@Bonscott I have had no issues with SC3000 over the years, have had it installed on XP, Vista 64 and have had it on win764 since release. I have the unlimited version, i wonder if it has some patch included that affected compatibility. Shame you have issues with it man, i still fire it up every months and lose myself in the city for a week or so!!

Like i didn't care for client based gamin already, read this article today that made me shiver. Rumour: Valve Possibly Making Steam Orientated Console I'm sure (provided it's done right) this will be a success, but will it be the beginning of the end for buy at retail games? It's not like that's not already on the decline.<br
Ohh, ok, i get you now. Spiderants for instances.... My usual build is Mordacai and i focus on snipers, with SMG support, so i often am after cric hits anyway.
[quote who="Othello" reply="6" id="3097734"]What about the creatures where it was obvious one person was supposed to distract them while the other takes them down from the back? Didn't that get on your nerves?[/quote] Perhaps i don't take the game as seriously as you or something, but i have no idea what you are on about.
[quote who="the_Monk" reply="290" id="3097671"]I'm sorry........brad has just reiterated what the entire gaming-dev world has known for a long long time. This isn't news people. If you think it is/was (and if you feel brad's post was in any way necessary) then you are way out of touch with the 'gaming world' these days.[/quote] Whoever said one needs to stay in touch with anything. There this thing called a life some of us have. I like how you second guess Brad
I hate client based gaming, but i like your post Brad. I understand alot more now what your trying to do and why, i just wish doing so wouldn't force me to install a client. I still won't play rebellion through steam, but i can live with why you are doing it. :)

Your issues Fistalis, is why i don't like gaming clients in any form. I do see the advantages, but they are far outweighed by the possibility, as in Fistalis case, of losing access to "your" games. (your: implying ownership or license, whatever you subscribe to, i like to think when i buy a game, i own it :p) I'm not sure i get your car analogy Jafo, though i think i know what your trying to say, but i don't think it applies in this case. Yes, the onus is on the u
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="21" id="3096267"]No and No.[/quote] Thanks Brad. as i thought, me and Win7 will look upon Win8's few cool features with envy, but laugh at the UI.
Ahh okay, thx for that SS. Your tech must have been supreme early on Motti!!
Anyone who has been messing with Win8, can you answer two questions? Can metro be disabled? And does the Win8 desktop retain all functionality from Win7? (gadgets, right click menu's, use of docks, to name a few) thanks.
[quote who="BoobzTwo" reply="7" id="3095619"]PS: How do you give someone Karma ... I seem to have forgotten and there were several comments I would have so awarded???[/quote] Hover your mouse of the empty box at the bottom of a post, see red line, The thumbs up for karma, and other buttons will appear!
I wonder if this contributed to your score? That would have been a fine trick to use a few years ago!
Yay! Knew it wouldn't take you guys long!

[quote who="Vallu751" reply="6" id="3095340"]FE gets Smart Exception support[/quote] I read seanw3's post to mean he thought windows error reporting was sending his FE crash reports to windows and then somehow was getting to SD, so he thought his emailing of them was redundant. Perhaps i took it to literally when he said "windows" :)
[quote who="Gazz_" reply="3" id="3095348"]Multiplayer? Do not want.[/quote] I've played the game out in both SP and MP, and though MP can be fun, i don't think it's the same as SP. If Gearbox said we are doing away with MP, i could care less. Actually i'd rather prefer that i think, at least then Gearbox would have no need to use Steamworks with BD2.
[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="3" id="3095347"]Get your drivers at the computer maker's website.... not from a third party.[/quote] This cannot be stressed enough! If you post your needs in this thread, there are plenty of us here willing to help. It's not too steep of a learning curve, updating your drivers for the first time, but it's something you will be happy to become familiar with. :)
Like you say, better in MP, but with mods it can be quite good, if you don't abuse them. (which i do sometimes). The DLC's brought alot to the single player experience i thought.
[quote who="seanw3" reply="1" id="3094191"]If you are getting my crash reports from windows, what is the advantage of e-mailing them to you?[/quote] How would that even be possible? Brad doesn't specify where he gets the crash reports, but is it not a given he is referring to those emailed in by the FE beta testers???
Tell someone that if they go into a shop and ask them anything about drivers and have them look at, know that when you walk away, they will be laughing at you. I don't mean that to be nasty, but there is no need to take the Pc to a shop or worry about the safety of updating. I'm worried that you have perhaps never updated them before!!! As Pacov said, Video Card drivers are perhaps your most important ones to ensure they are updated. The rest, well if your runni
I wish i never did. I've had more fun with GC2 these past couple of months than i ever did prior. I only regret the community is not as it was whilst i am wallowing in my new found joy.
I was thinking about the minors. Are they modded minors?
Just under 400K with just two ships??? Wow, makes our old mumblers with thousands of ships not really worth all that effort. Great game mate! I'm still waiting on Impulse to sort out my TA reg info....i don't like being the slave to two masters, you would thinkg i'm either a SD customer or a Gamestop customer but somehow i have been split in two and distributed to my masters... I cannot wait to give Impulse the single finger salute..hurry up SD with the new S
