Anyone still play stock?

Ducimus · 11-21-06, 11:14 PM

Maybe the tinkering/modding bug is grabbing me by the nuts again, but for awhile now ive had this urge to tear it all down and go back to the basics, incorporating only real bug fixes. A sort of unoffical patch.

I know there are some folks that ive read who still prefer the original game (and many more who simply never could go back to the orginal game

) So im just fielding the question to see if theres enough people who play stock to merit any bugfix compilation effort.

I play stock now and then, but only because that's the only way I can get peeps to play multiplayer.

I played one patrol whilst downloading the GWX beta, and I am never going back to that.

LOL. I know the feeling. What i had in mind was, again, just fixing the the stuff that was broke. The idea being to leave the orginal "gamey" game intact.

I played a patrol after making a fresh re-install. I hadn't even installed any patches at the point.

All I can say now that I've played the patched version with mods is... Wow. In a bad way.

The worst part is that I've played the unpatched version a lot before I finally upgraded. And I loved the game. Just... Wow.

No, I don't play stock. Never again.

I can;t think of a reason why you would. The two super mods and most of the other mods have made the experience so much more engaging than stock. Not going back unless on the way to installing a new super mod! Waiting patiently for GWX

Why on earth would anyone play vanilla when there is such lovely flavoured topping .

P_Funk · 11-22-06, 02:59 AM

Look at my sig and tell me what you think.

Ducimus · 11-22-06, 04:02 AM

LOL ok i think its pretty clear. I won't waste my time.

Samwolf · 11-22-06, 04:51 AM

I haven't played stock since Rub came out. The game just keeps getting better.

I really dont think what you are planning is a waste of time, there are lots of people playing stock, and if I were one of them I would love a bug-patch to go with the 1,4b.

The think is, in a thread like this all the mod-lovers will jump in and tell that they dont like the vanilla.

andy_311 · 11-22-06, 07:10 AM

I personnally don't think I would return to playing the stock game.
