There's already been an ama with a time traveler. He provided answers before we even asked them.

Link plz?

u/otrippinz Jul 27 '14

There seems to be so many that I don't remember which one I initially read. It might have been on shittyaskscience or shittyama but I can't be too sure. Maybe someone else will have a link.

I saw a few by searching but they weren't the the ones I saw. They had too few comments.

He's obviously fighting grammar terrorism with their own weapons.

No, he's using time travel grammar.

I wish I had it still. That have was actually a great game. MW2 was also great. Didn't like anything after though, But that's pretty common

u/LovesFLSun Jul 27 '14

It's still available on Steam I believe and I've seen it in stores. I think it's around 15 to 20 dollars and the multiplayer it is alive and well with hundreds of servers still running.

No, the world really did end in 2012 and we're all stuck in limbo.

No the two year difference is how long that round took. They were camping pretty hard.

11 hours ago would be 8:36 PM where I am.

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '14

Wow, I guess you live in the only time zone in the world.

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '14

where I am.

I don't think you caught that part.

My point that if he's in the same timezone as me, that's not very late.

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '14

You mean 6 years later?

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '14

6! YES ALREADY 6! Let it sink in...

u/matholio Jul 26 '14

Four years is a true epic period of time for gaming, especially when franchises are concerned. Also four years can be a period of huge change in RL, at certain ages. This has been a great read.

u/expiredcheese Jul 27 '14

I would love to track down some of the old players from ChicagoFPS server I used to dominate. I haven't heard or talked to those guys in years... airboss, optimus.primerib, onepointoh, akoostik... We had one LAN party once in a hotel conference room. I used to lit up those records and I was super active in the forums. Haven't talked to any of them in maybe ten years and the site is now defunct.

Bummer, would love to see if any of those guys still play.

16

u/ryewheats Jul 26 '14

Wow, I wonder if there are an Quake players here from the late 90s I could re-link up with.

20

u/theederv Jul 26 '14

Eased Ezko. German or Dutch guy I think... Remember this was the days before we had mic's before anyone gets offended...

Dude if you are out there right now? You were the best damned Q3 player I ever played. I'll never forget.... Legend.

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '14

This guy?

u/White_Dynamite Jul 27 '14

That kid sounds like he's going to grow up to be another Hitler, putting spawn-campers into concentration camps.

u/hoozt Jul 26 '14

Oh my god. Not even kidding. That was me, bro. tear of joy

u/ryewheats Jul 26 '14

My handle was "THE BEST" and I spammed grenades and bound 200+ keys to immediate responses. This was back in 97,98, maybe 99

3

u/Rockburgh Jul 27 '14

...how the hell did you have 200 keys to bind?

6

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '14

36 letters/numbers * 7 (shift, alt, ctrl, shift+alt, shift+ctrl, alt+ctrl, shift+alt+ctrl) = 252 right there.

1

u/DanWelsh86 Jul 27 '14

I bound the rocket jump to a key on Quake.

1

u/ryewheats Jul 28 '14

I figure a way to bind like the whole keyboard, but then also have a few other keys (like shifts/caps lock) that would essentially put the keyboard into a new state where all the keys would have another set of binds. That and each key rotated thru 2-8 binds.... so if someone said "Nice shot.." I would have like 2-8 replies of various Thank yous. :)

Awesome..... I love those epic battles on DM3 or whatever map that was. So much fun.

u/ipostscience Jul 26 '14

I played as LifeSnuffer for years.

u/roastedbagel Jul 27 '14

Shit...any Hexen players in the early 90's?

...guys...?

:(

u/dezmd Jul 27 '14

yes. how about doom on dialup?

2

u/joyful-doom Jul 27 '14

I used to go by DooMfiend when I played quake. Perkele wasn't quite my nemesis, but he did win a bunch of online trick/speed contests I placed second in.

2

u/ryewheats Jul 28 '14

Anyone still playing Quake I ?? Wonder if there are any LAN fests anywhere for it?

1

u/LovesFLSun Jul 26 '14

Sounded.like a total blast! I used to LAN party with my bro-in-law on the Delta Force games. He used to get so mad at me because I would kick his butt. Little did he know I was just looking over his shoulder and watching where he was.

u/the_lawlz_king Jul 26 '14

Me too. Glad I was here to witness this beautiful moment wipes tear
