Discussion

  • Orange Box Co-Operative Base Modification. (release thread)
    • Original Comment: On the subject of co-op, I’d love to hear opinions (especially from developers, coders in particular) on the OBCO (Orange Box Co-Operative Base) SDK. How’s the quality on this SDK and are we likely to see a lot more co-op mods now because of it? I imagine it’s probably harder to shoe-horn into existing mods, but for new mods starting up it sure sounds promising. – Rog
    • Tips on the pros and cons of using the Co-op Base for a new mod could also be useful.
  • The Success of Multiplayer Communities.
    • Original Comment: Oh! A reaccuring theme on this show is Multiplayer games losing players. This happens for the many reasons you have discussed (again and again, both the fault of us, the consumer, as well as the developers) but Insurgency still has a huge following. This could be because of steamworks, even though Diprip (whatever its called) has steamworks and only has like 2 Finns who play it still, or you could say its because its original and good. Really good. We all have played this, I’m sure, and we all know about it, so what do you think sets it apart, and keeps its community alive? I would love to see more developers Take notes from the professionalism of the Ins team. – HiroProtagonist
