Only reason why it's hard for me to play FFA is because I play Hardcore TDM all the time. So when I try to go to FFA game and have to unload a whole clip rather than a few shots to kill somebody it gets annoying. LOL!

In the video game world, "respawn" means a character that was killed off has come back to life.
So when two of the top creative talents in the industry form a new independent company called Respawn Entertainment, they are sending an unmistakable message to colleagues, competitors and fans.
The pair, Jason West and Vincent Zampella, who played key roles in the development of the multibillion-dollar military shooter franchise Call of Duty, have been embroiled in a bitter dispute with their former employer, Activision Blizzard Inc., which fired them a month ago in a move that shook the industry with the force of a rocket-propelled grenade.
West and Zampella first responded by suing Activision for more than $36 million. On Monday, they are expected to make their next move with the announcement that they are forming a new game studio and hooking up with Activision's chief rival, Electronic Arts Inc., which will have exclusive distribution rights to their next creation. The pair disclosed their plans in interviews with The Times on Sunday.
The company is initially being funded with several million dollars in seed capital by EA, according to people familiar with the situation. In a typical publishing deal, developers are given money by a publisher up front that they can earn back from the game's sales revenue.
In a rarity for the highly corporatized video game world, however, West and Zampella will own and have full control over the intellectual property they create.
"This is a total reset," Zampella said. "We're starting again from ground zero. It's daunting and exciting."
West and Zampella are among a handful of creators well known by video game players. Their creation of a company is roughly equivalent to the shake-up in the film business when Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen formed DreamWorks Studios in 1994.
The move, a rare bet on individual talent in an industry usually focused on big brand names, means there will be a major new title competing for gamers when Respawn finishes its first product in two or three years. It could also presage more independence and financial benefits for the creators of hit games, particularly if West and Zampella win or favorably settle their lawsuit.

In a lawsuit detailed last week, Activision accused ex-Infinity Ward bosses Jason West and Vince Zampella of trying to start their own development studio prior to their dismissal. Whether or not that turns out to be accurate, the pair has now formed a one, called it Respawn Entertainment and signed a publishing deal with Activision rival Electronic Arts. Meanwhile, production on "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3" may be getting delayed as a direct result of the legal disagreements between the the Respawn founders and their former corporate home.
"Respawn Entertainment marks a fresh start for Jason and me," Zampella said in a press release. "For the past decade we led a great development team and poured our hearts into creating an epic game franchise. We're very proud of what we built — and proud that so many millions of fans enjoyed those games. Today we hope to do it all over again — open a new studio, hire a great team, and create brand new games with a new partner, EA."
Their new website Respawn.com currently has nothing more than a title and email address for prospective developers to use for job inquiries. Activision will undoubtedly look unfavorably upon this new development in their ongoing dispute, especially since court documents dissected over at Kotaku contain an Activision complaint that West and Zampella's actions are "delaying pre-production of 'Modern Warfare 3.'"
The Los Angeles Times compared the duo's new business venture to Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen forming DreamWorks Studios in 1994, a move that rocked Hollywood at the time. Comic book readers may prefer a comparison to Image Comics in 1992 when some of the highest profile creators in that industry walked away from Marvel Comics to establish a publishing home on their own terms.
Unsettled issues with Activision aside, as a gamer you have to appreciate their new studio name — though the prospect of the Modern Warfare franchise getting tied up in court for an prolonged, unknown period of time would be quite unfortunate.

Sorry if I don't sound all enthused.... I was pretty tired when I finally figured out how to add narration. Still gotta fix those ugly black borders.... anyone got ideas?

Does the narration help? No? No difference?

Still pretty much the same, but they added some random stuff in certain rooms like boxes, bookshelves and shit. I know in Overgrown, when it's quiet, you hear the brushes like in Rundown. Other than those minor things, they're pretty much exactly the same.
