I installed AQ2 the other day everything is fine except that i miss my old paks with modified huds menu conchars weapon skins etc.
I tried to google it but it seems like most sites are down or deleted.
I found nothing.
Anyway, im 100% sure i got my old aq2 folder installed at a computer at my moms house so i think i can get my old paks back.

While im writing this post im thinking maybe its time to gather all of the aq2 communites players paks on the same place and make a archive.
There must be atleast 100+ different types of menus,huds,conchars combinations out there.

The only decent site i can find is http://marlporo.pp.fi/aq2/ but i want more...

I know there is more out there, It is just a pain in the ass to find.

Jeez, just watching a screenshot of AQ2 makes me wanna make some jumps and get multiple shots with an M4 on some grunt.

Why is AQ2 so freaking unique, everything you play nowadays feels encapsulated and in some ways even handicapping your own capabilities to make it "playable". Feck it, AQ2 was just what it was, but you were able to do all you wanted -considering it a game, and that may be the point.

So how's the community going on in the old country?
Nowadays I only play some L4D2 and newer games just blow, come on, that MOHAA Beta can't be serious. CoD with no recoil, really?

(This probably belongs to another forum/topic/whatever, but what the hell, I won't bother, there's no admin anyways... isn't it Clowne?)

Kids can't take recoil, or friendly fire, or old school maps, or 5v5+ Highlander Ironman, or... oh whatever.

Hiya Cara!

I thought you were the one who couldn't take recoil, moncho. Harr.

And what's with all the bloody rewards that invade your hud just for the simple fact you got a headshot, or a double kill. I was never a big fan of "accuracy" or "impressive" (but having Starcraft sounds made them way funnier), but now by getting a kill while crouched you get badges and prices and what not... even experience points... FPS with experience points! Gosh.

Achievements are fun, like killing a witch with one headshot (L4D) and such, but feck off with all your bloody awards!

Sabotage... did you ever shoot back? Don't really recall...
