The article mentions "grandfathering" of already unlocked phones. The rooting community stipulates "this is for educational purposes" type disclaimers that are plastered on all their ROM's. In any event, you can still "Flash" after restoring original ROM to reset the counter.

HW3 is the Holy Grail of Games. It remains the eternal quest. The travesty of HW series in general was the improved progression for HW to Cata, and then HW2, which suffered from being rushed to publication, but still managed to become one of the most revered and popular titles of all time in it's genre. Why the rights are not ripe for a developing publisher is a mystery. Some one should do a kickstarter just to aquire it, and then follow up with a develop

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="9" id="3310869"]It is a joke. There's a phrase you say if you just meet someone you are suspicious of, like "Okay, Bill, if that is your real name". Your user name is not a name though, so he changed it to number. I think he is just kidding with you though.[/quote]Yes, it was my attempt at being clever because a number for a username seemed quite odd to me. And thank you though because I got a rather good chuckle out of it :-)

Following. I must say, twitch is pretty cool in that you see and hear the entire game from player advantage. It's surprising how fast it is.

Kudos out to Nightraid3r - He has taken the ball and run with it: Sins "Academy" Opening Now Sins - Play and Learn with the Pros He is someone of exceptional skill level, and if given the chance, anyone would be privileged to call him a sponsor. Would like to see some standards discussed
The concept of a SINS Academy has crossed my mind many times over the years. More than cliche is the idea that the life blood of any game is new blood, but acceptance into the MP community is a grind. We all know this, and we all know why: we went through it. Central to any effort at improving the player base is willingness on the part of the new player to learn, and by learn I mean conform. The MP community has made strides in recent months to embrace those

[quote who="DirtySanchezz" reply="3" id="3304625"]It's really great that this is now an issue. We never had enough people online and enough games in the game setup area for this to have ever been a concern.[/quote]What he said. Nice to see like 20 games up, but if trend continues; another filter would be "games with AI". Majority of new players seem to prefer playing AI in their games.
Are you're talking about a string of games where you have roughly the same players? The thought occurs to me that if this is the case, you could negotiate your terms ahead of time so it was understood the picking order would alternate.
It's just plain greasy when an Orky slithers unnoticed into a grav well and starts rapid deployment (or just normal deployment for that matter). You instantly have to assess if you can respond effectively, or just write off the grav well altogether. Personally, I think there should be an audible annunciation like a warning klaxon when an enemy Orky starts building. I mean, come on; are they too far out in orbit that the planetary defenses can't pick them up? Or
Work around is to enable window mode in video settings from the main menu, then disable before a game.

With one or two exceptions (that I've seen), the "Chinese lag" phenomenon seldom is a problem. Those that do however seem to be more intermittent than constant. Perhaps as you, or somebody, suggested last night - Chinese play behind communist firewalls and use proxy's to game, and this causes inherent lag. In last nights game, one of the players simply named "long" was at the losing end of a really long (pardon the pun - there were 4 Chinese on that team) game, an

[quote who="Apheirox" reply="24" id="3301225"]There are two main reasons I don't MP Sins: The first is I hate playing 4x speed, turning this otherwise almost turnbased game into a StarCraft'esque clickfest where DPS is more important than strategy. The second is having to play people taking the game so seriously they forget it's just that.[/quote]For the record; I don't believe by any stretch of the imagination this game could be considered a turn based game since the entire p
Desyncs are rarer than mini-dumps, and crash to desktop even rarer. Both seem to still occur regardless of time in game, but generally later in larger games. Players will report mini-dumps sometimes after game has completed, but then unable to view charts. There was a brief period when a test server was up for this purpose, but don't know what came of it if anything.
