Screens From Thursday Crash Game
Inspiration For The Jojn The Steel Team Texture
If you have played Kingpin you are probably aware of the 'Join The Steel Team' texture/poster (used in map bar_st & steel1 and lots of multiplayer maps).Well Cherno found what looks to be the inspiration for the texture.
Djo Bourgeois: L'Inhumaine, 1925
Inspiration for Forging the Future poster? Found this poster in a book about Art Deco.
Fredz then did a side by side comparison.

Rampage Death Match Map
Yesterday while we were playing DM, talk turned to Redneck Rampage so we ended up playing this map, Rampage.Rampage is a retextured version of my old Frag'n'Die4 map using Redneck Rampage textures.
It's a smallish map with a large courtyard area, three small rooms and ladders that give you access to the upper ledges. This version is totally retextured using the Redneck textures and added sounds and a sample from one of the soundtrack songs.
You can download Rampage (fragndie4_redneck.bsp) from here.
Just extract/unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.

How has Kingpin influenced modern games?
I asked that AI generated Windows CoPilot "How has Kingpin influenced modern games?"This was it's response:-
Kingpin: Life of Crime has left a lasting mark on the gaming industry, despite its initial controversy. Here are some ways it has influenced modern games:
- Gritty, Mature Themes – Kingpin pushed boundaries with its dark, crime-ridden world, inspiring later games like Grand Theft Auto and Mafia to embrace mature storytelling.
- RPG Elements in FPS Games – The game introduced RPG-like mechanics, such as hiring gang members and upgrading weapons, which influenced titles like Far Cry and Borderlands.
- Innovative AI and Pathfinding – Enemies in Kingpin used advanced AI, setting a precedent for smarter enemy behavior in modern shooters.
- Urban Crime Aesthetic – The game's dystopian cityscape and gangster themes helped shape the visual and narrative style of later crime-focused games.
Its legacy continues to be appreciated by fans and developers alike.
