Just read about the new delay, seriously, wtf???? I'm about to completely give up on this game.

I'm surprised people abroad even drink Stella. It's hardly considered more than sewer water here.Scottish perfected whiskey, Belgians perfected beer.
I've never been much a fan of Belgian beers. They tend to be too sweet for me. I want more bitter hops and/or richly toasted barley, not something that tastes like some apricots have been rotting in it.
Most Belgian abbey beers have a bitter, blond variant too, as opposed to the dark, sweeter kind.
Best beers though are the 'trappist', that are only brewed in abbeys. There are only 7 of those: Orval, La Trappe, Westmalle, Westvleteren, Chimay, Rochefort & Achel. Westvleteren, IIRC, can only be bought directly from the abbey.
Or resellers.

About to poor me another glass of Glenlivet, so I thought I'd pop in and say cheers.
Cheers!

Dokka Umarov(One of the leaders of Chechen separatists) took responsibility for the attack. Interesting thing is, he shunned terrorism before, but seems like, since last year, he has reversed his views.

Belgian beer.

Oh god, I almost want to go to my local Belgian bar(one of the best in US) and endure the crowd for some St. Bernardus Abt 12 or Tripel Karmeliet.

The problem is, you have to find it.Which means that you have to spend few hours driving around, trying to find stuff. Another problem, is that unless you do missions, you will have problems with ammo. So you kinda have to do some side missions before you can fully enjoy the game. Kinda like FFXIII.
-
He's mostly right, except for the battle system, which is really fun in FFXIII. Just not for the first 4-5 hours(which is bad, I know)
-
The only real complaint that some people have had is with the story, but from what I've seen the missions themselves are varied and super crazy.
Only played one mission, it was standard "go and kill these guys, but make sure these guys live"
I saw the opening story missions which included grappling up an awesome twin tower casino and rescuing a dude from the skybridge between them while getting shot at by helicopters and defending a dude by riding on top of his old ass car and tethering military jeeps to each other/lamps posts/bridge supports or just blowing them up spectacularly.
As for the Win 7 thing, I recently changed to it as well and there's no way I'm going back to XP ever.
Ohhh, those yeah, I played those through, they were alright. I was talking about the faction missions that come after that.

Now, if you want to know why we put an ex-KGB guy in a president's seat, I'll tell you the whole story...in few hours, once I get to work and have some free time
Oh, I know why. There's often a lot of stability and industrial/economic progress that comes with a dictator. It's just that it almost invariably comes at the cost of personal liberties and economic freedoms, as you well know.
I just wanted to see if obyknven was blindly accepting or actually worth talking rationally to.
Did you get your answer?I'd have to say no. Partly because I'm drunk, but more because it would be unfair to judge somebody by a few posts they made. I'm not happy to have frail defences of disturbing authoritarian fired back at me, though.
Stupid joke about a drunk Aussie goes here.

Lotsa words shoehorning people into tightly defined groups - biggest problem of american politics.

Hmmmmmmm. Do you known about praesumptio innocentiae?how many people he has murdered in cold blood as a spy for an idiotic ideology? Hmmmmmmm.
Said citizen of a country with 99% conviction rate. God forbid you ever have to appear in Russian court as a defendant.
EDIT: Also, throwing Latin around, when you can obviously use English makes you sound like a presumptuous idiot.

One of the first things I did, was to reenact 9/11. I guess I'm a horrible human being and I'm going to hell.
Eh? A game released in 2010 still has the Twin Towers in it? Methinks its time to update the graphics. Does it also still have the Collosus of Rhodes in it?
Wasn't Twin Towers, just some random skyscraper. Dunno about Collosus, but it does have the island from Lost. And your plane crashes when you fly over it.

I really, really wanted to give this a go but the Windows 7 requirement blocked that desire.What's wrong with win 7? It's awesome!

That's a retarded question. I really wish people would stop comparing games to RL.

I'm playing it when I have the time. It's freaking enormous, almost to the point of pissing me off. Found the Mile High Club yesterday, but missed it when jumping out of the heli to get there. It's definitely fun to play around with. One of the first things I did, was to reenact 9/11. I guess I'm a horrible human being and I'm going to hell.

Lol, all of a sudden a CNN journalist learns about rape games that existed for years and blows it over into an international scandal, while making the genre more popular than ever, gg.
These games existed for ages and didn't hurt anyone much. Now, all of a sudden, everyone is "ashamed" and "disgusted"
I lul hard for this, I do.

I'm 17 years old, from Russia. Ask your questions.
Why did you elect an ex-KGB communist as your leader?
I wrote a lot of text here, but I thought that it would be better to just post these links to the infamous GQ article, it explains it the best:
The article in English: http://ratafia.info/post/180606234/none-da...l-it-conspiracy
The article in Russian: http://gawker.com/5352827/
The article about the article: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.p...oryId=112530364
EDIT: Just to clarify, personally I wouldn't say anything as concrete as: "Putin did it", or "Chechens did it". However, the fact that current Russian government draws power from such tragic and still unexplained events, and yet taboos all talk about the issue, definitely undermines any credibility it may have.

In Soviet Russia, girls is smarter than YOU!yup, sounds like a standard issue modern 17 year old Russian.
Don't doubt it. Usually prettier, too.

limita ponaechalaNow, I'm a proud citizen of USA.
Democracy is gift of secret societes to mankind. Read it in "Founding Fathers, Secret Societies" by Robert Hieronimus and "On the Influence Attributed to Philosophers, Free-Masons, and to the Illuminati on the Revolution of France" by Jean-Joseph Mounier. Secrecy is democratic tradition.Obyknev, I think the question about the KGB revolves around how healthy it is for a democracy to take its elected leaders from a background of extreme secrecy, not to say anti-democratic traditions.yup, sounds like a standard issue modern 17 year old Russian.
-
I'd like to point out that obyknven is 17, which means that she was born in Russian federation and missed the "best" days of 1990's. As the matter of fact, she just started school, when our KGB friend took over and started spreading his propaganda. So she, likely, has no idea what free press, or real opposition is. Keep that in mind.
I think that if you want some better answers, you'll need to find someone in their 30's, who's had s chance to experience soviet union, free Russia and putin's Russia. And that's not me.

Yeah right, one of chechnya's main commanders during the first chechen war is currently the president of chechnya, sitting on the huge stream of money coming from moscow.
Heh.
I suspect you're going to get Wrath of Dagon dropping by to tell you that you're wrong soon.
Fact that Kadyrov fought against RF in the first war is well documented, as is the fact that he's on the official kremlin payroll.
It's great that we have Russians laying out the news heer. But i'm confused. Who is Russian here? It's never occurred to me to ask.I am. Born and raised in st Petersburg and a little town in south western Russia, somewhat close to both Ukraine and caucas region.
Now, I'm a proud citizen of USA.

A Russian nazi is the worst of all. Russia, a land of peaceful peoples has suffered at the hands of enemies for centuries. The suffering is almost bred into the soul. For a Russian to turn on his own govermentBahh, I hate current russian government. It's even worse than communist one we had.
