

 

[Damage]

that isnt a lousy excuse it's a fact...
I've played the Single Player game on my old pc, but not the MP game... cos when I created a server the FPS dropped like hell with only 3 bots init.

 

[Shaft]

JK2 bots seem to suck more of your CPU then other games' bots. At least, that is what I experienced.

These Jedi-n00b-bots drain ur CPU, that is the only thing they're good at really.

 

[Damage]

indeed, and when you play online you prolly have to deal with more than 3 players and if it's a FFA Full Force server...
I'd have felt sorry for my old Matrox G200 Millenium 8mb

 

[Shaft]

I felt sorry for you when I heard to bought a Matrox, while GeForce's were available

 

[Damage]

:lol:

We bought that PC thru our dads work, I couldnt choose something else than a Matrox card...
and that was like 4 years ago ish

 

[Shaft]

I know,

Still shit you couldn't pick something else. My old computer (not mine really, my dads ) had a Matrox G400 Millenium (16mb), but we got that vid. card for free.

It was a 'leftover' from my dad's university They put GeForces in their computers, so these Matrox'es were lying, useless on the shelf. So we 'borowed' them

oi if ya wanna talk about shite do it else where you have taken this off topicuke:

I'm sorry :/

I like the Idea, but it's not easy to set it up and get players for it imo

 

[Shaft]

Aye..

(We came to that conclusion already )

 

[RSO:Gray]

well tbh i would think it would be a good idea cos i doubt the subscribers would do lame pull/backstabd moves anyway

were all a nice comunity here and all know eachouther well.



/me pulls and backstabs :sleeping: j/k

 

[FragFodder]

Yeah but backstabbing is the issue, not necissarily the pull.

I remember people jumping into the middle of a pack of players and doing a backstab, guaranteed 2 out of 3 kills.

We'll see, I'll send the email tonight.

P.S. My spelling sux this morning
