    Standoff Chapter Four Now Available

    I figured as much, but just thought I'd ask :P

    Standoff Chapter Four Now Available

    I did this, can you make that special version for me? :) Or do you want me to do it in mission 1 as well? I generally find that one easier, so I should be able to.

    Standoff Episode 3 Released! (January 8, 2006)

    You've just gotta get really close; you don't have the range or projecile speed of most weapons, and the low damage output means you've gotta get a few shots in for it to matter.

    New Standoff Scoreboards Rank Wingnuts Globally (January 8, 2006)

    Aw, if I see someone beat me who isn't playing on nightmare (*cough Starkey cough*), it makes me sad :( All my mission 2 scores are nightmare, so my broadsword and crossbow scores can certainly be reached there. And yes, I usually die by getting overwhelmed by darts. If only I had darts...

    Standoff Episode 3 Released! (January 8, 2006)

    I just want to say episode 3 is awesome, and the new leaderboards are great! I guess I don't suck quite as bad as I thought I would compared to the oldskool wingnuts here. Hopefully, I'll get a good wraith score up (without crashing), since that seems to be the current top dog, even with the...

    Mission number two, episode three, man

    The next mission is much more fun if you fail to kill the snakeir anyway. A bit harder, but loads of fun. Makes me want to play the losing path... have to try it next weekend.

    New Standoff Scoreboards Rank Wingnuts Globally (January 8, 2006)

    I use the turrets a lot to drive away enemy ships, shoot down missiles, and get quick kills while my main guns are drained. Since I'm playing on nightmare, I also usually wind up having to shoot down 5-10 hs or df missiles with them too. Not like I'll be dodging anything much in a broadsword...

    New Standoff Scoreboards Rank Wingnuts Globally (January 8, 2006)

    Well, my thoughts were that it would be cool to be able to look at, for example, the top crossbow score and see exactly how it was achieved. Did he play on a low difficulty or a high difficulty, get a long ways into the waves, or just quick kill everything in sight. As far as display goes...

    New Standoff Scoreboards Rank Wingnuts Globally (January 8, 2006)

    Me too, but I'm quite rusty, as you can see from my scores... I keep getting beaned with dumbfires around wave 10 with most ships, and lose my afterburner or guns :( Too bad we can't see more details about the scores, like what difficulty they were played on, the time spent, what wave was...

    WC Art comes out of Nowhere

    Actually, there is a story behind it, but I forgot what he told me... I'll try to remember to ask him to post about it on Monday.

    WC Art comes out of Nowhere

    I am also curious as to how you found it, since it isn't linked from anywhere, and he's only used it in his resume... He was very surprised (but pleased) when I pointed this post out to him.

    What does Privateer 1.0 need?

    That would be a good idea to do with .wav files in general; convert them to decent quality .ogg for download and have the installer decompress them. It's not like the Privateer sounds are super high quality to begin with, I doubt the difference would be noticeable. Now if anyone has a (free...

    Strange ship sighted

    Looks awesome! Nice work! The scout always creeped me out a bit in the original because it is so big, flies so fast, and looks like its making combat passes at you or trying to ram you while veering off at the last second... Can't wait to see bad boy in the game!

    Whoa, pirates got one hell of a ship upgrade!

    So long as they don't use torpedoes against me too much, I don't care so much what guns they're using. The torps in the remake are deadly fast (kinda like the original), deadly powerful (just like the original), and treated like guns (which makes them much easier to use than the original, since...

    What does Privateer 1.0 need?

    Only one thing... discounting bugs I have three big things in mind, one is plot related so I'll leave that, another was something some people didn't use much in the original (I did) (but is more important in VS-style gameplay, it would seem *coughputtingdifferentgunsandtractorsonturretscough* )...

    Should we make plot ambushes hurt faction relations?

    My opinion is that it should hurt your relationships with factions. It is the most logical way to do it, and I'm pretty sure it is how it worked in the original from when I got irritated enough to actually try and kill the militia on Tayla's missions. In most cases (except in Palan) you're not...
