by Lime @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 11:36am

And the new forum? It'd be nice to get a mention on that, too...

by Sasukene @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 12:27pm

I got 4 weeks to go of school

by epicfail5000 @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 2:26pm

guys its cause hes in highschool (or collage probelly high school) and they get out before middle school and elementary (unless you live in denmark then you get out on the first day because your homo XD

by epicfail5000 @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 2:27pm

sry its just that everyone knows when zombies come they will start in denmark which is why...i live in virginia ohhhh yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

also another thing for modern tactics 4 make it so that if you go through a window you cant go any farther without a certain perk because it takes time to go through a window xd

by epicfail5000 @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 2:27pm

exept its easy to go through a girls hole BOW CHICKA BOW WOW!!!!!

by l4stspartan @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 6:09pm

omg Lautans alive!!! lol jkbut nice to hear, er, see from you agin. had a sweet idea, how about civilians, just random guys you can place on the map and they walk about aimlessly or maybe you could set a path for them or something it would be really cool.

by italiansoccer @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 6:40pm

i could dig civilians.... the problem is that 1.They would always get in the way 2.what is a random dude doing in a warzone? 3.alot of people will get annoyed with them

by Lime @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 6:46pm

Well, it depends....if you just parachuted your soldiers into a city, of course there would be civilians. If you're fighting a war out in a barren wasteland, there won't be.

by SirJid @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 6:59pm

Even in a city, wouldn't the civilians just get out of the way? Then again, they can't do that in this game because you can't leave the map.

by chopy @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 8:14pm

lautan plz fix the map editors... WWII tactics and zombie tactics are unplayable without the editor

by aaa @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 8:20pm

what would be the point of even having civilians if they just walk around doing nothing? why waste time putting them in if they are pointless

by chopy @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 9:05pm

maybe make a game mode where you have to protect the civilians

by SirJid @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 9:27pm

Didn't he say he was already doing a hostage game type?
That wouldn't really be much different.

by Quiche @ May Sun 2, 2010 @ 11:42pm

There could be civilians around if it was a peacekeeping mission, then you have to protect them against the bad guys.

by Randyll13 @ May Mon 3, 2010 @ 4:07pm

nice, congratz on making it through the year lautan and hope you don't work yourself too hard!

by aaa @ May Mon 3, 2010 @ 6:27pm

he said he's already making a hostage game mode where u have to protect civilians so y just put them in randomly

by l4stspartan @ May Mon 3, 2010 @ 7:12pm

hostage and civilians running about are completely different so leave me alone.

by l4stspartan @ May Mon 3, 2010 @ 7:35pm

oh yeah... first 10 home page posts have gone up now, lol, the new site is growing pretty fast.

by SirJid @ May Mon 3, 2010 @ 7:55pm

I still think that if there's one, the other is similar enough that there's no point in having it as well.

by l4stspartan @ May Mon 3, 2010 @ 9:37pm

ok i got everyones point 10 posts ago, it's a dumb idea i get it just shut up or im gonna spam the fuck out of this.

by epicfail5000 @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 3:17pm

l4stspartan your idea is amazing forget the others heres some stuff that could be good with civilians

1. to add on to a hostage game mode there could be where you parachuted into the city and must take out terrorist without letting them kill too many civilians game keeps going till the civilian death count reaches a certain number

2. it will give the enemies something else to shoot at and they could be like mini distractions but not too many if used in this case

3. civilians could be wild card types...if a dead soldier comes the civilian could take their items and work for the team that killed that soldier (ex your team kills a terrorist a civilian see sthe dead terrorist gets motivated and couragous and takes the terrorist stuff and works for you agianst them but since they arent trained they only get half the perks chosen at random from that guy and only gets to use the secondary weapon (this is a wild choice but could work very well in the game)

4. make game more realistic.

5. civilians could have keys to houses with terrorist in them and they could give em to you if you do something in return (still thinking about that or they could just give em to you)

those are my ideas and dont give up l4stspartan your ideas are good and my ideas made it so there were no bad ideas xd.

by epicfail5000 @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 3:18pm

and that was the longest comment in the history of throw the project trust me i measured it to the tallest comment before and its 2 centimeters taller xd. computer screen wise.

by epicfail5000 @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 3:19pm

and add quiches comment to my list xd now making my comment 4 centimeters tall xd.

by swallowdanut420 @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 4:53pm

damn jews

by l4stspartan @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 5:16pm

shut up aaa you dick.

by l4stspartan @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 5:21pm

alright poor tiing with lipping aaa off but could i by any chance be a mod to delete the 100+ ads and such on the forums... i enjoyed looking at soe of the things that were going on but people are taking advantage of the forums now.
on a second note, aaa's post isn't the longest post seeing as it isn't a post it's mindless spam, just wanted to throw that out there.

by l4stspartan @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 5:22pm

...poor "timing" with...

by ageust @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 7:21pm

for the last time l4stspartan, they're bots, not people.

however, becouse i was away, dark doesn't delete it (and i can't blame him) and atom is MIA, it was to much for lime (with reason) so we all gave up, its just not worth it for the three or four active members.

by Lime @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 7:25pm

Well, I already had to delete ONE huge spam wave for all of you, but you guys kinda pushed it too far, leaving me that much spam while you go do whatever.

by SirJid @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 7:45pm

I never meant to say that having civilians would be a bad idea, and I'm sorry if it came off that way. I just meant that the two would be too similar to have both.

by SirJid @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 7:47pm

btw, I personally like the idea of civilians, but I think that hostages is a little more realistic.

by ageust @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 8:21pm

yeah, i don't blame you.

by l4stspartan @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 8:45pm

what do you mean "for the last time"? this is the first time i've been told that on this site, thanks for the nice first impression.

by l4stspartan @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 8:45pm

plus the shear fact i have nothing to do seeing as work isn't going so well right now so i would actually atleast try.

by ageust @ May Tue 4, 2010 @ 8:47pm

wasnt that you...? shit, sorry. someone else i guess. sorry.

by b25 @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 9:49am

i like civilians, but there is no point to have civilians unless they are hostages, otherwise they would really have no effect on the game

by epicfail5000 @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 3:54pm

and aaa spam comments dont count and my comment rocked and there is a reason for b25 you just gotta use your brain you fattady fat fat magey who likes to hump trees and drink megan foxes pee...wow that sounded wrong but soo true xd and b25 you have no imagination and my comment is still longest non span muahahahahaha

by epicfail5000 @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 3:56pm

and i had more ideas about civilians but if ive already said a idea just ignore that idea ok here you go

1. civilians can like have knowledge of hidden paths (like in the board game clue where you can go into a corner room and out the hole.........wow i gotta stop watching prn on youtube

ANYWAYS

2. civilians can make game more realistic like a mission because civilians will run if you parachute into a city and there just stareing but they will still be in game running away doing the picking up dead guys weapons and helping the side that killed that man because his morale went up for those guys.

by swallowdanut420 @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 4:01pm

jews r the cause to all wars

by epicfail5000 @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 4:03pm

if your gonna use a type of system where it involes the classic win points or money and buy stuff or something related to it in some degree they could be like secondary objectives rescue them, get information from them, interrogate them to figure out if they are terrorist spys xd i had dream about me being one...i died in the first 3 minutes

civilians (as ive realized) will want to protect their familes so if you go into a little neighbor hood heres wat i had idea for

father- protects family with a melee weapon like a bat or a double barrel or other civilian type gun or weapon
mother- as long as shes alive a morale boost to everyone thats alive in that family
daughter and son- chance to make the *bright* side of terrorist come out and not shoot the family for a turn for people that can see them in thier range (STILL ALLOW THE KIDS TO DIE I WANT TO SEE A GAME THAT ALLOWS KIDS TO DIE PLZZ)
visiter (Optional) can act as a father but with less power and helps defend family if he dies mother powers are usless because the mother liked him more XD kidding ignore that

next idea-civilians can be the people that give you outfits and weapons and crap like you said you might do that could be great

ok thats all i got for now more ideas later

lautan if you need somebody to give you ideas i happily volunteer like i will work as a job for free for this as long as it will get the game out faster but still as good as it wouldve been i will help all throwtheproject lovers BECAUSE I AM YOUR GOD...kidding but i will help just comment back i read this every day

by epicfail5000 @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 4:04pm

and i am happy to say my last comment beat my previous tallest comment by about half a centimeter so NEW BEST COMMENT SPAM COMMENTS DONT COUNT WOOT!

by aaa @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 5:10pm

good job on the record...
an idea for civilians:
because theres the money system in the game, maybe there could be an amount of civilians in the beginning of a level, and however many are left at the end of the level gives you money (like $100 per person). during the level the terrorists try to kill them and you try to save them because you want to get more money.

also, there could be no money gain for saving them but if a terrorist kills them then you lose money, so it motivates you to be extra careful to keep them alive.

or, you could mix them. if they die you lose money and if you keep them you get more money.

or, there could be an action to talk to a civilian or something and if you go up to them and talk to them in their house or wherever you get money.

just throwing out ideas..what u think?

prn on youtube? seriously?

by BALLSE @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 5:42pm

Nice Lautan on summer break..... How about you put down the bong for a second and give us an update. XD

by TehGuest @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 5:44pm

There is absolutely no point in having civilians. Hostages are one thing, but a civilian that isn't a hostage is obviously running away from the battle
No one in their right mind would stick around for a firefight they have no part in.

by l4stspartan @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 7:01pm

not to start an arguement but you would be amazed what people will go through to get some sweet footage or whatever it may be.

by TehGuest @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 7:23pm

What does that have to do with the actual battle though?
Again, the only realistic danger civilians would be in is hostage situations, which would make random civilians walking around redundant

by l4stspartan @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 9:13pm

this kinda sounds like it would be turning into S.W.A.T. tactics or something, although that would be a cool idea.

by aaa @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 9:31pm

yea, civilian ideas are pointless.
only use them as hostages is the best way, which is already being made

by SirJid @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 10:19pm

still, civilians would be there at the beginning of the fight and then run away. Also, they might get trapped in a building or by crossfire.

by l4stspartan @ May Wed 5, 2010 @ 11:20pm

ok, stop right now i already see sides getting built stop right here.

by destructopoo @ May Thu 6, 2010 @ 5:13am

Honestly, I don't think the civilians would act like real people would I mean they would be all over the place. I like hostages better it just seems more realistic.

Speaking of parachuting, are Airborne troops still being used?

by b25 @ May Thu 6, 2010 @ 9:05am

ya just keep it hostages, Airborne would be tight

by AtomDragon @ May Thu 6, 2010 @ 1:18pm

by aaa @ May Thu 6, 2010 @ 6:24pm

no civilians, only hostages. nobody mention civilians again, they dont work. end of conversation

by SirJid @ May Thu 6, 2010 @ 11:40pm

civilians

by b25 @ May Fri 7, 2010 @ 11:17am

man there better some updates on that demo, gonna be honest, super lame! no sound effects, no music, camera movement needs to change, as well as unit movement, and that glitch needs to be fixed where the enemy keeps moving. (i know all of this has already been said, i needed to say it for myself)

by b25 @ May Fri 7, 2010 @ 11:31am

oh an also, lautan, you should add awards for the other games you have

by BUBEAR @ May Fri 7, 2010 @ 6:47pm

DAMN, IT WENT ACROOS INSTED OF DOWN OH WELL, IT STILL COUNTS XD
