Title: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: Moshman on 2005-08-25, 06:38 I was screwing off in quake 3, tried to load up 50 bots on nightmare into one level. It kicked me. I went into the console to see what the error was Which was server command overflow. Here is what I got in the console that baffled me.
I didn't type these, those messages just came up. Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: Lopson on 2005-08-25, 12:24 That nick... is that Slash or Crash? Never saw such nick with bots. Very odd. And what's with the german?

Post by: Phoenix on 2005-08-25, 14:59 Washu: What you're seeing is bot exit chat that's being dumped next to your name because the server's text buffer overflowed and didn't properly terminate the strings, and it got lumped together. The most I've been able to spawn on a map so far in a local game without getting booted with an error is about 16 bots on MpTerra3. I've not tested the limit for a dedicated server yet.
Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: games keeper on 2005-08-25, 18:10 the only kind of chat easter eggs is when you use sombody of the creators there name . sometimes the bots willsay something about it.
Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: scalliano on 2005-08-25, 18:51 I think back to that night on the Euro server when there were about 20 bots before the server went into meltdown and kicked us all off :ninja:

Too bad I can't get that type to work with gen.Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg?

They respond to some statements in certain ways, too. I once got Doom to say he wanted nachos. :D Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: Lopson on 2005-08-26, 10:04 They used to speak more in 1.0. Don't know why they took off the bots chat-lines
Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: Phoenix on 2005-08-26, 20:53 I think because some people thought the bots were TOO chatty, and didn't frag enough. What's even funnier is talking to the Gladiator bots for Q2. One example:
Phoenix ate Demigoddess's rocket. Phoenix: Kiss my cloaca! Demigoddess: God you're horny. Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: Moshman on 2005-08-27, 14:13 Talk to crash, it is creepy. I said "I will delete your file!" and it said something to the degree, "You won't be doing any "deleting' soon"
Title: Re: Quake III Easter Egg? Post by: Tabun on 2005-08-27, 14:51 Yet I don't think any kind of game-bot will pass a Turing test any time soon ;]
