Nerf Arena Blast - The strangely addicting kid's FPS receiving a revival - Games

This was my first FPS as well, I did get it set up again not too long ago but there was only 1 server up and it was empty and i haven't really touched it since then. I'll look into getting back into this game, as it was definitely fun.

My grandmother and dad introduced me to gaming through UT99. I remember getting my ass kicked by my grandma at UT99. My dad says after I was introduced to UT99 I wouldn't play this game because it was too "kiddy." I felt so grown up. :v:

[QUOTE=catbarf;30192329]I'm gonna go out on a limb and say 'five of us' doesn't constitute a revival.[/QUOTE] You misunderstand, the revival is the recently uploaded new version of the CP, because the game was nearly unplayable in the state it was in before. We could always use more players, Commandhat was just so impressed by the new CP that he decided to come over here and share it.

[QUOTE=commandhat;30204429]Your grandma played UT? I envy you. :saddowns:[/QUOTE] She still does. I love my grandma.

The visual image in my head accompanying this post is full of win and may very well be one the best ideas I've had for an ad campaign for a video game. XD Also, on topic, that link in the first post now links to the CP 2.5, the latest revision. It's a TON easier to install, so Command you might wanna change the 2.0 in your post to reflect the new version.

I installed it but I have no menu nor a crosshair and HUD.

Rajada, for a first time poster you are awesome. May the Facepunch gods protect you from the Banhammer. I played this game when it came out. Was pretty fun actually... but just thinking of Nerf, is there any plans to mod in the new guns, like the Raider, Vulcan, etc?

I don't mean to be rude, but it might get you flamed in the future.

Haha, tell you what, from now on I'll just write out all my emoticons that I[I] rarely[/I] use anyway as a string of barely comprehensible words surrounded by colons. :laughinguproariouslyatpeopletakingthetimetobackseatadministrateoverasmilelylol: Better? I tell you what, if you can show me where XD is against the rules I'll stop using it. Because I run a website, I know what flame is like, I could seriously not care less about being flamed, and as hard as I try I'm going to subconsciously continue to use my emoticons because I'm used to them.

You can use them, just don't over-use them. Instead, we have an extensive image emoticon list, you oculd try poking through that. On topic: should I do a Let's Play of ArenaBlast things? Like all of the CW maps, Infiltration, stock arenas, etc?

[QUOTE=commandhat;30312391] On topic: should I do a Let's Play of ArenaBlast things?

I'd love to be included too, and I'm sure some of the other community members could help out. Plus I'm sure it would help people here to [I]see [/I]the massive amount of fun content we have rather than solely taking our word for it. But let's keep it smart, no need to do all CW maps, maybe like small categories. Like a video about custom weapons, and one about some fun mutators and one about the normal maps, and one on single player stuff. Oh, and on the SP stuff, we'd need to decide on what level of content to reveal, whether or not we'd spoil it like a walkthrough or just show less context-sensitive clips.

Everything would take an hour from everybody blasting each other off.

You should announce your intentions to do this on nerfarena.net so I can get a few people in on it.

In general, Let's Plays are meant to show one user playing through a game and showing their opinion on things. That's why I said stock maps, so people know what the base game is like without all the addons that could make or break the game - because with the addons what they're seeing is base game + something else. [sp]also, I'm horrible at multiplayer[/sp]

I also like how someone agreed with you and consequently agreed to the info in your spoiler.
