    Milliarden is the term for billion in german and polish (every non-english speaking country?). Kind of crazy they got to that amount of sales in such a short time - seems to strengthen the Ad-driven campaigns the big publishers run at the moment.

    The language barrier is probably really the biggest hurdle and one of the reasons it's always a good idea to learn new languages as fast as possible. Especially when we're coming back to the original question about Canada - Quebec (Montreal) at least requires basic knowledge of french.

    I know some people at Phenomic - gonna be interesting to see what they can do with it. Especially given HTML5 game (hopefully some good performence and therefore deeper gameplay than the usual Farmville clone).

    What is Bioware Victory? And how does Bioware's proven trackrecord translate to them if they are just a new studio with the same name? Frostbite 2 for an RTS sounds nice though Always good to see an engine in different genres.

    Yay, it installs finally. Creepy though: It had an account registered to my E-Mail adress. I counter checked and never got an Origin E-Mail? Is that old EA-Client Account still vaild?

    Seriously, Origin: Biggest pile of shit ever.

    got a copy from work today. I'm currently trying to install the game, but so far, I didn't even see a Battlefield Splashscreen. It started by installing Origin, then directly downloading an update, going back to what looked exactly like the first installation (instead of a nice in-Software update like Steam). Bit confusing but - OK, well it doesn't hurt. Now. Trying to create an account. Three times connection timeout when trying to even reach the first form of creating an account. Then. Check if my username is still available. Time out 5 times. Then Username finally granted. Trying to finsih this. Create account: Time out. Third time now in a row.

    FFS EA! I do understand when a software has starting issues. But Origin has been out for weeks now, fix your shit or let me play on Steam I'm back to playing DotA 2 until I have more time to beta-test for EA.

    Hidden Path is working on it - not sure what the politics behind this look like.

    Given Valve's Trackrecord, I'm confident that they will increase the quality on this significantly. I wasn't excited for DotA 2 at all when I first saw it. But they polished it so far that now it really feels like one of the best games out there and it's even still in Beta. I guess CS:Go will get some love treatment next year before it goes open beta and hopefully will be awsome then.

    If you're in sweden already at least you can apply for some of the studios there (Dice, Starbreeze, Imagination Studios, Massive, etc.). You can find a comprehensive list of studios here:

    Like you said: Get a decent portfolio and apply for jobs Most companies will cover the re-location and help with settling.

    time to play it again! the playtesting was a lot of fun You should write a proper Postmortem for the level, it went through so many design itterations and could be a great lesson for anyone! :science:

    Everyone who donates should get a badge or something under their name

    i like the idea but it could establish a kind of two-class society :/ i think everyone who stayed and enjoyed the core will donate anyway.

    send some moneys, not sure if Paypal send it once or twice, but I hope it helps keeping the core up

    Maybe it would be helpful if you estimate roughly how much the core costs per year and we can donate annually, otherwise you get swamped with money now and in two or three years the war chest is empty again and no one knows what is goin on.
