I've been doing lots of woodcutting recently. I'm probably going to take a break but it was a good skill to train, especially on mobile because it's pretty afk.

I hope you guys get what you want and enjoy the next chapter in your life, whether it's a levels, apprenticeships or something else. Good luck.

17 minutes ago, IrishChamp said:@Skeff what about Mark? When did he leave? This story was cool but I need closure!!!
My bad, I'm not great at finishing stories.
@Markannable left Outbreak in early 2013, a little after I became a member. We still talked to each other occasionally throughout the college year and a little into my first year at uni but since Mark wasn't really interested in Counter Strike we haven't talked in a few years. I hope he is doing well.

When i started my second year at colleage I met a first year on the bus called Mark. We talked about computing as we were both studying it and the conversation moved to video games. We both played Counter Strike: Source and Mark suggested I check out the gaming community he was a member of. That community was Outbreak.
Not long after this I joined the Jailbreak server that Mark told me about but I had never played Jailbreak before and quickly left as I didn't understand it.
About a month later Mark told me the community was starting a Surf server, which he knew I liked. I became a regular on the Surf server but noticed more players were on the Jailbreak so I decided to give it another chance.
Once I became a regular on both servers I applied for membership status. After a week trial I was accepted.
Over 5 years later, many different games and game servers, plenty of different players I am still here. I'm happy to see the community has grown with waves of players and I hope we can continue to do so in the future with the move to discord and a variety of different games.

This is a great thread, hopefully I'll come back in 1, 5 and 10 years to compare hopes and dreams to reality.
1 year. I hope to have gained a pay rise at my current job and potentially look at joining a gaming company instead of working on business software.
5 years. If all goes well with my girlfriend I would like to be engaged and thinking about marriage soon. I would have at least tried a few years in the games industry and I hope that I'd still be making games.
10 years. I would like to be married with a few kids. For my job I'd hopefully have a good programming speciality which I could expand as a consultant later on in life. Possibily in games but the pay isn't as good when you're getting older.

I really enjoyed and played a lot of the the original mod. I've had the standalone game for a while but I haven't really played much. Hopefully making it free, even for a short period, will boost the number of active players.

I've had a few years of fuck ups since this thread originally went live. One fuck up was when I bashed my car into a people carrier. I hadn't been driving for long at that point and I was so scared what might happen. In the end nothing really happened, I just have a little dent in my car as a memory of that day.

It's mad that we're approaching 300 pages in this thread. Even more so when you remember we got bumped from 10 to 15 posts per page a few years ago.

Fair play. I'd hope people would donate to any server that serves the community.

You're right. There is a little wriggle left.

This was actually a pretty good guess. Hopefully we'll close TS when it is released on IOS

It's great to see us join together, with another community we've known for a while, for an event. I wish all participants good luck in winning.

Discord?
in Outbreak VOIP Server's
Posted
So we're just going to continue to stagnate just because a few people value Teamspeak over Outbreak? The community needs to take some kind of step towards change and discord is a perfect platform for us to do that.
