Reply to System Requirements - Slightly Worried in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Well the goal is for the cloth map to be playable on netbooks, so you're definetly good there (and I know that isn't what you were asking about). I have a similar laptop, but with a slightly better processor, and the beta has run fine (apart from the memory leaks and stuff[e digicons]:P[/e] ). I'm pretty confident you'll be able to play it. But if you're really concerned, wait until the demo comes out (sometime after release) and see how that runs.

Reply to Destiny's Embers EBOOK at a real price? in Stardock Games Stardock Forums

I doubt you're going to find anything cheaper. What eReader do you have, if it isn't a Kindle? There are free Kindle apps for the iPhone/Touch/Pad, and a free Kindle program for your computer. I ask, because the $10 Kindle version is probably the cheapest eReader version of the book you can get.

Reply to Is it possible to gift games to other Impulse users in War of Magic Stardock Forums

[quote who="joasoze" reply="2" id="2712029"]Ok - thanks. The problem will be how to get this email without alerting the "victim" of the gift [/quote] I remember an old thread about gifting from a while ago, and someone's way around that was to set up a free email address (gmail or whatever), gift the game/software to that email address, and then when it came time to give the gift, give them the name+password of the email address. And if you want to go all out, you can get a box

Reply to Whats next for the ironclad team? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote who="GJDriessen" reply="5" id="2711558"]Why would they be weary of space based games? [/quote] Because most of them came from working on Homeworld: Cataclysm, then they went to Sins, and then the Sins expansions. I can't blame them for wanting to take a break and work on something new. Also, IIRC, there almost assuredly will be a Sins 2, but not for quite a while.

[quote who="G3mpi3" reply="111" id="2711022"] If the media chooses to blow it completely out of proportion (which they often do) and loose the necissary qualifiers, that is a whole seperate problem that really isn't his fault. Yeah, it's mostly people who listen to something he says, and instantly think it's fact. My problem with Hawking is as an astrophysicist he relays information in a way that makes people believe him with questioning his rationality. This doesn't all

[quote who="dragoaskani" reply="72" id="2711123"]Most beta's don't have you beta test the "final" version... [/quote] You know what we mean. The Starcraft 2 beta was basically 5 months (or however long it was) of balance testing and polishing. The game itself was pretty much "done," it was just tweaking. The same can be said of most beta's nowadays. Of course they don't give you the final version, that would be silly. But the game mechanics are pretty much locked in, they have mo

Reply to Duke Nukem Forever... still coming? in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

DNF can't ever come out any more. Not because it was cancelled or anything, but because it would kill the meme. We wouldn't be able to say "oh, that game's gone the way of Duke Nukem Forever" anymore. A new game would have to be found to replace it. DNF has become synonomous with vaporware, you can't go messing with that![e digicons]:P[/e] More seriously though, no, I don't really care. After all this time, I doubt it can live up to 14 years worth of expectations. If it is real, I fee

[quote]I get annoyed when some people like Hawking talk about space as though their word is gospel I get annoyed with those sort of people too. Almost all of science is strictly theory, but I think a lot of scientists tend to forget that.

He really is quite humble, and is willing to admit when he's wrong. AFAIK, he's never sa

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="62" id="2710984"] We'll have to revisit the whole beta program thing after this since people were really expecting some sort of demo to comment on tweaking rather than participating in a real beta like the techies of the old days understood. But we've gotten so much good feedback. I think people are going to freak out at the final version. It doesn't just play differently. It's visually very different. And that was the whole point of the beta. [/quo
