In Response To: Re: Rubicon Rating in Arkives (Rincewind MoG)

: Hah! Take that, Frigidman!

What really makes me mad are the following things:

People saying Rubicon is buggy when they play the AO version... Ok, wow, sounds like engine bugs to me? Try playing a newer version of AO and then report the bugs to em, AO roxors- but M:R should be played on what we made it on, Infinity :(

Through testing I would randomly play in the AO engine, but it was so buggy I gave up most of the time.

"Flow sucks." Flow rocks- since the Rubicon team hates ALL of you, we want to make your head explode trying to figure out how to beat various things. Flow sucks on purpose! :) kidding kidding. But really, Rubicon's entire point was the level's lack of lineararity (word?)- you're abibility to ignore Durandal and explore- it might lead you to a different plank! Speaking of which, any scenario that works in 3 different planks almost seamlessly has good flow.

"terminal text too long on vacuum levels, how am I supposed to read it all?" you're not. get over it. I mean really, the only vacuum levels with long terminal text were the dream levels with Kate. Terminals which we repeat later on because we know no one can read them here.

Ok, those are my replies to the bad coverage.

Finally, what I think makes it all better, M:R was hailed as awesome by a ton of video game reviewers who do reviews professionally for things like IMG and MacAddict.

Since I was in a coma, would someone also do a synopsis on what happeaned after M:Rs release in these forum and agm circles? Seems like there was some heated debate then.
