C:12569

Posted in Transmissions on 30 Mar 2009.

Thomas couldn't make it this week, but we're joined by the entire Decadence team for an interview. We talk about Shotgun Sunrise briefly and the topic of the week is the closing of Filefront. Rest in peace Filefront, you will be sorely missed.

Transmission Code: 12569

The Decadence team were all sharing a single microphone, so we apologize if their audio quality isn’t perfect. I just did the iTunes post because William usually forgets, so it should be up on iTunes whenever they next scan us for updates or whatever. – Nic

    Also, I have to say that the expression “Let people play your mod, come out of the closet” made by Filip is genius :)

    Oh this was the best podcast, haha love it.
    I actually bothered for one of the first times to download a mod. You guys got me psyched about Decadence while I was listening, so here I am, just got back from a long session of playing and it’s awesome. The attention to detail and polished-ness of this mod is fantastic. Great work to the team.

    And damn, I didn’t even notice Thomas wasn’t there, now I feel bad. Sorry dude, I guess it’s the Canadians blending into one voice or something.

    Keep up the good show guys. And damn Emmanuel has no tact, makes for a very good interview though.

    Nice podcast. A bit hard to follow during some parts, but overall awesome work from podcast17 and the decadence team. Played the modification at work, together with one of the authors (Pomperi/Pontus), and had lots of fun. I really like how focused and polished the game feels.

    I would like to have 3on3 too, but that might head in an unwanted direction.

    A really interesting podcast, thank you guys!

    Hey.

    Must say one of the best episodes and a fantastic interview. Just sad how few European mods there is. I think one of the reason this was really good, was because Emanuel was in a good mood :) First time he sounded positive about something he tried out… Almost weird :)
    Also the decadence team, was really funny and great at answering the questions (But of cause they are Scandinavians :) .

    Looking forward to the live episode tomorrow/sunday.

    Sorry for the bad english.
