Me?

 

I don't really care, I just like to argue.

 

 

Quicksave is really handy, though

 

The windows key is nothing but trouble this is true. There is a registry hack out there that will kill it just as effectively as putting it in a drawer though.

Yeah?

 

Try having a sleep key on your keyboard. How about them apples?

What about in Hardcore mode, having a limited number of quick saves per X amount of time?

Yeah?

U can disable it in BIOS if it supports it, same with power button, it's under power management if at all, or in windows Control Panel -> Power Options -> Advanced -> Power Buttons (in vista or 7 U can use search tool, really handy)

 

Oh well, google also says http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/160600...button-keyboard

good luck with that.

Oh, I fixed it all right, it was my keyboard back when I had a Pentium 133MHz.

Yes some ps/2 relict, U must be really gentle with it I presume survived that long..

It's long gone

 

I think I still have that stupid keyboard, though.

 

Seriously, who needs a sleep button on their keyboard?

In all seriousness, I really wish they'd work on the saving system to make it less prone to corruption.

The same people who need play, stop and eject buttons for media files.

You know what annoys me though. After windows XP Alt+CTRL+DEL nolonger starts the task manager, it gives you the logon screen where you can chose to start the task manager, and a bunch of other pointless logon related choices.

try ctrl+shift+esc

I don't think you really need to save people from themselves.

 

 

Unless you were talking about the actual save files getting corrupted, which seems... unlikely

That feature was implemented to make the task manager selectable when in full-screen programs that changed the resolution of the screen. It should change the resolution when you press ctrl+alt+delete

Ctrl+Shift+ESC = task manager

No, your second guess was the correct one. But 'saving people' is sort of the local past-time around these parts.

That and speaking in tongues, and handling snakes.

If you mean trouser snakes, then yes.

Anyone know if New Vegas is getting an updated GECK?

Some new? info from Finnish gaming magazine Pelit:

 

- Weapons have unique/individual qualities. Some cause critical hits to head, others will damage your limbs severely for example circular saw will eat your fingers.

 

- Death animations vary depending which weapon you are using.

 

- Different gangs and villages might evolve during your gameplay while you are not watching. For example random Raider gang might find a hidden weapons cache and rise to power.

 

- One new picture (at least for me) which shows concept art of an NCR Ranger Armor.

The weapon part might be new...

I think that's new.

This sort of dynamic world would be great and really aide the sandbox-style of gaming as far as keeping the world interesting.

 

I think it is extraordinarily unlikely that it will be implemented to any sort of degree. Much more likely to see a continutation of the level-scaled, but static, spawns of FO3.

I hope this is the point where J.E. Sawyer pops in and sais it ain't so.

JE doesn't say very much anymore. Whether because of his Alien crpg experience or because Bethesda has everyone on the short leash or whatever, who knows.

 

 

But these days were lucky to get a "boo!" from him. Or anyone else.

- Death animations vary depending which weapon you are using.

 

I hope it means something more unique than just: "I have lost my head/arm/leg."
