Kurgan Posted September 10, 2006 Author Share Posted September 10, 2006 Sorry guys I haven't fired it up yet, but I am going to shortly (within a half hour). It'll be up 1pm - 5:30 pm Central time (but I'll fire it up before I leave, so it will be up by 12:45pm at the latest, it's 12:03pm now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurgan Posted September 10, 2006 Author Share Posted September 10, 2006 Bummer. Oh well, I'll be home in about 2 hours or so. If people are still playing then I'll leave it up for awhile longer (I will be gone 8:30pm-10:30pm Central time too so I'll keep it up during that time in case anyone wants to get in one last match or something). And then that'll be the end of another fun filled weekend! (actually it was pretty much all last night, but still, I'll keep that in mind next time, saturdays seem the best for people).

Kurgan Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 Well gang, that's all for another week. Thanks to everyone who joined. Hope to do it again next weekend!

MasterRoss08 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Ya well, I had fun. Sad though the turnout we had. I wish more would come. Well, no offence to all you people who are busy etc. I may ask some of my friends that played Battlegrounds with and see if they wanna join in. Now for more pics. Will Vader do it? Kyle we are outside and you still feel Hot. -.- Hmmmm Let me try reverse psychology. Maybe then you'll cool off. Like my sculpture? Zappa agrees that I am his Master.

Kurgan Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 So many great shots, so little time! Okay, these are from a bunch of games, perhaps you'll recall some of the events in them. I tried to take some funny/cool ones, but some of them are just scores and records of who was there. Enjoy! (PS: Not necessarily in chronological order, but some obviously are) (May add commentary later, others feel free to comment on them!) Oooh, colored lighting, circa 1998! Notice how I'm in the lead... Now look... owned! Just goes to show anything can happen... This was a common sight for me that night. Not only did I get killed welcoming people to the game, but Andrew liked to strike dramatic poses over my dead body... Three way kill, ha! Ross got two points out of it though, way to fight back! "Biggest MotS game since 2003!" Yes, it's still fun to do this. Andrew finally flushes me out of my hidey-hole. Hutt Palace was made for Scouts!

Kurgan Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 Cloud City Gantry is a deathtrap! Tiny map with no health or shield pickups (just a few weapons, a surge and a boost) and very little room to manuver. It was pure chaos with our sizable group! Gripe was so powerful in this game! Even though I'm taking no damage (Absorb), I'm still virtually immobilized. There are lots of better counters to it, thankfully! Notice te27ch's bragging (I believe this was the same one that Andrew won). Just a cool pic. Here we are picking our teams for MotS CTF with personalities. Notice how each class has a different model (this was back before they gave EVERY skin a team color variant), rather than forcing you all to be Kyle in a different jumpsuit like JK1. "It's Christmas!" Yes, you can play with more than two teams in MotS CTF (just only gold and red can cap the flag). Cool game, even if I sucked! Defense Gold Wins. That's me in the water. (soldier sucks, except on defense, at least he does for me, too slow) This was an intense game. I had to stay alive until drew could get our flag back, which is hard when you don't have force powers! Persistence pays off. We won! (PS: Better learn to counter carb gun on that map!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Those pics remind me of back when we thought those were good graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Damn why didnt you all tell me there was more then just Kurgan and Ross in the game! Wish you all told me, but I was kinda busy with a friend. Oh well maybe next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 Moeller: Yeah, it's about time somebody mentioned the graphics looking dated (it was Feb. 1998!). Of course anyone who played the game hardcore back in the day can FEEL the fun oozing forth from these screenshots (which they fail to capture for everyone else). The game is so fast (making JA and JK2 appear slow by comparison), that you don't often stop and think about how low poly or low res things are compared to modern games. Damn why didnt you all tell me there was more then just Kurgan and Ross in the game! Wish you all told me, but I was kinda busy with a friend. Oh well maybe next weekend. See, that's a common mistake. Actually I bet most people when I post the link to the game in their inbox/IM window just assume that it's me sitting there by myself for hours waiting for people to play. They don't realize that I just host it and we have a handful of people here that normally show up and then I join when I can. The prospect of fighting me doesn't excite them. Either: 1) I haven't played in so long so I'll be no challenge. or 2) I'll be awesome at this game they haven't played in ages, so they'll just get pasted into the ground and it won't be any fun for them. Gamers today are impatient, if they hop on a server and it doesn't immediately have a big group playing an intense game, they leave, often without saying anything. Oh how they miss out! Not that this is you, but I imagine a lot of folks think along similar lines, preventing them from joining even if they have time to play... Don't worry, we'll fit you in next weekend if possible. This is a game truly worth revisiting (or checking out for the first time as JK series fan). PS: Are you still going to post that "Ghosts" video you said you took off the server?
