WEll then it was on the store page... At this point I find it pretty bad Frgo has stayed super quite....I know why I got it as early as I did, bc there was that price never going lower guarantee. The $45 steam package was not considered a founders pack. So many ppl wouldnt be saying it if there was no validity too it. I know, as its the only reason i picked it up as early as I did. Rather than say nothing and piss a lot of ppl off, why not c

This was after the founders packs mate. And it was clear as day.....hence why more than one person is saying it. Unfortunately I cleaned my inbox and no longer have the promo emails was around 24/08/2014 if you want to get specific

Reply to Galactic Civilizations Weekend Steam Sale in PC Gaming GalCiv3 Forums

It was in email and on the website front page asying it would not go below $45. Thats why i picked it up so early, try it out and no issues waiting out for a sale..... Hence my frustrations. Offworld trading company looks great....but guess what SD...your not getting my money after the flipant bait n switch on the "sale" price.

[quote who="Alstein" reply="19" id="3526908"] The $100 founders, I see your point and agree with it. The folks who paid $45, they have a point (if you consider it valid or not is another topic, that's debatable)- they aren't getting the packs and DLC for free. Also I don't think anyone is complaining about post-release sales, just EA sales. There were similar complaints about Planetary Annhilation. <br /

Reply to What is the future of Early Access? in PC Gaming GalCiv3 Forums

So what about the statement that it would never go below $45 so join the early access today statement being branded around a month or so ago. Only reason i bought into early access was due to that confirmation....been a loyal fan for a long time, but the salt is very real with this recent sale. Any chance of me buying into more early access programs is now out the window.

The issue is that they said the price would not go below $45. They said get it cheap now as the price woudnt drop and only go up. Thats why im pissed, I would have waited for a sale and saved 20bks but there was that statement of the price never dropping before release. Inexcusable, i wont be touching any other early access out of stardock now due to this BS.

League of Legends in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

Just started playing this game cause i wanted something with strategy but not the fast paced brain explosion that is Starcraft 2 MP (Im a diamond toss) Love Starcraft 2, but really enjoying this game atm. 2 days into it and I only really know how to play with Ashe, but its a load of fun. Simple and complex at the same time. What are your general thoughts on this game??? And any tips for a noob to this style of RTS fun.

Bu how do you have an RTS-MMO??? I dont see how this would work from both a micro transactions, progression and gameplay point of view. Will be interesting to see how it turns out. Arnt RTS games like Starcraft 2 also essentially MMO, as you compete with everyone else online??? Ill hold judgment to wait and see.

Looking at Firing points.com they are saying it is cause there taking over age of empires online. And if you look at Chris Taylors quote. This wont be out anytime soon if ever. References Duke nukem forever.....thats never good. But mainly due to the fact they will be providing post release support for AOEO. Free MMO-RTS.....no idea how that works but will be interesting to see.

Thanks for the advice guys. Changed out PSU last night to a Corsair TX850......working like a charm. Ran the problem child for about 2 hours and no smell. :D Sux i had to fork out the money. But now i know my power supply wont kill my poota. Have edcited the OP subject line to SOLVED. @yrag your a champ dude. Saved me so much time with your Corsair TX suggestion.

@yrag....Do you think 650W is sufficent??? 1 poster suggested i double the 550W but that seems a bit excessive as I wont be getting an SLI setup. Will 650W be enough if i was to upgrade motherboard & cpu in future (wont be SLI)??? Surprised how cheep that is for a good PSU....was expecting to pay 200-300+ for something decent. Thanks for the advice yrag. Youve just saved me hours of research. +1 for u!!!! [e digicons]k1[/e]

Pc making Strange burning smell.....[SOLVED] in Personal Computing Stardock Forums

HI everyone, Having this issue that poped up in the last week. Where my PC is emiiting a strong buring of plastic/capacitor smell. But i cant see anything overly wrong inside. When i first noticed the problem I turned PC off....obviously then turned it on when smell subsided and no issues. The only time i seem to have the issue with the smell is when i play Dawn of Discovery (Anno 1404) with eveything on max AF 8x & AA 4x or more (bumped it back to 4x after smell.)

[quote who="hatstand" reply="110" id="2843336"] quoting post The problem is, at silver and gold levels of Starcraft, the players you’re up against are overwhelmingly “all in” starting strategists. That is, they expect to win or lose the game in the first 5 minutes This. This is why I don't play Starcraft II any more. [/quote] Then play as toss and build sentrys.......Problem solved.
