I tried to pass it up really I did. Scientists should know something about science... then maybe worry about the writers. How many scientists are running around spouting unproven theories on things like Dark matter as if they were gospel .

[quote who="LightStar" reply="3" id="3074192"]Yep! One should clean out their PC at least every 3 months IMO, more often is even better though. I use a small air compressor to clean mine out, buying those cans of air is way too expensive in the long run. [/quote] More often for some depending on if you have pets, your cooling system etc. I do mine once every month or 2.. 2 cats.. non filtered fans. If i was running positive air pressure I would have to do it even more often.</p
[quote who="Lantros" reply="35" id="3074176"] Nearly all the complaints I read from people are things that have to do with balance even when people don't realize it is balance they're actually complaining about. This are exactly my thoughts, when i read most of the complaints. Sometimes it "drives me crazy", because i can´t participate in the discussions, because my english is not good enough for such thing. [/quote] I can participate in them.
[quote who="StevenAus" reply="32" id="3074168"]To Fistalis: I'm not saying the Metacritic score is the only thing that is important, no. But if Metacritic is only by reviewers, then that reduces the usefulness of the measure by a certain amount, definitely. [/quote] The metacritic score that is used in adverts etc is always the reviewer score. When going for a high metacritic score your no longer designing a game for gamers.. your designing a game for reviewe
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="31" id="3074152"] Also, yelling at me about some feature you think should be changed in the game isn't real useful. I'll read it (I'll read all the posts) but it's not my area in the game, nor do i want it to be my area in the game. [/quote] So wait.. me throwing a fit about garbage collection getting its own thread isn't gonna make you change it? [e digicons]X([/e] You sure I can't persuad
[quote who="StevenAus" reply="29" id="3074131"]What I hope is that Stardock really does give the game enough time to get a Metacritic 90 average. Even if it takes 6 months (or longer).[/quote] If a high metacritic score is important alls they have to do is up the graphics.. dumb down the system and release lots of DLC. Concentrate on making the first hour of the game great.. replay value doesn't matter since most critics will only spend an hour or 2 at most on the game
I think the Pats will win.. but i kinda hope the giants will so Eli can look at peyton and say "ya you have all those records but I have 2 rings" [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] To be fair though I'm a Rams fan so I haven't paid much attention to football this season to say the least. I did catch the play off games and was disappointed with how all the teams performed. None seemed to be Superbowl material tbh.
[quote who="seanw3" reply="17" id="3073914"]I am starting to wonder if everyone understands garbage collection. I think he was speaking to optimization. [/quote] yes garbage collection is related to memory management.. I figured my post would go over some peoples heads though. [e digicons]:P[/e]
[quote who="Neilo" reply="99" id="3073894"] Quoting Jafo , reply 98 Its all good we did a good job of derailing the thread Don't count on it yet, you may well be asked to clarify your post![/quote] I see what you did there...
[quote who="Donfield" reply="96" id="3073868"]He reminds me of a brother-in-law I had, who always insisted the only opinion that mattered was his own. But we probably all have one like that. The only philosophy course I took was Logic, so I'm better at recognizing fallacious arguments than terminology.[/quote] Its all good we did a good job of derailing the thread.. No brother in law here.. sister ain't married.. and her boyfriend isn't allowed to have opi
[quote who="Donfield" reply="89" id="3073840"] Quoting Fistalis, reply 87 Perhaps you meant Denialism which kinda sounds the same but is very different. I was consulting a reference at the time, though your suggestion could be closer in this case.[/quote] nihilism suggests that his refusal to accept the facts and arguments are based in a deeper seeded philosophy involving the value of or the existen
[quote]13. Garbage collection has been moved into its own thread so that it doesn't interfere with the smoothness of the game.[/quote] OMG seriously wtf.. Whats the point of a beta if your going to ignore our input and give garbage collection its own thread. (I'm sure someone suggested not to do this... wait no? no one? oh well whatever I'm sure someone would have suggested not to do it if we had known you were going to[e digicons]*_*[/e] )
[quote who="Donfield" reply="85" id="3073783"] This is not invalidation, it is nihilism . [/quote] As Inigo Montoya once said, "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means." [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Perhaps you meant Denialism which kinda sounds the same but is very different.
I would give you karma but you're still posting in this @#$%ing thread [e digicons]>_>[/e]
[quote who="Jafo" reply="59" id="3071599"] Quoting JCD-Bionicman, reply 58I love it when people use words they probably dont even know the meaning to themselves. Its like a child trying to pick up a buster sword. What were you saying here? Which word has you confused? What possessed you to presume the statement - "Half-Life, Portal and More! Valve Games Are Now Available on GameStop PC Downloads!" should be read "Half-Life, Portal and More! Valve Games Are Now Avail
Interesting commentary on the input provided by a beta. Part of the reason I concentrate on crashes and stability issues is usually regardless of how I feel about a system or dynamic theres already an opinion out there that states it. I will say that FE is heads above E:WOM at this point. Where as E:Wom did tons of things badly, FE does less things better. But there does seem to be something missing from the overall game which would increase playability. Doing o
[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="11" id="3070149"]First, already +8str is gamebreaking. Then there's books. And I'm telling you, in the long games, you get most of these random accessory items. If you want to set a limit to say 5 or 6 items, then you won't see the limit in your short games. But I get 25 items in one inventory and I equip most. And that turns a strong character into an ubergod.[/quote] How are you getting so many items.. I play on epic and rare
[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="9" id="3070113"]You can get more than 3 by wearing more than 1 item. There are multiple items that boost the same stat. Ex band of might + band of the berserker = 8 str.[/quote] But again your ignoring the fact that in a normal game the chances of you getting both are rather slim. As i'm sure you know there are different rarity settings for each item. The extremely rare ones you may not see in 10 or 20 full play throughs. While those 2
[quote who="alaknebs" reply="5" id="3069877"]obviously, he didn't know there's a fighting game series that does pretty much the same thing already..... some japanese thingy in ps1 (Bushido Blade 1, 2) pick a samurai or some such, pick a weapon and bash away at each other... with various stances. apparently something from the same dev called Kengo.. though not sure if it does the same thing[/quote] Bushido blade was awesome.
[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="4" id="3070042"]It's pretty damn pressing, since no matter the balance you can create an ubergod with infinite items.[/quote] Thats assuming you find any good ones. The ones you gain via the tech tree are pretty ho hum. So you would need to find a lot of good rings etc before thats an issue. I personally haven't come across more than 3 or 4 random loot rings per game. So unless your gonna limit it low to like 2 rings and 1
Why should there be a limit [IMG]http://i499.photobucket.com/albums/rr357/fistalis/mr-t1.jpg[/IMG] Why do you think Mr.T was so strong?
I stopped reading after you suggested 3rd edition was was worth playing, more or less better than 2nd edition. No way I could take your comments seriously after that.
I ran into this on one my games.(both the save and autosave for that particular game ran into this)Started a new game and Haven't had it happen since though.
[quote who="Savyg" reply="24" id="3067898"] Have you noticed how many games use Steamworks? 'Not buying them' isn't an option unless you rarely play games. As for me I've gone back to retail over bandwidth concerns, but for digital I currently prefer Impulse over Steam after this new content delivery system garbage. If they convert everything to the new system I'll be the first to abandon purchasing from them.[/quote] I don't g
