So I take it you got it working good then :)
the specialist - fritoman - 08-22-2003
yeah gwar, It installed in the wrong place or probly I installed in in the wrong place, but anyhow netniv hooked on to my computer and figured it out for me, and a lot of other stuff that was screwed up on my computer. anyway if you liked the matrix "the movie" you will love this game. :thumb::thumb::thumb:

I was in control... I became FRITOMAN... and I had to get it working so I could have someone to aim after whilst learning the moves in TS:) He kicked my ass with just the katana and kung fu for ages :/

This is like a cross between DM and Ricochet, in this game, you have the potential to be very flexible in combat, thus improving yourself in-game through practicing, which I like in an FPS. This is the very first DM-style game I actually like, not only because I'm a huge Matrix fan, but because of the flexibility and hardcore action packed fun:P
Reason I never liked any other DM-style game is because of the crapass gameplay, I can't stand running around all day, with nothing but a gun, the strafe buttons, and jump, how the hell do you become a real "skilled" DM player when that's all you're limited to? Hell, I'm on my third day playing this mod, and I'm actually pretty good already, the ONLY flaw I see so far is the overpowered Barreta M8, it's like the pre-nerf AWP in CS, as soon as they fix that, I'd say this is the best HL mod since Ricochet.

I have problem with my TS... Everytime i try and join a server it gets to the "initializing and Downloading" step and then exits the game to my desktop.. anyone know why?
the specialist - kermit - 09-05-2003
i don't know. i downloaded TS a couple days ago and it's pretty good...but i find that stupid "slow-down" power-up a bit lame at times. right when i'm ready to get a good shot off, everything starts going in slo-mo...it's like lag on puprose or something. it's a cool idea...but it can get annoying.
the specialist - _Acid_Head_ - 09-05-2003
I love the power-up, except I think they should make it so everybody within a visual segment is affected. There have been some rare occasions when I get shot by some guy with a rifle 100 feet away, because he isn't in slow motion and I am. I agree it gets kind of annoying when you're ready to make an attack, and some guy that heard you uses the power up and kicks your ass with a katana, you simply have to be ready for such an attack at all times.

Secondly, with regards to Slow-Mo, etc... Once you become accustomed to them, even when they occur you can dodge around, and sometimes beat the guy who tried to use it against you... I actually prefer Slow Pause to Slow Motion (only thing is that Slow Pause only comes in 3 second not 5 second packages).

woo got the specialists working..woo i'm terrible but hey at least it's working now
the specialist - Guest - 09-09-2003
I'm really bad.. I keep forgetting to get any weapons and just run around with my hands and feet... (now if only that was a move you could do... walk about the game on your hands!)
the specialist - Power and Glory - 09-09-2003
I did that alot when I first started playing. I would forget to load the new config and just have my hands. I'm so used to just picking weapons and starting I forgot that extra step.
the specialist - Guest - 09-09-2003
Aye... the only difference is ... I'm actually worse if I pick up weapons :/
the specialist - FreeFall - 09-09-2003
I don't forget, but I like to go kung-fu...
I'm trying to learn all those crazy moves.. like running along the wall, I dunno how i did that but it happened once..
the specialist - Guest - 09-09-2003
Well, I can flip into a slide.. I can flip onto my feet (even sideways)... I can backflip, superjumpflip, diveroll, superjumproll,superjumpkick.
the specialist - FreeFall - 09-09-2003
Is super jump that crouch and jump dealy??
the specialist - fritoman - 09-09-2003
yes

Click jump twice in whatever direction to do a special flip in that direction, click jump twice with a katana on to kick your opponent (only works if you're in close range), this also disarms your opponent. Q on wall to do a backflip on it, you can do this from wall to wall if there's a pillar nearby, or if you're at a corner. Jump forward + kick to do a flying kick, kick + direction will give you a different kick for each direction. It's also pretty cool how much damage you can do with the kung fu power-up, and how you can block each other if you're in a katana fight (me and my friends set up a dojo server daily just for ninja fights).
the specialist - Guest - 09-10-2003
I should come play with you and get anihalated...
the specialist - Quickening - 09-10-2003
Just message me on the weekends I'll be there....:D
the specialist - Guest - 09-10-2003
I usually hear you cry off with threats of homework!:)
the specialist - kermit - 09-10-2003
does anyone use the full-size shotguns (mossberg, spas12, etc...) i can't get good w/ them...:(. the sawed-off is cool though...light and deadly. usually, i use akimbo five-sevens, raging bull and knife. or my other favorite config is socom mk23, sawed-off shotgun and katana.
how do u pick up weapons though? sometimes, some ass-clown disarms me and i need to pick up a gun.
the specialist - Guest - 09-10-2003
To pick up, use that utterly shamelessly banned key of Ricochet... the USE key..:) As far as I'm concerned, shotguns are for wimps... they are instant kills, but easier to get used to than single shot guns like Raging Bull.
Having said that... the number of people who use the Raging Bull and get single shot kills narks me off too...
It takes some skills to use either, but it's far too easy... I prefer Katana / Kung Fu because you have to get in close, not kill your oponent from a million miles away!
the specialist - _Acid_Head_ - 09-10-2003
The one gun that currently pisses me off is the mp5, whoever uses this gun is a stat ######, no recoil, 2 bullets to kill (short range or far), it puts the mac-10 to shame. Shotguns are really fun, I use the spas whenever I get bored of kung fu, you just have to get used to pressing fire to pump each shot.
the specialist - Guest - 09-10-2003
If you change the fire rate to semi auto you don't even have to do that... but you can run out... that's the only difference...
the specialist - Quickening - 09-11-2003
For a small map like bein inside and everything...I love my double mini uzis and golden colts
I also use the MAC10..usually just to piss people off
Or I use the MPK5 its a good gun
I never kung fu..if a guy knocks my gun away..most ppl start kung fu fighting..haha not me I run to my gun pick it back up and kill his ass

I just d/l TS and played for a bit, cool game and I have the matrix, this looks like it could be better,but i'm not sure why my aim is not looking up or down, I have it set the same in hl,tf,and rico but it's not working the same?
the specialist - Guest - 09-11-2003
For some reason the defaults have the mouse inverted, so if you look down, you look up, etc. Change it within the configuration section.
the specialist - jabbahunt - 09-11-2003
It's not looking up or down either way
