SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

In Response To: Crosshairs? (Khral)

: None of the Marathon series had any crosshairs. This
: obviously required you to practice and develop skills
: over time, which was one of the many reasons I liked
: Marathon so much. Making precision shots was a matter
: of practice. Conversely, when a newbie jumps into a
: type of game with built-in crosshairs, he just begins
: ripping away like some pro! Is there something wrong
: with this picture? The crosshairs just makes gameplay
: too easy, and as long as someone knows how to follow
: through with their weapon of choice they can make
: accurate shots at almost 90% of the time. It then
: becomes a match of who can shoot first, etc.

: Also consider this... if someone wanted to aim a SPNKR
: over a ledge without concealing himself, he'd
: naturally adjust his view so it just barely looks down
: below. The unskilled player would be surprised to
: learn that he has aimed too low, blowing himself
: straight up right there at the ledge. Having to watch
: a newbie kill himself in the same manner for the old
: Marathon series always brought about many laughs.

: Anyway, is the Resurrection team considering dropping the
: crosshairs? And... someone brought up the question
: about whether the SMG will be included. Knowing that
: it will be included in the mod will surely get me to
: download it. So... will it? =)

: (Sorry if the crosshairs question was repeated. I made a
: search on your forums and couldn't find any topics
: regarding this question.)

It's a server option.
