Post by: BTs_Mysterio on August 16, 2003, 01:23:21 am
Woot....yea....all that shit:

The expected release date is late october.

P.S. Yeah, all went well with all that BS making me vanish, sorry to get all your hopes up  ;). Better plan for the worst, and pray for the best.

But the real question is will it have GR support. RvS for PC has internal servers.

But the real REAL (!) question is will GR be around to give it support to begin with!

10 bucks it will not work for Game Ranger...Raven Shield runs off of a cd key server and ubi log in within the game.

I think the GR going down talk is alot of bs my self, if it wa so bad, why wouldnt he sell it to mac huh?  I think he's making enough $ to get by np, and as for all this talk.  All its doing is getting him more prem. members err $.  Not to say i dont love gr, and that i wont be paying 50$ to scott the geek evil come 2 weeks from now, its just i think all this talk of gr dieing is lame


ya raven sheild looks good...

John Phelps: At this point in the development, we aren't sure how the server browser would work.  However, we will try to get it working with GameRanger.

I dont think gr is going down so we probely get this game working on gr.
woohooooo

Raven Shield will be cool, but who the hell wants Splinter Cell now that everyone has beat it on either an Xbox or a GameCube.  Not to mention it doesn't have multiplayer...

i'm happy that redstorm isn't making the engine. Their elite (and lazy) team of  former visual basic programers have pissed me off too many times. At least RVS won't have 14,000 assets in mismatched folders that don't follow any conceivable naming convention with the UTWarfare engine, but they could fuck it up.

The real question is if you will still be able to hump!


RvS looks pretty good, but only time will tell

copy-paste from the IMG chat last night.

"Project status right now has both games at first playable (and they looked pretty good), we expect them to reach Alpha very soon."

(http://homepages.compuserve.de/Susasami3/Smiles/smiley1/sm-eek2.gif)  This will create a huge bl, I just hope GR is still around when it is released.

looking at the ss's from the site of rvs....looks shitty to me....kinda like a cartoon

 Well, I too think those screen shots look really lame, I can tell you that the graphics are exellent.

Raven Shield has very realistic graphics, however, it looks like shit at a low framerate, that's the reason that I'm worried that RvS for mac will be shit.

one of the things i hope you can still do is go prone, but i doubt it unless you are sniping

oh yea, the thermal imaging on the scopes looks great!

i have also heard that you can only throw frags at one strength , i hope i heard wrong


Title: Re:Rainbow Six 3: Raven Sheild
Post by: Typhy on August 17, 2003, 09:19:11 am
 Yes, you can lay prone, using any weapon.

About frags: Sorry, you heard right.

     It's a damn shame that the Omni Group isn't handling the porting. I've never seen a bad port by them.

true true but that's way compensated by the fact that you can throw them
whilst running. ..

the game looks good to me and the also i read that people hated the ragdoll feature, like when a guy falls down the stairs his arms and legs go flying everywhere, if this gets GR support itll be probably bigger then Ghost Recon

What I disliked about Raven Shield was the fact that not only was their recoil in the reticule, but you experienced a kind of Ret Knock after shots with all guns: varying from great changes in say an m14 to minor ones with a pistol. It makes you feel like your screen is shaking I guess. . . maybe some of you will like it but I certainly didn't and ended up just running around with my Mark 23.

BTW you clownsacks I was on the IMG and the Asypr nerdlings said that it will have GameRanger support liek oither games in the past


Title: Re:Rainbow Six 3: Raven Sheild
Post by: Maniac on August 20, 2003, 04:59:47 am
I hope GR will be around to support RVS if not there will be other ways to play it.


Title: Re:Rainbow Six 3: Raven Sheild

Most likely though giehspy if GR goes down the shitter

Typhy, you obviously havent played the game in a long time, and if you have, you are retarded. There is a secondary fire key for a reason...main fire is an overhand throw, secondary is an underhand toss...not to mention you can change your power by dropping to a knee (since it takes the power down).
