DKC Atlas Forum

Ouch, losing data's never fun. My best friend's computer just crashed today too. For some reason it won't turn on. Anyway, I've had this happen to me too many times and have essentially gone over the top to prevent myself from losing anything ever, mostly because I am continually doing work on my co...

I like the concept of an evil Kong though and I'm not opposed to it. The idea I posted about Klubba wouldn't really work as a DKC4 storyline because it's too epic. I like the simpler concept of Karny much better. Besides, the plot is not the important part, it's the gameplay. If the plot becomes so ...

Of course, this is DKC4, and the DKC series is very much built on formula and cliche. The plot Cfh describes sounds like it would work for a very epic 3D DK game, but too complicated for DKC4. Perhaps some deviation could be taken in the plot, but not so much to the point that it tries to tie in all...

Here are my suggestions: -Having two antagonists only works one way, having "Karny Kong" be the antagonist for the majority of the game only to reveal that he was being manipulated or controlled by K. Rool in the end, a la DKC3. -If Karny Kong is meant to be the generic evil doppelganger a...

I'm only half paying attention here but if you're trying to make a trampoline look DKC-ish then I would make it like a tan hide stretched around a rim rather than the red and white target looking one you have right now. I'm not sure if I'm conveying the image in my head very well but that's the best...

Those look good. I probably like the third one best but they all look really nice.

For what it's worth I like the brown background rather than the blue, the yellow menus, and the smaller header from the fourth image.

Yeah, I definitely would've preferred the Cape or the Tanooki suit or Raccoon suit to the new Propeller suit.

Please post the response, I want to refute it!

First of all, Nintendo didn't make Brawl, HAL did. And Sakurai has no authority over the continuity of the DK series. A cameo appearance by DK should not dictate how the series goes. Also, if the Kaptain K. Rool mistake was an error in translation then the Cranky Kong being DK's Grandfather thing co...

DKC-Atlas has it's own plans to pursue an encyclopedic database of DKC information whether it be in the form of a Wiki or other such form of information, and thus I doubt we can take any official stance on your wiki. Of course, I'm just Jomingo, I can't make any statement on the behalf of Qyzbud, an...

Correction: A newer game called Super Smash Bros. Brawl supports that view, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl also states that Kaptain K. Rool is King K. Rool's brother. As far as Rare is concerned (who, might I remind you, created Cranky Kong) Cranky is DK's father, and Loveday said that any instance cla...

Sure, there may be some evidence for a couple statements you've made, but the majority of what you just said was just your theories. Unlike you, I am not in the mood for a debate, at least not about the Kong Family Tree. Though, it always seems to turn into one. The worst thing about these threads i...

... weeeiiirrrdd... You guys make me frown.

Eh, is anything we do right? One could say that we commit a great many wrongs and thus that could be considered a hypocritical statement. I will not say that only because them's fightin' words. Of course I respect the film industry, and thus I go see a great deal of movies upon initial release. But ...

First of all, yes we most certainly do have a Kong Family Tree topic, here it is. Second, I really really really hate talking about the Kong family again every year, so just go ahead and read the discussion in this topic. Of course, if other people want to join in and renew the conversation be my gu...

No, he just disappeared for awhile. It happens to the best of us.

I would actually very much like to see that. If you ever find the disk please start a topic for it so I can check it out.

Fair enough. In fact, I'd very much prefer that you don't mention whatever it is you are referring to and just enjoy your return regardless of how brief or long it may be.

This proposed technology is not a prototype game controller; I've actually been under the impression that it was a new computer interface. I suppose the Guitar Hero would throw one off, but I think that that was just a way to show off the technology in a relevant way.

This is merely a prototype to show off the possibilities. First of all, this is just a set of sensors; they can't control your body functions. Next, someday when the technology is more fleshed out it will likely just detect tiny subconscious muscle movements and essentially control things with just ...

Check this out.
Discuss!

Agreed. Multiplayer can be a b...*bleep*...ch for a lot of reasons though. If you get to far apart one player can't keep up, if you're too close you get in each other's way. My little brother always gets behind and has to go into the bubble, and then I often die before I can pop him. Also, we beat a...

Yeah WinRAR rules. You should look into it. Anyway, I had tons of old Rare renders and promotional stuff saved on my old computer that is all lost now. It would be nice to have that back; I'm sure it's out there somewhere but regardless it will be intensely difficult to track down all of it again. I...

I would marry you.

What do you think of that proposal?

I have it now, and I love it. But somehow it just doesn't seem as smooth as the old ones. It feels slippery and imprecise, which makes it difficult especially with multiplayer.

You are the dude who did remixes or whatever with the psychopath that you're no doubt referring to in that very post.


Welcome back I suppose.

I am not very far and I'm sure it'll pop up for me at some point but that doesn't mean I'm gonna use it. I can say that it is not an easy game and there are a lot of families out there that bought the game and probably will never beat it without some feature like this.

I understand that you agree with him but what I'm saying is that his point has no validity. The fact is that the Super Guide in NSMBW made no impact whatsoever. If you can play through the game and never even notice it why should you care if someone else plays and needs it. Games aren't getting dumb...

I've always noticed the connection, just never mentioned it. Yeah, I figure that the Ewok villages on the Moon of Endor probably were a strong influence in one way or another.

First of all, I doubt this is credible information at all. I don't think you have anything to worry about until a real gaming news organisation mentions it, and so far they haven't. Regardless of whether this is true or not you guys have to realize that it isn't necessarily a bad thing. Listen, ther...

So basically Tiptup, a better summary of your story would have been: OH MY F**KING GOSH Just kidding, next time you should definitely tell the whole story the first time around. Life's better that way. Anyway, here's a story about how (un) epic my life is: First off, this week has been exam week. As...

If only Swanky Kong would advertise with us, we could pay for the server and let's just face it, that would be pretty cool lookin'.

This is pretty old news. But then again, pretty much anything we ever talk about has already been talked about to death everywhere else on the internet.

Look, first I'm going to repeat the point that this isn't the best place to ask this question, not only because it's a DKC fansite, but also because forums don't always return replies as quickly as you might need for something like this. Next, she is probably a girl from your school who is either me...

Actually it's now down to Mario and Gordon Freeman, and it looks like Mario is going to lose! I may have never heard of Gordon Freeman, but man do I hate Mario and wish him to fail.

Hmm... that's weird. I was sure we already have a topic for this but I guess we don't.

Actually Sony says that too from time to time. Basically whenever any company gives a presentation they generally toss those kinds of choice phrases out there to sound important. And speaking of Reggie, I watched an interview of him by Adam Sessler and when asked about hardcore games Reggie had the ...

Look, every company says things like that. Every console is apparently the best source for all of our gaming needs, according to the developers at least. As for the part about the old stuff, well they do have BK and BT remade, you can't ignore that.

Not really news, at least to me that is. Actually that article lied with the "more space than ever before" comment, because Activision is releasing a 250gb Modern Warfare 2 bundle before this. Anyway, this seems to me a better option for those who haven't purchased one already, rather than...

Happy Bday Qyz.

DKL is not the same as DKC not only because of the story but because the entire game has completely different locations and enemies. It's a new game, not just a port.

Welcome back. For future reference, we don't need a new topic every time a member goes away for a while. I believe we have a comings and goings topic for such a purpose, if we don't then the random thoughts topic will be an adequate place for such announcements.

Year 9 as in "9th graders" I believe. Tiptup: I agree with Gnawzooka. There is nothing more annoying than religious people trying to advertise their religion to others, and to some people that can be very offensive. No, we aren't going to get into a religious debate here, I'm only saying t...

Free laptops?

OK, you have been given a second chance at life, stupid question topic.

This ends today.

I hope I'm not coming off as a hard ass, but when the conversation deteriorates into "Donuts. Donuts?" I am forced to pull the plug.

"locked"

NOTE: Before I get started, the following response doesn't imply that I don't like criticism, it is merely me defending my own opinions. Feel free to criticize away, no matter how I react. Look, Donkey Kong is not only known for being a bulky, heavy character. It's only the Mario games that imply th...

Although I agree with your general sentiment, I can understand most of the reasons why the current gen is the way it is. First of all, about wireless controllers. The 360 ones are rechargeable, and they also have large quantities of good old wired ones if you want. The Wii is understandable, as havi...
