Gorgon

Well Can I ask you what your'e basing this analysis on? I didn't realize there was such a gap between Putin and the FSB, I always thought that was for plausible deniability It could be people he egged on in Ukraine but doesn't exactly control.

FEAR two had AI improvements that were pretty advanced for their time. Actually you could argue that they never got any better. Eyecandy was always more important.

Fear 2 was the good one if I remember correctly. After that it was cumulatively thinner soup and cheaper scares.

There has been an alien script, supposedly leaked on the internets and been around forever with just that premise. It was pretty decent actually. Ripley and Hicks going at the aliens again, who wouldn't want to see that.

You could try HW2 singleplayer. So far I've not been able to get past mission 9 in HW1 where there is a ship with unlimited health.

83 is pretty good though. You can't really ask for more.

Umm. I don't want to sound like a **** but isn't he too old for an acton role ?

Misson 9 in HW1 is broken too, missing trigger on the 'anomalous friggate'. Maybe AVG broke it. It seemed certain that the homeworld exe file was a virus. I know fake virus detections happen all the time with certain scripts but it's really rare to see it in a 'major' release. This is really underwhelming Gearbox. Have a look at the steam discussion. One would think surely this is the STEAM support page seeing as there is nothing but bug reports, but ... no. It goes on like that for 13 pages. If you haven't gotten this game already best wait for patches. https://steamcommunity.com/app/244160/discussions/2/ I broke my own rule and bought a game without seeing how it was recieved first, I just never imagined they would manage to break something that wasn't broken just by doing a glorified texture pack. I mean, how is that even possible.

Dying light is another example of my pet peeve about multiplayer co-op. It just plain sucks if you are not playing it in multiplayer co-op or the 'be the zombie' mode. Everything is pointless MMO repetition and the story is laughable. Is there some rule that says everything has to suck if a game has a multiplayer co-op element. It really leaves me with low hopes for ME4. Apparently it's going to be one of those as well.

One big flaw in HW1 was that the launch window didn't have any options other than launching everything or click launching. So if you had 50 fighers and 30 bombers and your MS was under attack by swarmers you would have to click 50 times to launch your figthers and not your bombers to avoid your bombers suffering heavy casualties. The same goes for corvettes. Surely there must be some way to the launch window to at least remember your hotgroups. They have the HW2 code don't they. It's fixed in HW2. Regarding the adaptive AI it does seem to get easier when your are getting weaker, but it doesn't seem radically different from how I remember it. I can't say for sure whether I think they ruined it. I think your resources determine enemy reinforcements, so if you run out the enemy isn't getting anything extra.

seems like something they intended but didn't complete.

By the way, do you get the soundtrack or do you have to hack it out of the data files like last time.

It doesn't say 'autogathered' anymore but you still get the RUs. I don't know about the adaptive AI. So far I haven't seen that in game but that might be because I was pretty evenly matched to begin with. But yeah, that pretty much ruined HW2 singleplayer once you had a large fleet or a lot of RUs. And it's not AI at all, it's just adaptive cheating. Whoever she is in the reboot she does a mean 'enemy captial ships detected'. Why redo the voice acting though if there are no new lines. Simply a matter of fidelity ?

Game appears to be broken on mission 3. After destroying the turranic carrier the mission fails instead of completes. Might be a bug orginal to the game, I seem to remember something like that. EDIT ; apparently a dodgy script. Reloading a few times to just before the carrier is destroyed solved it for me.

HW remastered singleplayer. Looks good so far, although I am a bit puzzled by the low sys rq. Maybe it's not practical/possible with the engine to give it all the dx11 eyecandy improvements it deserves. Haven't seen a large battle yet and that's the important part after all; consistent framerate in large battles. They could have taken care of the screentearing in the story animated screens at least.

Cool thread.

Skyrim was a steam exclusive, Steam workshop works, kinda, good for people who don't want to get too technical. Just one click on 'subscribe' and the mod is added to your load order. As far as organising your mods if you have more than a couple you will want a seperate program to make sure you copy and overwrite files in the correct order so they can be removed again.

Well that, and it surfaced that the hero of the story was actually a bit of a scumbag. Twitter comments and things he wrote in the book. It's understandable that there was a strong reaction in the arab world. Also the movie showed him shooting women and children in two scenes where he was pretty much vindicated Jack Bauer style. "I don't want to, but I'll have to saw off your arms to save the world and CTU'. You get the picture. It would have been smarter to have left that one to interpretation.

If we invested 150 mil $ in say, accident prevention and infrastructure we would save more lives guaranteed. High profile incidents like this sometimes lead to impulsive decisions. The less emotion surrounding legislation like this the better off we are going to be. This was just one nutjob. You don't legislate on the basis of one nutjob. I mean we are not talking Anders Breivik here. Two people got shot.

There is already a thread about the ultima reboot. You can post there to prevent dereailment. http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/70268-sequel-to-ultima-underworld-out-on-kickstarter-now/+

If it's just a practical consideration for the load on the backup system you could install on an external HD and create a seperate steam library there. The saves go in the windows document folder by default. You can copy them if you want to use them elsewhere. No way of installing without putting stuff on the C drive and the windows registry so it can't be 'invisible' for anyone who cares to check.

I wouldn't know how hot my GFX is, it's not something I keep track of. If firefox somehow sets my GPU to 100% comperable to when it's idling in the bios, that would be bad. It's pretty noticable.

After a while the stomach contracts and you stop feeling very hungry, that's how people can stand going on fast. It's not going to kill you. It doesn't 'cleanse' your system from 'accumulated toxins' though. Complete hippie nonsense.
