Gorgon

Yeah I have a friend who paid close to 25000 Dkk for a top of the line mac laptop, and it's not like he is made of money or anything. I just can't fathom why people are willing to pay that much more for a few extra bells and whistles and a nice design scheme. It's a computer, not a new kitchen or a car.

What evidence, old bits and parts of a non functioning enrichment facility appearing here and there. But, I suppose in debunking the prewar scaremongering one can lose track of the fact that Sadam unquestionably would have developed whatever weapons he could to gain an advantage had he not been constantly pressured and threatened not to.

Can you update from the old one. I'm not sure I have enough contiguous free space without defragmenting first. Old 750 gig hd, lots and lots of clutter on it.

Bethesda being Bethesda I don't think we are going to get much in the way of New Reno sleaze. A bit funny how blowing someone's head open like a ripe melon in slow mo is fine, but too much skin is a definite no-no.

The Bush administration did a number on Hans Blix, attempting to make him appear incompetent and naive, no different that what happens in an election. Fortunately it mostly backfired and Blix was able to respond later after he retired.

I applaud his courage, or utter lack of shame.

If you had automanage on the AI would build loads of largely useless city watch units to compensate for low public order which would drain your treasury. If you clicked off auto recruitment they would rebel just as often which kinda defeated the purpose of auto management.

In Rome and TW2 settlements needed a lot more attention than in Empires, In Rome you practically had to park a full stack next to certain regions and massacre the population ever 5 turns or so to keep them in line. I refrained from building walls in my furthest colonies for that very reason. I prefer the Empires way where there are almost always effective non military countermeasures to rebellion.

I am just a regular mortal student in this scenario.

Aren't the testers given very specific jobs. I bet no one thought making judgments on the overall feel of character progression was worth their time.

The 'professional juror' system has some advantages. It really cuts down on Johnny Cochran type shenanigans that aren't based in law. There is no use for Jury profilers or other pseudo science wizards who can supposedly tell you who is going to vote for what and whether wearing a red tie to court is a good idea or not.

Wrong thread

They might well have shot themselves in the foot with the time it has taken to implement this. It's not out yet and already old news. A belated addon to a yesteryear game.

Although I may have gotten a question wrong as I had to use the french mirror site.

Fail on Takeda Shingen

Nothing quite says 1950 and style like a big band . It's a shame the 50s is just before jazz got progressive and truly interesting Ben Webster was so smooth his sound made him cry on stage.

It could be anything, it doesn't need to be from Japan, it just needs to be in Japanese. I'm still pretty inept at forming sentences on the fly as opposed to reading though so something relatively simpler might be better.

Yes but Kant was defining ethics, not arguing that telling the murderer where the victim is was the better option.

It doesn't have to be a uniquely japanese topic.

I would have liked to see longer scripted 'adventures' in the wasteland. A computer terminal is not sufficient for me to provide a back story for an area. I really liked 'Rogers Rangers' for instance, there weren't many missions of that caliber though. Bethesda are still pretty bad at character interaction, that is the dialouge screen, but the extra time they spent on some NPCs does show. and ohh yeah,The pipboy map needs to be improved, having to backtrack because you couldn't find the correct exit was a frequent source of annoyance. Obsidian is probably not going to spend time they could have spent on their content correcting interface problems in the engine, I'm just saying it needs doing, by someone.

I'm doing a show and tell for my Japanese class where i'm supposed to present a topic and take questions on it. Basically I can't think of anything. Suggestions NB : no it may not involve bukkake.

I remember when I got Genghis Khan with my assassins the very first turn the golden horde appeared, the next turn I bought up 3/4 of the now mercenary horde with my diplomats. I captured all of Russia just as I ran out of florins from supporting them. Total war 2 also made bribing so expensive it would never ever be worth the cost, and made the AI so good at it you could never trust a stack without a general to be there the next turn. You couldn't get the enemy units either. They would just disband and disappear. I kinda missed having a zoo of exotic turncoat units.

In Medieval 2 they made assassins so bad they were a complete waste of the 500 florins per man in upkeep, pretty soon you would have 10 or 15 inept assassins who only got worse with every missed attempt, and generated nothing but bad PR for your factions, possibly lowering it so much you would lose alliances. In medial 1 you could just generate 30 or 40 assassins and have them kill each other and you would automatically end up with a handful of 5 star assassins, who you would of course send to a friendly region near rome. heh. Another tactic was just to move 2 stacks into rome and kill the pope every time he made a comeback. You would still have 1 turn to start your crusades and get the special units.

Heh. Well I enjoy listening to other languages, getting a glimpse into another culture. Hollywood remakes are the smaller sin on the scale though. Dubbing is unforgivable. Unless it's a kung fu movie, then it's somehow agreeable.

Hmm, looks like [REC] isn't available in the states. I don't mind a remake if the original is in a different language. As long as it is done decently. Subtitles are a wonderful thing. Besides it's Spanish, don't you all get that in school.
