Deraldin

If you had to knock out 15 people, that's not really "ghosting" a level.

We _have_ a goaltender!!!

Give us Ryan Smith instead and it's a deal!

Confirmed. Huet out indefinately. Jaroslav Halak has been called up from Hamilton. :confused:

Wow! What a steal for Philly! They really got a good deal for Forsberg! Forsberg to Nashville? Also, Kovalev is out for a few weeks.

I really liked the game but I've never finished it either. I've made it to the last chapter twice, but I always seemed to hit some bug or another that would prevent me from getting any further. <_<

The Leafs need more than Nagy. :tongue:

It says that it requires 270W for the OEM and 240W for the Retail. From what I've seen though apparently the 8800GTX was supposed to draw 220W but actually only drew 160W so we'll see what happens.

If only it was that simple. I'm a turtle at heart so the high level tech stand off really appeals to me. I look at a game like this and figure what's the point in the early units? I want to see the big behemoths lumbering over the battlefield not these piddly little T1 assault bots that get killed in a split second. This attitude doesn't really work against the demo AI on hard, because they seem to want to attack me early on.

I don't know if I would go quite that far, but it would make me curse your name for all eternity, or at least until I'm no longer known as Deraldin of the Damned System. :happy:

I spend more time modding/downloading than I play games nowadays... I spend more time benchmarking and overclocking than I play games nowadays Think I actually play oblivion? No I just run through the grass while checking my FRAPS fps LOL I spend more time here than I do playing games. :confused:

Seems like something you would buy. For the factor right? :D

OEM = 12.4 inches Retail = 9.5 inches

It's okay. Please ignore any and all posts claiming that you are a bot. Some posters just can't seem to tell the difference for some reason. And is it just me or does the skirmish AI in Supreme Commander fail to actually do anything on any difficulty below hard? Going from medium where the AI attacks you with maybe 2 ships every 15 minutes starting at the 30 minute mark, to hard where about 10 minutes in you start getting harassed by T2 gunships can be a little jarring.

I think it would probably bother me at first, however I think I'd get used it over time. It's not like you've got the 2 inch borders on my LCDs like I have on my CRT.

Stop spamming the movie thread or I'll have to report you.

The 102" tv is behind the times. Where is the 108" model that debuted this year?

You think they will be able to pick up a third first round selection?

Eww...

Unfortunately for myself my computer can barely handle a hundred units let alone a thousand.

I used about 8 T2 tanks, 8 T2 artillery and 4 T2 AA. I tried attacking with bombers earlier in the match but my bombers were always chewed to pieces before they could do any real damage.

I had a similar problem -- ground turrets are just too powerful. It took me a long time to build up a significant fleet to destroy the last two bases in the second mission of the demo. On the other hand, I was completely invincible to any attacks they threw at me because of my own turrets. There was nothing fun or exciting about it.. just waiting and more waiting for the battle to finish. Maybe it's different in skirmish.. What difficulty did you play the campaign on? I went through it on easy for a first run and unfortunately haven't been able to make a second run through yet because it keeps screwing up, but on easy at least it takes surprisingly few units to eliminate the last two bases.

The enemy air units are what always get me. I can handle the ground units as for some reason the skirmish AI seems to like simply massing T1 assault bots which are easily taken out by half their number in Mantis, or even just 3 rhinos. The problems I've been having are coming from the enemy T2 gunships. My interceptors can take them out, but they run out of fuel and ammunition and it takes forever to rebuild if you don't have a refueling pad. I've been quite enjoying my time with the demo so far, but I still have a lot to learn. It's really quite different from a lot of other RTS games. The economy isn't just "set it up and forget it" like most others. The basic mass extractors need to upgraded whenever you get the opportunity. Mass extractors are by far much better than mass fabricators. A T3 mass extractor is a huge target. For almost no energy expenditure you get 12 mass generation compared to a T3 mass fabricator which generates 24 mass, but also uses 1500 energy. The AI seems to have it's priorities straight at least in that it is targeting my resource production before anything else. So far I've lost three games in a row to the hard skirmish AI, all for different reasons. The first time I lost was because my commander thought he could take on a monkeylord by himself. My commander did indeed kill the monkeylord, but only because his destruction unleashed a nuclear blast that leveled 3/4 of my base. I wasn't prepared for any experimental units as I'd tried to build one against an easy oponent, but for some reason it would let me even though I had T3 engineers. My second game was lost because I couldn't keep my economy running with the constant attacks by enemy gunships on my mass extractors. Finally, my most recent game I tried establishing forward defensive locations at the "chokepoints" with shield generators, but I lost one of those locations when I couldn't get any air defenses up fast enough to counter the enemy gunships. Once the shield was down the enemy started marching through with T3 assault bots and I decided to quit. It felt as though I was only delaying the inevitable. I may have been able to win if I had stayed and attempted to finish my own monkeylord, but at that point I only had enough resources to finish building it or to switch over to base defense. <_<

Looks like Edmonton isn't going to be picking up Brad Stuart. Calgary just nabbed him.

You almost had them there at the end.
