Not to worry, stalking takes way to much effort and I'm a rather lazy person.

If I could actually play any games online with my computer I would get it. Un-fortantly, my satillite connection forces me to go to a interent center to play online. Edit: Wheeee!!! I got it... Yay... Dunno why.

Thats a big "if" dude...

Computer Information Science major... To be shoved into a cold, dark room and told to fix a computer owned by a person who shouldn't have one for $7.25 a hour... My most likey-to-happen dream is to be hired by a computer game developer that is being created by some computer/gaming geek friends of mine back in New York and (this part may not happen) actually help create a successful game. *edit: nasty spelling mistake

The one and only digital picture of myself... This is from my High school senior trip to Disney World about 1.75 years ago, where the only things I did was 1) Go to the sushi shop in Epcot's Japan (good susi is awesome stuff) 2) Play Final Fantasy Tatics (it just came out and I was addicted) 3) Go on Rockin' Roller coaster. Mind you I just got up also to find a camera aimed at me and I slept in the bathtub... Seriously, 5 people to a room, there wasn't even floor space in the main room, so I kinda look like hell. This is also the only semi-recent casual pic of me without my omni-present NASA hat on, which I got a few years earlier. Oh... And this is when I tried to grow a Goatee, I cut it off a few months later after I figured it made me look Amish. Lets see if my HTML skillz are still good *edit: they don't have to be it seems. Yay for img button!*... Darn, have to edit the pic first... Forgot I was flippin' the camera off... I hate having my picture taken. http://pix.aregner.com/uploads/1127525122_scanEdited.JPG Paranoid warning: To any stalkers, be aware I am very, very proficient with my great-grandfather's Colt .45 1911 which has ben passed down to me and I live in Michigan Miltia country (read: lots of red necks with big guns, some of which I know on a personal basis.) That and I know several cops through the criminal justice program at my college. I had a friend get stalked by a internet lurker and am not willing to go through that experience. I kid you not on any of this...

HA!!! I was right! That Dreadnought/Carrack/Lancer looking thing was a new unit! Time to collect on some of my bets....

Mmmmm.... Necron.... I was hoping the Tyranids would get in, but Relic said they couldn't do the 'nids "right" with the current game engine. Also THQ mentioned they aren't dropping this lisnce anytime soon, so I'm guessing the the next Warhammer 40k RTS will have the 'nids in it. But I can accept Necron... The undead terminators as it were... So Necron units were in the game right? Or was it just thier buildings and stuff? If they had units modeled, it would speed up the release of a Necron mod. Anyone get to take the Baneblade for a spin yet? And how does the fortification ability for the Imp Gaurd work?

The exspansion finally came out Wednsday here in the States... Anyone get it? How is it? I have my copy all paid for, but unfortantly this small town hell-hole seems to be an after-thought for the distribution depatment of Sam Goodies (the only store that sells decent games). It is now Friday and Winter Assault, which I said came out on Wednsday, won't be here untill next Tuesday, maybe. My bet is for Thursday... [/i]

That and FPSs never took off in the east like they did here in the west... Speaking of Khorne, I must make an angry post in the DoW thread...

Forget capturing... I wanna blow everthing up!!!!

.... A gaming modification is where you simply take content of a game and either expand upon it or make something new based on the game's resources. You can literally mod any game if you have the right software and skills. You do not nessicarly have to have any official mod support (like a map editor) to make one, though it does simplfy the task and makes things generally easier. If you have 3dMax or something similar and know a little coding for the game you can add entirely new units to the game, and other than adding new or re-coding old files, never have to touch anything the game provides. I'm sure Petro will throw something simple in for EaW, like an editor where you can adjust atributes of a unit type without having to go through all the coding. Though I doubt they'll have anything powerful or complexe enough to create entirely new units. Warhammer 40k: DoW had something like that which you can download if you have the game.

Is the zombie mod still going? All the servers I went to are down now so I can't play it.

If ya'll play a lot of FY I guess I could... Do you have a server or something? What are your primary maps?

I want my EA faction!!! The Borg are so much cooler than anybody else, I mean their name is even cool. Say it with me now, Borg. Rolls right off the the tounge. It's single syllable name is far supirior to those multiple ones. Cardassian, wtf, thats 4 syllables. I'm a busy man, I've no time to enunciate 4 friggin' syllables. Even their name strikes fear into the hearts of everything. "0|-| |\|0z! 1+$ +|-|3 |}0|26!!!" See!?!?! I type it out the cries of fear normally and it comes out as Ultra-1337, thats how cool they are. It could be Borg vs. all and the Borg would still own.

Sorry, no pie. But I do have some wicked sweet cookies!!!

The reason I have the Indedictors is to have them as picket ships outside the main fleet to drag anything trying to hop in the midst of the fleet back into real space. This would give my fleet enough time to assess the situation and act accordingly. In the case of the Suncrusher, the act would be to jump out ASAP untill a viable solution and/or counter becomes availble (such as pitching it down a black hole.) An indedictor and it's Victory escorts are easy enough to replace, but a Eclipse or Soveriegn would be a grevious loss indeed.

Would this co-ordinated effort include a pre-emptive strike on Gamespy HQ to prevent such dumb questions?

Oh you don't want me in there... I have a nasty tendency to backstab allies just to watch the ensuing chaos, which is probably why I don't win to many multiplayer RTS games.

I thought the stormies were human recruits, mainly because that angsty jedi took the Sun Crusher and blew up the system with the Training center in it and his brother was taken to be a stormtrooper. Also the way they described the academy itself made it sound like it had been around for awhile. One thing they described was that they had banners of Imperial planets from the beginning of the Empire, though some of them turned to the New Republic. Also in the book where Luke faced off against his clone, it sounded like the manical villain (some sort of crazed jedi I think, or a clone of one) re-discovered the cloning technology from the clone wars.

I'm waiting for it... That and the new Alien Swarm mod coming out (hopefully) soon. I don't use X-fire do to the fact i can't play online games with my crappy satilite connection. However, I don't think it will be hard to convince the local LAN center to tack it on seeing that the guy who owns it is a Golden Eye fan. I want to see what the Havok physics engine will bring to the game. 50-24 today in CS:S with the TMP on Dust2. All human players going between 10-on-10 and 14-on-14

Yeah, HL2: Aftermath is due out in a month or two I believe. Then there was some news article a few weeks back talking about Valve will be releasing these episodic exspansions somewhat periodically.

PC: Bet on Solider Warhammer 40k: DoE Winter Assualt (or warfare or whatever) UT2007 Supreme Commander Rise of Nations: Rise of Legend EaW Maybe Phantasy Star Universe Quake 4 Serious Sam II Edit: Earth 2160 PS2: Final Fantasy XII We Love Katamari Maybe Shadow of the Collosus X-box: Burnout Revenge DoA: Ultimate Gamecube: Legend of Zelda; Twilight Princess SNES: Stunt FX GBA: Gunstar Super Heroes

I never understood the need for clans... Especially clans for a game that isn't out yet.

I'll hazard a guess of late November/early December when the holiday hype is in full swing.

Executor class SSD... Over-rate-ed *clap clap clapclap clap* Over-rate-ed As long as the A-wing and Death Star don't get the last minute axe I'll be happy. But I guess if we're dreamin'.... In game I want a Eclipse class SSD heading a battle group of 4 Soveriegn class SSDs, 7 Executor class SSDs (its still an overrated class), 75 ISD Mk.III, 14 Indedictor class SDs (you know, the gravity well ones), 100 Victory Mk.II SDs, 50 Lancer class frigates. All of this using a Death Star Mk.II as a jumping off point. If I could muster that force, I think I could die a happy gamer. edit: oh and I want the fleet's ships to have their full compement of TIE squadrons (Primary fighter being the Interceptor, but some Defender squadrons would be in also. Also upgraded TIE bombers would be availble), stromtroops, and ground assault assets.
