MSC is some sort of bizarro world where Trolls and Ogres have swapped traditional physiologies.

(Or, more accurately, we got our the green troll model after the old ogre model had already been labeled 'troll', and put under the script header 'troll', and now that we have something that actually looks like a troll, it's just way too much trouble to go back and swap the scripts, and then change the scriptfiles in every map that uses them - thus 'ogre' is now 'troll' - and welcome to bizarro world.)

Actually, it is. "Shahaddar Lightning Djinn" - but I figured it was a mouth full for the post. :p

Shad Palace has both varieties...

...If the wiki were still alive, I'd point to it and say that Djinn's can be Trolls, Ogres, or anything else a Wizard or Shaman can tame well enough to stick an Elemental into - but alas...

Not just that, ya sod. There's plenty of other things like that. Like the whole Ice Djinn Ji-Ax thing you never yielded to me on :wink:

There's no lack of consistency there - just a lack of self-cloning. :p

'sides, I said ye could make an alternate summon model if you were so desperately inclined, but ye never did.

Although, thanks to Little-G, IIRC..

We do have an "Ogre" Ice Djinn, now. An Ogre would likely be a bit mean for that level though - plus the added mobility would make him likely to cliff himself. Ji-Ax is mean enough for around level 25 as it is. ;)

But like I said, you can stick an elemental into anything. Maybe even a fire elemental into a boar...

...if you were so inclined. ;)

Yeah, MS:C is great and I've started about 2 weeks ago. I'd like to see more people play rather than the normal 6-12 I see daily.

Btw JM remember this?

Here.
All we gotta do is put some effort into the development and it'll spread over all HL1 players. (about 30 or 50 :mrgreen: )
I'm still up to create both, MSC and MS:S textures for ye guys.
Just contact me via email, or even better, FPSBanana.

Eh, MSS would be the exception to the rule. They can recruit here all they like.

I found MSC to be a nice experience for a new player. I was worried because I had a 33 fencer lan char and I was like "OMG if I go to FN ill has to starts all over!!!" But then I quit being a baby and made my FN char and in no time (no time= mindless hours spent killing shad remains) here I am a level 35 Titan!!! Great work Thothie it was really an experience building up from the bottom again and having to actually worry about ferocious boars and such (lol) I like the community (except zun)
and always have fun playing. Except for this strange MSC phenomena I keep coming across where large groups of people seem to enjoy standing around talking in the game rather than actually going to play/kill things, I really dont get that and it happens pretty frequently. (that is what chat rooms are for people) LETS PLAY MSC!!!

As a new player that's still downloading the beta pack package, I have to say this is endless fun even in singleplayer so far! Thanks for the great game, recruiting my friends.

Raider, a lot of the community has been here a long time (I myself have been on the forums for just under 5 years but I've been playing Master Sword longer than that) so a lot of people know a lot of people (if that makes sense?) oftenly, after a map has been run or someone wants to pop to Helena for mana pots or to use storage, people will just stand around and talk for a while. This game has a small but strong community imo.

Well yeah, the "chat" happens normally after we beat a map with either decent loot or it was a hard/long map to beat. We normally start discussing on what's balanced/unbalanced in this game and what would be better to expect in future patches, other than that, the chat can sometimes go "offtopic" and it never ends :wink:
