I was reading a friend's blog and noticed the previous post was titled "Adventures with Guns in a Third Person Shooter" and took a look. It's by an Uber dev and is an interesting read about the challenges of aiming in a third person shooter, with special appearances by the Tank and Sniper, and an explanation of how they fixed the problem of shooting through geometry. Worth a read. And nice article, Forrest, if you happen to read this.

No not really, mate. I still regularly check the forums and will be back to check out any updates/dlc. I just got a bit tired of the same levels/gameplay/lag/etc and am working on a personal programming project in my spare time and trying to devote time to that. I may well jump on for a nostalgic blast over the weekend. Might see you on there if I do.
