GonkH8er Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 But with dedicated servers, people will yearn for the sense of community the zone offered, however crude the environment may be. I'm in the zone rooms at the moment. Not much happening... Maybe I'll try and manipulate my registry so it thinks I have JO
Ulic Quel Droma Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 maybe its the people at that lan gonkh8er was talking about?
GonkH8er Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 no, the people at the lan dont get to play it. its ONE copy... and its up on a big screen... noone gets to touch it cept the activision rep and the oragnisers of the lan.
nykel007 Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 The usual problems of the Zone, I wasn't able to get in and see who is in there. That's one less thing I'll be doing when this game come out.
Zodiac Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 hmm I hope they're going to change the name of the game rooms. Use the force?? as a game room thats kinda.. lame. just as cool as "attack of the clones".
B0MBER II Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 no they just hacked into their registry and edited some stuff to let them get into a game
Kurgan Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 I'm sure it's quite possible for MSN staff to test the Zone without the final build of the game.. it's possible they're testing for compatability. We could speculate that those are warez kiddies with the full game, but if it hasn't even gone gold yet (much less had a playable demo released), that's highly unlikely. Or, alternately, they might have an early build of the game given to them specifically for online testing, and that's what they're using. As to hacking the zone, I have no idea if the security is as bad as it was back in the day... but you never know, this is MSN we're talking here. ; )
B0MBER II Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 There is a guy named Wolf@Zone in there and he says he has the latest beta of JK2 and should get the full game very soon. He also won't gimme info about Single Player, Weapons, MP and other stuff
Dark_Wolf Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 You won't belive this but, two people are actually playing right now at the zone my guess is that somehow they got to beta test it:mad:
Sithcloak Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 [jealousy] If they really do have a beta version, then there just to lucky! Why didn't they ask me? [/jealousy] It just means that we are getting closer than ever to going gold and actual release. Thats good. Sithcloak
digl Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 Originally posted by B0MBER II no they just hacked into their registry and edited some stuff to let them get into a game This could be if they are 'waiting', but not If they are 'playing' I think. They could be Raven/LEC/Activision/MSN people, not necesarily outside beta testers
Agen Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 Zoen have latest beta and are testing servers asked some punk who was palying. Grr!
JaG|Kaiser Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 Originally posted by GonkH8er But with dedicated servers, people will yearn for the sense of community the zone offered, however crude the environment may be. Most of the clans from the JK community have "graduated" to IRC, specifically irc.enterthegame.com . A number of online organizations associated with JK are on enterthegame (etg), such as TsN, teamwarfare, jk-mag, so on and so forth. IRC gives us the freedom to moderate ourselves, while not having to adhere to the inconsistent MSZone"Code of Conduct." It is an excellent meeting place. As we said when we founded #nar, a number of us feel that IRC will be the center for the JK2 community. People used the Zone, because that was the only meeting place available. But now we have IRC.
Kurgan Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 Actually one way to tell if the people in there are REALLY playing JK2 is to listen to how they talk... If they say stuff like "YO ***** WE KIK UR SORY *** YOU **** **** SUCK ******** UR CLAN DR00LZ **** 7337!!!111" and accuse each other of cheating, then it's pretty likely they are really playing (or at least doing a great job of trying to fool you). ; p
