I open the game, i see a black window and it closes :(

It's weird that these games never got a "replay" option (at least I saw it nowhere).
That feature could make all versions much more popular, cause people would never lose their cool matches/moves and they will always feel the need to publish it on YouTube or somewhere.
It would be also very nice feature for advanced players to analyse their games.
So, the game should save all replays in one folder. They should have automatically generated names by date and gametype.
If it's the video file that only game can read, then there is no worry that they 'll be too big. Also, developers could always make option to turn saving replays off/on.
That option should support all online and offline (multiplayer/singleplayer) matches.
Maybe WUM could get it in some new patch? ;)

Is there any chance that this version could get some new patch or something?

I was looking for changing a training mission map by editing the .wam file.
It should be a pretty nice idea to try any map you want in the roping challenge.
Any ideas anyone?

WORMS: THE DIRECTOR'S CUT
Live Stream - Saturday, May 19th from 8pm-10pm British Summer Time
(Link will be provided closer to broadcast.)

• Two hours of Wormy goodness!
• Chat window Q&A, so you can ask questions about WormsDC and how it impacted later releases in the series.
• Probably other things! I don't know, I'm not bloody psychic. Get off my back!

WHAT IS WORMS: THE DIRECTOR'S CUT?

You might've heard of Worms: The Director's Cut (or WormsDC for short), a rare Amiga-exclusive version of Worms that was released in 1997 a few short months before the PC release of Worms 2. Now you can watch it being played live. Isn't that nice? I think it's nice.

For those who don't know, WormsDC is a very rare, very special first-generation Worms game that was released exclusively for the Amiga. It was developed by Andy Davidson, who used it as a proving grounds for new ideas that would later be incorporated into Worms 2 - it features the first appearance of weapons such as the Baseball Bat, the Super Sheep and the Holy Hand Grenade, as well as a couple of weapons that didn't make it into later games such as the Sheep-on-a-Rope.

As well as this, WormsDC is probably the most customizable version of Worms ever released. It was the first full game in the series to support custom speechbanks and saved option sets, and is to date the only Worms game that allows you to create your own terrain styles for use when generating random levels.

WormsDC holds the distinction of being the last game Team17 ever released for the Amiga. Only 5,000 copies were made by the game's original distributor, Ocean.

F.A.Q.

Isn't this basically Worms: Reinforcements/Worms United?

Nope. Worms United added new features to the PC version of Worms, and even added a single new weapon - the original grenade variant of the Mole Bomb - but WormsDC is very, very different. While there are features Worms United has that WormsDC lacks, WormsDC has significantly more to offer than United does.


Ah, so it's basically a first-generation Worms 2, then?

Kind of, though not really. Andy Davidson referred to WormsDC as "Worms 1.5" back when the game was released, and that's probably the most accurate description. There are a handful of weapons that appear in Worms 2 that don't appear in WormsDC, such as the Super Banana Bomb, the Homing Strike, and Patsy's Magic Bullet. Worms 2 also features single-player missions - the closest thing WormsDC has is a single-player training mode.


I had the original Worms on the Amiga, and that had "THE DIRECTOR'S CUT!" in the main menu. Did I have WormsDC?

If it looked like this then probably not. The Amiga and CD32 versions of the original Worms had a sub-header of "THE DIRECTOR'S CUT!" on the Amiga because it was developed mostly by Worms creator Andy Davidson, who was able to include a handful of new features that didn't make it into other ports of the game. Worms: The Director's Cut was a separate release with entirely new features, menus, and completely different boxart.


Is this game likely to be re-released for the PC/Mac/etc. in the future?

The short answer: No.

The long answer: Getting WormsDC running on anything other than an actual Amiga requires emulation, which in turn would likely require Team17 to license the Amiga Kickstart ROM, which I would imagine wouldn't be cheap. I wouldn't rule it out, but it's incredibly unlikely. That is to say nothing of Andy Davidson's personal wish that the game remain a swansong for Amiga users.


How can I play WormsDC right now?

You'll need an Amiga emulator, which (again) means you'll need the relevant Amiga Kickstart ROM. The only legal way to get the Kickstart ROM is to either dump it from your own Amiga - you'll probably need Kickstart 3.0 or higher - or to buy the licensed Amiga emulation package, Amiga Forever. If you do buy Amiga Forever DO NOT BUY THE VALUE EDITION as it won't contain the necessary Kickstart ROM required to play WormsDC.

Once you've got that, all you need is to get a copy of WormsDC. Fortunately for you, many years ago Team17 gave us permission to make the game available for free over at Dream17, a Team17 fansite I launched back in (God, was it really) 2003. You can download WormsDC here.


If anybody has any additional questions, feel free to ask them here and I'll answer as best I can.

Ideas / Suggestions for Worms Revolution


put BACK INTO the game
- Replay - Single Player , LAN and Online Games
- Multiplayer increased back to 8 players
- Client/Server Hosting method of hosting games and
not matchmaking (Keep matchmaking trash on consoles)
- 6-8 player multiplayer games



Add to the game

* Please add eSports support , Ladder Mode , Spectator mode and record match

* Please add LAN Multi player support , this would get worms played again
at lan parties and avoid having to add the peoples names on steam that
you might only play with once at an lan party, even if the ip range is limited
to 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.254 and to 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.254 and ban other LAN ip's.

* Please add a function of the game if 3-7 people are playing , one person can join and spectate the ongoing game then join to play next round.

* Please add ping meter to the game/game menu

* Please add the function to play the game in Window mode

* Please add the function to record a match. I know doom and quake had this support.

* Please add ping block function to the game , eg no one joins with a ping higher then 200 this could be a user setting to disable/enable this function. Help in lag free games.

* Please add what country or language the player is from/speaks. Avoids people joining and speaking another language

* Please add party mode/split screen - Multi people on the one pc , using the same keyboard

or mouse or two keyboard and mice. Most pcs have 4 to 8 usb ports now. Why not connect up

two. or 2nd person can use a joystick/joypad. Split screen gaming isnt supported enough on

pc since 2000/2001.

* Please support cross platform play with ranked online play of the new wormNET internet

system. PC Windows , PC Linux , Mac and Console (Xbox360/Xbox720/PS3/PS4)
Please dont use Games for Windows Live

* Hosting BAN list - by name or IP for x hours/temp/perm

* multiplayer options :-
1. LAN Play without WormsNet - 8 player unranked
2. Online WormsNet without or with steam - Add 8 player games - ranked/unranked
3. Online Private unranked game without Worms Net - 4 player game - unranked


Other ideas:-

- Old Weapons back , that were removed from worms reloaded

- New map sizes - Current (medium) , small , large

- Smoke from the fire that follows the wind direction and damages worms with smoke inhalation

- Acid and Acid Rain , damage over time and noxious fumes.

- Big Rocks/Boulders that can be blasted to roll down a hill and crush worms, knock stuff over and blow up barrels.

- Add CPU teams to online multiplayer (bots)

- Team Mode - 1 vs 1 , 2 vs 2 , etc and When invis , you are partially visible to your teammates..

- Bring back victory fanfare & end game clapping with chance to chat

- Player vs AI , 2team of human vs 2 team of ai

- More than 2 max players in ranked mode

- Better Multi player lobby system . The ones in the old dos games were far better

- Support standard USB Keyboard and Mouse on Console and PC editions


Fixed for Worms Reloaded and the new game


AI in single player is inconsistent - ai seems to be insanely precise grenades and Bazooka yet othertimes really stupid. (Reloaded & Revolution)

Ability to choose map/landscape BEFORE starting multiplayer game (Reloaded & Revolution)

Bring back a LAN mode (Reloaded & Revolution)

Add WormsNet (Reloaded & Revolution)

Since I've been playing Worms for so many years, it's not such a big deal to me but I am curious what the single player campaign will entail. Over the years I've tried to get many a friend into the Worms series and they always interpret to be too chaotic/chance-based. I insist, of course, that once you get to know the game it's really quite strategic with only a minimal amount of chance but it did make me realize that with all the weapons and such, there's a big learning curve. I'm wondering if the single player campaign this time around will focus more on learning each weapon, the amount of damage it can do, and it's overall practical application.

Mostly because I'm a selfish ******* and would love this time around to get some friends playing and, at the very least, hoping I can tell them, "Play through the campaign and you'll understand things a lot better."

Anyhow. What is the single player mode looking like for Revolution?

I have complain about some gameplay cheats/bugs. I 'll show them by videos.
1.
First video is made by me. Sorry about the sound (just ignore it).
It shows inability of making cool style combined on Worm Selection and Sentry Gun. I really hope that problem will be fixed somehow.
The result must be: Player who got a hit has to lose his turn in all cases (even if he managed to change worm quickly). That's the rule that Worms should never brake!!!

2.
I really don't know how to describe this one. I didn't make that video, but it shows clearly what I wanted to speak about.
Please, just click on 1:05 or 1:40 and see how weird and unnatural that rope is used there. It's so f*** stupid!!! Looks like the rope can hit the ocean down there and help player to get on girder back. It's so annoying to watch. It's good that people are finding nice tricks and stuff, but don't let them use bugs for that, god damn!

I played a game online on PS3 and suddenly I had over 100 million points. I can no longer play against anyone, not even if we are both searching at the same time on ranked. My last trophy is 40 wins online and I would like to finish this game :D

My PSN is F18Killer1.

Can anyone please help?

As rather a great many people won't have had the opportunity to play Worms: The Director's Cut, I am considering streaming some gameplay this Saturday Sunday from 8-10pm BST (12pm-2pm here in Los Angeles). I'll spend a good chunk of time playing the game, showing off some of the game's weapons - including the elusive Sheep-on-a-Rope - demonstrating some of the game's customization features, and maybe even create a DIY terrain template.

That is, assuming anybody is interested in seeing such a thing. Any takers?

Its always good to see some Amiga guys around, Used to have the amiga 600 and 1200 myself, used to play worms, sensible soccer, sensible golf, cannon fodder, hired guns, alien breed, switchblade, space quest III curse of monkey island, Dune and the settlers were my most played games :D

wow talk about a trip down memory lane just then!
