Hmmm... the deleted my post and every post that responded to mine in that thread. They also issued a perma-IP ban. Of course the fact I know they removed all of those posts shows that I've already made my way around the IP ban.

Idiots. I guess the idea that Darth Windu is the original leaker, hence his asshole tendencies when discussing the subject, rubbed a few too many the wrong way, eh? Or maybe it was because I challenged TGs BS in regards to development practices. Or maybe because killerbob didn't get any satisfaction from her crew of worshippers this morning, so she took it out on me.

I guess we will never know. :lol:

it's even not like Codex spammed every popular thread there with tubgirl and goatse :roll:
Actually, I dd post a tub girl pic there, in the Major Spoilers titled thread, the one about what was cut from the game. Pic was there for about 25 minutes before it was deleted.

I'm actually surprised they took it that hard. Banning the ones involved is completely understandable, but...Closing down registration in fear of somebody else doing a little trolling? Bunch of pussies.

Well, unlike a us, a bunch of angry cunts who has nothing to do but practice flaming on each other all day long (due to lack of good RPGs to discuss), they have a work to do.
On the other hand, given how 'fast' their work is progressing...

Anyway, that was pretty juvenile. You simply fell to the level of that dump ape PastramiX. Or have you always been there?

More like the whole God damn Fletcher class destroyer - do you even comprehend what kind of a POWH3R you want to unleash?

OK, I've been working very hard on this project, putting 6+ hours into it every day, and the already huge changelog shows it.
Hope that helps.

How could they ever understand the threat they faced, when they never walked the dark places of the internets?

already 6+ hours? it was like ~4 two weeks ago.
you know, obviously with your high intelligence you miss just a little thing.
Drog is 1 person working on it with lots of open beta testers reporting bugs, which according to Dashus can only slow down the process.
TG consists of 4-5 coders
that's 1 hour a day per person. and KotOR2 is an ideally debugged game without cut content compared to Arcanum. 4 months later Drog is left only with typos to fix, which means UAP is pretty much finished.
3.5 years later TG's Mantis even doesn't contain a 1/10 of bugs that people who've played the leaked beta encountered.
now try better comparing this shit next time, dumbass.

I guess the trolling was successful since they don't allow registrations, delete posts etc.

That's an old quote. Anyway, first version was released "Apr 11, 2008" and today is July 5. 3 months total, bitch. Bend over for your math lesson.
But it's not an argument since he was working before releasing first version and took a break not long ago.
And he's some sort of geek/programmer.

Now, TG.
Since you're stupid, you're obviously looking at bugtracker. You don't count scripting and testing they have to do to make sure they didn't break the game with their restorashun. And I think they aren't dedicated enough to spend more than hour a day (not every day too). They are just lazy.

I agree that if they've worked their asses off like Drog does, TSL would have been bugfree by now. But that's not the point.

The point is:
Lots of testers =/= all bugs are fixed very quickly
And that's why I called you an idiot. Now you instead of doing some mental effort are continuing to draw absurd assertions to support your "YOU SUCKA, I WANNA MY CHOCOLATE MILK" attitude. This shit doesn't make you "hardboiled", you see.

4 months later Drog is left only with typos to fix, which means UAP is pretty much finished
Wrong. The bugs are still there, just no one cares to abuse the game extensively.

This weekend will see the release of 1.0b1. It has been a long time coming. Especially given the amount of complaining some of you are wont to do
So STFU.

he was already saying that he worked on it like for a month, so good job failing again.

And he's some sort of geek/programmer.
oh so TG isn't? then why some lamers decided to mod a game like KotOR2?

Since you're stupid, you're obviously looking at bugtracker. You don't count scripting and testing they have to do to make sure they didn't break the game with their restorashun.
oh noes - probably Drog doesn't test his own patch unlike those TG pros.

And I think they aren't dedicated enough to spend more than hour a day (not every day too). They are just lazy.
so now you're proving my argument while trying to somehow put it like you disagree with me?

I agree that if they've worked their asses off like Drog does, TSL would have been bugfree by now. But that's not the point.
no that is the point. nobody asks them to work hard everyday. but to work for fucking 3.5 years just to restore a couple of endings, some party banters and a single area? nigga please.

The point is:
Lots of testers =/= all bugs are fixed very quickly

now stop twisting my words will you? I was saying that Dashus' words about open beta not being effective due to zomg! too much people posting bugs are bullshit.

Wrong. The bugs are still there, just no one cares to abuse the game extensively.
heh - people were even tried to nitpick the game with dumb characters and Drog fixed even those bugs. so nobody abused the game - oh yes. bugs always will be there. it's just now Arcanum is much more close to debugged state than KotOR2 with TSLRP.

so what did you try to prove by this quote? that TG "released" another build to troll the people who actually waited for it and actually never even thinking of letting them touch it, except for the chosen ones, thus proving that they are douchebags again?
oh and before you will post some retarded comment about this - they've created the whole fucking subforum with "closed beta team impressions about the mod" with lots of cocksucking from that closed beta team plus "we are playing it now, while you fags don't"

Drog's commitment and fixation in patching arcanum is unbelievable. Don't expect to find many modders like him. Also Drog is mainly fixing bugs, he is not restoring a huge amount of cut content.

neither TG.

actually Drog restored several endings iirc. he also bothered to hex-edit things in .exe to restore more animations f.e.
he also restoring other content like dialogues, icons, a whole models, weapons etc.
so I think it's the same league.

also if TG lacks commitment - why won't they let other people to do it? release TSLRP source which doesn't belong to them anyway - and maybe there is still a chance that someone will fix everything they didn't. or can't they just hire more moddies to help them? there were volunteers in first two years. TG just basically said "fuck you it's our mod" to them.
today somebody even posted "how about people will post their own fixes and you will take them and include into the project?". not bug reports - actual fixes.
Dashus response was "fuck you" again.
and some of you still protect those fags? Ander Vinz, seriously - people asked TG if they can post -actual fucking fixes-. now don't tell me that it wouldn't speed up the process.
their topics/posts got deleted btw.

Skyway, can you please start using capital letters at the start of your sentences? It annoys the fuck out of people when somebody writes a couple paragraphs but only bothers to capitalize the acronyms. Makes it a pain to read.

I usually don't bother reading long posts by people who don't capitalize or use punctuation. Too hard on my eyes.
