Steam != every DD in the world... i am using few digital services without problem... they have less intrusive DRM, which does not infringe on my customer rights...

I don't have problem with Digital Downloads, I do have problem with Steam's DRM...

Depends on DRM... Steam only games without any other possibility of download/buy them is automatic skip for me...

yes

I'll hold you onto this if you do buy it... I have no problems boycotting products, there is plenty of other products to choose from with much better offerings of DRM... I will not be left without having fun

that would be 1st bethesda game, so unless you give me source...

D2 had an option of very simple zoom ... not seamless, it only made your character 4x bigger and the view of surroundings 4x smaller, but it had it nevertheless... so i do not think D3 will be without the possiblity to have at least such a simple zoom aswell, unless ofc Kottick found something "more appropriate" for the franchise...

I did read all the posts. If you understand latency, then why'd you make a post that would infer I should ascribe various "signs" to you? 720p at 32-bit color is already going to exceed even the 25Mbps connection's bandwidth without data compression (it's about 30 million bits for a single frame). Obviously there is data compression involved, which is why I'd be curious how it runs at a lower bandwidth. Because this would actually allow me to infer if the latency at 25 Mbps is due to the bandwidth, or the latency of going through server switches and/or any other restrictions on the latency. Stating "And it is much worse than i have thought ... average latency of ~180ms on 25Mbps Fibers??? Don't make me laugh..." without any other frame of references literally indicates that you feel bandwidth is the sole contributor of the latency. You don't have enough information to make a "don't make me laugh" comment, yet you did. Bravo /clap You're the only one that brought up 1 Mbps. No kidding the service will suck if you are below the requirements. I'm sure today's games don't run on my TNT2 Ultra very well either! *sigh* And you are making mistake, that you think that everyone on the earth without the need of posting 2 pages long essay about how speed of light cannot be overdone, and therefore you can't get faster latency with your 1Gbps fiber, does not have a clue about the stuff he is talking about... the faster bandwith contributes to lower latency as well, because you have more bandwith assigned to the same number of data. therefore you have lower chance of collisions and lower chance of your packets getting re-routed through some L3 device in Malaysia, while traveling from your home computer to the OnLive server... thank you for your understanding...

That's why I am saying, that your latency will go skyhigh with 1Mbps... *sighs*

And it is much worse than i have thought ... average latency of ~180ms on 25Mbps Fibers??? Don't make me laugh... I'd be more curious how it'd still run on 10 Mbps connection. Giving it a 4000000 Mbps connection isn't going to make the latency very low if you have half an understanding of how networking works. read few posts up... i know how it works... But if you have 1Mbps connection for Onlive, your latency in 720p will go into the heaven, because, you do not have enough bandwidth to get all the required data... For awesome latenscy you need to be close to the server and have enough bandwidth to handle all the data... read 1st all the posts before you point at someone with "stupid" sign... thank you...

OMG I shall not care about something posted on TEH INTERNET? blasphemy!!! Well, you acted like I was forcing you to subscribe at gunpoint. You did not?

OMG I shall not care about something posted on TEH INTERNET? blasphemy!!!

Obviously the OnLive lag comes on top of that, but to put things into perspective games already have way more than 5ms input lag. then we have misunderstood again that 5ms of lag is the lag of the refresh rate of your TV/monitor only... i was not talking about graphics lag, which you are mentioning at all But ye, i should have been much clearer about it i think

I know, how latency works, i was speaking more about the cap for high resolution gaming... And tell me why i have to be happy with just fine input lag of 150+ ms, if i can have the same game on PC with 1.5xFullHD resolution on PC or FullHD resolution on PS3 with input lag of max 5ms and even pay monthly fee for such a service???

And it is much worse than i have thought ... average latency of ~180ms on 25Mbps Fibers??? Don't make me laugh...

Voiced protagonist. Or more like very harsh deadline by EA

I think, this is a proper time to link this http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessag...topic_id=128252

+9000 :D

they dont care about lag, they care about lower costs of development, no or very low royalties, and monthly fee from the service

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7052420.stm Consider this: you've essentially got the 4 biggest names in the industry swinging their weight behind the PC market: Blizzard, Valve, and now Electronic Arts and Activision. I would say more that EA is more interested in a platform like OnLive, than PC gaming

Huh? It would be perfectly canon. The Blight has been stopped. Darkspawn returned to the Deep Roads. Now we can focus on things that don't have a design ripped off directly from the LotR movie and D&D. I know, but that is just wishful thinking I bet we get something like Darkspawn Mk. II or more like Mk. X if we count all the dark spawns/presences/evils in all previous Bio games

Remember, when you do this, you will not be able to post on Battle.net forums, after the release of Starcraft 2, and you will be unable to be friended outside the game you are playing... http://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/2010/07/w...out-realid.html don't mind the elitist language, just do the steps he depicts, and you'll be safe from leak of your real name, unless you install some malware infested addon happy and safe gaming

yes yes next time i post "and yes, i do think it is "good fight" because he just pointed out how any RANDOM real name can be easily abused in a few minutes, thus showing the biggest flaw of this idea..." so even you will spot the difference

Oh noes such a big mistake that i have made... I am ashamed, you got me there... now i have to go hide away from public and never come back to the light of the sun... Arrivederci cruel world, i have failed you!!!
