This.

Maybe in your first world Oli.

I actually have a steam voucher for NS2 that I can gift someone if they'd like it (eg a free copy)

I thought this was going to be a thread about food.

EDIT : We should have a mapcore steam room

Yes. This.

"-" is an invalid character according to my GFWL? lol

If you guys play steam, my nick is marksftw

Man, if you think that's hard you should try some of Akuma's links (like cr.lp > st.hp > hadoken > FADC > cr.mp > st.hp > EX tatsu > hp.shoryu). It's pretty frustrating missing 1f'ers but I like that, I like that the game is hard to play. Totally agree that some of the input shortcuts and stuff are a little weird though... at least we get priority linking!

I picked up AE about a year ago, really good fun one of the very few games I actually spend time playing these days!

simple answer, pass

from my little experience, QA is not a great way into the industry these days, it was in the past. There are no rules however, where you come from is never the issue, it's if your any good.

I kind of agree, even though at CA we have quite a different story. We have some QA embedded in the actual dev team (eg there is a design QA guy sat with the designers, an animation QA who is actually doing most of the work on out cutscenes now....) and quite a large bunchof the older ones have moved onto dev roles.

Totally pass. 4 months is nothing, and generally speaking short-term QA are the first to go.

Because twitter.

Eurogamer claim to have confirmed that those screenshots "are indeed in-game screenshots from Creative Assembly's new Alien game".

If it needs to be explained to you, you're not indie enough to appreciate it.

And you've gotten approval from the license-holder of the IP ... right? Right?

Christ, this finally made it to retail? I remember working on this like 4 years ago.
