If you want to think of it that way, then yes; your existence is pointless, my existence is pointless, and so is everyone else's. All that should matter now is what we leave behind for others to enjoy; if there is anything waiting for us after we've become just so much compost, then well... no poin...

The topic title could be considered somewhat all encompassing. I started this post because I disagreed with an assumption in the excellent strategy guide. My explanation for the resource gathering system didn't seem to get any negative feedback (unless I missed something). But yeah I should have pu...

Hey, I got demoted from drunken to sober scav. I'm sure my classmate meant 'what are good mods after I'm done with singleplayer.' He He actually remembered Shabieyev (sp) and scions and biometal and stuff and seemed psyched that there was this active community. Mods shouldnt split a community. Not i...

Unicorns don't exist??? Lies. The only way this topic could become geekier is if all the posts had been written in Klingon. At least its nice to know people besides me think about this stuff.

So I'm in my class watching BZ films on youtube while my instructor prattles away when this guy sitting behind me tells me he used to love to play BZ. He's interesting in playing again and if he can't find his cd I will help him aquire the game (legally of course). Yay. He's interested in the mods b...

See, that sounds awesome. Honestly it didn't come through in the article that this is what you meant. Mass travels faster through less space. Heh heh. That sounds like one of the things you'd read in a physics book that makes you think. But all things being equal mass does move through 1 km of space...

Turns out my stuttering was a mouse/joystick issue. It happened when both were connected. If I disconnect the mouse the game becomes playable. But maybe I might have stolen this thread a little. Right now I'm messing around with some modding. My goal, to make the rifle able to shoot the bomber down....

Solved my own problem of why attack units were'nt attacking the enemy base. Yes there as a jammer deep in the middle of the base and surrounded by spires. Didn't see it. As soon as I killed it the my big orange buddies started shooting at the buildings with hot plasma death. Don't know why the maule...

I'm having a hard time with the concept of thinspace. What does it do,let us move faster?

Okay, so I'm reading the excellent BZ2 Strategy Guide when I come across this in Resource Model Section...and I quote "What doesn't make sense is that only ONE Extractor is ever ative at time. Even in a fantasy realm as Battlezone 2, this does not make sense and is counter-intuitive." Its ...

Was the enemy Scion? If so, did they have a Jammer in their base? Jammers protect nearby buildings from the reticle line attack orders. Enemy was scion. No jamming devices. (And I certainly didn't have anything to stop the maulers from ignoring my buildings. No, something has set buildings to frien...

Some weird weirdness back on my favorite map Alien Dunes. Check it out. Had Greenhart variation, Wug level Standard AIP, me isdf, borghoyzee (my computer) scion, playing it on hard (finally) both of us with medium sized forces, and just to be complete, respawn turned on. And neither attack forces wo...

One of the trends nowadays is toward less programming and smaller apps. I was a windows 8 evangelist (lol) and the whole thing there was to dramatically expand the number of programmers by simplifying everything and using more tools (like Unity or Expressions Blend) with an emphasis on using API (in...

Jab, you're a very quirky person, and I like that. But me and u are gonna have to agree to disagree on a few things. First BZ2 is AWESOME!!!!!!! Its like a first person StarCraft. How can you not like that? Its hectic. Your list of things to do always grows faster than what you can get done. And in ...

Just got Void destroyer and yeah, that's cool once its not so buggy. It stuttered and shook from the start. Really like the look of it though. Reminds me of Mobeus from the old Heavy Metal Magazines. I'm gonna see if I can get it working to some degree though...
