So, apparently the scientists managed to succesfully teleport the states of the qubits, but fuck me, i have only very very misty idea, what that means and no idea, what are the implications of this discovery... heres the link: http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/18/first-light-wave-quantum-teleportation-achieved-opens-door-to-u/#disqus_thread &nbs
I was thinking about it, when i was buying my current compy about a year ago...but i decided not to do it, mainly cause of the power consumption. I know there is the "light" version for these things, which utilizes only one CPU core, whenever allowed, but frankly its kind of waste to run it only on one core, when i have the i7 sixcore CPU. BTW last time i checked, there was no hybrid CPU/GPU client hich you could just download and run and do not care about anything, you had separate c

I'd like to point out that Dawn of War I+Xpacks is nothing like Company of Heroes+Xpacks. In fact, none of the DoW1 titles are remotely similar to any of the CoH titles. Dawn of War 2 on th

It conveys a sense, of, I don't know, titanic proportions or power. TBH, I'm certain that you're the only one who's attempted to draw a parallel between Sins Titans and '2142 Titans. They are similar in name alone, really. Quoting TheExile1, reply 6The awesome class name Sup
[quote quoting="post"] I haven’t seen this question here for a while so I thought I would ask. I, myself, have been stuck on a couple of games I bought over 4 months ago after buying 2 flops in between. I’m hooked on Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2 now that there are hardly any hackers in there, since Black Ops came out actually. Black Ops is one of the flops I got, dam thing has never worked properly on my rig thanks to my lack of quad-cores, even with a decent video card. I

I personally don't care about the graphics in a game. As long as they are Conquest: Frontier Wars or C&C Generals quality or better, I'm perfectly happy. What I really want is great gameplay (battle tactics, story, etc). This game looks like it could be fun to play, and tha
Bringing to your attention new update today, focusing on the planetary bases. Would provide direct hyperlink here, but for some reason my browser (Opera) shuts down everytime i copy paste it here...its second time this week, there is a problem with SoaSE forums for me...WTF is happening?
Oh i see now, somebody mentioned K-Pax and Event Horizon, i completely forgot about them, they were indeed brilliant.... K-Pax again does boast very good OST by the way and EH does have very compelling and interesting plot IMHO, for me personally it is far better combination of sci-fi theme and horror than Alien (though great itself) ever was... BTW while its not sci-fi, (but these days judging by the SyFy channel it does not matter :D) its rather mysterious, i need to bring u
Uh, this is difficult I wholeheartedly agree with the Children of Men sentiment, its brilliant movie, i saw it only about year or 2 ago, before i kind of resisted to it, as i did not like the story that much, well no spaceships, aliens, mystery, nothing interesting, .... but it was mistake, it was great, though in its own way. BTW i really really loved music in that movie, there was very tender cover version of Ruby Tuesday, The Court of the Crimson King, Bring on the L

So I hope it won't be that good so I won't have to buy it ! lol BUT the screens are pretty though and I did not see the videos but I take all your words for it. I especially like how planets are rendered and how rocks and everything looks like they will influence the battlefield. The star system on the other hand looks like it's going to be SO
Another update here, this time concentrating how fighter squadron "mechanic" work ingame. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=td1dFEPjzlk Look at the scale of fighters compared to those cruisers, IMHO this is how it shoud have been done in Sins.

[quote who="TobiWahn_Kenobi" reply="2329" id="2909013"]Youre joking right? I remember you said somewhere youve got intel i7 sixcore CPU, so 42 hours is bit hard to believe. What soft do you use again? Nay, Radiosity, SubPolygon Displacement, which btw is singlethreaded in C4D (and choosing the wrong settings) can result in tremendous rendering times, even on a Westmere 6 Core. Well, than adapt a little. As long as it resembles centaur

Just buy some AMD Phenom X4 CPU, some cheapish AMD board for it, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, and Nvidia GTX460 and you are all set. That CyberPower PC does have unfortunately pretty shitty GPU, i would avoid that, if you want the machine for gaming.

I think, if youre interested in modding, the best thing to do is choose your "specialisation"... i mean, you can build new models, create textures, play around with entities and create new abilities, weapons, effects and other stuff.... there is lot of different work to do, so i would choose what fits my bill the best and either join some other modders or if you are adamant about creating your own mod, just convince some other people to help you... either way and that is basically whole
