kungfubellydancer Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Did I mention I also loved Quake 2? Has anyone else ever played it? I think I may have mentioned I did some modding for it. I also did alot of skinning and made a team for us, KatGothiK, in which we used the default female model, except I made all the skins (basically, cat girls wearing Gothic costumes) complete with cat sounds. I played Quake 2 from 1997 to 2007. I can tell you where most 95% of all secrets/easter eggs are. Yes, I loved it enough to play it over and over for 10 years, call me ultra old-fashioned nerd. Here's a question for long-time gamers: does anyone still get "gibbed" and earn "frags" anymore? What are the modern terms?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are the modern terms??I happen to own QII on N64, but I'm completely clueless to the PC game :wacko: And an ultra-old fashioned nerd is one who still plays "Pong" :P but yeah, it's nice to play the old games every now and again lol BTW, I still think being "gibbed" and "fragged" are standard usage today lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddycashmercury Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Yeah, I've played Quake 2. I was about 8 years old at the time, but I beat it. Never did much multiplayer stuff, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninja_lord666 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Here's a question for long-time gamers: does anyone still get "gibbed" and earn "frags" anymore? What are the modern terms??Now maybe it's just because I'm not big on FPS games, or online play, but I haven't heard people say those, especially 'gibbed'. I don't even know what 'gibbed' means.

kungfubellydancer Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Well, gibbed means when a person or entity explodes into guts and pieces after their health drops negative. In Quake 2 for example, when health drops below -38 you explode into meaty chunks, or "gib". In FEAR, I don't know the health points, but say an enemy has 10 hp. If I shoot him with two shotgun shells, each taking 6 hp off, his health will hit -2 and will then he will "gib." But bullets would take away 1 hp, so I'd hit him with 10 bullets and he'll die but not gib because his health is at 0. Make sense? In some games you can gib after death, some you can't (whey they die, they die, you can't take more health away). If I kill you in multiplayer, then I get a frag (point). I like fragging (killing in multiplayer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramul Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 One of the more unusual kills in Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory involves a flamethrower or Molotov cocktail and enough explosive damage to blow the person who's on fire apart. The result is a pile of flaming gibs. Goomba kills also seem to be an auto-gib, although this doesn't really make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even know what 'gibbed' means.Don't post if you don't know what the subject matter is about, esp if you know full well that people are gonna kick your butt for it afterwards :P Posting like this only makes people assume you're a post angel, you POST angel! :P Anyway, yes, as KungFu already pointed out, 'gibbing' occurs when on is exploded by a rocket, or anything else explosive. The term has been around for quite some time, but since you're too young to know, then i have nothing more to say to you, POST angel! :P I should also mention a multiplayer tactic referred to as 'rocket jumping'. It revolves around the use of a rocket launcher aimed at the ground, and when you go to jump, you fire off a rocket, and the blast from the rocket will make you jump much higher than usual. It is quite a difficult manoeuvrer, esp if one is using grenades to achieve the same effect. KTHNXBAI! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is quite a difficult manoeuvrer, esp if one is using grenades to achieve the same effect. There's actually a secret I found in Quake 2 that is only accessible through rocket jumping. It is on the level with the black hole generator (big warping white rings thing). It is possible to see the secret from the side, but you can't fit between the wall and the platform, and the platform is too high for conventional jumping, so I rocket jumped there and found the secret. Also, there's a secret that is completely inaccessible unless you use noclip. This is in the level with where there are lots of human slaves and iron maidens, and you must retrieve the commander's head. By flying through the wall into one of the rooms with the slaves, you can see a message written on the glass in blood, and you also get code pop-up message. Weird.
