POSTAL Megathread: Let's piss on everything and blow their heads off v1 - Games

Yeah, he could/should replace the minecraft subforum. That games glory days are pretty much over or better yet replace the rust subforum with postal

[QUOTE=GoldenTWM;43514018] or better yet replace the rust subforum with postal[/QUOTE] that would be ironic

Do any of you guys feel like the shovel alternate fire should dismember?

I feel that the shovel needs a buff in damage, in it's current state it's damn near useless

[QUOTE=GoldenTWM;43514018]Yeah, he could/should replace the minecraft subforum. That games glory days are pretty much over or better yet replace the rust subforum with postal[/QUOTE] I wouldn't say so. It's still really fucking popular.

I just think you can't generalize such a large fanbase like that, that's all.

Of course you can't, it's a joke primarily, even though one good look at minecon 2013 may convince you otherwise.

Seems odd to me that it has it's own sub forum but I guess it helps bring in people to these very active forums maybe, admittedly P2 would not :) I really like how these forums work, what are the based on and what mods does it use, does anyone know?

I'd normally be all for a FP Postal 2 subforum but I don't think we have enough fans. We have like a dozen regular posters in this thread, tops. Is that enough to justify a subforum being made?

I think it's all written from the ground up from scratch.

I think we could get a subforum. Maybe it will get more active if more people will hear about Postal 2 and come here to chat/read 'bout stuff. Someone should just ask garry about it.

Yeah don't bother asking Gary for A P2 subforums lol, he's never going to go for it unless he's a massive fan himself (unlikely). It will only ever have a cult following even if it's more popular than ever right now.

its garry with two Rs >:C

[QUOTE=Megaman1811;43514839]I know for a fact that Facepunch runs a higley modded vBulletin. The control panel is just like every other vBulletin forum[/QUOTE] Didn't garry steal a lot of the way the forum works from something awful?

[QUOTE=Ryo Ohki;43514886]Specific game subforums are usually added for games that are insanely popular, I don't see that happening[/QUOTE] we could just have a hostile takeover of the automotive addicts section, not like anyone uses that :v:

[QUOTE=endorphinsam;43514918]Didn't garry steal a lot of the way the forum works from something awful?[/QUOTE] Yeah but that was a lifetime ago. [editline]12th January 2014[/editline] Maybe we should take a step back; why can't we all just go over to the RWS forums? We could spread out as much as needed there for bugs and suggestions and all that cool stuff.

He probably would still get a kick out of it. But yeah this thread is not nearly as active as many other game threads to warrant its own forum. But going back earlier, when you mentioned steam forums. There's your problem. The steam forums are literally infamous for how awful they are.

[QUOTE=mysteryman;43515041]I really think you're over estimating how busy this thread is.[/QUOTE] Not really. I mean a dozen active users is a fair estimate in my opinion. And we are maintaining front page which is better than most. We're talking about making a new subforum for Postal when we really don't have enough people. Using the official Postal 2 forums is a good bet.

If Postal 2 gets it's own subforum, every other game megathread will be asking for one as well. The General Games section will just spill out all over the main page of the forum.

That said, we are a pretty fast moving thread. The Skyrim thread over there has like 37 pages per month. How many pages did we crack in a month, 38? I'm actually impressed such a small base on FP has managed that.

Hell I'd love you guys on the RWS forums. I admit they are not as fun as these forums to use, hence why an upgrade is being considered to make you feel more at home. There are more than enough active people in this thread so far to make a radical difference to the future updates and possible future projects...

Have you guys considered letting people commit textures/models for none profit, but simply for a chance to get your name somewhere in the game? Hell I would even do that for completely free just to get my name in the game that refined my childhood.

We're moving decently fast because the game is recently updated and the devs are actually in here. The skyrim thread? skyrims been out for 2 years and at first it went through 38 pages in a day for like almost a year.
