Some of you may have heard about this hidden amoungst yuahui's inane ramblings. I thought I'd take a peek at it. Here's the "best" of my rummage.

http://www.kieranmillar.com/membermonth.png
Yuahui, Basti@n, and pieman are mods
Yaoi Naruto fanfic (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Team17/index.php?showtopic=195), which includes classic lines such as: "He continued to sniff the pillow. Nearly the whole pillow was covered in a salty smell, except the middle."
Basti@n's idea of comedy (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Team17/index.php?showtopic=147)
HackerMan displays his wonderful posting skills (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Team17/index.php?showtopic=135), topped off by the last post demonstrating Basti@n's worldwide knowledge, mistaking the french flag for the american one.
My seizure avatar fad gets mentioned (post 4) (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Team17/index.php?showtopic=130)
Andrew gets his comics posted for him (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Team17/index.php?showtopic=144)

Let's not spam that forum or in any way try to intefere, it'll be funnier to just sit back and watch.

I know I said this with unhappy end too but I feel it needs reiteration:

This is exactly why the old members are big jerks about enforcing rules and even make fun of people. There is no aspect about the forum that doesn't make my brain wince.

Grif, here is a smart yet a stupid troll. most trolls couldn't be so constructive, but grif was. however, this quote is still idiotic. no one owns the internet, but the admins, mods or whatever. he's basicly proving that he is the next hitler in line and hitler put an end to his life because he couldn't "shape up" to realise the wrong stuff he had done. Trolls like grif can't face the fact that without polite and kind people, they'd be nothing. all trolls are the same.... they're best slain (not sure if I spelled that right)
This is my favorite part.

He's smart, except he's stupid. no one owns the internet except the people that do. Godwins Law.

I'm guessing that I'd have to register to see avatars, but I'm not going to do that anytime soon.

All the info transfered, to prevent more spam in the other thread (totally irrelevant of business!)

OK HaK I will need you to PM me the following info (real):

First Name
Last Name
House Address
City
State
ZIP code
Home telephone
Mobile telephone (optional)
Email address
Desired PayPal Account Password
Confirm Password (necessary, just in case you typed wrongly)
City of birth (Security Question 1)
Mother's maiden name (name before marriage) (Security Question 2)

Or else, you can fill the details yourself, but if you dont want then I can settle everything for you - website (I prefer a forum), PayPal transaction system (it's easy!) and everything else.

I wouldn't trust even YOU guys with that much of my personal information.
...and HaK's telling this to Yauhui.
Oh, but it gets better.

ok... So once you got all of it sorted out, please PM me your bank routing number and account number...
I will definatly do that. Im just too busy at work at the moment, so i might only be able to get to my bank, either this weekend, or early next week. (The bank is very far from where i stay )

Shadowmoon walks behind him, looking around curiously for any weird creatures, holding his flaming katana and his knife.

Shadowmoon walks on, with Basti@n trailing behind him.

I can't beleive I have to ban you. you were a good friend.... it just doesn't make any sense to why you posted all of this uncensored foul words and insults.

I hope you will all uderstand how stupid this is. and to think it all started with a comment on dream17.

I will leave this open for any "I'm sorry" posts, but the second someone goes back to insults... I'll lock this thing! http://209.85.48.12/11754/195/emo/cantspeak.gif

These words don't go together.

Isometric is fantastic! Take RPGs! All the old isometric ones were generally better (and hell, _prettier_) than crappy 3D for the sake of 3D (although Oblivion and Skyrim are exceptions to the "prettier").

Lex
1 Mar 2011, 10:31
My point was that isometric is not a good method for displaying a 2D environment. I wasn't implying 3D. Isometric chess, for example, is awful. Civilization 2 used an isometric perspective for no reason at all, and it was weird. Civ 2 is a great game, but it would have been better if it just stuck with the normal top-down grid style, in my opinion. This game (Worms Evolved) should not be isometric, in my opinion.

If isometric means impossible 3D angle with no depth of field for the sake of easy presentation, then the game is already isometric and it's fine. If isometric means rotating the board 45 degrees and squishing it by 50%, then requiring the use of taller game piece sprites, that's a bad idea for a 2D gridded game.

To respond to you regarding isometric (in the first definition presented above) as a superior way to present a 3D RPG or strategy game ("Heroes Of Might And Magic", "Transport Tycoon", "Baldur's Gate", "Diablo", and "Starcraft" come to mind), I completely agree.

bonz
1 Mar 2011, 11:00
You just need a steeper angle, making it nearly a top down view, but just enough to see the sides of a 3D polygonal model.

Something like the oblique view on the left (135°/135°/90°), or maybe even more:

Also, I wish I didn't have to append "in my opinion" to everything. It really should always just be implied.

Contrary to popular belief, I'm actually a fun-loving person who already knows that everyone else knows what's fun, so the only things I talk about are the things worth talking about; things I'm unsure whether people have thought through as much, like the negative aspects of things. This means I wouldn't post "Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier, which I'm playing right now, is really fun!" for the sake of posting it. I'll let others discover things like that for themselves. Instead, I'll post, "Wow, the character dialog and story in Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier is excessively long. I'll read it, but it's so convoluted and farfetched that it doesn't seem to evoke much emotional response considering how many brain cycles it takes just to understand what's going on. Reading through it is tedious." The implied part in that would be, "but I'll read through it anyway because it's such an awesome game otherwise and I have to know what's going on in order to play it."

I would post the negative part instead of the positive part because the negative part is actually interesting, whereas the positive part is often just interpreted as, "I am having fun! Yay! I am happy. I like this [media], so you should like it too, and if you don't, I don't like you!" which isn't true for me. I can like people without liking what they like! A great example of this is KRD. We have plenty of disagreements, but he's still one of my favorite people in the whole wide world.

This game (Worms Evolved) should not be isometric, in my opinion.
Funnily enough, one of my original long term goals for Worms Evolved was to code it into a standalone game that was isometric (Disgaea was the main inspiration for me designing it in the first place), but that's mainly because the original design had all of the grid squares have height, rather than a flat board with "land health".

Ultimately, after removing any notion of height to make it easier to play over a forum, I found that I just prefer it in its simplified state. There's no longer any good reason to make it isometric.

Speaking of Worms Evolved, I've got the urge to start it up again, but there's no way in hell I'd do it if I had to calculate everything and update the images manually again. I may look into writing myself a program in Game Maker that does it all for me and spits out images (Game Maker is great for that sort of thing). There's just something about playing it over a forum and all the banter surrounding it that makes it all the more awesome, even if it is a bit unwieldy to play this way.
