Nice! Glad it's back to the wild west. We need more wild west games.

Went to see this the other night and it's not as bad as everyone makes out. The acting is pretty awful but if you're into cyberpunk it's worth watching just for the cgi, setting and atmosphere, which was pretty awesome.

Personally I got in by going into QA first and then applying internally for design roles. I'd highly recommend that route to anyone looking to break in now.

Saw the Expendables 2 over the weekend. It's awesome! If you want to watch something with mindless shooting, explosions and action heroes who are all probably granddads go see it.

If they build a giant tesla coil I'm in.

I want to know why the rover did a little donut before parking up.

I'm still pumped as hell for this, but I'm going to wait for the final release. I went through more than a fair share of technical issues and balance problems way back with the original PlanetSide beta, and while the game ended up fairly terrific upon release it was a serious slog getting there.Not that I discourage anyone else from giving it a go, as the more you guys complain — make sure you report concerns because they did genuinely act on feedback with PS1 — the better the game will ultimately be.

The thing is, I'd happily play Planetside 1 now if it had a graphical update, was a pretty fun game despite how old it was and the problems it had.

Stolen from my facebook profile.

Me in Hong Kong earlier this year.

What sort of specs are you running dux?

Beta invites start in about 5 hours apparently. I've been looking for another MMO to get addicted to again lol. SWTOR wasn't the one. Hoping PS2 lives up to my hype.

Congrats

Birmingham is a pretty central location, pubs aren't too bad in the centre either. Broad Street is generally full of mums on tour though lol.

It's insane just how closely copied it is. Time to get the popcorn out for this one.

The summer sale has stolen all of my money again!

I picked up:

Age of Empires 3 Complete

Mount and Blade Pack

Fallout New Vegas Ultimate

Portal 2

Mirrors Edge

GTA4 Pack

Tropico 4

Trine 2

The Sims 3

It'll be the winter sales before I know it, best start saving...

So I was looking for an introduction thread and I guess this is it? :embarrassed:

Hey guys, I'm also a Level Designer at Codemasters Birmingham and made aware of Mapcore by Rob (Nysuatro).

Been here a little over a year now (wow has it really been that long?) and I work on F1 Race Stars also.

I tend to spend way too much time on forums so I'm looking forward to becoming part of the community

I'm pretty shocked they've already announced this, I've hardly had BF3 long. I hope this doesn't mean I need to buy a new PC again lol.

Game of Thrones

The Sopranos

Entourage

Californication

Breaking Bad.

Pretty much anything from HBO by the looks of it...

Really can't wait to get my hands on Planetside 2. I was a big Planetside 1 fan and it looks like they're really pulled out the stops this time. Long live the New Conglomerate

I generally try to make it to Gamescom if time allows, the queues are as bad as any expo I guess. The queuing times for the big games can be around a 2 hour wait but there are a lot of games to play that aren't so bad. I'll be there this year, as this will be my first opportunity to see something I've had a hand in making at an expo Very excited.
