| 7405 | Moria/UMoria | games | -1 | the best | I've spent more time playing this one (first in the 80's, and more recently in 2002 on my treo) than all other games put together. Beware!!!! | 2002-11-22 18:20:09 | 0 |
| 7406 | Freeciv | games | -1 | Re: Freeciv | There is sound, but the act of installing the sound and getting it to work is sacred and known to a select few. These acts are ususally performed in secret ceremonies in the basement of one or another Freeciv project team leader, and only close friends and other Freeciv project team memebrs are allowed to watch.<p> Thus, working on your own you may or may not to be able to produce any vibrations from your speakers with it, but if you do, beware, for the great secret holds a great danger...... | 2002-11-22 21:10:01 | 4219 |
| 7407 | Tribes 2 | games | 3 | Shazbot! | This patch causes my framerate to drop by 30 to 40%... | 2002-11-22 21:39:14 | 0 |
| 7410 | NiL - NiL Isn't Liero | games | -1 | No more compilation | Too bad, the source does not complie anymore with gcc3.2 (I'm using mdk9.0). I have parsed the mailing archive, and the problem seems to be known, but I haven't found any simple solution (simple: understand : "for someone who only know how to compute a sum with fortran77") | 2002-11-23 04:45:09 | 0 |
| 7411 | Freeciv | games | 6801 | Re: Not as good as people say it is | Maybe instead of complaining you could help them write code, or maybe submit a tile set! | 2002-11-23 05:06:26 | 7386 |
| 7412 | Quake 3 Arena | games | -1 | Re: Quake 3 Arena | There are too many first person shooters on linux...and in general. There needs to be more variation in games. Doom 1/2, Heretic, Heretic2, Hexen, Hexen2, Quake, Quake2, Quake3, Unreal, Unreal Tournament, Unreal Tournament2003, Tribes2, Heavy Gear 2; all first person shooters and I own them all. We need more first person shooters! ERr, I mean NO MORE NO MORE...wait Doom3 last one, I promise, just Doom3 is last. And then Quake4 just like ID said, and then use only extensions to Quake4, I promise, oh wait here comes Duke Nukem3D Forever for Linux; can't miss that one, I own Duke Nukem3D Atomic...can't win...can't stop...I'm forgetting some...oh yes, Descent 1/2/3; and I own them all. ;-) | 2002-11-23 05:40:18 | 4218 |
| 7413 | Freeciv | games | -1 | Re: Old but still very chalengeing | I've been a knowledgable player for over 3 months and I still get destroyed by (1) computer. Perhaps that makes me not knowledgable... What am I doing wrong? | 2002-11-23 05:48:44 | 6850 |
| 7414 | Freeciv | games | -1 | Re: SDL client?! | SDL is not neaded. Even better than SDL would be fltk. However, using GTK+, I got it running nicely on my Agenda VR3 Linux PDA! Looks cool and with a serial-port external modem, I've played people on the internet! Alas, I still am destroyed by (1) computer because I don't know a strategy... | 2002-11-23 05:52:25 | 6053 |
| 7419 | Freeciv | games | 4553 | Re: Not as good as people say it is | This is a review section, not a developers' messageboard or a site designed so everyone can pat everyone else on the back and say 'good job' regardless of how well designed stuff is. Sure, the effort going into this deserves 5 stars- as is the case with most open source software- but the game does not. If you look at the comments, most of them can be summed to "This is the greatest game ever" type exaggerations, and whenever anybody expresses an honest opinion, somebody immediately replies with a "shut up and contribute" message. (I would, of course, gladly contribute if I were a programmer or an artist. I'm not.) | 2002-11-23 17:10:46 | 7411 |
