Most of the time sequels are quite a bit worse than the original though, which given the high expectations, makes them seem "much" worse.

You really hit the nail on the head with that statement.
Maybe TUT is old and has worse graphic but it still has big potential. You can make it to look better and making maps I so much easier in UED 2.0 than in newer editors where you have to learn other 3D editors like 3dsmax, maya, blender etc. IMO making mods on new engines is wasting time because it can't be succeed if at all it will be done...

TUT is so much imbalance that it's close to zero fun for me. And since it won't change on a professional way it will always stay that way. I've been much more online earlier but now, even when I get online I don't want to play and just have a look.
I first didn't like NB but all that rubbish that happens in TUT lately and non-supportive community made me think that NB was the right choice. So actually I wouldn't mind NB at all.
Although I have to say TUT has potential, there is nothing that unleashes that potential. So it's always the same old awful gameplay anyway.[E.D.G] Trapmaster - Doomsayer

I was suggesting the games improve not just by nicer graphics but with games they tend to incorporate all of the gameplay from the previous installment and simply add in better physics, graphics and gameplay. I could list you countless, countless game franchises where a sequel has beaten the original. There are also a number of originals that are best, but not nearly as much as was implied.

Seemed pretty balanced to me the 4 years I played it. With a few exceptions.
Second point, it really depends on the people you are playing with, the gameplay is far from awful.

I also think you should try to improve Thievery. What have you got to lose? To think that after all these years there are still players in a not so famous mod for a really old game. We are still here. I still remember that mod GulloneFox was making, can't remember the name, he might have some models and stuff as well.
To be brutally honest, I never expected NB to be finished. It just never seemed to get going, always sort of idling along.
But still, you worked hard on it, props.
I guess the question is, what's next?

About the people: Yes.
Originally posted by SlyI also think you should try to improve Thievery. What have you got to lose?
1st: Lots of time.
2nd: Lots of nerves.
Not sure if any of the NB / BCG original devs want to do that. Great people like Gullone or Mordengaard vanished. And they were those that supported TUT for a long time.
(On the other hand: More interesting question would be: What would be the benefit of it?)

Work swallowed up Gullone, occasionally signs in to msn, don't think he's seen mord for a while either mind.
Anyone wanting to play tut1.7 just needs to play with ThNewTools, since they were created using suggestions from the tut1.7 thread, and have the ability to disable things people don't like.
Give thieves titan bombs, and any maps people feel are guard-friendly will soon take on a whole new method of play.... (actually thnewtools purposefully didn't have cool stuff like that to make people happier if they saw them installed on servers ).[E.D.G]Chief

Prob. means that Gullonefox is on so little he never sees Mord.

Yeah, it's great that Thief 4 is coming out after all this waiting in doubt.
I was thinking that you could present these mods to Eidos Montreal and who knows... They could add a multiplayer mode just like tut/nightblade; putting your hard work to good use.
