[quote who="Tonath" reply="3" id="3426113"] Minefields that are deployed via ship modules into a hex and cost money to maintain or a lump sum to deploy.[/quote] So far only one thing caught my attention. Mines are ideal soldiers - they don't need to sleep, eat, need no salary, their logistics support is very simply, you can build them in large numbers. Also, minefields should be covered by your forces, otherwise, your enemy either will be able to take t

[quote who="Lucky Jack" reply="31" id="3427228"]Tennessee Ernie Ford's repertoire was classified as "Country" music, which is what I should have said earlier.[/quote] So chant and country doesn't mix? [quote who="Lucky Jack" reply="31" id="3427228"]None of these are chants. Chants are spoken (not restricted to a musical score). While Johnny Cash did change from musical voice to spoken voice in parts of his songs ("My name is Sue" as one examp

ME3 was released in 2012, so I doubt your coworkers talking about it. Though I knew people who think that way. But they liked Dragon Age 2 or Justin Bieber (whoever it is).

[quote who="admiralWillyWilber" reply="11" id="3427236"] Um have any of you guys had a desktop, and no laptops. With no internet. Tjats when you are glad that your games are on Cd's and Dvd;s. This has happened to me. You know that having a book around when you are playing a game and need to look Not everyone always have the internet or a laptop.

[quote who="Crastiloowa" reply="9" id="3427150"]Worst part is that I totally could not explain to my wife why it was so depressing [/quote] Tell her her bags/suits/dresses/shoes are ruined somehow, if you have typical wife.

Maybe that's why Gabe formed Valve in the form it is now - to sleep on the bed, eat from the plate, not to sleep on the ceiling and eat from vacuum cleaner, because someone decided it will be kewl.

Read with that announcer guy's (with running nose, speaking from underwater) voice: Nex February, when whole world will be watching Sochi Olympics they will have no idea few chosen defended Earth from Drengin's invasion... Next Spring... Gee, I hope there will be nothing overlapping. Thanks for update and keep your chin up!

[quote who="Lucky Jack" reply="29" id="3427175"]Actually, "16 tons" was sung, not chanted, and IIRC, he had a full band behind him.[/quote] Ehm... Why band is a problem? We need someone performing solo? And what is "chanting" in this context? same 16 tonnes, Johnny Cash style? Inkspot's Maybe (parts of)?

[quote who="Tridus" reply="9" id="3427132"]CCleaner is spending a lot of time analyzing stuff to try and figure it out, and it's had cases in the past of getting it wrong and breaking things. A normal game uninstaller is not getting the resources into development to do that kind of analysis, and you really don't want it making mistakes.[/quote] CCleaner is one and only (sort of) so these actions are more or less tolerable.

[quote who="admiralWillyWilber" reply="40" id="3427157"] Good points maybe you should host this.[/quote] Not for 24 hours non-stop. :) And we need to have guidelines with Stardock, for creating those uniform questionnaires.

[quote who="Tridus" reply="7" id="3427122"] Some games are sloppy, yeah.[/quote] It's no excuse for them - we've been taught to clean up after ourselves, they should do that too! (speak with R. Lee Ermey voice) [quote who="Tridus" reply="7" id="3427122"]But other times, stuff has to go where it does. System libraries have to go where Microsoft says they do, period. Third party libraries can be all over the map in where they go, depend

Come on, I like old "physical" copies and treasure them too (nobody touches my wiener Fallout 1 box!), but my main problem with retail in necessity to wait for weeks if not months and worry about receiving meatball of ground wet cardboard, broken plastic, shattered disks and goodies and bent metal instead of "collectors edition". Or getting it in the first place.

[quote who="NitroX infinity" reply="4" id="3427111"] Shouldn't have to use a third party program to remove stuff from another party if that party provided an uninstaller.[/quote] You have point, but if nothing else works and this will, than why not? For me at least - I have it anyway. I don't mind to have "other" files somewhere, outside of their main folder, but I'd prefer to have them in one folder, for example "My games" inside Documents, not spreaded arou

Eh, could Tennessee Ernie Ford's "16 Tons" be considered "old rap"? [e digicons]:rolleyes:[/e] I find modern music genres even more confusing than games' genres - I'm a simple guy, I can understand Classic, or Rock, but "mild core techno pop glamour ska" is something a way outside of my comprehension. Simple, 16 colours pallete. As for old working songs, aren't they, actually, more tied to military marches and songs? They have rhythm (Ok, marches are for

Could CCleaner help with that?

ME3 had far more problems, than just events past meeting with Marauder "Health" Shields, yet I agree, writers faux ingenuity seem to be major issue. Even if we ignore horrible animations, questionnable graphics, and even more questionnable game design decisions, and almost absolute lack of attention to the details. [e digicons]O:)[/e] So they either had little time, or they have big headedness superiority complex. [e digicons]:rolleyes:[/e]

Some say digital distribution killed retail (true, to some extent - as long as we have some "platform" to have entertainment on, it is only wise to put something to be entertained with on abovementioned platform). But there is no difference in price between retail copy of game and digital - same "spherical in vacuum" $60 per copy, even if you don't have any overhead expenses, storage fees, logistics costs, printing price, or middlemen salaries (add instant delivery factor too). Therefore

Stardock proved they knew about GUI more than anyone else (even one particularly not large, nor hard company), so fonts are elements I have zero worries about.

So haste makes waste, I don't need another ME3. [e digicons]:rolleyes:[/e]

[quote who="Tridus" reply="13" id="3427030"] Which is... how, exactly?[/quote] That's exactly a HELL LOT OF THEM. So you can fine tune your game to your preferences. As much as I like Paradox's games, I'm not sure that's the way I want. And as ultimate solution, you can always write to Steam Support and ask them to remove (or suspend) your ownership on certain DLC. Helped me when I had problems with Skyrim and official </stron

That's the slippery path, don't let EA read about that, or they'll offer us bucket and pickaxe (only for $60 each, only on origin) and say "trees are over there, oil is over there (beware of local populace), ore is over there, you can buy blueprints, maps and additional tools in origin, only for $30 apiece... Feel yourself like home." And next thing you'll see will be Gnomoria IRL for all games made by EA, 2K, and Activision.

Something people are reluctant to discuss when they have "conversation" on forums with all delays' periods, but less reluctant, when they have real-time communication. :) Somewhere nearby there is topic about "preorder", and there is reply about some people buying freshly released games (going for freshly released movies, reading recently written book, etc) just to be able to have conversations with friends about "new and trendy stuff". I admit, I don't understand this kind of
