Blotter 11-01-2006, 03:17 AM Little blast from the past. GenCon 2005. As Yankee phrased it: Nigga give me back my camera. He gave his camera over to a bum to take our picture and the guy kept backing up. We were sure he was going to run off with the camera.

What ever happened to your publishing business, the Weasel thing?
Marketing, not publishing. http://www.gameweasels.com/
Wulfen 11-01-2006, 03:43 AM I have to laugh that some people still cling to the junior high concept that the world is suffering because nobody listened to their ideas :lol:
Great thread, good to see Marweas responding again, and a bit more light shone upon old issues of interest.
I don't think anyone said that the world was suffering due to this. Only a dead game series.
:|:ArcaneGel 11-01-2006, 04:48 AM I'll 2nd that, speaking as one not-quite-so-disgruntled Sierra hata :)
:shock:

Stits 11-01-2006, 06:01 AM Reading stuff like this seriously reaffirms my belief that without EVERYONE on a project having a passion for it that it's not worth doing. This goes for anything BTW. I'm at the point in my life now where I may if everything turns out okay I might just fund a small gaming company to work on games for mobile phones and perhaps a console with a good api tool set.
I don't know why but every-time I talk with someone going for their MBA they always ask me what I would do to be successful and I always give the same advice. Have passion for what you're in and target an audience that's not being given the attention and service they deserve.
With that said are FPS, RPG and RTS games being being given that attention and respect they deserve.....for the most part. MMP_ FPS gaming (I.E. 60+ ).....not really no.
zodie 11-01-2006, 06:18 AM atleast we have battlefield i guess
NoFiX 11-01-2006, 09:23 AM Working on Tribes was one of the best experiences in my career. Being able to delve as deeply as I did and work with folks like Thrax and Marweas, who absolutly loved the property and would have died for it was really rewarding. IG was also totally devoted to the game and tried to make it work.
Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
Okay, so, I'm lost...
Which Tribes game did you work on? Tribes or Tribes 2?
It's not IGA's fault...right. They were devoted to Tribes or..."the game", which is it?
Skyler 11-01-2006, 09:32 AM Marketing, not publishing. http://www.gameweasels.com/
Ah yes, thank you. I tried a bunch of stuff with weasles in it, but couldn't find it, and, I really just did want to ask Marweas how it's going. :)
Xcursion 11-01-2006, 09:32 AM :lol: It's in his profile.
Falhawk 11-01-2006, 09:33 AM The most annoying thing about T:V was how some of the devs would say the game was working as intended when in fact it had major problems (tourney mode etc).
yes, I'm looking at you menzo
Stilgar 11-01-2006, 09:36 AM If the patch had been released, I'd still be playing TV.
But what I remember grabbing me by the jugular was that Tribes was online only and team based. I had been playing Quake, Quake 2 - but here was something that from the get-go made a community.
I was so tired of death match.
Team Fortress could be the answer.
Got Haggis? 11-01-2006, 09:39 AM well ET:Quakewars has something a bit like skiing...only if you are using the jetpack-like icarus vehicle
TheSpirit 11-01-2006, 09:53 AM The most annoying thing about T:V was how some of the devs would say the game was working as intended when in fact it had major problems (tourney mode etc).
yes, I'm looking at you menzo
Who's to say that wasn't intended?

Thrax Panda 11-01-2006, 10:59 AM Remember when he was "Let go?"
Thrax, douchebag he was, never elaborated on it. Only bitched at people for asking too many questions.Piss off and stop asking so many questions.
ChaoStar 11-01-2006, 11:01 AM :lol:
But seriously this thread is depressing.
Colosus 11-01-2006, 11:02 AM Piss off and stop asking so many questions.
haha 1 more person and we've got a party on our hands.
Falhawk 11-01-2006, 11:04 AM I've got a party in my pants
Piss off and stop asking so many questions.
