Tactical Advantage, got tactically 0wn3d by phr0q -

[Wu-Tang ][The Site][Odor Eaters ][Jungle Concrete]

We got the jungle. We go the rumble in the wind. Concrete Jungle.

sHouTs: nugz! , #beyond, ph0cuz (tkz), evasion, sabu, #hhp, pure-elite, (fuck gay ass FED) CommPort5, mlc85, Edward S. , sistom == georgian queer, ahs, and etc.

Wh4t i gots ta say

ayo, chains of thought break like techtonic plates.
the chronic got me thinking and sinking into a sedated state,
eyes red and dialted often i forget to blink.
my freeflow of thoughts overwhelm me and sink rock hard as i deliver my flame attack like charrizard.
by using magnatism my rhymes connect with perfect precision
the incisions i inflict,
your pick..
coz i got the chicken jenna all up on my dick.
stay away from certain words that peirce like flame,
turn raps lame and destroy the rep that i maintaine
as top lyracist. i have you fearless, and still be fearin this.
you envy my oxymoronic phrases and quotes,
got you and yo negros steady takin she-tokes of yo g-roachs while i get your girl to give me deepthroat
the variable of my rhyme reads empty, nothing, null, nada,
poor as fuck pushin a bently.
victory is a sinch see.
coz i repent thee,
once i catch my flows aint no stoppin me.
nugz still be droppin these hypotheses.
fuck reason, this is a straight beatin and rap treason of the third kind.
drop another rhyme for the double nine is what i'm spittin'n
im fixn to leave you in a fucked up predicament,
spread and springly my sugar and cinnamon,
similar synonyms shape shiftenin into ass whipenin
creaturs, melting out your speakers and reforming.
4ever mourning again.
i tear you up so bad leave you in the looney bin.
coz my hallucinagin leave you lying on the floor deprived of oxygen

rap by nugz, dedicated to his ass

Where of Where has Dropzone Been? - I wanted to take this opportunity to let everyone know I am still alive. I have been working on websites, playing EverQuest, and also Thief 2. I am eagerly awaiting the release of Urban Operations which I constantly call Ultima Online due to the same UO thing. I want to apoligize for my lack of involvement lately. If you have been keeping up with the gaming world you will know that pretty much nothing is being released recently, so it is a dull part of the gaming season. Many great games will be out soon and then a new breath of life will be noticed here at TAC. Take care all.

Half-Life 3? - I was talking to my best friend the other day and the subject of Half-Life came up ( actually I brought it up ). Pretty much hands down it has been the game to beat, that and the add-on Opposing Forces which I still play over and over. I think the best part of both the original and Op. Forces was the Black Ops, they scared us, they P###ed us off, but they were great to watch. Anyways, I thought it would be a great idea if Sierra put out a 3rd game called Black Ops. Wouldn't you love to be the final stage in the Black Mesa Saga?

Urban Ops Release Date Set - It looks like early April will be the big day for R6/RS fans, when the expansion to Rogue Spear is released. Urban Operations promises to do more than add more maps and weapons, and hopefully it will deliver.

The Mall of The Sims - Well most of us have become inthralled by the game The Sims, but it started to get a little old maybe after a bit? Okay maybe not, but either way The Mall of The Sims answers you Simms prayers. In this mall one can shop for new skins of ( concert T-shirts, Posters, etc ),
or New wallpapers or floor tiles. The best of the bunch is a shop you go into and download mp3's for the steros, if you own The Sims visit THE MALL OF THE SIMS.

TTT v1.21 Released - Rodion has released the latest version of his Temporary Tango Mission Mod, but it comes with a few extra instructions. FOR THOSE WHO HAVE EARLIER TTT VERSIONS.. Pls. REMOVE ALL OLDER TTT versions before installing the new TTTv1.21 FINAL (FULL) VERSION. The TTTv1.21 BETA came with an uninstaller, so you should uninstall that first! And if you have the old v1.01, or v1.02, simply delete the folder called "ttt" under the mods folder. Then, delete all those "enhancement" files I told you to transfer over to the original RS folders (if you did so). FOR THOSE WHO HAVE OTHER MODS... I highly recommend that you uninstall Rogue Spear (backup any savegames or replays you want to preserve), then totally DELETE the empty "Rogue Spear" folder. Then install RS again (full, clean install) then patch it with either 2.04, 2.05, THEN install TTT v1.21 FINAL...I know this is a lot of work, but I guarantee results ;) NOTE that this is not a conspiracy to let you get rid of your other mods!!! This is just to prove to you that TTTv1.21 does work, provided installed in a clean, and patched Rogue Spear install. FOR THOSE WHO DON'T HAVE OLDER TTT's and DON'T HAVE OTHER MODS INSTALLED. It should work right after you install it!
- That was from Rodion, thanks to the RS Database. You can download the latest version by going to the RS Database.

150,000 Crammed into Ultima Online - With the new Ultima Online: Renaissance scheduled for release, and not a minute too soon, Electronic Arts announced that they had hit 150,000 subscribed players. That seems like a real crowded joint to me, but we are assured that land will grow and space will be provedided in this update. Players won't have to buy the new CD if they already have an account, it will simply be updated over the next couple of weeks.

TTT Updates - Rodion is almost finished with his next version of the Temporay Tango Mod, and it looks Excellent! Rodion has teeked here and there and made a wonderful mod to the excellent game. What can we expect?, well the Tango skins will drop to 9, but this will be a good thing. You can choose the armor setting for your tangos, and better weapons. Also you get to play out the roles of the Tangos again, this time in Sunny Kosovo and Desal! Sputnik and Rodion have come together for the weapons and sounds making this modification even better. He hopes to have it out this Thursday, WOW!

Activision's " Game In The Shadows " - As Activision is putting the finishing touches on Soldier of Fortune, we have forgotten about the quarter two release of Vampire: The Masquerade, an eye dazzling RPG that I found out about in October of last year. This game looks to jump start somemore life into Activision, after the negative response to the release of the beta on S.O.F. and Interstate '82.

Tempory Tango News - As we all know this modification was a great success, and looks like it might flourish some more. Rodion is working on a mission from the Tangos perspective on Desal and on Kosovo. Plus rumor has it that permission might be given from Sputnik to use his awesome weapon modification in the game. Either way we are highly anticipating their release, I know I am.

HomeWorld: Cataclysm Details - Homeworld: Cataclysm, set 100 years after the original is pitting you against THE BEAST. No wI don't want to give too much away because a lot of you are still playing the original. Most of what needs to be said is, new ships, new foe and still awesome gameplay. Now unfortunatly I have not had the pleasure of playing the orginal yet, but I hope for that to change soon. As for now I can tell you that everyone that I have come in contact with that does play it, loves it. Although you won't need the original to play this ( a rare occurance ), I encourange you to get it first, for the storyline. A few things to look forward to, waypoints, smaller ships combining to make bigger ones...and an upgradable Mothership. You can check out the offical site here.

Tempory Tango Mod Review - Ok, Rodian has defintly outdone himself with this modification. It's a nice spin on the game where you get to play the terroists. I had a lot of fun capturing then holding the hostages. All of the dialog between the Tangos is great and the Rainbow team...is AWESOME! I enjoyed it so much sometimes I would just die then watch how effective the worked. Rodian hopes to put out more of the missions soon, but he became a daddy recently ( congrats! ). I recomend this mod for anyone that enjoyed RS when it first came out.

Can Urban Ops Save RS? - With the recent outcry against Rogue Spear and all it's problems, the question at hand is can Urban Operations bring back the glory days? Besides the romantic idea of playing our old favorites like Mint and Amazon, as well as some other bits of fun, what can we expect from this add-on other than a few weeks of " newness ". Hasn't something been overlooked, shouldn't RSE or someone in the RS comunity fixes the problems at hand in the original before we play this new one. Are people going to play if the server bug and death kills still persist? There are a lot of issues I and some others in the R6/RS community still feel should be addressed before we are hazed over with Urban Ops. If not, it's only a matter of time before they come back to haunt us in Urban Ops.

StarLancer Trailer - Creators of the popular Wing Commander and Privateer series have released the trailer to the new project Starlancer. More and more games are turning towards the fluidness of in game scenes that smoothly happen as opposed to the quickly fading " Cut-Scenes ", that seem to take away from the energy of the game. Starlancer looks to be quite impressive and I urge you to view it. You can download it by clicking here. Microsoft has not Finalized on a release date, but Tactical Advantage will keep you posted.

Missle Command?...Can Ya Dig It Baby! - The Avault has released the demo for my favorite Atari 2600 game, Missle Command. This game was a classic, it didn't have the flair of a Donkey Kong or Chopper Command, but it was the kind of fun and hand-eye that help me become a better 3D shooter. Try it out, at least you won't have to break out the old consule and dust ( or Tape ) it. You can grab the demo by clicking here .

Sims Breaks Records..and More! - The Sims broke the Maxis sales record by beating out Sim City 3000 yesterday. The game has proven to be what most people expected and more, with the add-ons that have been released or are going to be. So why buy this game?, well I can truly give this game my full approval. I have never been a fan of simulation games, but the moment I bought this game I was hooked. For those of you that have bought it already, and might be looking for something new, check out The Sims Home Sitefor the latest updates.

Origin Closes Forums Due to Bad Game Design - Origin closed their forums recently because of all the negatives messages people were posting about their new game Ultima IX. I tried this game and it was one of the buggiest programs I have ever played. Needless to say, I exchanged it. If you would like to read the article about how bad Origin is doing, head over to C-Net and check it out.

Is Rogue Spear Dying? - Have you noticed a decline in people playing Rogue Spear? I have, what would cause this to happen? I have a few ideas which I am going to share with you. Do not get me wrong, Rogue Spear is a good game but it was not beta tested well, or thought through very well. Read on...

Serverside Disadvantage - This is when the host gets shot and his reticle jerks around and he loses control for a split second. This is very frustrating for the person hosting, and with the new addon coming from RSE, both server and client will have it. I understand RS is a realistic type of game, but sometimes you should sacrifice realism for gameplay, as in this case. I believe adding this feature to everyone will decrease the popularity of RS.

Death Shots - This is one of the worst implemented things in Rogue Spear. You have to be a good player to take people out with head shots, yet when people are killed in the game, they pull off amazing shots to the head on a regular basis. I have even shot people in the back, as they die they spin to the ground and when the spin points them at me, the gun fires and hits me in the head thus killing me. This happens far too often; it would be a lot better if the weapon just fired as they went down and did not aim right between your eyes.

Lag - There are many multiplayer games out there and all seem to have issues with lag. As much as I like RS, I get frustrated with the warping caused from lag. Lag does affect other games but I have never seen warping as bad as in RS.

Releasing Map Tools - Everyone knows how popular Half-Life and Quake are, and both allow users to create custom maps. This adds to the replay value of the game and lets the gaming community help the game grow; unfortunately RSE does support this belief. The current mod tools available for RS are just too limited when compared to some other tools for games like Half-Life.

Those are the four main problems with RS in my opinion. If these were fixed, I think Rogue would be the perfect game. Like I said, these are my opinions and are based on my gaming experiences.

It's Ok...You Can Kill The Hostages... - Ok here it is! The long awaited modification by Rodian, The Temporary Tango Mod has been released. Choosing from 12 Terrorist skins, and well...c'mon you get to be the Tangos! You gun down Rainbow operatives, you tell that spoiled princess to shaddup!, or cap her boyfriend. It's all good, just make sure you follow the terrorist rules, ( Terrorist rules you say? ) well yeah you can't just kill the Hostages and win straight off, that would be too easy. You can download it here.

Badlands will consist of Canyons and mze like territory adn Crossover will be a mix of open land and tight knit areas. Look for the update before summer.

Back To The Future! - Return to Castle Wolfenstein?...what's that? The sequel to Wolfenstein 3D. And it's in the works for release around Christmas 2000. For you kiddies that have never heard or Wolfenstein 3D, it's that 3D shooter that started it all, this generations PONG. It will incorperate the Quake III engine, and of course keep the fun loving, Nazi- shooting, bio-enginering action that was so well recived the first time. Id Games will be overseeing the project, but will leave the real stuff up to Gray Matter Interactive Studios ( makers of Redneck Rampage and Kingpin). Ahhh it's good to get back to our roots isn't it?

The Rumble Finds a New Look....and Home - The Rumble has recieved a major facelift from myself over the past few days. Not only that, but The Rumble now ranks Quake3, Unreal Tournamnet, and is currently taking applications for Team Fortress 2 teams. As always the Rogue Spear side of the Rumble is ever popular and is in full swing. In February The Rumble will be having two competitions, one is the MVP ShootOut (where the MVPs of each team battle the other MVPs on the ladder). The second competition is a King of the Rumble Contest, this is where teams compete for prizes. We plan on doing this as often as possible, hopefully once a month. The prizes will be announced later this week, and yes they will be good ones, I guarentee it...we now have corporate backing and can use that to reward the best teams out there. Hope to see you at The Rumble soon.
