*DAMN R6 Forum

I'm just glad rogue spear still has a certain amount of players wich still,regularly plays..We all remember the good old days,when RS had a blasting Battle league
clans rised and felt...
Cb's where much more intense than the Ghost Recon games.
Ghost recon is nice,but it hasn't got the real action touch wich RS is proud to have..

Just wanted to share my opinion with ya guys :)

Ghr or RS ..

Cheers,iMat

and the awnser to your question, 'RS or GHR?', it most certainly is Rogue Spear.

Snipey, now is probably not the best time to publicly insult anyone.  Use some common sense before I get tired of defending you

well what happens when Raven Shield comes out? only the computers that cant handle Raven Shield will continue playing RS.

Snipey, I will be glad to 1v1 you and I am sure iMat would too.

Ok. . .chillax all. . .Snipey's abuse was deleted and so is yours - I'm retaining only the substance of your post

RS is more dead than hazards dick, lol j/k ;)

But RS is dead..GhR will live on for now..but all games die after time. Its a fact of the world.  Raven Shield comes out..."RS..what the fuck is RS"..."i only play RvS"

See...lol...not making sense...

Rogue Spear is dead! Long live Rogue Spear!
That's not entirely true... I still have a comp full of old games that I play on occasion. Who can refuse classics like Stuntcopter, Brickles, Scarab of Ra, and, of course, Tetris. A Mac Plus/SE/Classic makes a great little Tetris machine.

My god Snipey, what ever shall we do with you? If you would go back and actually READ iMat's post you might note that he was saying that RS is better than GhR.

RS will die. GhR will die. Duh.

R6 was a far better game than RS with regards to gameplay. It is now all but dead. RS will die a similar death as it faces one of the problems R6 faced: it is not OS X native. People will soon tire of booting into OS 9 to play those games. GhR will die once RvS comes out if RvS is as good as rumored. However, it will hold on longer because it is OS X native.

At least until OS XI comes out...

 

Contradicting comments. . .

All the "RS is dead" stuff is bullshit. I look on GameRanger right now. What do I see? 3 RS games! A 'dead' game doesn't have 3 games hosted, and almost always at least one.

Making the comparison between the ammount of RS games, and the ammount of GHR games is an unfair comparison. Is RTCW dead, because there are 1,200 servers, compared to 2,100 for MOH?

That's like saying "You suck at skiing because I am better than you." It's not a fair comparison.

The eventual 'death' of Rogue Spear will be new computers, that can no longer run Mac OS9. [/color]

It is as good as rumored, Since There is no game like Bf 1942 to really rival it like on pc it will be huge :D

Currently the only reason why I still play Rogue Spear is because of my computer :)))_

OOOO ACE!!

I wish and pray Battlefield 1942 comes to the mac..hell to play that game, i will buy a new mac, and yes finally upgrade to OSX. lol

I agree with typhy, RS will only die when nobodys comps can play it because of not having OS9.

Oh god, I would give anything to fly a sturmovik into an invading collum of Panzers coming into my motherland. If BF 1942 came out, I would immediatly quit GhR and go to BF42, plus all my college buddies and old high school buddies play it.

Drool...Man, I'd stop playing everything if BF 1942 came out for Mac..and I had a Mac that could run it. I might even pay a monthly fee if I had to..God that game looks shmexy. Mmmm..Battlefield 1942..aglglglglglgl...oooh, donuts!

What moderator removed my, very smart, and organized reply!?!!??!!?!?

Snipey, I can only pray this is in jest.

     Yeah, I'm with you guys: BF1942 would trump everything else. If it was well-ported (Omni Group, anyone?), I'd be on it faster than Cossack on vodka. I've played it at several LAN parties and at friends' houses, and it's such a fun game.

     <rant that you'll only understand if you've played BF1942>I just wish that either people couldn't eject from planes when the planes were on the verge of blowing up or that if someone ejected from a severely damaged plane, the person who caused the damage would get a kill. My passion is flying. Give me a Zero and I'll play one-man air superiority all day. I've gone through half-hour games in which I was responsible for twenty+ ejects but had only one or two points, because you never kill people in dogfights. They always eject first. Then I look like deadweight to my team. Bah. Bah, I say.</rant that you'll only understand if you've played BF1942>

RS is brain dead.. yet its still allive. GHR is a far better game and can be modded into prob a better game then rvs. GHR has unlimted bounderies. RvS i heard sucks for what it offers like...ummmmm problems.. like "pistol zoom" wtf last time ic hecked a 92F doesnt have a pistol zoom... i guess u squent harder for the zoom lol... it has problems...

I know what you're saying Loth, I like boats and tanks more though, it's more down to ground (or water hehe) ;)
I always play BF42 when I'm at LAN gaming places.

yo guys thx for the replies :)

but i wasn't saying ghr sucked,cuz ghr is actually qiot a nice game,once u get used to it...i just liked the fact that rs still has an active community,after all it dates back to 2000...

give it a rest - it's an online forum, people

    RS does still have a following in the community. However, the main reason is that a large portion of those people do not have the money for, nor do they desire a new computer, and therefore cannot run GhR (or Rvs when it comes).

    For me, unfortunately, RS has all but died because of the fact that it will not run under OS X natively. And restarting into OS 9 is just too much of a hassle considering that RS is the only reason that it is still on my tower.

    If RS would get an update to run on OS X, I'd start playing it again because the game play is pretty good. And most of my friends in the community are still playing RS as I've moved on to GhR.

Shadowbox, that is the exact reason  ;D I do not have a fast enough computer to run Ghr, if I did, therfore I would play it, but I have a 266, and my family is pretty much poor.. we probably only have about 2 Grand tops of money. That is why I cannot afford to buy a new computer. But, Even if I did have Ghr, I would still play RS frequently, because it is a very good title, and it shall never die..

<off-topic to snipey>

I removed your reply because it was a reply to an insult that I also removed.  Pay attention.  As for your original insult, I removed that because it was an insult, not a smart and well-organized reply.  

My patience level as of this post= 50%. . .when it drops to zero I'll recommend a ban like everyone else.

Shadow thats only for a few people i hang on OSX but still think Rs is far better then Ghost recon and when RVS comes out i may buy it but probably just ip join with my leet PC :)

On a sidenote what is it with graphics cards and macs, macs have two 128 mb Cards and PC's already have two 256 mb cards...

i have been away from RS for about 8 months, and its damn depressing that it seems to have died....i have been out of the loop, when is raven shield coming out? how dead is RS? and also, how alive is ghost recon? someone clue me in, please?

Me personally thinks that RS isnt dead. GhR is too much about camping and stuff, and the gameplay is also not very well. I have a fast computer so if RvS comes out, i'll start to play it. But i wont stop playing RS coz its so beautiful  ;D

 Spike, RS is not dead. There is almost always a RS game up.  

 ;D thats damn good to hear.

RvS rocks, i played in a windows thing  and yes its fun, a bit more arcade play style, easyr to aim and weapons are more stable enz... But you still can die with 1 hit....

Well, to be honest I love both games.  Granted I ahvent played RS in a long time but I still love the game.  Now if they were to make an OSX version for the game I would again be all over it.  RS is a good game but since the makers refuse to make an OSX version for the game RS might be the first to die out.  Hopefully they make an OSX version of the game.  That would be sweet.  And especially since now Mac's are not coming with 9 at all that might present a problem for the future of RS.

+MOD+Saberian

That is highly unliekly that anyone will make a Carbonized version of Rogue Spear.  Macsoft's license with Redstorm has all but expired...I think

Unfortunately, that is why I think that RS will die out, because hte new comps being released are not coming with OS9, so therefore unless OS9 can be put onto the new maching RS will become another moment in history =(

if starcraft 2 comes out, I think I will quit playing GhR  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I have not played RS in ages.  Last time I had a good game was probably a year ago.  I hate the fact that my computer is now fully OS X because I am forced into GHR, when in reality, my heart stays with RS.

I will never forget the great games I had, and the awesome fun I had with the greatest people on earth: the community of GameRanger. I will never forget *POD*, and the awesome friends I had on GR.


My heart will stay with RS, and every FPS will likely pale in comparison with the times experienced on GR.
