Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 08, 2004, 07:48:53 PM I know we've had this discussion before, but maybe we should start thinking of expanding again. Not into another online browser-based game, but prehaps into a commercial game. Personally, I would love if we would expand into Halo, or some other fps, because I specialize in those as my computer game of choice.
I'm just saying, most of us have a type of computer game we love to play, and most of us excel at what we do. Why not put our skills to good use in spreading The Great Alliance into new areas? Title: We need to expand Post by: SS on July 08, 2004, 08:16:22 PM Quote We need to expand Why?Quote prehaps into a commercial game / Halo So essentially you're saying TGA should be a clan?One problem with that is that games without persistant worlds (Halo, UT, etc) mean meeting up at specific times and playing matches against other clans. Which doesn't just require specialisation, or whatever, it requires lots of co-ordination and dedication. The good things with TGA as it is, is that we have a relaxed atmosphere, and you don't need to turn up at 7pm every Thursday, or whatever - you just join in when you can. I'm not opposed to having TGA take on the world through other games, but it isn't easy; it might just be better to stick with browser-based stuff. Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 08, 2004, 08:22:09 PM Maybe. I'm just saying that a lot of browser based games seem to lose their flavor fairly quickly compared to a lot of computer games. But hey, nobody's forced to do anything, so do what you want. ;)
Title: We need to expand Post by: diskreet on July 08, 2004, 08:28:01 PM anyone want to join in on some Americas Army (http://www.americasarmy.com/), Battlefield 1942, or Gunbound (http://gunbound.net/) action?

Only the crap ones. ;) Title: We need to expand Post by: diskreet on July 08, 2004, 08:33:57 PM you know.. many clans are large enough so there are not necessarily all the members on at the same time, but it is nice to be online w/2 or 3 members of your clan. in games like AA, teamwork is very important and it's good to know how your teammates play to be successful.
Title: We need to expand Post by: SS on July 08, 2004, 08:37:31 PM Ok, hmmm. Why not just have everyone list the games that they have/play online and any matches can meet up and play together, with a TGA|Name tag if they want, but don't actually go full-time into playing clan games and stuff?
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 08, 2004, 08:41:04 PM well, do to me being a lazy fuck, ive only got: Halo, and the ut2k4 demo.
but i just got a radeon 9800 pro a few days ago, so im hoping to steal a new game or two at some point. Title: We need to expand Post by: diskreet on July 08, 2004, 08:51:25 PM americas army is completely free. but it's huge to download. like 700MB
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 08, 2004, 08:51:54 PM well then, americas army it is.
*edit* woohoo! and it's only gonna be a 13 hour download! sarcasm *edit* Title: We need to expand Post by: diskreet on July 08, 2004, 08:55:20 PM want me to mail you a copy of the game on cd? :D
as far as a meeting place... IRC!!! IRC!!! IRC!!! whole irc networks are built around games and clans. Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 08, 2004, 09:00:56 PM nah, ill just do the download. i dont wanna pay shipping and handling and crap like that. *is a cheap bastard*
and yeah. maybe if we dont get too big, we can just use the current channel on chatchannel Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 09, 2004, 04:01:24 AM Well, for online games, TGA could expand into Wythia... *hint hint*
But how about making a clan in the only computer game I play: diablo LOL Or maybe Warcraft would be a better choice? :P Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 09, 2004, 10:55:12 AM well, maybe diablo2. but stuff like that is more for fun, instead of being a competition.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Filran on July 13, 2004, 04:15:39 PM Well for me, I play both Dark Eden (free), and Priston Tale (free until you reach level 40), and both support clans. I think. Can't remember. Yeah. They do. xD
Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 13, 2004, 05:05:27 PM oo yes diablo 2 would be fun
Title: We need to expand Post by: diskreet on July 13, 2004, 10:30:12 PM Quote Well for me, I play both Dark Eden (free), and Priston Tale (free until you reach level 40), and both support clans.

They do. xD are those text web games? how about a link or two?i'd play diablo2.. i just need to go out and buy it first. :ph34r: Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 14, 2004, 12:15:39 AM Diablo 2.. i remember when i used to play that... man i miss my lvl 99s...but anywayz, i'm up for it when ever you people are.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 14, 2004, 02:53:56 AM I had a level 27 or summit but got deleted because it was a ladder charector. fucking thing
and I always forgot how to use the friend options whenever a friend would whisper to me. probably thought i was ignorign him. Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 14, 2004, 03:44:41 AM I just use /f m blahblahblah and send my message to all my friends! LOL
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 14, 2004, 03:50:42 AM if we all played, would we all make new characters and lvl together? or would those of us with higher level characters be able to use them to?
Title: We need to expand Post by: Filran on July 14, 2004, 12:44:48 PM Dark Eden and Priston Tale are graphical MMORPGs. I use the same name on both of them who want to know. Darhalan and Demoriel. For the interested, links are www.eng.pristontale.com and www.darkeden.com/en/
And DE uses the english version of Grey! xD -cheers, because Grey is much better than Gray.- Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 14, 2004, 07:39:07 PM Well, since my account on D2 expired i would need help lvling my new characters on my new account. My account is KDFusion. Do any of you have the expansion to D2?
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 14, 2004, 09:03:40 PM *raises hand* ive got two necromancers for the expansion, both are around level fifty, give or take five levels.
ive also got some lower level things i can use. heck, im perfectly fine with just starting a new character. Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 14, 2004, 10:36:52 PM I have to try and remember my usernames. I assume we'd ne playign in the eastern realm even though I think the western one is better.
Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 14, 2004, 11:50:00 PM evilknight, PM me your username(s) and the time ur usually on that way you can help me with my new account..... if you want to that is.

eastern realm > j00 that, and i think most of us here are in the east. Title: We need to expand Post by: Filran on July 15, 2004, 01:17:48 PM I don't even have Diablo, so I laugh at you all!
Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 15, 2004, 06:25:31 PM Eastern Realm is down more than Western is. That and it generally runs a bit slower than Western does. Only because there are more people in it, though.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 15, 2004, 06:46:25 PM you can play in the west even if you don't live there.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Arkanor on July 15, 2004, 10:14:04 PM I'm really confused. Have we decided to expand into BF1942, America's Army, Diablo, or all three at once?
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 15, 2004, 11:31:22 PM well, all my characters are on the eastern realm.
let's just make a damn list. anybody who wants to try playing a group game of diablo2, raise your hand. then say wether or not you have the expansion. *raises hand* i have the expansion. Title: We need to expand Post by: diskreet on July 15, 2004, 11:53:40 PM is it worth the $20?
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 16, 2004, 12:04:28 AM definatly. it has awsome replay value to, because each level is randomly generated each time you play. aaaand, there's all the different characters to play as, each of which has three unique skill trees.
you wont be bored with it for a while. Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 16, 2004, 02:30:09 AM *raises hand*
I have the expansion as well. disk- It would be alot better if you bought the expansion as well because the normal D2 is a little boring and the armor and weapons are not as diverse. Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 16, 2004, 03:21:26 AM *raises hand*
I have the expansion, and a lvl. 82 cleric waiting to serve. :D Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 16, 2004, 03:29:11 AM Cleric??? i don't remember there ever being a cleric is Diablo 2...
Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 16, 2004, 04:41:28 AM *raises hand* i've also got the exspansion
Title: We need to expand Post by: Filran on July 16, 2004, 02:40:33 PM I only play free online games, or games in their beta. Sorry. :P
Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 17, 2004, 08:15:57 AM Quote Cleric??? i don't remember there ever being a cleric is Diablo 2... A cleric is a paladin that has meditation aura equipped (with max prayer synergy) and holy bolt as his main attack. His purpose is to provide healing and mana for the party (and utterly rape any undead units). He can't attack normally, though. :D All the builds are named, like Zealots, Frost Zealots, Avengers, etc (all those are pally builds... he he he). LOL Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 17, 2004, 08:55:29 PM So you have a paladin, you could have said that to begin with....and holy bolt?? last time i checked that was an incredibly stupid skill. Ok so it's strong, so what. It was slow and it sucks when it comes to pvp. Then again last time i played the game was version 1.09b. Oh well, atleast your pally will be good if i ever make a sorc.
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 17, 2004, 10:57:54 PM both of my necromancers are poison and bone necros. one's bone spear is doing somewhere between 800 and 1200 non-elemental/physical damage per hit.
but im fine just starting a new character. Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 17, 2004, 11:02:40 PM hmmmm.
from what i remember *damn adhd* fusionx wanted to play on tuesday. is anybody else open for tuesday? Title: We need to expand Post by: Everous on July 18, 2004, 12:01:41 AM uh-huh...I had a lv 42 Avenger a coupla years ago...dunno where my discs are now though
anyone want a game of UT2k4?...I'm really crap...but hey, I only got it yesterday or how about Battlefield 1942?...if anyone happens to own a server with a decent number of people on...or we could go find ourselves a good server Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 18, 2004, 07:54:23 PM Yes, I do want to play tuesday. It's the most annoying thing trying to start from the beginning by yourself. I might as well just play single player for that.
evil and lanair- I'm assuming your characters are non-ladder? Ev-I spent 2 days looking for the case to the expansion because i needed the cd-key. Then after i found i left it somewhere and forgot where it was... but i found it again. Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 18, 2004, 09:32:56 PM no, all my characters are ladder. if that's it, ill have to start a new guy.
Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 19, 2004, 03:44:58 AM Well i just started a new account and i have a level 2 zon so i don't care.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 19, 2004, 03:51:34 AM I'll try to play on Tuesday. I have a lvl 5 or so ladder cleric (don't laugh) and 4 non-ladder pallys, ranging from 81 to like 9. :)
Title: We need to expand Post by: Van on July 19, 2004, 04:27:20 AM d2 is a great game. if i still had it my level 30 sumthin would whoop
Title: We need to expand Post by: Arkanor on July 19, 2004, 07:03:44 AM Everous - I'm all for BF1942. Expansion, or the original? And we should probably just pick out a fast server that never has many people on it, and invade.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Everous on July 19, 2004, 10:00:19 PM I have Road to Rome...but not Secret Weapons...
Title: We need to expand Post by: opperdude on July 20, 2004, 05:07:21 PM we need to expand into barafranca!!! :)
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 20, 2004, 06:57:22 PM ok, it's tuesday.
we need a time, and a chatroom to meet in. and also if we're using ladder characters or non-ladder. Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 20, 2004, 07:57:09 PM we might as well use ladder-chars.
The time ... around 5-6pm.. or if u can't make it then just get on whenever you can and Pm my account (KDFusion) or evilknight's acc. (evilknight400 ... i'm pretty sure that's his...) so we know you're on. As for the chatroom, I'm assuming you mean the chatroom in-game and not on mIRC. I'm not too sure on this one yet. Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 20, 2004, 09:00:23 PM yeah, an in-game chatroom. just a place for everybody to meet up before we maek a game.
Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 20, 2004, 09:02:20 PM I'm playing right now. an hour early but oh well, i have nothing better to do.
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 20, 2004, 09:04:52 PM well, im hanging with some friends for now, but ill be on around five-ish.
i wish we could find biter, he's got a godly account. anyways, how about we meet on the East realm, chat room name "meangreen" (without the "s of course) i just stick with that because that's what biter always used when we played. Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 20, 2004, 09:41:54 PM I talked to biter but his connection is shit so he can't join us :(
I'm Goomba_rapist :) Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 21, 2004, 04:49:06 AM Oi- did I miss it? Hmmm... I think I'll start checking the forums more often.... or just add all of ou to my buddy list! LOL
BTW- my account's "Lanair" :D Fire- niiiiiice :P Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 21, 2004, 07:48:09 PM yes lanair, you missed it.
i played with fusion for a while, then with fire, then i had to go. you phail lanair. :P maybe next time or something. Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 22, 2004, 03:42:11 AM Well, I was on today, and none of you were. :P
I think I'll just lurk tomorrow, since I've got all your names. :D Title: We need to expand Post by: FusionX on July 24, 2004, 01:37:06 AM If we could all just get on at the same time though... if you people had Xfire then it might be easier.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 24, 2004, 02:10:13 AM I do but I'm never on :P
Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 24, 2004, 04:18:41 AM You people just got me re-addicted. :P
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 26, 2004, 12:34:58 AM i still find the game a bit boring these days. ive played through it so many times now.
besides, ive accepted my calling into the fps genre. and i personally think im doing quite well in it. Title: We need to expand Post by: Lord Lanair on July 26, 2004, 04:58:20 AM Well, my ladder cleric is now a level 31, so who needs a game? :D
Title: We need to expand Post by: Everous on July 26, 2004, 09:31:07 AM Quote i still find the game a bit boring these days. ive played through it so many times now. is that so? ;) besides, ive accepted my calling into the fps genre. and i personally think im doing quite well in it. I'd be happy to give you a game sometime...what do you got? Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 26, 2004, 02:02:13 PM very little. halo, doom2, ut2k4 demo, starcraft and expansion, star trek bridge commander, worms armaggedon,and diablo2 and expansion pack, if memory serves.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Everous on July 26, 2004, 04:05:28 PM uh-huh...
I have: UT2k4, Battlefield 1942, Vice city, Thief 3, Painkiller ...no match :( Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 26, 2004, 04:21:10 PM oooo. painkiller!
i have that demo to, i forgot to mention... but i dont think it has multiplayer capability... Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 27, 2004, 12:01:21 AM you could be a goomba and download it.
Title: We need to expand Post by: evilknight on July 27, 2004, 02:14:34 AM i probably will at some point. i just need to get the fecking motivation to do it.
Title: We need to expand Post by: Perdition on July 27, 2004, 02:24:17 AM *stabs evil with astick* the sooner you start downloading it, the sooner it will be done, the sooner you can play it.
Title: We need to expand Post by: DigitalDrunkenMonkey on August 02, 2004, 01:56:56 PM I only play Gunbound and RtCW:Enemy Territory online. Though i might go try out America's Army since it seems a few people play it.
