OMG FLASH BACK!!!

Post by swtvi3txtcboi »

.....it was.......(enter date here).......not sure about date...but yes it was Apocalypse 2...an acutal island where tractors were actually used...yes....no supras, motorcycles, vipers, walking Druid, Etc. No flying spaceships in space just this little start up screen using pgup and down to select an island :-D. Just your good ol tractor, dodge, Ghetto jeep, buggy(a rectange with four circles on it.....), or the occasional rich guy with the Porche.....than there was smilinjoe....and how do i remember him...hmmm...but neways there u were in the middle of this game playing with true classic elites such as Huss, BD, Smilinjoe, Zar( i cant believe he's still here), karyn, ecived( Device), qwertyalien( i believe), and occasionally the boozed Mit. and a few others i cant remember. This was one of the best, but limited times of Atractor....yes not Universal but actually ATRACTOR it was called....some of you now who enjoy this game so much imagine if u played a game where there was only 3 islands you could choose from and only 1 had an actual real economy. Imagine u didnt have your supra or your planes (which BTW back then when it was released people could only glide wiht it, time of our lives :-D). When robocrows were just...crows.....and a time when u could find a bug at every corner of the game o.O...a time where only thing you could buy for weapons was Shrapnel grenades. No building materials(wood, stone, plastics, etc.) A time of just fun free playing and making money to own that elusive but worthwhile gliding Biplane for hours of fun....i know its sad....but yes it was a great time a time that should be remembered.


Please Post Here if You Also Remember Things That I Forgot...Thank You, and "never forget the past, for it helps pave the future." Have fun playing :-D

I remember playing back when the only post on the 'Original A-tractor' forums was "my tractor is stuck in a mud hole", beat that. :P

P.S. Mit, you remember that post eh? :D
P.S.2. That tractor stuck in a mud hole was a 'Real Life' tractor, not the game one. ;)
P.S.3. That original forum didn't even have the ability for users to register, it was more of a shout box. :roll:

yep, those were the times.
a time when people could transfer for money and building owners had to allow it since you coulden't stock your own stuff.
a time when the economies ran great and the players were prosparous.


yea, the current zoric uses the buildings that apoc 2 had. i got the buildings file from device and converted it to be used in this version as a tribute to apoc 2 since it ran this time 3 years ago. its mostly the same, slightly different though. has alot of the newer features, different models. building/product costs are pretty much the same though.

I am desperately tiring to stay away from this game, but the game is just like the mafia,

“It just keeps pulling me back in!!”

The good thing is now my wife is happy again, I got my taxes done, a really bad sunburned and my kids recognize me again. I hope to play again with you guys real soon.

I hope all of you guys are doing well; see you all in a month or two.
Take care, DUDE
