I agree that the "cosmic horror" thing could have been developed further, but i have hopes this will happen in the following seasons...that really these were meant just to be first subtle signs... i read IMDB forums and somebody suggested that the next season could take place in Massachusets (the setting for lot of Lovecraftian stories) - now i guess i would like that...

True Detective in Movies & TV & Books Sins Forums

So anyone seen this? I think it was pretty good and i recommend it - although 9,5 rating on IMDB is IMHO bit too much... Anyway it has some great acting, especially by Matthew McCounaghey, great script and while it can be basically looked upon as a standard crimi-drama, it has potentially some other, deeper meaning, since it sports certain references to the lovecraftian cosmic horror genre... i wonder if this is meant to be build upon further over the potential next seasons, since the

I am totally OK with Desperation, Purification and Repossesion. Deploy Phase Stabiliser is bit literal, but i have no issue with that... Retribution sounds good. BTW, seeing how you complain about long ability names, ever heard of the acronyms? [e digicons]:D[/e]

I hate the green skybox too...still dont understand while this one was kept, while the red one was dumped. Bottom line, the skyboxes in Sins are generally underwhelming. The only ones that stand out for me are the new blueish and brownish ones.

[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="17" id="3454865"] I works fine with personal friends, and is something I've done in the past when playing with one of my "real life" buddies after an MD, but it is extremely unrealistic for the typical competitive game on ICO...

I agree that 600W seems a bit low, while i am afraid going into the noname PSU as well. Its probably more preferable choice of those 2, sadly. Bottom line, i found it difficult to believe you only have those 2 PSUs to choose from, now i realize you have no reason to lie about this, but it still seems odd. If you lived outside of Europe, it would be understandable, but Greece? Seriously? I get its not Germany or England, but then again i live in Slovakia, which is not really that

[quote who="Cauldyth" reply="11" id="3453308"] We do a massive amount of GPU computing at our company (we have an entire GPU cluster). The problem for NVidia is that we, and everyone else, have discovered that we can get as good performance with the consumer level cards as we can with the high-end professional ones. They've recently modified their driver EULA to try to prevent this, but it doesn't surprise me that they're also addressing it by simply increasing p

Reply to Nvidia going full retard with its latest dual-chip card... in PC Gaming Sins Forums

My point, the previous generations of this card were "very, very high-end" too, at their time, but they were not 3000. They ask 5x more for the successor of my current card (gtx590) than i paid for that card 3 years ago, shall i not act surprised? I guess those 590s were aimed at mass market back then? On topic of this being a supercomputer at the research facility, NO, the TESLA cards are meant and sold for this purpose. I dont know exact numbers, but i am inclined to believe

Reply to New Rig Configuration in PC Gaming Sins Forums

Drop Titan in favor of 780i or 780 from EVGA, if you insist on 6GB of RAM. Unless you need its 64bit computing capabilities OFC, but since you say gaming duty, i doubt that. Thats 300-400 EUROs down right there, which you can spend elsewhere. And i would go into something from HP or Dell, possibly Apple - LCD display-wise. No SSD in this age? For this kind of high-end machine? Cant be serious. I bought something similar back in 2010 (980x, gtx590, 24gigs of RAM) and i had 2 80

I dont know if this is meant to be for compstomping or competitive multiplayer against people, since there can be surely difference in approach, but anyway... in case of stomping AIs i like my Vorastra to end up with 4 points in MPJ, 4 points in Desperation, 4 points in Spawn Phase Stabiliser, 2 points in Maw, 3 points in weapon damage and 3 points in Antimatter Regen. I dont really upgrade hull, since the Titan can have over 11000 hitpoints at max level with all the researches anyway

I am not that sure if this is entirely physical issue. I am under impression the affinity to depression or anxieties mightily influenced by ones character traits (which could be again down to physical properties of the brain)... Anyway in my case personally i think its all down to my predisposition to obsessive thinking, now that not meant as mental disorder, rather trait of my personality.
