Title: Trem is based on this game
Post by: Sockem on April 08, 2011, 04:07:22 am
okay...i've been inactive for a month because a game called gloom. its like trem, and we need more players...us gloomers are sad because...gloom is dying...but if u guys start playing, we will be able to keep gloom above the water :) it's a long and complicated install (month for me) ...but it's worth it. NO SPAMMING NO SHITTY ADMINS KICKING YOU(HERM) (only 3 or 4 per server)  5 servers but not as much players :(  oh...and dont give up on installing gloom ;)   http://www.planetgloom.com/

Why don't you and your gloom friends come to tremulous?

Just a thought.

EDIT: I am going to try gloom; I've known about gloom for a while and am interested to try it. Just stop the spam-marketing. This only requires one thread and it should really be in off topic; it's not about glooms relationship with tremulous, it's about gloom getting more players.

It would really help if they had mac and linux versions. Although Trem is almost dead too.... Stop trying to steal players.

Forget Tremulous. Play GLOOOOOM!

• Quake 2 engine instead of the outdated engine of Quake 3
• Only for Windows! No other operating systems supported!
• Mod of a commercial product instead of a standalone free game!
• Quake 2 no longer in stores!
• Much space on servers, no crowds tough up your life like in Tremulous!

And:

• Can I interest you for this 1st class condition 2nd hand car?

Fuck, I don't know. Maybe because you're trying to advertise a dead game on the forums for a game that we're trying to restore to glory. We're usually very hostile to advertisements. Look at that Red Eclipse thread.

Also, Gloom doesn't have these: :granger:

HEY, SOCKEM, YOUR SHIFT-KEY IS BLOCKED.

And, while you're calling me a “rude bitch”, I guess I have to return the favour and use swearwords myself. So why don't you just  :-X the  :-X up and  :-X off?

I mean, come on, calling me A RUDE BITCH!!!11eleven is either a kind of humour I don't understand, or you are a complete idiot, in either way, something a guy like you propagates must be bad, so everybody is well advised to do the exact opposite, so, dump that shitty Q2-mod, and go for the real stuff, the one and only – Tremulous.

Because I don't have to try hard to get it on Linux, I only have to install it, and it runs. But maybe I am just somebody who simply wants to enjoy a good game, and not one of those nolifers who have nothing better to do than to hack an ancient game noone is interested in.

That probably has something to do with this:
it's a long and complicated install (month for me)
A month to install... And some people say Steam makes gaming needlessly complicated.

Hello Sockem and welcome to the tremulous community.

You may have noticed that many here do not approve of your marketing methods. In case you did not get the message I think this quote from Rocinante describes the collective sentiment to what you are doing rather eloquently:

Sure Gloom is not as flashy as newer games but for sheer gameplay and fun, i can tell you nothing quite comes close. Maybe it seems odd to plug the game so shamelessly, but it's a crime that such a beautiful game is dying simply because people don't know about it, or aren't willing to give an old game a chance... just my 2 cents.

That's funny because back in 2003 when i played gloom i thought it was on the verge of dying. Then i saw a website that was like 'omg gloom in the q3 engine' but that kinda never happened and a few years later a friend tipped me off on good old here trem - that was a really nice follow up to gloom ;)

Title: Re: Trem is based on this game
Post by: Saliva on June 07, 2011, 08:08:05 am
Gloom was a fun game over a decade ago. It was never balanced in any way but it had some very overpowered classes that were fun to use. Like kamikazes that explode and destroy the whole human base even far away or heavy trooper that shoots rockets that have huge splash radius and kill anything in one hit.

One of the best memories I have is me abusing the heavy trooper so much that the developers nerfed it. I just shot the floor under my feet with rocket launcher killing myself and two aliens getting the needed 2 points to get another heavy trooper and I repeated that until the alien team had nothing but the weakest classes left and then attacked their base in the same manner standing next to an egg, shooting and killing myself and the defenders. Of course I could have just shot the aliens and survived myself but that wasn't as fun. I'm not sure how no one else realized how overpowered some of the classes were.

The current version has deteriorated badly. Since 1.3 kamikaze and especially ht were weakened to uselessness. Without the overpowered classes the games almost never end. In addition to that if you thought egg spam was bad in trem 1.1 in gloom it's ridiculous, especially on the gigantic custom maps all servers run. Also people love to play the same map whole day always voting 45 min extra time when the map time is about to run out. Despite all this gloom is still worth checking out if you want to see what tremulous is based on but nothing more.
