If Dust looked shite, if it was nothing but single-textured boxes in the layout-shape, would you like it? Detail is second to how a map plays, detail doesnt distract --> it adds to the ambience, its immersion, thus its playability goes ^

You could make any show sound stupid like that ZL :lol:

Yes the show is completely odd, unlikely and impossible, thats what i love about it, escape from reality. You all know there is a deeper meaning to the show/ the island. There are many Religious/spritual sides to it, ideas about life and lifes meaning.

So detail distracts people from shooting? That aint right. Xyos212, do it remake it, id play it, an industrial setting though...? If its snowing/snowed under yeah definately do it.
BTW Strider I liked your other Avatar better. It was much more pwn
Ill just keep changing it, get sick of staring at one for so long.

The gameplay in fy_iceworld definately was fun, the graphics werent. I beleive its worth the upgrade if you can make it look puuurty, add some verticle action too, like being able to get on top of the structures.

If you dont like the show please dont post, its just pointless, this thread was intended for people who like the show to discuss it, post anything interesting they find etc. Now its just filled with critics saying they find it boring! Again if you find it boring DONT post! Simple.
Though i never got around how they could survive a plain water landing, jet engines aint no using hydro runways of 20.000 feet.
The survivors should be dead, its supposed to be odd that way. One of the characters himself said that they shouldnt of survived with the minimal injuries they had. Its a supernatural mystery among many other things (dont say boring!).

Also go to this site:
http://www.oceanic-air.com/seatingchart.htm
click on seat numbers like 4 8 15 16 23 42 (the numbers) to get interesting 'things' popup, find all the characters seats.

I wouldnt call it predictable, what tries and tested elements are you talking about, the plot is quite original.

Holy Crap! Browsing around this site:
http://emri.perception.net/?player=qt&extra=&enter=no
I found (as many have) the interactive LOST computer, where the numbers must be entered every 108 mins. If you type in things such as MUSIC and GAME you will be presented with them, type the numbers in when the timer reaches 4 mins to reset the computer.

Type in Hello to get a response, you will be asked questions like 'Who are you' 'Why are you typing at this computer' etc.
I replied 'I am a crash survivor' and it said 'Your a crash Survivor? Yeah right, whatever'. I asked 'What is the purpose of this Island' and it replied 'Are you even taking your injections?'

I asked 'What are the Injections for?' and it came up with an animation with the text "Nearly 2 months we survived here, 2 months before..." and just sat there idle. You can ask several questions such as 'What is Dharma' etc. There are tonnes of clues just waiting to be found, can anyone else find any? Its obvious how prepared this site is but its fascinating...

The Polar Bears!...
Some possible explanations as to why the polar bears (theres been 2 on the show) may be there.

1) Walt some how 'conjured' them up much as he did that exotic bird in his flashback. He was reading a comic book with polar bears in it when his dad (Michael) angrily tossed it in the fire, also his dad gave him a plush polar bear toy when he was really young. Walt is definately gifted somehow.

2) Station 3 ('The Swan' where the hatch leads to) is described as a Electromagnetic station, setup to investigate the unusual electromagnetics of that part of the island, meaning the island could be acting as a minor earth-magnetic pole, hence attracting or giving reason for polar bears to propagate there (this is an obvious long shot though).

3) The polar bears are there as an experiment by 'the others' whom as said in the Orientation film are/were doing studies into zoology, and 2 polar bears can be seen in that film...
Really makes you think dont it?

Lost is a horribly boring show. Not to mention it's pretty unrealistic.
People! If you dont like the show dont post!! :zonked:

Boring? I dont know, its more mysterious and its definately building up tension. Unrealistic? Nearly everything happening on the island is unrealistic, unusual or abnormal - it's supposed to be.

Please avoid flaming, posting useless, annoying, pathetic arguments or Porn.

I personally think the entire Island is some sort of weapon. According to the Orientation footage there are 5 stations on the island, and according to the french chick there is a radio tower on the island, and that 'monster' is some sort of defence system for the island, mechanical too by the sound of it. Schwat do you think?
