kAoS

You know a game is dead when the only peps left are clannies..... and instagib comps....

No matter how hard you wax ya poles Epic with all your BS hype about the 2k7 edition.. (Wich basically, if you go with all the hype and bs they spewing out.... is a brand new fandangle engine capable of unmanned flight to Mars and back.. but will play like Q3... yeah nice one.. bozos... new engine to kill off the complexities of the game back to a n00blar Quake3 level).... UT4 is deaad as the dodo....


Epic have virtually disowned it... and the new players do not exist.. they all gone to W0W or some other crap like that.....

Ut2k7 will have resource management and a lot of WoW, cum HALO, cum 1942, cum ala crap....

Noobarses.... why call it UT7 when it will have practically nothing to do with UT itself..... maybe you should try to do something to promote your current game... or is it that UT communities have finally succumbbed to their own greatness and vacummend themselfs up their own arse.... or is it, that the day of the simple DeathMacth is over.....

good while it lasted....

bite me Epic...

The fact that UT2007 will be released as a multi-platform game ie pc and console ....says to me that the game play will be seriously dumbed down ..

Perhaps its EPIC's fault, or perhap its the competitions fault. WOrld of Warcraft IMO have the perfect online gamw sysytem. There is no faults, its just pure bliss ands it costs $20/month thus they have the resources to make it bliss.

Because of its perfcetion, I wont play it. No skill, no goal (except gaining levels which is directlly related to the time you spend playing it which= $20/month). What Im saying is that I agree with gammo, except that its epics fault enterilty. EPIC need to answer to thier investors, who want a return on thier $$$. Fair enough. Without the investors, UT=0 or nothing.

What does this mean, it means we (kAoS as well as community)have a tough road ahead of us. Dwindling numbers, means less poeple to play means less entertainment.

What we have to do, is look at our options. I have a few here:

1. Die hard. Keep playing UT. Keep aiming for awsome skills, with the possibility that our awsome skills will only be able to be matched once per week when we can find someone to play with. At the monent, I can hardly find anyone playing, so I practise offline, or online with bots. REISKS: here is that I get so good, yet have no one to play, thus wasting time. REWARDS: When ut2007 comes out in 2008, we will have ownage skills, kick some ass, still get the same entertainment as we did about 2 months ago.

2. Diversify. Find a differnet game, that you can also start to master and learn, that will have more popular following, and KAOS clan will be able to stay alive. EG. Battlefield 2 is coming out soon. This will have a kick ass following, will be fun, different but at least there will be a community. RISKS: Losing abilities in UT. REWARDS: Staying active as a clan, getting a new interest in a new game, new skills, new weapons, new everything.

3. Consolidate resources. Cut kaos servers down to 1, save money cause no one ever plays two servers at once anyway. RISKS: None. REWARDS: Save mainly gammo some resources, ie $$$.

4. Dismantle. Dismantle kAoS. Quite, dissappear, go elsewhere as individuals, gettng absorbed into other online activity or offline things. RISKS: Obvisouly, losing all the hard work that kaos has had put into it, losing contacts, losing good times, losing our forums, losing our staunchness, losing our immovability, moving our bravery, losing our fucking sex appeal, losing the reaons all the girls wanna be with me (cause I hang with Gammo) losing that awsome clown that is the most popular handsome devil on the planit. Losing Dru, losing R@ge, losing Spammo...I mean Gammo, losing Sirro, losing the extremeley sexy Azzie, losing Stu, losing all our new recruits. REWARDS: Getting rid of that haxor 2K. RISKS: Losing Xaero, losing Hender, losing MIainanananao, Losing fooki losing Gades, losing Acer, losing Evo, losing Danz, losing BLood4blood (wtf ever happened to that guy?), last risk, is losing 2K, who we love and would gladly hand the flag over too, otherwise feeling his translocating wrath! REWARDS: Dont have to put up withe each other. Not getting owned by that clown anymore...

5. DO nothing.
6. Amalgamate. With another clan. RISKS: Losing kAoS identity. REWARDS: Getting a stonger clan participation.

7. [Insert you idea here]


So that is my thoughts on our solutions, options. My heart wants to keep playing UT, over and over and over. On the other hand, my brain says, go find another popular game, get good at it, take the risk of getting owned in UT when you come back, but at least you will be able to come back when there is something to come back too. Realistically, I would like to see a diversification strategy, into some other FPS game. A FPS game that has alot more community participation.

Gimme thoughts and ideas. If you wanna flame me, you sure as fuck better come up with a better option/solution. WE have to survive here, I wanna stick around 100% as kaos, and I wanna stay in kAoS. But we have to have something to stay together, and something worth survive for.

it seems to me that this is a situation revisited . . . i do recall it happening back in UT2k3

IMHO it is a phaze that will pass, just a gliche we must remain strong thru

I wanna stay 100% kAoS & in kAoS

sure if it means cutting down to one server, fine but i dont mind paying extra if thats what it takes

if only one server then it must be on pw for kAoS only cos nothing worse than having ur own server that u sponsor & all the other fuckers come on & spoil things or create problems . . . i still suggest we ride this one a bit. we are a strong force and i know we can get thru this

Yep cutting one served down for now is a good idea no poins paying for somthing we dont use.
I agree the game is dead well inst&ctf is still going ok.

we can make one day off the week for all kaos clan to show up like saturday night on the server and have fun all night just play and have fun dm,vctf like the old days.
This will keep the clan together till things get better or UT2007.

I installed hf2 played some tdm last night it was ok o and wakko the ut2007 i think is comming out in 2006 so its not that long away.

Who knows mabe UT2007 will be a good game and kaos will be back in full power.

Well things may be quiet now but wait till the OUT iCTF League starts, cause i think that ppl have been playing more insta in ut2k4 now then eva before, because last night i had like 4 games of iCTF with almost full server each game. SO i think that insat will keep it going, but people would eventually go back to normal weapons if there was a decent comp running

wakko 4, 5 and 6 are NOT on.... I know u stirring shit up.. but it goes without saying....

I cant imagine plauing Dm in another game all together...... not for me....

Dru Insta is nooblar land... that is my point, you know a game is dead, wen the easist most no brainner gamemode is the only one been played......


i suggest, wat R@ge said.. get together once a week and have some fun games like in the old days....

Of course... should try to get on the server anyways.... hell it's dere.. use it ffs.... play everyday.. well at least try...

I was on there last night from around 9.00pm to about 10.30 or so.... played bots, till I got sick of it.. and then went to sleeepppp.... man is it slow....

i say we need a better network ..linking us together..msn is ok but some people refuse to use it...i dont give a flying toot what we use but we ALL gotta be on it.

i hate missing a good game...any game with a couple of my brethren.

look ill even give you boys my mobile number....i trust you all.



i trusted ekky too thats one i regret.

Can chat in game with ppl even if they are not in there or playing a different game

yer i have xfire . . . nic [azzle], add me to ur buddies

Well i say die hard!

So far kAoS = UT, to change to another game would be like cutting ur ear off, or something else equally painful and disfigurin.

I'm just gonna keep on playing UT until the cows come home.
It worked for me back with UT2003 - i just kept playing to the point where u'd be lucky to see 4 other different players in the one night.(3 of which would most likely be noobs)

Then 2004 came along, and sure it was a bit different with all the fancy onslaught and assualt, and slightly different gameplay, but i still had the base skills from 2003 that i used and adapted to the new game.
And by the nine hells i plan on doing it again

Mind u, 2004 has reached the totalled dead stage - had a few good games of ctf last night, and the servers were full too!

Sure 2007 maybe be differnt, and have even more fancy modes and game types, but i'm just gonna stick to me ol CTF and get even better.

It worked once - it can work again, and i have no doubt that kAoS is going to be on the UT scene for a long time to come!
(unless u have other plans gammo.... )

yer i have xfire . . . nic [azzle], add me to ur buddies

could a told us that was an ........L ......ffs

well excuse me for thinking u were educmicated & well versed in the english written word, ffs

if i had realised u cudn't read then i wud have provided greater explanation . . . u see i have an account under "azzie" but cud not retrieve pw & wud not let me choose same nic again (stupid bloody thing) so hence "azzle"

anyway, Disko, i am happy u worked it out all on ur own, too
