I pleased to see that you've all got together and are talking a lot, forming intresting ideas. That's nice. Do you actualy have any... you know... coders at all? :lol: People like EA can employ people who work in a more conceptual way, because they also employ programmers. In the fan community, wher...

I'm guessing beno was joking... all those moons ago...

Of course, in 2007, all you need is an unsecured wireless point.... how anyone gets ID'd on the net these days is beyond me.

Oh, no problem. I'm sure IV will happily give you a copy of uplink based on the fact that you say that you bought it. No, wait - that wouldn't work. Contact IV here and tell them your story. Be aware that they are almost certainly going to want proof that you purchased it before they even consider g...

I think the point my dear friends are trying to make is that we can't help you. If you bought the game legaly, and you don't have a code-card, then contact the people you bought it from, or, failing that, IV. You can do that here. . We arn't allowed to give you a code card, because we don't know for...

I'm guessing Pte. ToRm's gone to prepare for Operation Persian Freedom...

Strange. If everyone is still here, why are these forums so quiet?

That was on the old forums. Do we still have an archive of that thread? It was before my time, but I'm sure I've seen it...

As much as I enjoy freaking the n00b's, I should point out (for those who can't read) that Deepsmeg is one of the forums oldest vets and is extracting the Michael.

Things calmed down a lot when Uplink went onto steam. The forum had moved past the "PLZ HELP WID LEVEL!!11!!!1!" stage for a while, since the game was established and the forum wasn't realy about the game anymore. Without meaning to be rude, when the n00bs turned up again, everyone de-bunk...

The black cloth around the neck is to prevent the carotid artery being ripped open by the rope. He was hung, and well hung (no pun intended). The hangman positioned the knot in such a way as to break his neck when he dropped - he didn't choke to death. I would quite like to know where they got a ski...

Hmm... yeah. Not 100% in favour of executing anyone if it can be avoided, but what realy annoys me is the way the media report this. I've heard "was executed for crimes against humanity" too often today, when that's a very specific offence that can only be brought forward by the Internatio...

You need litestep, my son.

I don't think anyone has made an uplink skin yet, so just grab a skin with the right layout and modify it. It's bitmap based.

Loads of old games used to have secret "panic buttons", but big developers like EA don't bother with cheats that they can't sell in guide books these days. I can't remember the game, but there was one I used to play that had a full fake spreadsheet app that could be called up using F10, an...

You have to finish them in the right order if you want to get the best ending...

I know how to search. Teaching me how to search is pointless.

When I ask a question, I'd much rather be fed the information I want.
