    I bought HL when it came out, played the SP a bit and put it down. It didn't really do much for me. Played CS for about a week, hated it. Same with DoD. NS saved my HL cd from the trash. Until I played NS, I always counted HL as a waste of money.

    Propably I would play TFC, maybe even a few rounds (OMGZ H4X AK NUBCAEK) CS every now and then.

    I played DoD before NS, but the new Versions stink, played Poke646, CS on LANs, SvenCoop, Gunman, but never played the HL Singleplayer.

    Without HL I would play DAoC, I think, or Planetside. Maybe UT2k4.

    DOD, Specialists and probably warcraft 3.

    Vampire Slayer. I was a "Vampire Slayer" before NS, and I am still playing it on and off, although I play NS way more... But at the moment I'm playing Harvest Moon: AWL.

    I personally can't stand any other HL mod other than NS right now. I used to be in CAL-o for CS back in the day... but the the game got real lame to me.

    Since then... I've been playing NS. Other than that, I play ma' gamecube and PS2 alot (definitely go buy XIII for either console, kick-arse game). Oh. And SimCity 4 rocks <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Not much of a hardcore gamer with anything anymore. Ns is really all that I play, and I suppose it's because I have a server I play on all the time, and know most of the people there. That's really why I play... 'cuz it's fun and nice to get away from things all the time.

    i.e.

    Nope, i wouldnt play HL without NS. As for other games well... Probably fulltime UT2k4
  • AltalAltal Join Date: 2003-06-27 Member: 17740Members
    Vampire Slayer... I used to be a really hardcore fan of VS, but when I switched to steam and found how buggy it is on steam I slowly changed loyalties.

    Hmmmm... if it hadn't been for NS, I'd be back in the AHL community fulltime.

    Oh wait, I am! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    *Curses ATi for not giving ONE minutes support to allowing me to play NS*
  • CheeseCheese Lork on the Clorf Join Date: 2003-12-15 Member: 24396Members, Constellation
    Hmm I tried lots of Mods till i settled down with NS...so I guess i would keep changing my mods once a week/month if NS wouldn´t be there.

    (I play DoD sometimes...)
  • WirheWirhe Join Date: 2003-06-22 Member: 17610Members
    I would play Half-Life occasionally, the single-player, but the other mods seem like rubbish to me (even though CS was fun for a while). If NS didn't steal all my "online-time", Diablo2 probably would -although I have beaten it several times already, and the online players aren't from the "brightest" sort. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Frankly, Diablo 2 online playing seems to be playing single-player game with *some* other player *somewhere* in the map.

    Hmm i play DoD i guess but NS is what i have Hl for at the end of the day. i occasionally play ricochet tfc and cs s&i other than that i play tribes 2 and americas army.. whats this half life rally sound interesting
  • HybridclawHybridclaw Join Date: 2003-11-03 Member: 22271Members
    counter-strike and some other games....
    but, CS would be that game that I would play the most

    I bought HL after playing CS and other mods for ages with my friend's version. NS was fun but I don't play that or any other HL stuff now so I'd probably be up to exactly what I'm up to right now... Harvest Moon and learning to mod UT2k4 =3

    Dod and cs. You can get some damn good teamwork in those games - better than a lot of ns games! You just have to find the right servers.

    I still play cs... mainly when friends are playing. Tracking those skulks helped my cs btw!

    Tracking those skulks actually messed up my CS. You can't jump about like a bunny on crack and shoot accurately on CS. For a while I thought the game was broken <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    No wonder Gem is teh win.

    Looks like I'm back to playing HM then....boy how long have I stopped playing I lost the cartridge.

    BTW, On topic, I'd be playing Warcraft III all day, most possibly in a clan and well, be better than what I am now. ATM I am teh suxx0r.

    And I'd be stuck playing CS.....the.....torture......! I'm glad NS exists <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Heck if NS existed and I was still stuck with CS, I'd be swearing abut quinduple the times I am now (which is rarely)

    Without ns I'd probably still be playing TFC, very simply high quality game. I can remember I grew pretty good with the rocket and had mastered teh art of rocket jumping <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If Gangwars had a server, I'd most definitely be playing that. Gangwars had the best actual gameplay of any mod ever to exist, and it never got boring. I've been playing NS since 1.03, but GW definitely won as far as sheer fun factor goes.

    Other games:

    DoD
    TFC
    HI (Hostile Intent)

    CS sucks balls.

    If I didn't play NS so much I'd probably have released an amazing psy trance album by this point, instead of having 1 complete psytrance track and a bunch of misc. complete tracks from different genres and like 3 unfinished trance tracks.

    NS definitely keeps me playing HL, but I likely won't be playing NS any more once HL2 or Doom3 make it out the door. (still not sure which one will make it to us first though) As is, my attention to the game has dwindled due to the totally awesome Final Fantasy XI, a re-introduction into Warcraft 3, and the massive time drain otherwise known as grad school. Needless to say, I'm thoroughly interested in the new stuff that UWE is going to be putting out in the future. If it is anywhere on the scale of quality that NS has shown us then I'll probably be seeing most of this same crowd on THOSE forums when the time comes.

    An idea I'd like to put forward, though it's sure to be rejected, is to release NS resources to some other team to pick it up as a HL2 remake (not to make NS 2 or anything, just a port if you will to another, newer engine)

    Nevertheless, my experiences with NS will never really leave me even after I leave the game.

    I guess I'm all alone on this one when I say that NS is the only game I actually played. I tend to go in swings, a month of inactivity game-wise, then a wild orgy of daily NS.

    Perhaps the only other games I consider are new ones, and I just try them, I don't like them. But thats just me.
