Pro tip for rocket fights

Published by Kevin under All Other Games

When in a rocket fight, such as quakeworld death match, quakelive, rocket arena or unreal tournement (just to name a few),  stay away from walls.  When the rocket hits the walls next to, or behind you, the splash damage can do some serious damage.

The Fortress Forever movie

Published by Kevin under Fortress Forever

And people wonder why Fortress Forever players love the game? Once you play Fortress Forever, you will never go back.

Visit this thread in the Fortress Forever forums to comment on the video.  Sorry you tf2 fans, Team Fortress 2 has nothing on Fortress Forever.  This is what Team Fortress – Capture the Flag – is all about.

Quake 2 files

Published by Kevin under Quake

We here at Elite Gamers are proud to announce that a new downloads section has been opened.  If any of you are old enough to remember CDROM.com, well, a lot of the files that are being added to the downloads section were downloaded from CDROM.com before they closed the FTP section.  That means you will be able to find some old files, such as warcraft 2 puds, quake files, quake 2 files and so on.

The section is that is being populated right now is the Quake 2 files area.  Some of you old school Quake 2 fans might remember the Fragtown series made by Bruce Oberleitner, who is also known as Demolition Man. Well, we have a lot of the Fragtown maps that clan 21+ helped play test.

We also have the Doom 2 remake for Quake 2.

Interview with l4d players about part 2

Published by Kevin under Left 4 Dead

This, and other videos shows just how mad the players are at Valve for the quick release of part 2.  In part, the video speaks the truth.  The players were really just beta testers for Valve.  Even though the people at Valve  said they will continue to update left 4 dead 1 – but a lot of players seriously doubt it.

Left 4 Dead 2 incendiary ammunition

Published by Kevin under Left 4 Dead

Now this looks like it might be a pretty cool feature. When I first saw the video, I though it was tracers, until the player picked up the box of ammo.

Thanks goes to DutchBoyPim for posting this video on youtube.
