Here's where we'll post any demos from the .99f version of Generaitons Arena.  I've already got two demo packs from our release party.  If you couldn't make it, here's a good look at what you missed:

gen_99f_demopack1.zip
gen_99f_demopack2.zip
gen_99f_demopack3.zip

I recorded some, and Kain recorded some, and Makou some as well.  Unzip to your "generations" folder, it will create the demos directory for you if one does not exist.  Then load up Generations Arena, select Demos, and watch the action!

Any Screenies going up from the demos?
Just wondering.

And some demos from the (Euro) Strogg vs Earth Team DM night:

Including:

- Frantic fragging on Sainttourney2. Very frantic. Very.
- Dead simple Tab & alu vs up to 6 others, and winning a bit.
- Alu & Scalliano vs. Kingu & LordBane battling 2on2 in q3dm14 and The Edge (spectator demos)
- Tab handicapped balancing a close Iron Yard match.

ggs people, excelling fraggin' this week!

As much as some people will probably hate me for this, I currently refuse to put a Doom vs. {insert class here} game in the poll at the moment, with or without techs enabled. That would wind up with everybody trying to get on the Doom team, and anybody not on the Doom team would be frustrated as all getout.

If you really want it that badly, you can callvote dmflags and genflags on both Euro and Central. A lof of people forget about that...

And if you don't know what a dmflag or genflag is ->

However, when 1.0 comes around, assuming I'm still running the custom game nights, that week will automatically be Doom vs. Slipgate TDM. That's a grudge match that just has to happen, but not until some physics issues are fixed and balance questions have been answered -- a battle that will be that heated needs to on as level a playing field as possible, and right now, because of messed up jump physics, even Earth can easily outrun Slipgate (unless your name is Tabun).

So stick around, it will happen... eventually.

That was the opinion of many people a few months ago. There are a few really simple things that should help to balance it out a bit, primarily the weapon animations -- that'll slow down Doom's weapon switching, which right now, is just as fast as Arena's and can really allow someone who knows the class to rip things up with ease.

But, one of the biggest reasons is Slipgate's kind of screwed up physics at the moment. For some reason, jumping as Slipgate causes the player to slow down. That's a big no-no where I come from.

Here are some demos from some April 29th matches, a bunch of people showed up.

There are 4 parts, personally, I like part 4 the best.

Here is the 4mb zip file.

if it doen't work try to copy the url to the adress bar. Thing's screwy like that sometimes.

Maybe someone can give me some playing tips. ;^)

I do concede that Doom's weapon switching is way too fast, but as a Doomer myself I find it ironic that on Wednesday night I almost won Q1DM1 as Slippy. I was beaten by 1FRAG which is unusual for me. One of the most intense games I've had in a long time
