Now, I’m no way a neotokyo fan, but: can you use that knife to … knife your oponent? I’ll even push this more: I don’t want to see on my knife “Solingen – Made in Switzerland”. I just want to stab players with it.

The players that enjoy the gameplay of the mod will stick with it, regardless of weapon aspect. They will form the hardcore community for it. The people who like it for graphics will play it, and move on to the next generation engine and it’s games/mods when they become available.

about releasing mods as they are finished: there are 2 mod developers 1: the y know what’s good and they make it like this, and it’s almost perfect but really need some tweaking (like nt)
2: the developers are not quite sure of things, and want to relesa the early beta version, to get some opinions about is.

nobody looks the gun skins? are u fuckin serous? have you seen fpsbanana? it’s basiccly a fuckin skinbase, and ppl are fuckin tired looking on the retard css knife and sleeves.

Btw, I uninstalled NeoTokyo 1 and a half our of play, I gave it a 10/10 but I disliked the gamemode(due to sitting out when dying), however it’s now been pretty much confirmed my 9 weeks vacation has started and NeoTokyo keeps spooking through my mind so I’m redownloading it again and just hope I don’t die too much or get too addicted(I do still have to work on FragOut :P)

@DuckSauce: You bring up a very valid point – releasing the server files first is of the upmost importantance…unfortunately, not too many mod developers know the major differences between server files and client files, and which one needs what.

Hmm I’m halfway accross the podcast and reading some comments here.
The advice I’ve missed(might be my fault as I’m doing stuff while listening) is that NeoTokyo made sure to besides the hyping to release the server files up front, you can hype your mod all your want but if at release there is only 1 or 2 or even 0 servers then most people are gonna uninstall and never get back to it again, so yeah besides hyping I’d say it’s a damn good advice for a multiplayer mod to release the server files up front so you’ll have enough servers to accomodate the players.

@Player1: Yes sorry, there was a latency issue and it degraded the quality of sound. Hopefully it doesn’t get on anyones nerves.

@stency: Wow. Congrats on a successful experiment :P If more mods followed this routine they could easily become as popular as NeoTokyo. If NeoTokyo brought just one thing to the modding table I believe that thing would be a perfect example of public relations work. I did not know you were behind most of it; and now that I know that, I can honestly say that you stency, even indirectly, were the most important member of the NeoTokyo team.

@Tatsur0: No problem dude. Good mods deserve good press. Congrats on a successful release.

I also extend my congrats to the entire NeoTokyo team.
