NASTY SUSPICIOUS POST ALERT

i was just on biowares news pages, and they dont say _anything_ about either BG3 or and BG2 expansion. they dont even mention it as a posibility.

plus they have a no submissions policy, presumably to prevent people mailing in a huge list of suggestions and then asking for money when something similar gets into the game.

ill quote there section on what they are doing next:

Our next release, Neverwinter Nights, is probably our most ambitious project to date.

With Neverwinter Nights, we felt it was time to draw the computer role-playing genre even closer to its pen and paper roots. As a multiplayer game, it allows one player to direct the action as an all-powerful Dungeon Master, shepherding the other players through the adventure story. As a single player game, players are immersed in a challanging 3rd person adventure game. The user-friendly Neverwinter Toolset, the same tools that we use to design the single player modules, will allow gamers to create and share their own adventures

The next project on our drawing board allows us a new universe to play in. The Star Wars roleplaying game will be our first game for George Lucas' LucasArts Entertainment Company..

no mention of BG3 in there, is there.

draw your own conclusions.

note - anything is possible however.


floyd 10-29-2001 05:20 PM

there will be NO BG3. Please stop with the fantasies, Chala.

Chala 10-29-2001 05:43 PM

Ok....my boss is gone...man you guys are like dumb........ok 1st im in a hurry always here cause i get in trouble if i get caught fu**ing around on the internet when im supposed to be sitting here making a new patch....and finding bugs......oh yah...and about the website which one you talking about Bioware or Interplay?.......im getting ready to shag a$$ back home...then i will be able to actually read all your posts and not just cut & paste em into the possible stuff folder....oh yah win XP is great....wish i had it for home http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif maybe ill sneak the disc out....HEHE....wonder how much trouble ill get in....well lets NOT find out.....i actually read all...well most of your suggestions....and most were awsome....here is all the answers to the questions i can member off the top of my head


-------------------------------
Yes it will be 3d
NO we havent even started on Starwars plus im not even in on Starwars cause im pretty much doing this series.....and maybe later on ill get involved in other ones
no we couldnt have a dragon summoning spell(cause it would make the game not eveb a chalenge)
the monk and fighter are fairly similar but i might think about putting the Moonostary as his stronghold.....
About Arie
---------------------------
i think there will be a quest where she will meet up with the people who cut her wings off and find them and then at the very end of the game.....if you happen to keep the wings....which i advise you to.....you can take em to some healer dude and he willput em back on then she can cast spells from the air http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif maybe

About the location
-----------------------

I think i will make it in Thay
If you guys know nothing and dont know where Thay is Thay is the place on the sword coast where all of the Wizards were 1st born...

About the 7th party member

this would again make it too easy http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif


Speaking of party members......you will be able to have Bodhi in your group if your EVIL and many other people from BG1

And we cant really have a neutral quests specifficaly for nuetral
cause it will
1)make the game......well nothing really i dont see why we cant....ill look into it http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

about the EVIL party

this time around now that you know your true potential.....
you will be able to turn into the Slayer from the very start
and since you are a spawn of Baal the dominating alliance will be EVIL
and we will have a quest that totally oblivarates Jaheria..oh yah when she dies Khalid comes back.....maybe

well thats pretty much all i member

im going home

ANOTHER NASTY SUSPICIOUS POST

chala, kindly explain to us dumb folks (your words) how come _you_ are going to set the new game in thay. and how come there is no mention of any of this on www.bioware.com. and how come someone who is involved in making a patch is asking for item/spell suggestions for the game. and how come asking for said suggestions is in direct violation of your companies policy on third party submissions.

not that im disputing your claims or anything, but ...


Chala 10-29-2001 06:15 PM

dude i told you already that it aint on the site because it just now got approved today.....and i didnt mean to call ALL of you dumb only a select few...

and plus it aint on there cause it just got apporved by our council by approved i mean YES its a good idea and YES it will make us a bunch of money

and i am asking foor suggestions cause i am clueless for spells and items cause there are already a item that does pretty much everthing

and i want it in Thay cause we havent been there yet!

Melusine 10-29-2001 06:20 PM

I think I saw this Chala guy over at D2.Net. He is what is called a "TROLL!!!"

You can safely pay him no mind. He is one of those, with lack of anything important or meaningful to say, makes things up, trying to stir up the community.

Chala, u r ae moeron. Ples lern 2 speel guud. Wi r alll syc uv yor stoopid postes thet maks noe cense.

Think up something that contributes to the game, that is what this forum is here for. Otherwise, shove off!

Wah 10-29-2001 07:35 PM

I had the same conclusions.............why would Bioware - a top ranking games company who can conjour up complexities - heart throbbing quests and conversations - be having a programmer who can't even spell?http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/rolleyes.gif

And would anyone with programming expertise actually TEST this troll to see if he has ANYTHING.

i could. but i cant be bothered. however, there is an easier way.

Bioware supposedly employs chala, who apparently is involved at some stage with the making of patches. given his spelling this could explain a few things, but it also means that chala shoudl be able to answer this quite simply:

give us, in C , the complete struct that describes the PC.

it should be in one of the main .h files. the correct answer will be in correct C format, and will contain a complete description of the structure used by the game ot keep track of the PC, including status effects, hp, name, class, point in his initiaitve round, and probably pointers to structs holding similar data on his weapons and armour.

since he _could_concievably have enough knowledge to fake this, and obviously i do not have access to the original, also give us:

a file format description of dialogue.tlk this file, as u should know, contains pointers to sound files and all the text in the game. i want to know how it fits together. i know a site that has this information on it, so i will be checking.

ah l33t sp33k, the "language" invented by hackers to disguise the fact that theyr fecking idiots. a true hacker uses the standard ascii char set in the way it was intended. they dont need to feel better by simple letter substitution. anyway, it provides zero security.

the translation reads:

since you oviously have no idea what you are talking about ....... about really i Guess i will have to explain in detail.......to a newber like yourself i am what you call a hacker..........if you don't believe me then i will be more than happy to face your cheecsy ass !!!!!!!!!!!!

as every one can see, this bastard still cant spell. and leet speek does not make a hacker. god i hate leet speek, specialy this american dialect of it.

and "newber"? thats just wrong. since no legit person would ever respond like this, i am tempted to launch an attack on yahoo.com to get his r/w location, and then his telecoms to get his address, and then himself to get, well some less trolls in the world i suppose.

however there would be no real gain, trolls are to prevalent. couldd memnoch/ziroch just ban this git please?

floyd 10-29-2001 08:55 PM

yep, please ban him. this fool has no place at IW.

Barloc 10-29-2001 08:56 PM

I saw this some other opinions too (memnoch i think), but heres my opinion, this guy doesnt seem real. i dont know why, just seems kinda fishy

Barloc 10-29-2001 08:58 PM

wait nevermind, i got to lazy to read the last page so i didnt see the chala post

Ares 10-29-2001 09:20 PM

Kaleban your friggin cool, and Chala...your just a dumb motherfu**er who cant spell and you are also a dumb poser so just go get it on with your goldfish or somethin.

Kaleban 10-29-2001 09:44 PM

Thanks Ares.

I will say though that people like Chala at least give the intelligentsia of the world a goal, and that is simply the eradication of conditions that create people like Chala. Better public schooling, more tolerance of nation, culture, and ideas, and perhaps just a little brotherly love are the things all people, not just Americans need, especially now.

Chala's post not only demeans the value of ASCII (and consequently the elite hackers who have done some real nasty stuff) but also points to his childlike, and simplistic way of dealing with criticism and disbelief. And that is to lash out, or throw a tantrum if you will. Perhaps Chala needs a time-out...?

andrewas 10-29-2001 09:49 PM

no, cala dosent need a "time-out". what he needs is a good skelping to teach him the error of his ways. unfortunatley my current computing power and bandwidth are insufficient to locate him.

and you cant negotiate with him, cos he wont read posts and wont listen to anyone. trust me, ive dealt with his kind before. he dosent really consider us people - just words on his screen that he can infuriate. his mindset is so narrow and twisted im actually impressed that he could learn enough about BG to make his earlier posts seem almost plausible. maybe there is hope for thi one, but im no inclined to find out. just ban him quick.

And as far as TOO MANY CLASSES GO, Yes there was too many fighter classes, and too many palidin classes and thief classes and mage classes, but they enabled people to choose a class that better fit thier personality..So whats wrong with that? BUT EVIL CLERICS ONLY HAD ONE yes count them ONE http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/noncgi/smiles/mad.gif God to choose from and a lame god at that. Or you could be a follower of the all powerfull NO-NAME and receive no benefits other than being able to cast cleric spells.

Chala, I was waiting for you to hang yourself, and you did. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no.../1orglaugh.gif You didn't seriously expect us to believe that you worked for Bioware, did you? http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/rolleyes.gif At least try to sound intelligent so you have half a chance of pulling it off without looking like an idiot.

In any case, I asked both David Gaider and Kevin Martens, the Senior and Lead Designers for the Baldurs Gate series, if there were any more Infinity Engine games in the pipeline and the answer was NO. Bio's future is in the Aurora engine. Also, Thay is not on the Sword Coast, it's inland, near Mulhorand. Do your research first.

Finally, trolls, flamebaiters and hacker wannabes are not allowed here. If you are only interested in trolling, the door's that way and don't let it hit you on the way out. Your IP has been logged and your ISP will be notified if you continue with this nonsense.

I'm locking this thread now. Fellas, next time you see a troll - don't feed it! They thrive on attention. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif
