I can't give you a time frame, but I'm hoping it'll be by the end of the year. If you don't want to wait, check your PM.

Didn't know The Legend had a time limited demo, the one I played had me stuck on the first map with the warrior class. This is the first time I've heard about the game acting like this. Having played both of them on three systems, I've never run into anything similar. Make sure you don't have anything running in the background that may require the video card, like videos, other 3D apps, or some such other, or that you don't have on of those paranoid anti-viruses th

[quote who="HenriHakl" reply="9" id="3007512"]More information on the "world population" would be nice. Including: can I manipulate it by slaying all the citizens of a rival city? Can I conquer a city and move the population to own of my own cities, then raze the conquered city? Other forms of population manipulation?

[quote who="Thoumsin" reply="25" id="3007464"] Well, i can already make hyper-realistic render now... software that i use can activate 6 x64 render engine on my two xeon quad core... in case of animation with a lot of dynamic, i have a subscription to a render farm... data are send via the internet and result render frame return via the same way... Airplay is limited to video and audio but i am pretty sure that with time, it will evolve to allow more heavy usage... once done,

I am currently wrapped up in a blanket, while at my PC, indoors, and I think I saw a mammoth outside. So the beta can come any day now, since "insert Ned Stark quote"

I think it's more about marketing than implementation. Do you need it? Probably not. Are we going to make you want it? Absolutely. In 5 years, the big box desktop will probably look silly to consumers who don't actually use it for anything that it actually excels at, something that honestly is happening already, having been asked by people I used to babysit to find someone to buy their desktop, so they can get laptops and tablets, to Skype and IM. But for someone who u

The combat in The Witcher 2 is a lot more action oriented, you have to dodge, parry, flank and combine heavy attacks with light attacks. In theory it is much better than in the first game. The implementation however was dreadful in the release version. It has gotten better with patches, not sure about the last few, but at times it could still be annoying at how aiming, or lack there of, and motion in general worked. As for the nudity, that's not gone anywhere, you won't see an

Idea nr.2. The idea is simple, a way of making magical items for the sovereign and heroes to use. But as much as I liked the Enchant Item spell from Master of Magic, the implementation I had in mind is a bit different. Instead of a spell, it should be an actual building, only one per faction, requiring some heavy research in order to be obtained, possibly some questing too (Like sending 4 adventurers to an underwater crashed spaceship, in order to recover the Oscil

Here's my wish (nr.1) for Fallen Enchantress: spells that have multiple effects, multiple targets and modifiers. From what Heavenfall has told me, it's not possible to do that trough modding in War of Magic, but I've got hope for Fallen Enchantress, not necessarily from the spells that come with the game, but as an option for people to add trough modifying FE. For example: Let's say there's a spell called Lighthing Rod, that causes a large amount of lightin

Hmm, the world may seem dangerous. But you know what I'm not seeing? Stalking Devil Deer.

The bit with the [spoiler]Dalek was great "Imagine you were dying, imagine you were afraid and a long way from home, in terrible pain, just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, you looked up and you saw the face of the devil himself". That was probably one of the best lines I've ever heard a Doctor say. The nod to Nicholas Courtney, who played the Brigadier, was very touching. In the first episode of this season, the doctor did say he was 200 years older. I thought, that since

Well, this season was filled with more red herrings than something that's filled with a lot of red herrings. Totally did not see that coming, I was expecting [spoiler]that the Doctor that died was made of Flesh, but not a robot, since well, robots don't die. But there is a logic to it, he didn't need to die, he just had to be there and go trough the events that were fixed in time. The robot being hit and burned, that's all. This ending actually made a lot more sense than

[quote who="wilebill" reply="6" id="3002313"] Critics of different points of view on D3 should lighten up and smell the coffee. Isometric may be traditional for Diablo, but it is very old technology dating back to the time when computers were powered by hand crank generators.[/quote]  As opposed to the first person perspective that's only been around since the '70s? Technology has nothing to do with perspective. It's a choice of style and gameplay.

I think it may have something to do with him being Editor-in-Chief of anything related to gaming, and not being familiar with the isometric camera angle. As a former Editor-in-Chief, I can't help at wonder as to how he got the job. But still, he makes a few good points. I would be curious as how the Diablo world would feel made into a first person immersive experience, like Vampire TM Bloodlines, or Deus Ex, or even the classic Ultima Underworld. Games he doesn't actually ment

It looks good, as fogs of war go. Personally, I still prefer the one from Heroes of Might and Magic 2, it sparkled. Well, it just had some colored pixels in to brighten up the scene, but it did the trick.

You can find it here: http://fold.it/ I couldn't really make heads or tails in the 5 minutes I gave it attention. But I'm glad other people were more diligent.

Hehe, they were joking about making a sequel to Syndicate that would be truer to the source than the one Starbreeze was working on, before it was announced. Now, they're serious about it. The Paradox people are awesome, and totally not vampires.

I think I know the reason they made Amelie look like that on the cover of King's Bounty Armored Princess. It's so they can do this at Igromir

[quote who="screeg" reply="8" id="2999430"]Thanks to the miracle of Kindle, this book was (self) published.[/quote]  Wait.... you can do that!? I may have to re.. reevaluate my priorities.

Four seasons are overrated. Down here we've also got mock-summer, almost-autumn, pseudo-winter and "YE ELDER GODS HELP US WE'LL FREEZE TO DEATH IN THE NEW ICEAGE". A good TBS beta would be nice during that last one, so would some woolly mammoths to hunt.

Thank you for sharing this. That reminds me, I've neglected my writing for the past two years. Although, maybe procrastinating wasn't a bad idea. The longer I leave the story to simmer, the better it gets, unless I start to forget things, which I sadly tend to do. The bit where I've been having trouble is defining characters. They started out as amorphous globs, each draft adding a bit more shape to them. At some point I intentionally put them in situations that weren'

You're right, he would be his own worst fear, The Dream Lord proved how much he hated himself.

Hmm, if I could fit Adobe Premiere on it as well, having it load faster would be a definite improvement, as it currently does take ages. Heck, by mid 2012, maybe prices will go down to the point where I won't have to drop 1TB on the storage HDD to afford it. Technological advancement, the ball's in your court, make me proud, but not broke. LE: The "uses up the number of writes faster than normal" is a bit ominous.

Out of curiosity, how noticeable of a performance boost does an SSD offer if you only keep the operating system on it? Not just booting, but other day to day stuff, I'm assuming it improves page filing. I'm asking because I'm thinking of getting one, but I won't be able to afford one that can fit more than you're average OS on it. Would it still be a good investment just for that?

Please, everyone knows The Big Giant Head ordered the killing of the dinosaurs. The last two episodes of Doctor Who were great, especially since the one with the one before wasn't all that cracked up. I'm really curious to see how/if/when/how they'll tie up the whole story, or even if they plan to do it in this season, considering there's only two episodes left. After all, there's still a lot of stuff unanswered from the previous season. But at least they tea
