lol .."weak cold" What do you Swedes do in the evening when its that cold? What would you do in a land of cold and blonde beauties? Find many interesting ways to keep warm and entertained I imagine. Urg, having a nice wind chill kick in here. Actually the flash snow across the country is providing it's random amusement. And watching a long haired german shephard running around the garden in excitement with its fur getting blown all around it has its moment of cheap laughter. Sitting down with a hot cup of tea and sorting out my mothers drug supplies. The joys of fresh pharmacuticals added to the pile by the doctors and trying to remember just what goes where... I suppose you have a point but I guess I am more interested in what social experiences, apart from sex, that people do or rather what people consider are acceptable in those types of extreme cold. Is that your dog that can open the garden gate, I am sure it was you that mentioned it? In Oymyakon, coldest village in the world, people apparently larp Ice Queens. Thats actually a cool costume, I can imagine an Ice Wizard wearing that

http://sota.ultimacodex.com/interview-with-richard-garriott/ Guys here is a detailed interview that should address many questions and concerns. I am feeling a little better about the game after reading this.

! While, I'm not letting Colin off the hook, even after the "apology", I'm going to put more of the blame on J.R.R. Tolkien for bringing them to the forefront semi-pseudo-recent-ish-esque. I'd like to also blame whatever Germanic tribe thought them up in the first place, but I'm not sure exactly where to point the finger. On a more positive note, this also means Ziets. ZIIIIETS! Ziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiets

Valid points raised around Controller vs M&KB I'll be using the M&KB as recommended. I have just installed Far Cry and loaded all the necessary updates, I am excited about this game

Nice one, good to hear you want to complete it

I hate to say this but I am reluctant to pledge to this game yet, I am going to wait till the end of the KS campaign and I'll pledge only if they are short of there objective

I agree with most of what you are saying, but I have never suggested that the West doesn't use force. And yes I am talking about the degree and focus of force in the last 30-40 years that the West has used to achieve military objectives. Compare this to what Gaddafi and Assad did and you'll see the difference

Sorry but you need to go back and study the facts around the Libyan conflict, you are misinformed. The siege of Misrata was real and the town would have been reduced to rubble and all occupants killed if the West hadn't intervened http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Misrata Secondly there hasn't been a single historical case I can think of in the last 40 years where any Western country has decided they are going to destroy a whole town with no regard to the inhabitants. In other words indiscriminate killing of all civilians , including women and children. Yes innocents have been killed but this wasn't intentional as steps are almost always taken when the West intervenes to ensure minimal civilian loss. If you dispute this please provide links. In fact I can't recall a single incident in the last 40 years, or longer, where the West's intention was utter destruction of town or city. The military objectives are normally to defeat the enemy forces withing the town.

No new info whatsoever. Gee Bester try not to be too enthusiastic, I would prefer if you were negative as I find your excitement and constructive opinion false Oh no, I'm very excited. I don't even understand half things people are posting here. Torment KS is great, I donated all I could, basta. All this whining about "bwian fawgo, why didja use towment naaame?", "why didja stawt new ks befowe weleasing anythiiiing", "why you make towment it's DEAD bwiaaaan" - it's incomprehensible to me. I think I'm the most positive guy in here. Okay I apologize, you do seem to be one of excited people

lol .."weak cold" What do you Swedes do in the evening when its that cold?

In almost every case mouse and keyboard are far better for FPS games than a controller. True, good point

Hi Nep Holy smoke thats cold !!! What do Finnish people do in that type of cold? Do they stay indoors after work or do they go to Gym and maybe hit restaurants in the evening?

Guys I want to start playing Far Cry 3 (PC), is it better to use a Controller or Mouse and Keyboard in this game?

"Telling tales of minds that were overtaken by the darkness beyond the stars, of wills broken reaching too far into their own souls" I like this description

" the west lied in Libya" No, no my friend thats a spurious assessment of the reality of the Libyan conflict. The West extended its mandate to prevent a humanitarian massacre and catastrophe. And yes they did a little more than they were suppose to but it was completely necessary under the circumstances In order to truly understand my point you need to go back to the early stages of the Libyan conflict. I want you to forget the UN, the West, Russia and China then ask yourself a simple question. Seriously only one question in all these Western interventions is relevant "does a government have a right to use its own army, police and full force to suppress political unrest". I am hoping you say "no" In the Libyan conflict in the beginning the rebels were basically surrounded in Misratah, remember the "Siege of Misratah". Gaddafi would have happily annihilated the entire town and killed every man, women and child. He was a brutal and mentally unbalanced dictator who was never the legitimate ruler of Libya and who would have had no issues with the killing of vast parts of his population. How can anyone with good conscience allow any government that controls its own army to use that army internally within its own borders? The West broke the siege of Misratah and then continued to destroy Gaddafi's air force and tanks but it was the Libyan rebels who did the main fighting throughout the civil war. If you think the civilian causality list is bad in Syrian it would have paled in comparison compared to Libya if the West hadn't intervened. How can you not say that the West did the right thing? So what is more important to you, the prevention of the systematic killing of large segments of a population or that fact the West did more than the UN mandate stipulated? It doesn't matter if you say the West intervened for future Oil or reconstruction contracts, they did still prevent a genocide. And once again Syria is an example of what happens when the West is blocked from helping. Surly you can't think thats a better situation than Libya?

I agree 100%, this year is shaping up fantastically

http://www.vg247.com/2013/03/11/torment-tides-of-numenera-what-does-one-life-matter/ An interesting interview and good early insights into the game.

You have raised a good point, Assad had numerous chances to implement meaningful political change. He refused and believed he could crush political dissension through the might of his army and police.

Just the fact you are backing it on any level is a good thing. Nice one I didn't realize I would get a free copy of W2. Good to know.

Not too sure the aftermath of a glorious Western intervention would be very clean. Well the last two Western interventions have worked as expected. In Libya and Mali Western forces assisted militarily. The example of Libya is the perfect example of necessary regime overthrow, the West had no real troops on the ground but used there air power to assist the forces fighting Gaddafi. They destroyed his air force and tanks but they let the Libyan rebels do the ground fighting. Thats all the Syrian rebels asked for from the UN, they were prepared to the hard hand to hand battles. By using air power the West can play an important role in many conflicts without a protracted and expensive commitment

Once Assad is gone, and this is inevitable, its unlikely we will see a Western or Middle East form of Democracy. There are too many Islamic extremist groups involved with the rebels now. These groups are helping overthrow Assad but they have there own political agenda's and these groups will influence the new governments decision. The reality is I can't blame there influence as they are fighting and dying in the towns and fields of Syria in this war against Assad. If Russia had not vetoed Military action by the UN security council this war would have been over months ago and you wouldn't have had intervention by extremist groups, so I blame the failure of any form of Democracy that will be implemented squarely on the Russians.

I like this because now everyone who says they missed an oopportunity to pledge due to tiers being used or time zones will have no excuse
