'= wrote:H[=TangFiend;1321660']It's more of a cult i think than an addiction. I'm constantly trying to push RL people into playing telling them to buy BF2 and get the mod.

Anybody else do this? It's a tough sell they watch some gameplay videos and regurgitate some common line like.

"The graphics in Modern Warfare are way better this looks crappy"

Nobody gets it.
yeah thats me right there, I always bug my friends to get bf2.

But they always say it has crappy graphics.

What, addicted to BF 2 MOD. Actually, it's good, cause now if go playing there's at least one player on the servers. There usually is more.

Well none of Rudd's work is in the mod yet, apart from him helping with testing etc :p

Think there is a topic somewhere round here explaining what each tag is but can't find it right now, but basically an R-CON is someone who dose a bit of work on the side or someone who is basically working towards being a DEV and an R-DEV is someone who dose the bulk of the development :p

Doesnt mean a little change he made got into .91 for example right?
so he could still be right for thanking him.

Else he got a thank you for his awesomeness i guess

None of my work is in PR except for the colour of the Flares that were orginally made by teh Combined arms team :P

Though I did my best to help out while I work on my own projects, but I'm sure leeroy meant he was trying to thank the PR team as a whole :)

Rhino and his like are of extraordinary talent and dedication, getting a glimpse in to the inner workings of the team you soon get a new appreciation of how hard these guys work to give us all a game we love for free.

Been there done that too.

As you, I was once hopelessly addicted to PR.

One approach that might help you, is to stop playing PR, uninstall.

Can recommend stop playing the game for six months or more.

At some point in my addictive PR period, i decided to try and use it to my benefit. So i began deploying interest in a specific part of the game -and step by step, over a few years, that i would have used on playing the game anyway, turned that interest, into useful real-life knowledge.

Today i still use that experience from PR in different parts of the so called real life.
