GOGBook, innovative! Mac support. Wonder what this announcement with Interplay is supposed to be.

Would you really be seeing all that much of them, based on the perspective though ? Given that, just have to worry about the way they're written.

Well, if you're using Firefox, adblock the images, simple. Depends on the avatar though, some sort of weird epilepsy inducing one would probably get nixed by a mod.

Specialized ammunition and grenades would be a nice addition, and you having to make them, but oh well. Lost a bunch of guys due to a car explosion, had to abort and evac the 3 survivors, so my current game looks like a failure. Shame too, I got a Major and got the Squaddie bonus for all new guys - which actually sucks as I have 8 or 9 snipers.

The messages he left about US foreign policy might indicate he's not actually a conspiracy nut that much and that's just being played up to make him sympathetic. Wonder if they can sue him for damages though ?

Well, they could add a minigun, autocannon from the original. Or ammo types, maybe.

Maybe we'll get DLC to add some more inventory slots. Although I guess it'll just be new alien types and guns.

That's kind of a shame, especially since lasers can burn out light cover (something the AI seems to mystically do to my troops all the time incidentally) or just use it to torch a vehicle.

Hm, panic's not fun unless they've got a rocket launcher near a gas station.

Mostly retreading stuff, though. Thought we'd moved on to that Pakistani girl getting shot.

I like the bit about this being a CIA plot, heh. I'm not holding my breath for anything solid to come out of it, hopefully she doesn't get killed when she returns home though.

Not to impressed by that being an 'option'. I guess he doesn't want KS to take a cut, out of all the things in this I'm surprised to see that is an issue to not back it, but that's people.

Well, nuts, so much for the forum quieting down.

Well am trying to brush up on the language, doing little silly exercises or some problems from ACSL back in the day, but a nice small project might be cool to do.

Ah ok, well hmph, that's kind of disappointing but can think of why they did it that way. I wish I could pick the specialty the troops fall into, it seems random to me but might be otherwise. The flush ability the Assault troops get is great, well assuming the overwatch shots actually hit

This was pretty huge news last week, it is Chris Roberts and the game's ambition is impressive (potentially over-reaching). But yes, C&C is the forum for it, to play junior forum moderator. He really should have used KS, might have withstood the hits, better.

Old news. Also thread exists related to this - http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/61275-squadron-42/

Related to the US Debate last night

As I play I have to snicker at the visuals of shooting through walls or cars, LOS doesn't match up with the actual map it seems. For the abduction missions, are the aliens placed on the map at the start or do you trigger their spawning ?

Best way to view happy people though, over a camera. They freak me out in person. Trying to think up a good learning project to do with C++ today.

I'm hoping it's just a statue.

That stream was a bit meh, too spammy with all the jackals in the chat and them picking stupid stuff to respond to. Although Sawyer did answer some good questions when he wasn't drowned out by all the yelling tipsy people.

Sawyer seems rather unhappy at the entire experience. Or he has a good poker face.

Even on a camera, I still can't watch or be around drinking folk.
