Return to Castle Wolfenstein Ships

Posted by chrisd on from the actung!-mien-lieber! dept.

Screaming Lunatic writes "Woohoo, Return to Castle Wolfenstein has finally shipped. Check this story out at Yahoo. You should be able to buy it at the regular gaming shops. I highly recommend buying it rather than hacking it, as noted in Graeme Devines .plan file." CD: I am seriously flashing back to the Apple II game with a similar name, hope this doesn't suck like daikatana.

    Before I'm halfway through? Hah! Not the way I play! Man, you've never seen moves like these- super-backspin-kicking-slash-shoot attacks! Bang ka-POW! Of course, with my luck, the first patch will screw with all the timing settings and my descending laser bullet of CERTAINDEATH will miss horribly, thus deciding my fate before I've even had a chance to say goodbye to my loved ones.

    Damn, I love FPS.

    Remember to rename the exe file to 'quake.exe' to squeeze out a better frame rate!

    Not compared to Team Arena. That was a cheap hack that they sold just to rake in a bit more. Wolf3d is the same engine and very little else. And it actually has a single-player element, one that doesn't involve out-railing bots. (God, their AI is crap.)

    Q3:TA was a few new runes, some new models, and some new maps. Nothing amazing either. A day or so picking over planetquake for 3rd-party levels will get you the same quality. Ca-ching.

    Christ, Romero, still bitter?

    From Graemes plan:

    Many so-called cdkey generators are in fact virus attacks that steal your own good cdkey, or worse, corrupt your files


    Obviously, Graeme thinks the people who read his .plan are idiots.

    Picture me sitting here with my brand spanking new downloaded copy of RTCW. I run a keygen.

    Oh no! That evil virus attack just sent my valid Wolf key to some insideous pirate! Except it didn't.

    PIRATES USING KEYGENS DON'T HAVE VALID KEYS.

    He used this same stupid assed scare tactic when Q3A came out. It was stupid then, and stupid now. But at least he added the evil terrifying file corrupting ability bit.

    I'm tempted to just download the game and play through the singleplayer game for the heck of it.
