Come to Outcast Strategy for all your Multiplayer Needs!

Thank you for all the kind comments! As to the guys who sent stuff in, I'll have to ask you to PLEASE RESEND EVERYTHING TO kurgan@iastate.edu! My old account got screwed up and filled up, now I can't access it (gotta get the guys to help me fix that one).

 

Anyway, I was hoping to do some updates for the new 1.03 patch and this looks as good a time as any, since it appears we won't have an official one for awhile (if at all).

 

But, I still need to do some maintainence on my computer first, so it will be awhile, maybe a few weeks. Then I can start to add those links, so don't stop sending them in! (just send them to kurgan@mchsi.com)

 

PM's and posting here are fine, but it's a bit slower method, since I check my email almost daily, but don't get a chance to read every post on the forums.

Heres a quite hard trick to pull off, use strong style and crouch down, then when they are far away, flip backwards and use the jumping forward weird attack.... lol i dunno what the hell it is, or in other words the red special and then bam, they dont know what hit um, hey, it got me 30 kills in 1 game doing that!!!! :p

Ah, at long last, I have returned!

 

As some of you know, I had a nasty hard drive crash some time ago, making it impossible to update until now. I've now begun work on updating the Outcast Strategy page to include the changes in the 1.03/1.04 patches that were released by Raven.

 

Hopefully, if all goes well, the site should be ready in about a week.

 

Also, I hope to add some more content to the guides section soon. ; )

Sadly, you might not see any updates for awhile (thankfully I was able to mostly complete the updates I'd planned already) because I'm having more computer problems.

 

This time it's with Win98SE, ; p I can't even get into my OS without it BSODing on me. I tried to reinstall the OS but it just hangs as it tries to detect plug and play devices.

 

So, hopefully I can get it fixed soon, but, well... it really sucks.

Yeah, I don't know what it is. I'm no expert, but I know more than the average person about computers, yet I usually have one problem after another it seems.

 

It's not temperature, I keep my computer ultra-cool, and I treat it with the utmost care and respect. Oh well... ; p

 

Maybe it's because I still use Microsoft OS's.. heh

Update: After trying numerous things, and taking the ol' comp into the shop, it seems nobody really knows what's wrong with it.

 

Sooooo, I'm going to try the ol' MAGIC REFORMAT and see what happens. If you don't hear from me for a few days, call the President! (j/k)

 

Hopefully after I reinstall everything I should be alright (in the next day or so).

Hopefully this isn't starting a pattern, but I've now backed up everything important and successfully brought my pc (and sound card) back from the dead, and installed some new cooling fans (just in case!).

 

There haven't been any updates in while, as I've been busy, but behind the scenes sith is researching some stuff for our CTF page and we've got some other things planned in the future.

 

Stay tuned....

I sure do! It's what you get for being around in the community as long as I have. ; )

 

Then again, there's people who have been around for a shorter time but have more posts than I do, so go figure.

 

You should be seeing even more (hopefully insightful) posts when I get back from vacation (in a few days)...

 

Had a great Xmas/New Year break, played my first game of "Scrabble" and ate too much holiday food, heh

 

It'll be nice to get back to my computer and hammer out some more strategy goodness.

 

I see the forums have been combined, probably a good idea now that most people who wanted to will have beaten the game already (probably multiple times by now). ; )

Hey Chuahtemoc i know a used to be non jedi my brother.

 

He used to get favorite weapon ect,

I almost never saw favorite weapon lightsaber.

So when he played on my server I did lightsaber only so he wouldn't whip out a gun in mid battle to catch me off guard

That's a good point, and we have been consciously writing the articles that way, but you're one of the first to point this out publically. ; )

 

As for advanced strategies, we hope in the future to post some of these (like shortcuts through the maps, scripts, etc). However, most of it would go faster if people would send us stuff.

 

In the last few months we've gotten ZERO (0) submissions, it's rather too bad. Thus updates only come after we've had time to put in the gaming hours to discover/master these strategies ourselves. ; )

 

So now you see the problem....

That is EXACTLY what we're looking for. I'm not asking everyone who has an idea to become a staff writer (but that would be sweet if it happened), but contributing articles is what I had envisioned for the site all along.

 

It's just that after the initial euphoria of the game's public release and the first patch wore off, people stopped sending anything in.

 

Just because I wrote most of the material on that page doesn't mean I'm a grand master player either (in fact, the last week is the first time I've played online in months).

 

So whatever you can contribute, send it to kurgan@mchsi.com and I'll format and post it, with due credit, assuming it meets certain minimum standards. Message me if you have any other questions.

 

; )
