<div class="IPBDescription">I mean, WTH?</div><rant>
I hate to talk bad about another mod when they do really dumb things. It doesn't help them (because usually they won't listen), and it makes me look bad, as if I'm out to bump my mod out by downing theirs or something, which isn't the case...
But who the hell thinks *THIS* is a rare and newsworthy screenshot to show off the talent of their team?

To save the guilty of embarrasement they rightfully deserve, I will not mention their name.
I mean really, what the hell???

I should take a picture of an old JK map I have.. and then post a SS and have you all tell me which looks better the HL2 Source one or the 32bit JK one <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> (JK == 8 yrs old engine, based on the C? or C+? coding I think)
(I'm a nub when it comes to games so if source uses the same code, you are all free to smack me <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->)
for lack of knowledge of programming in general.
Yeah it looks quite good actually, but too much gloss.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
O Garry mod screenshots <b>are not amusing</b>. Try putting some actual concept art in the POTD if you dont have anything remotely funny to show.
O We dont care about box maps or looking at unskinned Render of AK47 #348834
O We dont want to hear about mods that havent even been started yet.
O fire all existing staff and hire new ones. Triple posting a news post once every two weeks or so makes you look stupid.
If your mod is at 2% completion, you don't post screenshots of.... wood. And lampposts. You still wait til you've got something good to show no matter if you have 5 or 50 guys working on it.

Then why do I see so much demand from people who want to know what the BUS is no matter how many monkeys and typewriters we have put to the task? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
But back on-topic....I saw that screenshot earlier, and more than think "why release something so devoid of action?" I thought "I wonder what that foreign text translates to." I'm pretty sure I remember reading that the graffiti on the walls of maps like de_dust translates to jokes or advertisements for Valve and such, so I wonder if this mod team also put up jokes.

Little do they know there's already a powerline pole in HL2 already, and it looks about 20x better than that one (OMG big white cylinders for the transformers!).

I'd hit it.
Yeah, and as soon as the next cool tech bandwagon rolls in, you know they'll jump right over there, too.
People need to just get over this engine switching crap and make what they want to make for what they want to make it for. Worthwhile work will speak for itself on any platform.
