    interesting comment on youtube, that these points have to be assigned locations, so each point's position along with colour information, will take up hundreds of gigabytes. unless they have a way around this then that is probably one of the biggest problems.

    wow, looks like they came through!

    i wonder how this stuff works on consoles?

    and i wonder why nobody else is looking into it?

    i still don't really buy it just yet, there's no evidence of motion, so i wonder how they plan on dealing with that.

    yeah i don't see the big deal. it's a dickish move for those without net connection but i wonder what % of their fanbase that actually applies to these days.

    as for the trading thing, is that a big deal? people do it now, just outside of the game, so blizzard have implemented it inside the game. great move.

    however, all the butthurt surrounding D3 I am not surprised that people will whine about anything they can.

    Just like HL2 [Blocked Image: http://www.half-lifecreations.com/forums/Smileys/default/joebiden.jpg]

    except for that whole 5 minute exposition that picked up where HL1 left off. and then all the "live action cutscenes" dotted throughout.

    i understand what you are trying to say but it's just not relevant.

    yeah, i played like 5 minutes of single player accidently, and it does seem to give you hints along the way. but it is definately a "hardcore pc gamer" title. there is nothing wrong with that, it reminds me of bloodlines: masquerade - which is a real love hate game as well, and the people that love it really love it. so i think they've got something with real potential, but it might just not be for me. again, i would encourage you to buy it if you are interested in it. what else would you spend your money on, and this is at least built by people who enjoy games instead of churned out for maximum profit.

    in the last week i spent about a hundred euros on fucking shitty indie games that me and a friend played for like 5 minutes each before alt-f4ing in rage. so this isn't a bad game, just not for me. and to let you know how i am playing games lately: lying down on my couch, with an xbox controller, on a 15inch laptop screen, and everything set to easy cause i have gone full casual. so just because i didn't enjoy the game doesn't mean by any stretch of the imagination that you won't.

    i am just being a whiny casual faggot.

    also i only tried a very small element of the game. but i would say it's worth buying it now nd enjoying while there's people playing on the servers.

    i am just being overly dickish because i paid money. but because i paid money i feel i can be a total dick and be just as much a part of the cancer i hate in the gaming community. i love being a filthy hypocrite.

    but if this is the way we have to support mods, or people going it alone then i think we shouldn't expect AAA games straight away, and i am happy to support people who will try something different, because who knows, they might have the next counter strike on their hands

    ok i was, as usual, a dick.

    i bought the game for co-op play only. but there's something up with the game, it only launches a server into lan, regardless of what setting you choose in the settings, so we had to use Tunngle to play together - no big deal but annoying considering we had to fuck around to get it working, and it lagged like fuck as well.

    the game also feels very much like a mod. for portal 2's coop it's simple to launch, obvious what to do, nicely designed etc. but the co-op here i wouldn't have known about unless it was advertised, there is no "co-op game" button or anything like that, along with the menu hud colour choices making it seem very amatuerish.

    also launching the game takes ages, 5 minutes to boot into the opening menu, presumably the random background screens.

    as for the game, i launched into the first map for co-op and was greeted with a sound effect like a fog horn that repeated itself ad infinitum, while i was presented with a sort of character creation screen. there's a lot of .. options, but they aren't very well explained, and you have to select an option before you are given an explanation of it, hard to explain but annoying to use.

    then you get dropped into the map and that's it, enjoy. weird enemies, unexplained plot, levels that don't make sense in terms of why we are there, overly dark lighting, HL2 turrets, combat that feels unfair even when on easy.

    also, controller support is a laughable misrepresentation. i turned it on and i could only use the left stick to move the player around ala goldeneye 64. fucking ludicrous.

    from what i could gather the production qualities are pretty good, everything looks ok, it seems like killing floor with swords. i want to try it again when i have my computer set up properly and there's been a patch or two.

    i would encourage people to buy it and try it out, support indies and support mapcorians. maybe i just expected too much.

    well i just bought it twice, for myself and a friend and we've not even been able to play together yet (starting your own server seems to force it into lan whether you like it or not) and already i have a lis as long as my arm of complaints.

    i'll be back when i am more enraged with a full and scathing list.

    man, that's tragic..

    it makes you want some kind of revenge on that retard, but does torturing him solve anything, would anyone feel better? is it worse to know that he will probably live quite comfortably forthe rest of his life..
