Did that too. Then send friend invites to a few more people who looked familiar. Then decided that it was enough socializing for one day

Yeah, Echelon is the player VS player faction. I'd say keep an eye out for win X matches contracts and leave it until you have the perks you need. What is your player vs player loadout by the way?

Player VS Player is suffering from some bugs, exploits and aim-bots. There apparently is a trick with a certain layout to instantly heal to full hp and shields for example. Add to that that certain infectors make for amazing sniper weapons without the need to aim... On a normal team, facing a normal team. I get about 3 kills per match. On a good team, when things go my way, I can get double that or more. But the games when I get 0 kills because the moment I span I get slaughtered aren't that rare either A lot of people just keep away from it alltogether. You don't need to do all the PvP pursuits to reach 5000 ego anyway.

I made an alt on the US server by the way, so if people are playing, let me know which server and we can try to hook up.

It gets repetitive. You control three characters (you can swap freely between various characters of a number of classes in town) but have one action bar for all three, making the end result similar to playing one character who's body parts you have to micro-manage... They tried to add some customization through implants. As Worst said: its a charming setting in post apocalyptic IKEAland. I found it managed to occupy me for about 10 hours and for that it is worth the price of a pint

Just got back in after a three week holliday. Been playing Talisman Prologue. Having a blast with it and remembering the good old days when we used to play the board game. Downloading Dragon Commander. Fired up Shadowrun Returns (first impressions not too good). Patched Defiance and Champions Online. Uninstalled Borderlands 2 after being honest with myself and admitting that I wont be playing it.

Don't know whether Thiaf will have good AI; the murder simulator, QTEs, departure from the series' ethos and everything else seem to be pretty locked in though. And the only theft will be optional ?

You should have read the fine print: Tomb Raider1 1 product may not include tombs, raiders, raiding or any combination thereof.

I won't. Then people on Steam would see me purchasing a Bioware game. What would that do to my reputation?

Steam Flash Sale for another 5 hours.

It's the best of the full novel length Gotrek and Felix novels. Demonslayer is fun as well, but fromt here on it goes downhill. The original concept of Gotrek and Felix just fit the short story format better. One or two novels it could still last, but after that it loses its charm. Personally I just finished the Windup Girl. Good book. I think the link to my opinion on it is here (if I got the right link)

I play the PC version. The recruit thingie is that you follow a referal link to make your trion account. But its broken anyway, so the referals dont count

Seeing how 4 takes place in virtual reality, Gat can show up and still be dead.

And you didn't sign up as my recruit, right? NOOOOOOOOOO! Hope you enjoy it

My favorite 4X. That's a fact, look it up. Anyone have a spare Football Manager or Chivalry card to trade? I've got doubles of just about everything else. I got a Chivalry I think.

Looking at IMDB, Diane Michelle has done a lot of Daisy Duck and some not too important npcs in various meh games like Mass Effect or Skyrim ( ) Sumalee Montano you have also encountered before. I quote from wookiepedia: "(...) she aspired to become a full-fledged Sith student at the prestigious Korriban Academy. This goal was finally within her grasp when, shortly after harassing a newcomer to the Dreshdae colony, she became one of a small group of hopefuls selected to compete for the opportunity to undertake the “final test” that stood between prospective and true Sith students. To her surprise, the stranger she had encountered earlier was among that group (...) (she) died at the hands of Revan in the Valley of the Dark Lords." And: " (she) was a Human Jedi Knight on Dantooine during the Jedi Civil War, who was furthering her training under the renowned Master Zhar Lestin. She was close friends with the then-Padawan Juhani during her training there as well. (...) she felt the strength of the Force within (Revan) and stopped him on his way to talk to the Council. She berated him for not wearing proper robes, under the assumption he was actually a Padawan." Also: "When (she) saw Shen come out of the estate, she ran to him and held him in a fierce embrace. (they) both thanked Revan for all he had done. Before they could leave, Ahlan came up to them with two assault droids flanking him. He soon began to shout obscenities at Revan, Shen, and (her). Soon after, Nurik came out of his estate with his own two battle droids."

I never really got into it much, only dabbled. It seems to be a great game. I haven't read anything bad about it really. At the time it was a bit too complicated for me - you know how that is though: state of mind etc can grreatly affect how you play and giving the same game a chance a few months later could result ina completly different experience. The little I saw though was quite positive. I really enjoyed the space stations you could construct to spread your influence.

I wonder in what order they are sending them out. Some kickstarters send things out in order of backer tiers. Obviously this is not the case here.

I will be on holliday around launch anyway, so don't care when I get the mail

I think I'll pass on the rest of the sale. I have such a backlog, I wont have time to even consider playing anything I'd buy now till next year anyway.

I don't understand what the reason is behind a limited number of backpack upgrades. It isn't realism - that word does not even belong in the same sentence as this game.

If you have to write a five thousand word character background it takes longer thana day anyway. Or a ten thousand word character background...

All you have to do is add someone on steam to your friends list like say this guy. You can then right click on their name in the friends list and select "invite to trade". A new window will pop up for the trade itself. From there it's just drag and drop the items you want to trade. Send you an invite as well.

That is the worst fight in Conquistador by the way.
