Oh well this is just annoiyng me now. If only I was better at maths, lol. Okay, something for you guys to try. It seems to be caused by shallow angles and since Mystic said it was specular I had a closer look at the shaders. this is the ship specular function (in GS_Ship.fx, in pipleline effects dir) float4 GetSpecularColor(float3 light, float3 normal, float3 view, float4 dataSample) { &nb

Your entire point seems to be "don't offend people". I say "don't do stuff that will offend you". There IS something out there that will go down to your core of spirit and offend you to the center of your being. There are STILL nazis who belive the Jews are a gentic problem but they arn't rounding them up anymore so they (outside of World War Central) arn't doing anything illegal. Mutual respect (which I belive in as part of the HRS 3.1) means we don't overtly go out of our way to off
Does that mean if anyone disagrees with you they are wrong and 'bad guys'?
Its fine. It hate hypricyits. (and people who can't spell!) Dons't matter if its called 'Opfor', 'Taliban' or 'Generic AK-47 waving Islamic extreamist' - we all know what it REALLY means.
Has anyone tried to turn off each channel of the texture (all but one black) to see if its speicifcally tied to one of them?
Is this confirmed? Those were literaly the two BIGGEST selling points of Dragon Age (at least, on the PC). EDIT: Apparently it seems that the camera is going to be more like NWN2's than Origins so its not totaly nerfed. Origins had this kinda strange two stage camera. I would prefer a fully fluid camera like WoW's but with panning. The toolset thing seems to be more of a "no updated toolset at launch, maybe later". (It does feel li

It's the quad core requirement (for rec not min) that makes it stand out a bit I think. The rest doesn't look too extraordinary to me except I still haven't seen to many require dual cores until just recently.[/quote] You really think the 'quad core' is significant? I think its just an easy way to show a more powreful CPU. I mean
And heres some evidence btw. XCom stands for Extratrestial combat. I.e. fighting things that arn't from terra or earth. XCom is a mordern style name based on late 80s culture for 'action' based orginisations (X-Men being a great example). AlienShock is set in the 50s, just like BioShock. If an orginsation was setup in the 50s to research and fight aliens it would be called something like "the Institue for Threats of Unknown Origins" or ITU
Lets just get this straight. This new game from 2K is called AlienShock. Not XCom. Xcom is simply a marketing thing. Its AlienShock. BioShock... with aliens.
Those are NOT high, they are 2007 specs.
QTE are the worst kind of game design. They are literaly the most simple game design possible: whack a mole. Its just a stupid bad game laid over a cutscene. If its more of an 'interactive' thing (like Indigo Propehcy) with very little in the way of 'failure' that actualy adds to the 'feel' of the scene then you have done something but most of them are litteraly just a "press x to keep playing the... OHNOES! YOU FAILED N00B!!11! BACK TO THE START OF THE GAME!"
It really does fit perfectly dosn't it. Spore is a really great concept as Nesrie says. I would love to play 'civ' where you start with such humble beginings and really EVOLVE your way through the game. As it stands Spore was just a flash 'bigger fish' minigame, a poor asian furry grind MMO, a RTS flash game then another RTS flash game then a demo of a cutsy little-girl friendly casual space sim. That last part had some interesting bits like seeding worlds and collecting speci
Err okay... Didn't I just play this, it was called Transformers: War for something... it had big crystals in it. What I saw above was just another standard action game with boss battles forumla. This time with signature asian moments! And your all like "OMG OMG OMG!!" Wow they put some pretty graphics and animations in and didn't remove the stupid quick time events (Transformers did! They win!).

You SAY J/K, but.......
Yeah, this will be a really good "miserable life simulator". Females will be treated like comoditys. 'Peseant' wont just be an insult to the working class anymore. Lords will have gout, poor them. Sheep will be the primary entertaiment for the welsh (no wait, thats still true). Boys will be trained in the art of war (hitting things with sticks) from birth. Girls will be lamented because they arn't useful tools like boys. Half the 'sims' will die from the plague
The 'lattice' struts (top and side) seem to be garbled.

Don't curse it, man....let's at least Hope for the best until we get some kind of shit-tastic news like that.[/quote] Disapointment makes me more depressed than just starting off depressed.

Okay takeing bets! Im thinking its going to be a RPG with squad based thrid person combat like Mass Effect. Whats yours? (Oh, its not going to be anything LIKE syndicate sorry)
I want to know what these mainstream fools actually think of it...
Never draw any conclusions until the train arrives and someone says "Papaers plas!"... (Did I just godwin it already?)
I think this was a failure... then again it was posted by "JohnRainbow" ...which might Be John Clark from Rainbow 6? So... It was a TOTAL SUCCSESS!
Varyah Niache! Also why don't you like Rasens? I love em. And sultanas.
I like soft feet... Which is totaly on topic for Starcraft II. You know... err... soft footed like a ghost?
