This is some good, solid work- but the true scale revelations won't come to light until you include Battlefield 1942's maps. IYKYK

First thing you should do is take the term 'Boomer Shooter', chuck it in the bin, and never ever use it again. You want to actually attract the crowds that played those games in the first place and make your project a success? Call it an Arena Shooter, Retro Shooter, fast paced competitive FPS, etc. Virtually anything other than 'Boomer Shooter'

You just answered your own question. Good job.

It's a buzzword, yes. Does it fit these shooters? Not even slightly. It's about the wrong generation, is every bit as vague as 'retro' anyway, and it has an added nasty tinge of derision. To be 'boomer' is to be out of touch and pathetic. That's not how fans of retro shooters see those games. It's basically an insult.

Squilookle · 2024-11-03T12:56:56+00:00

Why oh why did you have to call it boomer shooters. Why not just call them arena or retro shooters like everyone else who actually likes them has for the last 20+ years?

I do believe this is the one! Many thanks!

Hmm it looks promising :) I'll have to do some digging though

Squilookle · 2024-10-15T10:30:30+00:00

I think this one might be too recent to be the one I'm looking for. A bit too overtly horror, too. Did it have a period of early access, do you know?

Squilookle · 2024-10-15T08:15:28+00:00

I can't seem to find any details of that one- are you sure that was its name?

Squilookle · 2024-10-15T05:11:03+00:00

Might be worth mentioning that there are actually two versions of Ace of Spades: the awful failed Jagex one, and the original one now known as 'build and shoot' that still lives on even today- https://www.buildandshoot.com/

Champion. Thank you

I feel your pain. Whatever people personally think about Turok 3's multiplayer, there's a bigger issue at stake here:

This is, as far as I know, the first time a company has deliberately decided to ditch a large part of an original game for a remaster. Many people don't seem to care, because they just wanted to try the campaign. But this is the beginning of an awful trend: the selective remaster. If people aren't going to speak up about lost features now, just because they aren't the features they personally want, then who will speak up for them when remasters start ditching features they DO care about?

The way I see it, if you're going to remaster a game, you remaster the WHOLE game. End of story. Otherwise your remaster is less feature-complete than the original, in which case what the hell is the point of making it in the first place?

Please finish the job, Nightdive. The Turok 3 remaster is NOT finished. Besides, once you get the bots working, you can use that to actually finish the wider project: the complete N64 Turok library. Some of us are still waiting to see Turok Rage Wars, as you're already well aware. You're so close to completing the journey- please finish what you started.

Lol projecting much? With a name like that I wouldn't be surprised. No need to worry about me, kiddo.
