MAME Player won Donkey Kong Tournament (16 comments)
( News: Gaming)
Posted by Badb0y @ 14:19 GMT, 21 November 2012 - iMsg
On the weekend a Classic Arcade Tournament with Donkey Kong was held in Denver. DK is a simple looking game but hard to master. An average beginner overlives one minute on the first screen. The game has four different screens (barrel, pie, elevator, rivet) and that was a sensation at the release in 1982. What the game makes so hard is to control barrels (barrel controling with randomness) and avoid the unpredictable flame patterns.

Since the movie documentary 'King of Kong' (wiki, imdb, movie on youtube) from 2007 was released the game got a new attraction. Since then the gamestyle has changed because it was discovered that the game has a kill screen aka end screen (youtube) and new players started playing because of the popular movie. The goal is to hit a new worldrecord. For a new highscore a good strategy is needed, and luck. DK Experts believe a score between 1,2 - 1,4 million points is possible. To do a perfect DK game the kill screen must be seen. This happens at the start of Level 22. Normaly the points of this kind of game are between 900.000 and 1 million and the game length is around 2,5 hours.

These new DK players that started about three years ago, are PC MAME players using mostly keyboard. The winner of the Kong Off 2 Tournament is Jeff Willms, coming directly from MAME. According to donkeykongblog, Willms never played before on a arcade machine and could adapt to the arcade controls. The worldrecord highscore wasnt touched this time, but the tournament got many kill screens so that alone is history.

Sidenote: If you wanna found out about the "first progamers" check out another documentary called 'Chasing Ghosts: Beyond the Arcade' on youtube. It didnt end well.

BFG Edition Details about Multiplayer (4 comments)
( News: D3)
Posted by Badb0y @ 05:59 BST, 6 September 2012 - iMsg
Bethesda told some more details about the upcoming Doom 3 BFG Edition.


Personally i think it would be nice to have a Classic Doom Multiplayer in the bfg pc version, because Doom on pc started the whole deathmatch idea. But this would be a lot of extended work, like new netcode, selection on game modis, multiplayer maps, new multiplayer port, matchmaking feature, mutiplayer updates etc.

Right now PC Classic Doom has already three good multiplayer clients to play deathmatch and coop: ZDaemon, Zandronum (follower of Skulltag) and Odamex. So there is no important need for another one.

Also there is a new word about changes in the Doom 3 HD Remake.

In the first division of the Quake 2 European Duel League the two best Quake 2 duellers fought against each other (ESReality).

Quake 2 god Sweden PURRI doesn't need to be introduced. He won against Finland Damiah right before this match. Player Poland David is playing Quake 2 since a long time, but not in a competitive way or in any international tournament. This is his 3rd season of highlevel duelling so some people see him as a newcomer. EDL mappool contains new maps. Grand Final infos. Maybe it isnt really news because the game took place on June 14th, but it was a newsitem today on tastyspleen rssfeed.

Joe Goss from Tritin Films presents a new small trailer for the discontinued Arenas Episodes. We see Q3 Sarge in FFA Action. The second season of the Arenas was put on ice because, unfortunately, the funding attempt over at Kickstarter failed (it needed 8.000 dollars to succeed). Consequently, this could be the last Arenas snippet for a while. Joe might continue working on the series if he finds time and is able to gather the funding money.

Though, for now he is working on a new animated film project called "Spawnlings".

i have no hope for it because id hasnt time for that with working on Rage and Doom 4, and i think they wont to do another risk after Quakelive.

but the idea is good. maybe you sign up!

This is a petition for "ID Software, LLC" to remake "Return to Castle Wolfenstein (Multiplayer ONLY)" for "PC".
We are requesting for "ID Software" to update the graphics to reflect modern day games. We also request new maps as well as the old. We also request "ID Software" to stay away from anything resembling the 2009 "Wolfenstein" title, this includes the engine used to run the game and NO iron sights.

The movie features both strafe runs (mode 1) and weapon runs (mode 2) in CPM and VQ3. All the runs are taken from speedcapture.com and some were done last minute for the movie to make some maps shine even more.

ESL Major Series Season VI – Quake Live 4on4 TDM

Last thursday 4Kings and Fnatic met in the EMS Winnerbracket final. Both teams on the field were missing one of their top players, Slovakia JoCKo from 4Kings and United Kingdom Deus from Fnatic.


Presumable Fnatic will emerge victorious from the Lowerbracket so Fnatic and 4Kings could be once again face each other, this time in the Grand Final. Fnatic must win 2x Bo3 in the Grand Final, thats the rule coming from Lowerbracket. Grand Final will be played after the ESWC event, that means in two weeks.

For all people who missed the game, LvLup just released the VoD from the thursday match. It seems right now to watch onsite isnt working so download the file (600 MB on Fileplay). Shoutcast from United Kingdom Betija & Belgium Trance.

120 Hz TFT monitors (12 comments)

Posted by Badb0y @ 23:10 GMT, 13 January 2010 - iMsg
The most recent important hardware releases when we talk about gaming & hardware are the SteelSeries Xai Laser mouse and the arriving of 22" 120 Hz TFT monitors. Every gamer has heard about the two new models, Samsung 2233rz and Viewsonic VX2265wm FuHzion. Acer and Asus will release new monitors as well.

Opinions are going from "my old TFT is okay, but if the technology getting better i will buy one" to "it´s the best TFT i´ve ever had for gaming" or "CRT users grab the new TFT's, you will be happy for the first time". Some of us "hardcore gamers" are still using a CRT for some reasons but my feeling is the CRT crowd will getting weaker since the arriving.


I dont want to open up another topics to discuss and mini-review the experience so please use our existent Hardware Forum for that. Tell us what is your experience with the new models. Do you feel input lag, is there a smoother better gameplay?

every old quake 3 player heard from this mythos/legend, that with value "0" you do more damage. please dont come with official explanations i know that this should be only a visual effect :>

i wanna ask, in baseq3 (or osp, cpma is different as we know) or ql (with anti lag code), do you think its true that "0" makes more damage? if not, who is saying this all over the years.

only thing i know is, how i see the LG beam is never the real thing.

Shoutcasting team Level up, United Kingdom nVc and United Kingdom Disrepute, did some live castings of the EMS Season 5-Qualifier Cups.

Because there is no GTV available and pretty much no coverage of TDM yet, they streamed games from the qualifier cup #3, and #4 on last sunday. Sometimes TDM players joining them so the comments they make should be a bit more in depth. Level Up try to have in the future more "pro" players on the castings, like they had with United Kingdom deus yesterday.

Top 4 teams of each of the 4 qualifier cups went directly to the ESL Major Series. This 4th EMS TDM Qualifier Cup it was LowLandLions, fnatic, refuse2lose and East Front. It was very late the last matches were played, fnatic won.

EMS TDM Qualifier #4 VoDs
refuse2lose vs steam, refuse2lose vs northstar, East Front vs refuse2lose, fnatic vs refuse2lose
nvcgamer.eu/lvlup - press play, then at the bottom of that it says "on demand" > Quake > ESL > Extreme Masters

So now we have the 16 teams that are going to the ESL Major Series finals! Isn´t it great?!

Marty Stratton about Premium Service (11 comments)
( Forum: QL)
Posted by Badb0y @ 17:07 BST, 23 October 2009 - iMsg
In an Interview with id`s Community Manager Peter Sokal on Bethesda Blog, chief of the Quake Live Team Marty Stratton talked about the premium service.

Is he talking about "private server" = private match on demand, configurable through quake live site?
And what did "content" mean, maps perhaps?

Marty:
We’re toying with a number of ideas for features, functionality, and even content that will translate well and represent a real value for players wanting an affordably-priced premium service. One of the most requested features in QUAKE LIVE and something that I think would be at the core of any premium service, would be the ability to very easily and quickly start a private match (that only you and the players you invite can join). Right now, all of our matches are open to the public and started by our back end systems. So, what we’re looking at creating is a totally integrated and very easy to use method for starting and running a personalized private match.

It’s a similar concept to players in other games renting their own server, but our approach would be to allow them more of a “private match on demand.” Making this type of system available through the same site you are playing the game on, allows us much more flexibility in making the interface easy to use and more integrated with things like your friends list.

Quake 3 Arena Road Tour from 1999 (3 comments)
( Forum: Q3)
Posted by Badb0y @ 16:51 BST, 22 September 2009 - iMsg
Not long ago i wrote an article about the "Quake 3 Arena Road Tour" back in 1999.

It was a promotional tour for the yet not released Quake 3 game. The big black and evil looking bus drove to the south and west in the USA. The bus itself contained 8 lan stations ready to play Q3 in an early version.

My article is in german, sorry its too much work to translate, but you get an idea of the road tour if you read my used main visitor sources of this report.

Jason "loonyboi" Bergman blogged the tour 4 days long for bluenews

Dennis “Thresh” Fong visits the tour

TexorcisT was pissed that the tourstop in Austin University had no promotion t-shirts for him. Ten years after the tour i found out why, according to the bluenews blog one tourstop before a paket with t-shirts was missing or stolen :)

Trillian visited the tourstop in Portland, Oregon and lost against her man with 1 frag in the competition, excuse "i had no sound" :D
It seems sometimes the site is down, then wait a little while.

And we have Russell “RadPipe” Lauzon, he was on the last tourstop in Los Angeles near the Activision Headquarter, on the last final tour party, and he helped to get the equipment out of the bus, buhu :(

Q3Min based on ioQuake3 (7 comments)
( Forum: Q3)
Posted by Badb0y @ 18:14 BST, 31 August 2009 - iMsg
There is another project as a alternative to Openarena, called Q3Min (Minimal) based on the free and advanced ioQuake 3 engine.

The goal is to released all content under GPL, and of course for free, except the maps. Check the Q3Min Hompage and their forum.

"This is a community project managed by dedicated Quake III Arena enthusiasts. Its purpose is to provide a freely distributable minimal version of Q3A that is fully compatible with the original game created by id Software. We wish to make a package that can use different mods as well as custom maps made for the original game Q3A. The package should have a reasonably small size for easy downloading.

We do not intend to stop when the first fully functional package is released. We would like to implement, test and maybe permanently integrate different enhancements suggested by people on Q3A forums. We want to make a game even better than the original!"
Background (dont know if its true)
It seems the background is a conflict with the chief from Openarena, Leilol. A team did 80% of new textures for Openarena but it wasnt Leilol not enough GPL´ed, so this team is now working on their own Quake 3 Version.

You can download the dm-maps seperatly, and rename all the .zip to .pk3 in a directory with the dos command "ren *.zip *.pk3"

Patch is available via autodownload or manually, client & server.

The retail mp of Wolfenstein was identicall with the leaked beta before the patch.

Hannes, the creator of ETQWpro, started working on competition mod WolfPro (Source).

In the meantime the young Endrant Studios who is responsible on the multiplayer part of Wolfenstein, announces layoffs just on release day of the retail version (Source). To let people go is not uncommon in the gaming industry after a title is done.
Bu the question is, could the studio deliver future updates with less people.

SK-Gaming: So what do you think the future of Quake Live is? Will it become like Quake 4 or will it survive for ages like Quakeworld is doing right now?

Vo0: I don't know, I think its, I hope it will, I hope it will be very popular but I think after a while people will just go back to Quake 3. Because Quake 3 is still technically better then Quake Live because it has many more features, Quake 3 CPMA, then Quake Live and people will get bored of Quake Live easily, so I hope you know I really hope that Quake Live will make it but its gonna be a tough challenge.

Sad day for all Unreal Tournament fans out there. Tim Sweeney, Epic Games founder, Technical Director, and CEO says that Epic will not release a full retail version of Unreal Tournament in the next several years.

Tim Sweeney
"Unreal Tournament is certainly a major long-term priority but we're planning not to release a major retail game in the series for several years. So we have that effort somewhat on hold while we work on a few other initiatives."

Sweeney did add that Epic will continue to support Unreal Tournament 3 modding efforts, and is planning to "open up the engine to more people to use freely" sometime in the future. He even jokes that Unreal Tournament IV and V could be primarily made by the Unreal Tournament Community.

Arena Live as a browser game for Linux (100 comments)
( Major News: Q3)
Posted by Badb0y @ 11:34 BST, 6 July 2009 - iMsg
Arena Live is now released as a browser game only for Linux OS and Firefox browser.
Arena Live is the free Quake3 Clone Open Arena, based on ioQuake3 engine, an extendend version of the id tech 3, with less bugs and more added features. Open Arena comes with own built content like new textures, models, maps, weapons, and sounds.

In the future Arena Live will support other OS. For playing you need a quick registration on the site. It´s more like a demonstration and experiment i guess, haven´t tested it by myself.

QUAKE Live support will go on (45 comments)
( Major News: QL)
Posted by Badb0y @ 15:42 BST, 26 June 2009 - iMsg
After the sale of id Software there are more interviews held with id John Carmack.

About QUAKE Live.

How about the focus on some of id's less big budget games? So, thinking specifically about the iPhone stuff that id's been doing, the mobile stuff, and also projects like Quake Live. Is that going to continue to be a focus, not only at id, but at ZeniMax in general?

John Carmack: "It probably stays at about the level that it is right now [...]"
CEO ZeniMax Robert Altman: "[..] and about the other part of your question about Quake Live, it will go on unchanged as it always has. It's something we are supportive of."
~ joystick.com interview

Hollenshead said ZeniMax's acquisition will allow id to grow its internal teams, staffing up the groups working on the next Doom — which will now be a ZeniMax game — and the Quake Live team, for starters.

QUAKE Live adding new TDM Mode (102 comments)
( Major News: QL)
Posted by Badb0y @ 18:36 BST, 10 June 2009 - iMsg
Marty is posting on the QUAKE Live forums:

Blood Run was built for Duel competition, but we're also enabling it for play in Free for All and Team Deathmatch.

Speaking of TDM, we used the QUAKE Live down-time last night, adding duel map Blood Run, to also make a change to the Team Deathmatch server configurations for higher skilled players.

We've had a number of requests to have weapon respawn times in Team Deathmatch set to 30 seconds. This creates gameplay that is difficult and frustrating for newer or lower skilled players, but we understand the value for players and teams that are higher skilled and particularly understand the nuances of TDM strategy and gameplay.
To accomodate both types of players, we've set our higher skill matches to use the requested 30 second weapon respawn times (these matches will be labeled 'pro TDM'), but left lower skill matches unchanged (these will continue to simply be labeled TDM).

This is good news ESR readers!

Left 4 Dead 24-hour until Saturday (23 comments)

Posted by Badb0y @ 00:10 BST, 30 April 2009 - iMsg
Valve announced today that it will run a 24-hour free trial for its popular multiplayer shooter Left 4 Dead this Friday.

The trial will begin on Friday at 12:01 AM GMT (7:01 PM EST Thursday), and will include the recent Survival pack content, which introduces a new multiplayer game mode and two additional Versus campaigns.

Those who wish to give L4D and the Survival Pack a try may now pre-load everything needed to play with no obligation to purchase. A free Steam Account is needed.

Personally I hope to see some known ESR faces in L4D to fight against the zombie hordes, join the already existent ESReality Steam Group (41 members!) so we can play together.

UPDATE Valve extended the free friday 24-hour trial of Left 4 Dead (PC) through the night until Saturday at 5 pm GMT!

Obsidian wrote on ClanBase Clanbase:

After the monthly statistics I thought there might be some interest for a yearly overview of the work of our Cheat and Abuse department. I gathered the statistics for cheat cases stored on ClanBase for 2008.

First some totals
In 2008 we suspended 7032 accounts with a total suspension period of around 21000 years, which makes the average suspension 36 months. Not every human is unique, some might return with a new account, some get suspended multiple times. A few people have been suspended 4 times, however most players are suspended only once.

Overall numbers
The number of suspended players per game might not come as a surprise after last months rampage. Call of Duty 2 leads the ranks with 41%! The entire Call of Duty line of games makes up for 55% of the suspended players.

Most people are cheating in a public server!


See more pie cake pictures (cheats per game / type of cheats / cheats per day) and read the conclusion from Obsidian|CB.

Pappy-R wrote on Planetquake.com

It was on this day back in 1999 that id Software announced the "gold" status of Quake III Arena, which meant that the game had passed testing and was considered complete and ready for replication and retail distribution. In other words, the game was done and soon to be in our hands! That was nine years ago and this game has refused to lie down for anyone, just like the Quakes before it. Quake III is still being used for competition, it’s still being expanded by the creative community and is still played daily by a whole lot of folks, including yours truly. So on this day I'd like to wish Quake III Arena a very happy birthday indeed!

Germany N0jji posted on readmore.de a little interview with Sweden Cyrus "proZaC" Malakeni.

Nick: proZaC
Name: Cyrus Malakeni
Clan: Team Excello
Ex-Clans: SK, NiP, QPO, p1mp

N0jji: Hi proZaC, can you please tell me who you are, your gaming history, what clan you play and age etc..
proZaC: Yo, my name is Cyrus Malekani I'm 23 years old. I've got an extensive gaming history but lets just say I was big in q3 and right now I'm in team excello.

N0jji: For how long did you play seriously?
proZaC: Seriously huh ... Well I'd say from 99 to 03

N0jji: What do you think about swedish players, what about their aim and configs?
proZaC: Well the swedish players have always had great aim. Top of the line.
But their configs ... that's a weird question I dunno? I guess they're good?
N0jji: =) swedish players must rox because you rox to
proZaC: Haha well sweden has always had plenty of high caliber players to offer the e-sports world.

N0jji: What your parents thinking about your gaming?
proZaC: Well at first my dad was sceptical. _Very_ sceptical. But since he realized he couldn't stop me from playing he kind of eased up on me. But in the end any parent is proud of their offspring as long as they're trying hard to accomplish something.

N0jji: Tell me please your biggest successes.
proZaC: Well LA7 hands down and then EC5 - which earned me the title player of the year of 2002. I'd says that was the peak of my career.

N0jji: What is proZaC's day? Can you describe one of your usuall days?
proZaC: Depends - weekdays is mostly like, get up at 8 get some breakfast, go to work Finish at 18, go and work-out, get home at like 21.
Eat my dinner, watch something and then code til 23-00
and then it's goto #1 it's more exciting than it sounds

N0jji: Why you take nickname "proZaC" ?
proZaC: Well first it started out as a fakenick, back in the quakeworld days. Then the nick kind of stuck to me and I think it describes me as a person

N0jji: What in life do you do besides Quake? What other interests do you have & do u have a girlfriend :]?
proZaC: Can't say I got a girlfriend but some friendly girls.
Well right now I just started karate again after 4 years so I'm pretty fired up about that. Hanging with my boys and just go cray-cray on the weekends I guess.
Playing games is still a passion of mine, but there isn't that much time left for it xept for mariokart with the homies

N0jji: Your favorite map & weapon?
proZaC: Depends, 1v1 or 4v4? or 2v2? =)

N0jji: all =)
proZaC: 1v1 - ztn, I guess
2v2- dm6
4v4 - ospdm5
I like all weapones, it mostly depends on the situations
But sg and lg are favourites
and rg ofc

N0jji: Who are the top 5 Q3 players in your mind? Who is your favorite player and why?
proZaC: Such a tough question =) czm, fox, purri, 2gd, [EYE]RoLLER from back in the days
I'd say [EYE]RoLLER cause he used to buy me booze before I was eligible (sorry if the cops hunt you down because of this bro!)
And he's a helluva a great guy =)

N0jji: What mode do you like most, duel, tdm or cpma ?
proZaC: tdm - hands down.

N0jji: What is your mouse, keyboard, headphones and mousepad? an wich settings you use?
proZaC: settings, whaddya mean? There's tons of em. mouse - Logitech mx510
Keyboard - dunn some random one with good buttons.
Headphones are sennheiser something something.
