Announcing...Project Relay Modification for HL-2

but i like THEEESE ONES!!!! Here's a suggestion, make there be driveable vehicles

one for each team.

I kinda like your idea but you dont seem to have many members to make a mod!

Your site isnt all finished yet so thats a bit of a downer

and well i bet ?10 that this mod will not be finished as people will just give up and leave

all mods fail to be honest except those who are dedicated to it and real good mods take years which is why hl1 mods are still being released as they started their mods ages before hl2 came out and its not like there going to just stop and make a new mod for hl2 :wink:

Get my point?

All i can say is goodluck and may fate be with you :wink: !

Also why im at it i noticed half your site says coming soon and before showing off a mod you should have lots of content to amaze the audience with :wink:

nightshift for example has very good looking screenshots and has had major requests from people to join and there site has lots of pictures and info

i look at your site and i see a failed mod that hasnt been fully thought out!

To earn the crowd respect you have to show them whatyour TEAM is capable of :smile:

there will be vehicles, in objective maps anyway,
and no the site is not finished because its been a constant pain in teh backside cuz the server keeps going down every now and then.

So I have been busy trying to sort it out, and have not had to time to get everything done. And then there was christmas gah.

Roger that commander

you know MCOM is the name of the options menu in SSX3 do you? :biggrin:

but that ctf souded quite good, but if it was all original etc. like you guys claim it to be, why name all the examples, like weapons like in cs etc. , that does make it seem like you stole a load of ideas and cramped em together in your own 'mod'

[EDIT]

MCOM is a device in SSX3 that has radio and some options menu tyoe stuff, it's a hand help computer you could say :biggrin: , so you might want to change that name

Well our MCOM aint that, and i have never played ssx3 so i would not of known that thankyou for telling me about that anyway.

And i am not saying we made up the whole thing ourself, obviously we have got ideas from other games, beacuse they inspire us, you look at 99% of the new mods they all copy other things in some way or another, and i am thankful, for the posts.

The first post was not put very well, as loki is a fairly new to the team, and i told him to go advertise for a coder and a modeller, and his post was not worded correctly, and it did sound a lot like tfc, agreed. And i do not mean to offend anyone in any way in this topic. I am just trying to create and enjoyable mod, that has good gameplay values.

Bah, I think the mod sounds like a lot of fun. Heed the sparse positive
comments from this topic and don't put too much though into hateful
criticism. Just work on the rough ideas and get a beta release out soon!

Can't wait for a more tactical gameplay experience..

Thanks there mate,

We will try our best to get a beta out asap, i'll let you know as soon as thats available, You'll be first to know.

Go get bent. There's no hateful criticism in this thread. These are questions and comments that will inevitably be encountered by any mod and they need to be answered if a majority of people are going to be interested in it. Every mod under the sun is met with skepticism, it's the nature of the community, especially after having seen so many amateur mods come and go.

Loki, you can't expect people to not criticize your mod if you ask them to join it. If they're unfairly criticizing it in your opinion, that simply means they don't want to join it as it is now, which simply means to change your ideas or find other people to develop it.

I find it strange that your webpage says your maps are 30% done and yet you have no screenshots of any of them as well.

indeed, where would michael jordan be if his coach had not doubted him, they say that is what made want to become the best! So, actually, you guys should THANK all these guys for telling you it's gonna die and it sucks and that stuff. Cause the more they doubt, the more you'll be driven to be like "UH! i told you so, arseholes!"

IF you read the thing about down time on the site, in my comments above, then you would realise that we have had problems with the hosting, and we have been trying to sort that before putting everything on the site.

And that progress is towards our first alpha release, that shall be commented on the site very soon, don't worry my friend.

And for the person earlier, if you would like to join our mailing list, just pop over to http://projectrelay.hl2files.com/mail/
Enter your emails and you will be added.

<DIV class=quotetext>And by the way Cassius, I didnt refer to you by name in that post, so perhaps you shouldnt assume as much.

Really? I think you referred to me (and others) by a few names, actually.

<DIV class=quotetext>Personally, we dont really care if you think that our mod is unoriginal. Hitler thought that jews were evil and mean, look where that got him.</DIV></DIV>

Wow, that's kind of a stretching comparison. You type like you're new to the English language, maybe you're not familiar with the weight of making such a reference.

But then again ignorance is bliss.

It is not designed for naysayers and twits to come in here and criticize it.

</DIV></DIV>
Yes, because anybody who makes a single valid point about the information you've presented about your mod (and by the way, you still haven't said a single thing that redeems it) is obviously a naysayer and a twit because they don't know "TEH REAL TRUTH ABOUT OUR AWESOME GPS SYSTEM"

Well im going to have to agree, thanks alot members on this forum, your 'constructive' criticism will not go unremembered...

What, when "TFC PRJCT RELY LOL" is the biggest name in the modding community we'll be sore? Or is that simply the more common "IM GUNNA HAX UR SIET" statement?

Bingo. Until the post you're reading right now, nobody has really posted anything that has insulted you the way you've freely insulted us.

<DIV class=quote>

<DIV class=quotetext>
If you want to prove that you arent ignorant and narrow minded, then kindly STOP posting negative things on the mod,

</DIV></DIV>
If you want to prove that you aren't a f**kwit, stop posting about your mod. Stop developing your mod. I've been part of mods on-and-off for what, four or five years? and I know that making any mod, let alone one with a lackluster idea behind it, requires a team leader of particular maturity, level-headedness, and organizational skills to make it even get off the ground. You and neptar have shown yourselves to be complete morons. You take criticism like children. You spend five pages on an Internet forum where you came to advertise defending a poorly presented and generic idea for a mod that doesn't even have a single screenshot to show for itself. Do you expect PROJECCT RELAY!!!111 to get finished? Do you expect it to get played? Do you honestly expect to go to another forum advertising a mod that is so far a few pages of text and a handful of team members with nothing to show and get a slew of applications?

Obviously, other forum members will take to being nice to you in the spirit that "regulars are meeean!" I won't stop them. I posted the "We have to stop" thread because nobody in the community was showing any respect, and that had to stop. You're not showing us any respect, and that has to stop.

If either of you wish to continue this conversation, PM me. This topic, as you say, is about recruiting for your mod.

See the funny thing about guys like you is, you derive personal
satisfaction from writing ridiculously long posts to try and prove
your right. Well quite honestly, I couldnt care less about that load of
trash you just decided to type out. You just wasted time better spent
on learning how to be a person, not an overweight loser who sits on his
computer and acts like a bad ass. We have never actually spoken 'l33t'
or 'n00b', so wherever the hell Project Relay!!!111 comes from, god
knows. Neptar may have made the typo 'teh', but he does type fast, and
typos are an unfortunate result of typing quickly. Rather than sink to
your very, very, pathetic level, im going to stop typing now, but
hopefully you get the message through : We dont care what you think
about us or our mod.

By the way, you want respect? EARN IT. You dont earn respect by being
the 7th member to register, or for having been around a long time. You
earn it by showing your not a complete retard. If you say were morons,
you have absolutely no idea what were really like. I see you to be a
flaming idiot with about as much intelligence as a demented
giraffe.

Also, there is no such thing as a f**kwit. But if there was, im sure you could use it as a title.

I find it incredibly funny that you cant read, Hugh. I didnt ask him to
earn my respect. I only said that if he wanted to get some from me, he
has to show some too. And learn the definition of irony and ironic,
please.

Cassius, I understand very well the weight of making such a statement.
Maybe im just an insensitive cold b*****d, but Hitler is dead. The jews
he killed are all dead too. Theres nothing we can do about it, if you
cant handle such 'mature' topics, you should go back to playing
Lemmings, kid.

i'd just like to say i aint even mentioned that for ages, anyway.....

For anyone who cares, the screenshots of the map should be up within the next week. Once we have our hosting issues sorted.

Loki, I find it incredibly ironic that you come here asking us to earn YOUR respect.

Edit: Well then Loki, I find it incredibly idiotic that you expect us to want to earn your respect when you come to our forums and start yelling at us because we don't want to join your mod. The rational person would have left long before now.

Well I find it rather idiotic of you that you cannot distinguish
language used on the internet. It is common knowledge that shouting is
generally something like this..

WTF OMG N00B!!!111!!

I cant recall posting that, ever.

I was merely defending the mod against pointless accusations it will be
like TFC. Were already getting people from other places, it matters
very little to me if people on this forum join or not. You obviously
have problems understanding emotions over the internet. My deepest
sympathies that you are too stupid to possess that skill. I have never
actually been angered by anything here and am quite rational, quite
sane. You should probably learn those definitions too before you end up
looking mentally challenged again.

As much as I hate writing this post and continuing this idiotic topic, you need to distinguish that just because shouting is "generally something like this" doesn't necessitate that it always is. And I'm glad that you think you're rational and sane since nobody else here does.

Listen to this man.
Also, read my post. If you sincerely want to piss on me more, use private messages. Because I enjoy being a part of this community, I enjoy seeing it kept respectful, not stepped on by newcomers. Also, the actual text of my message wasn't very long - shorter than most of your posts, in fact. It only looked long because of the quotes; but maybe you can't handle such "mature topics", "kid".

Somebody lock this topic.

The ironing....what is that, a sequel to The Shining?.

Seriously, I know what your thinking, but that post wasnt designed to
prove anything. Simply a statement that Cassius has the intimidation
and influential skills of an enflamed goat.

If I was to take a test right now I believe I would be found perfectly
sane, and as none of you here are certified psychiatrists, I sincerely
doubt you can say any different. Get a life, seriously, arguing over
the internet is futile and a waste of time, I take no more pleasure in
replying to your stupid little posts than you do in replying to my own.

Edit : Cassius, you still obviously spent more time than nessicary
finding each post to quote, which is really quite pointless in an
argument that can continue to all eternity until one of us dies first.
I have no further wish to continue this 'flame war' if you could even
call it that, but I will if you continue, regardless if it gets me
banned off these forums.

Listen to yourself.
Your man neptar has been kind enough to PM me with personal complaints. Do the same. While we're on the topic of irony, it is quite ironic that you're the first person to pull out the "LOL ARGUING ON INTERNET FORUMS IS STUPID!!!1" approach and at the same time refuse to make this a private conversation.

I wouldn't want you to get banned. I don't really dislike the mod, and I don't take it upon myself to be nasty to mods I dislike; I dislike the way you came here demanding we respect you and not point out a single fault of your mod.

Once again, I'll highlight what you said, and I agree with this very much: "By the way, you want respect? EARN IT."

*then the little man that was squeaking about irony ended his LONG post that was intended to prove him right. (see beginning of his long post above)
[PostScript] there Is such a thing as a f**kwit... there's f**ktards too. and Assclowns, just FYI.

I said I took no pleasure in replying to these posts. I really dont. If
you dont want this to go any further, then it stops right here with
this post.

By the way Nickelplate, did you simply neglect to read the post I made
where I personally reinforced that post, that it was not designed to
prove me right?. You should probably go back and do that before
posting. And I cant find assclown, f**ktard, f**kwit or anything of the
sort in the dictionary.

Yes. I will right now. :smile:

i had an dream (litterally) of one where u were an animal. you could be a bird or a dog or a cat or a squirrel and they all had different abilites & objectives. And each species objectives would conflict with eachother to create a web of troubles. species would work together. but didnt have to and could pursue just killing things or having fun. :smile: this was only a dream i had last night but it was fun ( in the dream) btw it took place in the sim ant backyard for snes

EDIT: pm me if you find this interesting = D any downsides/upsides would be appreciated

EDIT:EDIT:Also Pm'ing is a usefull tool so that people don't spam a post because one man decides he has been publicly humiliated after every positively critisized comment. No offense it just makes it a little more private and a litte more managable :wink: good luck anyways

Please tell me that all the Sudafed I
took has made me hallucinate this entire thread.

Nope, sorry. I do think it's rather humorous though.

nah but i like my idea ;P i do agree (no offense) but it is similar to tfc. you might have gotten a subconcious inspiration from the s&i sabatoge & tfc

99% of all mods never get released!

One valid point (not sure if anyone else has said it)- You seem to have the attitude that you don't care what we think. This is THE most stupid mistake ever, if you don't care what we think then your mod will fail. We are the public, we are who you need to impress to play your game. ID software don't make s**t games 'cus they think about what people want from a game. s**t games are ones that don't think about what people want.

btw my mod is cont* on another post out of convience because it is not really so much a mod as more a fun idea = P

You cant exactly blame us for not listening to you when you come out
with things like that. We do listen, we just dont care what you think
in regards to our mod never being released.

okay, here's the synopsis:

for everyone else: Loki is making a mod, it doesn't matter what anyone else says. It'll still BE a mod whether it's released or not. AND whether or not it's a gOOD mod or a COPY of existing mods, It's still okay with HIM so, i guess we should leave him alone.

For loki: Stop posting. just shut the f**k up and ppl will stop posting these insult to your mod. The only reason ppl are still POSTING s**t is because you keep posting back. f**ktard, f**kwit, and assclown are actually a thing called compound words in the english language we have the ability to put two ore more words together and form a new, single word. Since our language is considered of the west germanic root (being of the Anglo-saxon phylum) and having many qualities the same as the west germanic root language, we have the same abilities to form these compound words as other languages such as modern german which has words like Meerwasserentsalzungsanlageninstandhaltungstechniker surely if they can accept words like these, surely you can accept these little two-parters! PM me if you feel the need to respond to this. let's not continue this any further.

head spins

Gwil, just sit back, laugh, and enjoy the ride!

9 damned pages, and for what? a new member wants to make a mod. new/original/out right stolen concept, what freakin difference does it make.

you know what i read in 9 pages? an ungrateful new member, whom cannot take the good, with the bad, when it comes to out right cynicism.

the pit has been here for years now, seen just about every original concept known for creating a mod, and what do we get in return for our honesty? contempt, scorn or just plain outright rude retorts.

9 pages guys? my honest opinion? you are granting them more time than they will probably invest in themselves. let them fail, or succeed, but do not elevate their petty mod idea into something more than it is. 9 pages makes it seem important. it is not.

the thread ended when the first one cried uncle (delete this thread i think it was) at that point, they lost any chance for some modicum of respect from the more knowledged amongst us.

/ 2 cents

9 pages of bitching is OTT, look at the warning from the past on the
first page! I thought this mod had some hope, there are no close
to future wargames out there, theyre all ww2 or cold war, none are just
far enough in front to give it flair and interesting results.

I was going to say before the 9 pages of bitching, that vehicles would be an awesome inclusion to this mod.

This topic was dead. Why did you feel the need to ressurect it.
