General Gilliam

Yeah, most of the inhabitants of Knowhere and all of the inhabitants of Zero.

Actually, in recent times, the capital building hasn't been used for anything, and the rail station has become obsolete (we built a direct, monster-free underground rail system). There was only like 3 people (including me) living there, and we all just moved out, so it's a ghost town. Just so you know, the people involved in this are: Me (GeneralGilliam), harrycolez, tjo_06, rock10010000, dudsla, pellyo.

Yeah, Zero City on the OCAD server is pretty much abandoned, so a bunch of us took supplies from it to build new towns. All of the people that play on the server regularly joined in. We didn't grief, we all made a group decision that this town was quickly dying and decided to use the supplies that nobody was using to make new towns.

THE CUBE! Also, yeah, OCAD is down. Thing goes down way too much. Might start making the official one my main server. Sucks too, because I really like the economy system we have going over there

Can I be whitelisted on the "official" server? I'd like to check it out. Most from the OCAD server (except The Damned) will tell you I've been very helpful and a model citizen....or else. Names: GeneralGilliam

Personally, I'd have to recommend Halo: Reach, Final Fantasy 13, and Borderlands. All 3 are hit or miss, you'll most likely either love em or hate em. Halo's a great game and can provide mass amounts of entertainment. If you like the older Halo games, or FPS' in general, check it out. FF13 is one that'll really be hit or miss. Most people either thought it was great, or hated it immensely. I was one of those people who put off buying it for a year because I thought it looked bad and I'd hate it. I was wrong, turned out to be a great game, good story, good gameplay, and good length. The only things that kinda disappointed me were lack of things to do post-game, and not very memorable/likable characters (except Sazh, he's awesome.) Borderlands is a fantastic FPS RPG hybrid. Think Fallout style, but a lot better made, and a lot more replay value. The story is weak at best, but the dialogue and tone of the game are very enjoyable and entertaining (and funny). There's 4 different characters to choose from, all with their own ability trees and skills, so the replay value is good. If you play with friends the game is a fantastic party game. A lot of teamwork can be used in the game, but not really the fast paced intense teamwork you'd expect from a FPS like Halo or Call Of Duty, more of the casual teamwork like something out of a Mario Party game. I'd definitely say look em up, watch some IGN reviews on em to see if they look interesting (don't trust Zero Punctuation, he scrutinizes the games very intensely simply because it gets a laugh, don't take it as a serious review.). All 3 are generally cheap for 360 games too now.

OCAD is back up and runnin!

Yeah Minecraft Forums will be down for about 5 hours. On a brighter note, contacted 99 on Twitter, says the server went down and he's trying to get it back up and running. Won't be too much longer he hopes.

There's a penis joke there somewhere.

Now instead of it being down, it's showing connection refused on OCAD. Did you implement a whitelist? Because it's getting a signal from the server, just not lettning me connect. I'm not the only who's having this problem BTW.

How come the OCAD server is down? I must finish my new pork shop, "Eat My Meat!"

Armor Lock is extremely useful in campaign (though you rarely get it). In multiplayer it's probably the best Armor Ability. In Muliplayer, sprint is next to useless. It's only useful if you run away a lot (AKA suck), or have a sword.

Haha. Hahahahaha. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! You're a funny dude.

I'm not too sure how I feel about this. Halo Reach, while not having the best level design, was still a very enjoyable game. I still play it a lot. I think if they continue to expand on the armor ability system to have more defined classes, and focus on making some good multiplayer maps (and possibly some remakes), then it could turn out to be a huge success. I'm one of those guys who plays these games pretty much for the mulitplayer, not the campaign. I personally think they need to expand the armor abilities into a more class structure. Like in Reach they have medic class which has a drop shield (slowly heals health when your in it). I think they should make an ability that heals similar to that, but can restore vehicle health, and ammo and such. Make it so there's actually a defined medic on the team. That lineup of people looks great though. Judging by their past works, this game should come out pretty damn good.

Yeah, the remake looks kick ass, but the gameplay and FFX Bahamut made it look like shit IMO.

I'll take "OS's that I hate" for 500 please.

So, because people are happy with something means they shouldn't bother to improve it? I see a flaw in your logic sir. Windows fanboys will be Windows fanboys.

But it's obvious from the video this is their focus of the new OS. The video pretty much reads "Look at this amazing new tile OS, and how pretty it is. Look at all the cool stuff it can do, it's gonna be so awesome! Oh, and we're also gonna include that desktop thing."

Oh, I know it can be bypassed, I just wish they wouldn't even make it with the tiles to begin with. Instead of trying to make their new OS look like a smartphone/apple device to appeal to the computer-retarded generation, they could just spend their time working on a desktop OS and making it better. If they would do that instead of focusing on crappy but flashy things like the tilemenu, then they would have less of a chance of having another catastrophe such as vista.

Yeah, this OS looks pretty good for a tablet, or a windows phone. For a PC though, it looks terrible. Everything is moving towards the crappy large tiles and apps, which is a step back in my opinion. So far, this looks to be really noob friendly, but really unfriendly towards people who actually know how to effectively use a computer.

Two? That's it?

There is no cage. That whole thing was a small fight that got blown way outta proportion.

That is IF THE SERVER EVER GETS BACK UP!

Server's down. Been down since late last night When it was up, everything seemed to work fine. The Nether is awesome too.
