People are complaining about this? For god's sake... Every piece of content in the past few months has been for level 50s, and you complain when there's finally content exclusively for lowbies? Pitiful. I can't get the gloves/hands easily,...

I said congratulations ages ago, but I'll say it again so I don't look like a meanie. Congratulations! *Waits patiently for the podcast.*

Not his colony, just its rulers. They probably fulfill exactly the same function as Zion's Council, but Rare/Chadders called them Oligarchs to avoid any confusion. Info about oligarchies, the most oddly named form of government I've ever h...

Too bizarre for words.

Combo breaker. Believe it. Ah hell... >_> Vinia wrote: ChloeAnn wrote: LucifersChosen wrote: Phluff wrote: It's been too long! I want to see more of your fantastic work! <3

Gone but not forgotten. We have to campaign to get these back in a finished format. Don't be put off by what Rarebit's said so far; he's just plain wrong.

I can't draw any conclusions, but I hope that when the big reveal happens and we discover there really is a free human civilisation outside the petty Cycle and the war between Zion and Zero-One that this civilisation won't be massive, and...

Hey man, good thinking. I forgot about that sketch. Agents would have no business in the Zero-One construct, and couldn't exist in the real Zero-One, so that image never made much sense. So then, people in the mysterious colony still wear...

The Oligarchs, eh? So the intruders are definitely from some sort of community, and probably quite a large one to warrant its own government. Good to see a further reminder that the Machines don't trust the Cypherites any further than they...

If this is anything like the last Cave Rave , I'll try my best to be there! I guess you joined mere months too late for that one, Vinia.

I thought I've heard at least two of the Niobe tracks in the Commando Hallways, not just one. I could be wrong, though, and I'm not at home to check.

There's one that isn't used? I thought the only one left was the Niobe one you mentioned. What's the track name? But yeah, the current Datamine track is getting on my nerves. I can't figure out of it's Westview or the music that plays in E...

H'mm? Isn't there already an enhanced level 50 sniper rifle? I'm sure I've been using one. Couldn't say which type, though.

We have as much proof of him being freeborn as we have of anything else. Agent Gray said he was freeborn, so we just have to take that as read for now. And it fits perfectly with (( Mystery Man (men?) in the cinematics and )) the mysteriou...

I was about to protest this idea, then I realised you were talking about crits, not their archived versions. Ain't a bad idea, I suppose. You're working for your org and it wouldn't help org hoppers because of how infrequently crits come a...

Well, it's possible that it did get bugged at some point, though I recall 9mmfu denying it. Maybe it's time to press him on the issue.

Rarebit wrote: Dunno. How good are you at hovercraft battles? Whuur-, what?! I have no idea what to make of that question. I only wish work didn't stop me from staying up late enough to get involved in them again.

Quite possibly. Oh, and to those who don't have max rep, how many missions do you generally run? I got my last rep point while I was still trying to reach level 50 (I think), so I was doing a lot of missions. If you're just doing the criti...

Max rep represent! *Throws his fist in the air dramatically.* Eh, that is to say, I have maximum reputation with the Machines. I know it can be tough to get max rep, but it's more a case of the people not getting it for years being unlucky...

Er, don't you pay attention to the news? These aren't rumours. The cinematics are gone . No more cinematics. The fact that there is a link to Cinematic 10.1 is a bug . The cinematics are gone due to budget reasons however, not because Chad...

There's nothing to watch. What you see in-game is just an image that sets the tone for the chapter. No more official movies, no more in-game movies.

Exactly. I love it! I really, really hope these get implemented properly.

I'm not sure what to make of the Oracle's death, however temporary it may be... We really can't tell going on past experience. Suffice to say that we need Halborne out of here as soon as possible, and hopefully the Machines won't let him h...

Why do you keep posting them in red? Oh, and I was wrong about being unable to load two. They're loaded, but they're passive abilities which just buff. Only they don't appear in the buff bar like Glimmer of the Source.

If they get the rep requirements working you won't need to worry about getting stunned all the time. There aren't many Machinists with maximum reputation. No, not many. Mwuah-ahahahahahah! Anyway, yeah, they seem to sort of work. I can loa...

They what? *Jacks back in.*

Nah, we won't be seeing these. They look a lot like HCFrog's concept for org ability trees, so work on them almost undoubtedly ceased when he left. And this is something Rarebit won't be able to do by himself: it's one thing to move from m...

Eh-heheheh, that last screenshot is class. Looks like the end of a cheesy 80s cartoon. 'Yeah! ^_^'

Oops, sorry! Only just noticed this. I wasn't expecting to see any more replies to the thread. Good idea, and it should be easy enough to do. There's just the small matter of me getting around to adding the feature. So, eh, don't expect it...

Sure. It won't achieve more than a little confusion, but it'd be funny to watch for a bit.

To take command of the faction and its resources... To watch every single member leave within the day only to regroup under a different name... Man, that's gotta be worth at least $40 million.

Yes, it really does.

You know, I never actually got around to buying the DVD. Is it of decent quality or should I just stick with my old .avi file? Edit: And I made the 'Bit' joke first, blast it.
