I've had the game since 2001. I only played online once every month or so with our awesome 56k, so didn't see much of the community. I didn't really get into the whole online scene until I finally got DSL, which was around april 2004.

Dont think this makes me one of the 'old school' players, though. 8)

I remember the good ol' days when this game had quite a number of clans, and there was always constant competition between them, and therefore much funs. This game would be much more interesting today with that type of atmosphere around.

Aww.. Nostalgia. I can still remember my very first MvM game. Didn't most players pack back there (2004 or so)? I can't remember anyone shielding o.O

Haha! I remember when shielding was looked down upon by most of the community because anyone who kicked ass with it was obviously cheating. :P

Well yeah.. but I was just hoping that the version 7 script could be changed to work under 9, as its not compatible beyond version 7.

Unfortunately, I never got into a tournament since I started playing just before the last tournament the community had. If you want any updates on tools like the 3dmax plug in, you need to get in contact with SSJBardock.

He's the one that made the plug in. Doubtful that he would readily have a fix though.

Hello everybody! I'm new to this forum, I just registered today.
I've been watching this community for a while and right now i managed to join.

I've bought Giants at the time it came out on PC: the exact day. I still have the original box and the game's still installed on my PC. Sometimes I like to play it, sometimes I like standing on its Hills on top watching sun and the infinite, blue ocean. Sometime I like laughing at its cutscenes and sometimes i like to fly with the greatest jectpack in videogame history.
I love this game.

Hello everybody.
