Reply to Killer Floor in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

Just for info MMO's (Massively Multiplayer Online) are games such as World of Warcraft (MMORPG), Planetside (MMOFPS?) etc. Demigod, Killing Floor, Sacred 2 do not have a 'Massive' amount of people playing them together, Demigod can have up to 10. Killing Floor is a lot of fun, it's very shallow in what it does, but what it does it does well. It's worth the price if you enjoy this kind of game. Basically it's a slow multiplayer horror sur

[quote who="Zoomba" reply="25" id="2463484"]If a feature is defaulted to off, then no one ever knows it exists. Defaulting to on with the simple option to disable is the best balance between awareness and choice. If you really really hate it, turning it off is simple. [/quote] You heard of e-mail? You have mine and anyone elses who uses Impule. Just send a message to everyone selling the feature.

Frogboy if you want to compete with your main competitor I would advise you to not make the pop up default on. Yesterday I almost looked for the setting to not start the Impulse Tray icon on Windows start up, the last thing I thought was to look for an option to turn off the pop up, for once thing I didn't asume there would be one, and secondly because you added this annoyance to my PC without asking me how many more 'features' like this are you going to slide in there?

Reply to AvP3: What you think on this upcoming title? in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

I'm mildly excited about it for several reasons: I'm a MASSIVE Aliens fan. There was talk of a co-op mode, even a co-op survival mode, and if that is delivered I might do a sex wee. The graphics look fabulous, the realisation of the Aliens and Colonial Marines really captures the feel of Aliens the best movie in the series. Mildly apprehensive because: I watched a movie of the Predator play and he took a trophie at every kill and the anim

[quote who="Hollow Man" reply="17" id="1675066"]Ron, you can play Steam games w/o an Internet connection, but you need the 'net initially in order to register the game. After doing so, you can disconnect from the Internet, run Steam, Steam will note that you're offline (as long as you have the settings checked properly to cache your user information on your PC), and let you play anyway. It took Valve a long time to get this working right, but now it does. It was a mess for years.

I have had no issues with lag, much less than I have in some other games anyway. Certainly if you host Left 4 Dead locally with just 8 players it lags to hell but this plays 18 players easily. The worst issue is that about 1 in 20 games the host needs to migrate to someone else and you get about a 5-10 second pause. Very rarely also you can't connect to the person who becomes the host and you get booted. Playing with friends is easy as pie, just like the console vers

Reply to Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare 2 in Everything Else Stardock Forums

The game is superb on many levels. Cinematically the single player Campaign is unequaled by other First Person Shooters even on the PC. The graphics are gorgeous, sounds and atmosphere are also spot on. Overall it's short, you can replay it on harder difficulties but if you will never use the multiplayer content of this game the asking price is very high for what you would get. The 2 player extra missions are superb fun to do with a friends, I really recommend you gr

Reply to Who would pay for new demi's? in Demigod Stardock Forums

They coudn't do it like this, the community in general would take the move badly. If they released an expansion with new Demigods and maps and a lot more Single player content I'd pump money in to it. If it was just new Demis and maps then I'd hardly pay anything for it.

Take a look at Blood Bowl. Been playing since release and I'm more addicted now than ever. My advice, read the table top game rule book, play a few games then get yourself in one of the player organised leagues such as Orca Cola Championship and you will have a blast. Forget the real time game they included with it, totally pointless, go straight to turn based.

ChuckCS I wasn't talking about clans, I've been members of clans before and it's a great way to enjoy a game, I was talking about how a bandwagon on the internet becomes a fucking army of people all singing the same tune. People are all crying about something because everyone else is and it's cool to Boycott Left 4 Dead 2, hate EA, hate DRM, support Piratebay, cry about CoD MW 2 cause of dedicated servers. It's boring to read the same unresearched, inherited opinions. &nbs

It is 100% a console port. It is 100% one of the best FPS I have played since Call of Duty Modern Warfare. Me and a friend were having one of the best times we have ever had playing games playing the Spec Op missions last night. The Vs multiplayer is even better than the original Call of Duty and I didn't experience a hint of lag, it was just as playable as the PS3 version of CoD 4 I had and I can't wait to do some more tonight now more of my friends have th
