This is about Thermopylae right? Didn't know it was a comic book, which explained some of the art style in the trailer.

Medieval II: Total War

Well, the 'Hawks are really on a roll right now. Getting Havlat back doesn't hurt either.

Well, Company of Heroes never really claimed to be anything like Close Combat as far as I know.

Craig MacTavish was fined for his questionable comments towards Mick McGeough. Bobby Clarke seemed to be fined every other week.

Alternatively, and this is something I have seen other threads do, is to not let new users start new threads until they hit a nominal post count like 50 or so. At least as a stop gap. Some may seem it's a bit draconian, but I think any legit user will not have that much of a hard time getting to 50 posts, especially if they're active enough to be starting new threads. Heck, you could probably make it 5 posts. Or even 1.

predictable. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The ^_^ face implied it was a joke. If I was being more serious, I probably would have said something along the lines of: "Says the guy that kept arguing with me about how crappy the radial menu was in NWN, when I was talking about pause in Multiplayer" or "Says the guy that kept arguing with me how pause would not work in a persistent world, when I already acknowledged the point numerous times over (despite never making such a claim either)" or "Says the guy that compares the athletic ability of people he's never met before to that of people with polio, because of what he's seen in photographs" (Oh wait...you were probably joking. Hopefully my sense of humour wasn't that far off!) or "Says the guy that thinks I'm making stuff up just to 'be contrary,' (when ironically, the only mistake I really made was their food preference. I forgot about their love for the small Japanese food place across the street from their office. I don't usually go with them to that so I overlooked it). Sorry if my experiences dealing with the few people at Bioware I actually hang out with doesn't echo the impressions you get from a picture. I can't really help you there. or "Says the guy that starts talking accusing me of believing that Biowarians 'not snack at work [sic]' when I never made such a statement. I said that when I'm visiting them they don't snack." or "Says the guy that criticizes people for their anecdotal evidence, despite using his own" or "Says the guy that thinks having an OPTION for providing functionality in a game such as NWN for pausing in multiplayer (I cannot stress enough, how OPTION was stated again and again) somehow means that the 'interface' doesn't work for everyone (I particularly enjoyed that one)" or "Says the guy that, once shown he was misinterpreting someone's original post, continues attacking a point with the original interpretation despite numerous clarifications from the other side that you're reading things the wrong way." And this isn't from discussions with me, but from discussions I have seen you have with other people. For instance, an issue with you and a certain Bethesda employee had him saying the term 'more realistic' whereas you took it purely as 'realistic' and proceeded to mock him continuously alleging that his claim was absolute realism, which he never did. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were a lawyer. or "Says the guy that tells me to 'get over it' (and then conveniently shrugs it aside when asked what exactly I should get over), but had no problems making off topic asides in this thread." That thread is precisely the reason why after verifying the incident with other people, I opted on just leaving the conversation about Casavir attacking party NPCs, rather than mention I was wrong. To come in later and see you taking a thread off topic simply because I posted a statement that went against your absolute truth of the "idiocy" of MP in a D&D style game (btw, you also conveniently ignored the references I made to playing MP in games such as IWD, since you were such a stickler for the MP experience being a D&D MP experience, which may have predisposed me to being okay with pausing in MP since we did it a lot there. I take it back, maybe you ARE a lawyer). "Get over it" indeed. I could continue going on, but that'd probably just be predictable. Says the guy that quoted himself. ^_^

Bit of a blah game, but some excellent shot blocking by the team.

Says the guy that posts in character for many years ^_^

He's been all over the place it seems. I remember him being in both the UK, and later Saudi Arabia.

Get over what?

am guessing that pizza counts as a resteuraunt food. in any event, you was talking 'bout going to bio... now you is talking 'bout going out to eat. you gots a hard time staying focused on stuff lately. HA! Good Fun! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, you suggested bringing snacks, which no one does. Instead of getting snacks, we just go for something to eat when we get hungry. We do go to Boston Pizza on occassion, but typically do not order pizza. Usually pasta or an entree salad. A couple of the guys really like Olive Garden, but that can be a bit rich for my lowly intern blood. I hardly know everyone at Bioware, but the people I visit fit more the skinny nerd than the fat nerd.

Nah, if we go for something to eat it's usually down the road to one of the restaurants.

SteveBinhThai? It was always an interesting amalgamation. I wasn't sure what it meant.

Or I could just go stop by and say hello

Shhh ... projection. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm honoured. I think

I wouldn't say they're THAT unathletic. I think some of them are joining the same floor hockey league I am in for next season.

Hey, my posting has declined in the past few days.

My name is Allan Schumacher

This would not be all that dissimilar to the original game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What? NWN1 had 2 expansions.. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Expansions do not qualify under "support" for a game in my opinion. They are another product sold for profit. The post you quoted only spoke about patches and support. You can't see definitively one way or another whether or not they are working on an expansion pack. Perhaps the rest of Obsidian is working on an expansion pack, while the Live Team takes care of interim updates and patches. Assuming Obsidian wants to do an expansion pack.

This would not be all that dissimilar to the original game.

Why are you apologizing? The only person I'd value more than Iginla would be Kiprusoff.

Heh, they want to do everything possible to eliminate Arabs?

No, and it sucks. Grrrr... :angry: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Am I the only one that has no problems ignoring them? I rarely turn them off because I don't really read them anyways. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You can skip dialogue (mouse button? can't remember off-hand because it has quickly become a learned reflex) after the initial and before the last screen, as well as pause it. And I read it faster than they speak, so I always skip at least some of it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Errr, I wasn't disputing that you could skip through them. I was talking about not reading them and just watching the cutscene and listening to them talk.

I was at that game. Certainly wasn't expecting that. Atlanta's starter had already hurt himself and was subbed out to start the third, so when the goalie was ejected, they finished the game with no goalie.
