Future Perfect is one of those rare games that I find genuinely funny. "It's time to split!" "Ah, ooh, you know what, I'll wait for the next elevator."

I’m sure there are a bunch of different ways to play Quake 3 online, but with that out of the way steamcharts shows an average of 30-50 people playing the steam version per night. https://steamcharts.com/app/2200

Indeed. Even if I always considered myself an Unreal player, I've had a lot of fun with Q3, Q3TA and various mods. Like UT, I always have it installed for the ocasional botmatch. id's legacy is strong on my PC with Doom and the huge amount of mods and wads, Quake 1, 2 and 3 always present on my PC since their respective releases.

Q3 is an excellent game. Its tight. Theres no fluff. It bangs. UT is simply more FUN.

What did Willits do, for that matter? Carmack has been known as a reprehensible rear end in a top hat forever and I saw the Petersen thing, but if either of the other two did anything awful it's news to me.

I don’t think McGee has been milkshake ducked but Willits seems to be a mini-Randy Pitchford, boasting that he invented arena multiplayer and sending threatening emails to McGee like “I butt hosed your girlfriend and she liked it.” Someone posted a big dump of Willits being lovely earlier this year.

ah, so he's just a garden-variety total dick, makes sense but yeah, the only thing I can really lay at McGee's feet at a glance is that Spicy Horse was sort of a lovely idea from the jump and mostly turned out insanely bad games. seems like an alright guy outside of that, and seems to specifically have been the target of most of the other id shitheads' fuckery.

willits was an office bully who is heavily implied in the rocket jump article / ebook to have slipped american mcgee a mickey when they were hanging out with trent reznor in order to gently caress with him and also once lied under oath in adrian carmack's post-exit contract dispute leading to the following nuclear bomb of an own:quote:In early 2004, John Carmack, Kevin Cloud, and Adrian Carmack offered id CEO Todd Hollenshead and lead designer Tim Willits ownership stake

Major props to this new Thief 2 FM, which combines a good, solid sinister-mansion-heist with a randomised murder-mystery to solve as well. Two hours in so far, I've solved the murder correctly, and I need to go back and do a bunch of optional objectives as well. In my case it was Lucy, with the knitting needle, and then throwing him off the roof.

Did they drop the "Planet Badass" subtitle? RE: FPS pistols - I always appreciate when pistols don't become obsolete once you pick something else up. I like the idea of having an accurate, fairly punchy sidearm to switch to when I want to conserve ammo for other weapons or if my main weapon's magazine is running dry. Stuff like the F.E.A.R. games, Perfect Dark and of course the glorious Halo: Combat Evolved Magnum (Reach's to a lesser extent) are all great pistols. Whenever possible I use an assault rifle/pistol combo; I just have a yen for automatic weapons and handguns. Hell, one of my most played games as of late is Receiver II, which has nothing BUT handguns. Also, semi-autos>revolvers. Again, I like high rate of fire.

Serious Sam 2 is kinda the only good one out of that mess of a series, and that's because it has a way smarter design method for how enemies come into the maps and just oozing personality.

There's also the pistol from Wolf 3D, but that's less because it's bad and more because with only 1 ammo type, it gets completely obsoleted by the machine gun.
