[quote]You are one seriously lazy shit if you pick a console over a PC because you might have to update a video card driver to play a new game. That's a brain dead simple operation that any idiot can do. I can understand the fear of learning the more difficult stuff, but anyone that wont do such simple maintenance is just lazy.[/quote] you id be suprised how thick headed some people are
5-10% would be a bit too much for each planet maybe if it were a one time thing of taking over a different species, it would make sense
Carbon016 You really need to learn to read better because first you criticize me saying your inability to buy a proper computer because i bought a laptop for travel purposes. Did i ever say i bought it for gaming?? All i said was, an average person who plays games will most likely have to buy a new computer every 2 years (since he has no clue what the inside of a computer looks like.) [quote]Then why are you posting here if you have no experience in that arena? 'derp I bought a shi

[quote]Laptops are not in any way, shape or form "gaming" machines. Anyone who tells you otherwise is an idiot. Yes, I know laptops can play some games, but it's NOT what they are designed for and they are severely gimped when it comes to games. They're also more expensive in terms of price per performance than desktops. If you want to buy a PC to play games on, get a desktop.And the ONLY thing that needs replacing every two to three years in a gaming PC is the video card. There is absolute
[quote]Your ignorance of upgrade cycles or your inability to buy a proper computer is not the issue here, especially because four-year-old engines like Source and its numerous upgrades including one in 2007 still run fine on even the lowest of specced computers. The question is this recurrent, incessant, stupid meme being trotted out that just because Crysis is a unoptimized, overhyped CPU grinder that all new PC games are the game. Which is a complete fabrication.[/quote] ignorance of
[quote]nequa how many games in the last year have had "high" graphics settings that put a toll on a reasonable or budget gaming computer (let's say, E6400 or higher processor, 9600GT)the trick is, don't say "Crysis"go[/quote] a reasonable gaming computer will have to be replaced at least every 2 years (probably sooner) if you want to barely keep up with the newer games is the issue and most people find it to be a waste of money. I bought my computer in 2005 and i am not planning to repl
[quote]I can only hope you're right. I've never found it in RTS games, but for FPSs, the attitude of some guys towards myself and my female friends can be quite.. disturbing at times. I'm glad that doesn't happen too often though. There are quite afew girls/women online though. It just depends on the game. And I know I tend to keep quiet in case of any idiots playing (who have a vendetta against me because I'm female ), so people assume I'm a guy. Never tried dating
It would be a good idea to give small bonus for taking over a planet from an alien race though influence. Based on the population and race get a % bonus in something. Arceans = Better soldier% Dengrin = Better soldier% Drath = Diplomatic skills Altarian = Better research Korx = trade bonus Thalan = population Torian = ??? Iconian = ??? Yor = Increase Loyalty Terran = Increase Diplomatic skills Krynn = Increased Morale
I used to see dread lords appear on the map but they don't appear anymore. Wonder what triggers them since its always more amusing with an evil overpowered race wandering around destroying everything.
did the mod work properly?
I have noticed this in DA as well, at the end when there are only 2 or 3 civ left (other than me) Krynn has been there on all of my games and they are on the same level as me or stronger.
[quote]But do you wish to surrender now and die fast, or fight and be slowly tortured for their enjoyment?[/quote] If u surrender, odds are you will die a much slower since they can do anything they want, compared to when they are forced to fight someone armed [quote]As a possibly corrupt evil leader they could be striking a deal for themselves. "A fast ship and cash and you can have the rest of my empire, just let me dissappear"[/quote] got me there, cept it woul
pretty funny i will hand my self over to people who want to kill me
wonder if a system restore would use up active install since I run system restore once every 4-6 months
[quote] norton is as good as any of the others..[/quote] I am not saying norton is bad but its uses up so much space not to mention the start up time if i use nod32/(cant remember name of firewall) or if i use zone alarm i cut that same time by almost 3 minutes (I am not patient enough to watch my slow computer load a bloated anti virus)
[quote]The movie was pretty good. Not as many laugh out loud moments, but still.[/quote] As far as im concerned the simpson movie was the best movie made in 07
sry bout the double post, didnt know that quote was not by a mod in bioware :S still refuse to buy a game with 10 day reactivation crap :)
[quote]Stardock loses sales too. They just had fantastic timing to come out with their game with no protection after starforce was basically pushed out of business, and was the talk of the town. Now stardock uses anti-anti piracy as a form of advertising and guess what it works. It's pretty funny actually because I find that most people are just parrots on this whole issue, it's not really objective anymore.[/quote] 1. I dont like their company 2. I dont like their 10 day activation
[quote]Very Important!!Not all free virus scanners are virus scanners. In fact, most are viruses.[/quote] AVG isn't so bad for being free :)
I liked knights of the old republic so Ill recommend that if you are into RPGS
happend to me a long time ago in dark avatar hasnt happend since i stopped playing gigantic maps though (maybe computer doenst process everything fast enough)
You dont really need anything other than a windows firewall, unless you go to a lot of random websites or download things. But if you had to go with a good anti virus//firewall I will agree with Kaspersky or getting Nod32 (anti virus only) o yah and mozilla firefox (IE is horrible)
I used to play starcraft with a lot of girls (as far as i know) maybe they were men in disguise :SURPRISED:
unless the world ends, i doubt the simpsons will :CONGRAT:
