Not a bad idea aside from 2 main factors.

1. Radio tutorials? How is that going to work?
2. Dimbark (no offense, but you are one of the least experienced members on TWHL)

@Rabid: It is the most comfortable mouse I have ever used. The humped back fits your palm nicely, the buttons are light and make rapid clicking so much easier, the button below the mousewheel can be pushed fowards / pulled back to alter sensitivity. Your thumb rests on the shelf on the left and you can operate the 2 thumb buttons with minimal movement required.

I'm yet to use it in any fast paced shooters but it does me well in Fallout New Vegas. I have assigned VATS targetting to one of the thumb buttons. I would never have dreamed of doing that with my old Wireless Microsoft Mouse (may it rot in Hell forever)

Need to get hold of a gaming keyboard to match now. :)

Choose the parts, they build it, test it, QA it and then ship it.

Haha, true that.

2 - 3 weeks it should arrive. I picked up an 8GB USB drive so I can start saving certain files (important docs, web designs, graphics and HL mods) in advance. Then just pile it all into the new PC once it arrives.

Long story short, everyone in the world is/has at some point been/is yet to be totally fucked. Old news really.

Original Flashpoint is better than Dragon Rising. Nothing to be ashamed of. :)

The free multiplayer IS classic mode. It should work in your browser (assuming you use a REAL browser like Opera / Firefox)
Commented 13 years ago2010-12-23 21:20:12 UTC in journal: #6946 Comment #42993
The classic free mode on the site is the most boring element of MC. It is literally just building things, no challenge elements or mobs to worry about.

Gaming addiction at it's worst I say.

In my opinion it is brilliant. I don't mind the tedious methods of doing things because you are constantly working towards something. It's a lot like mapping in that sense.

Your vision of what you could create in your head is what drives you to keep going in game. That and the objectives you set yourself:
  • Find steel to make steel tools
  • Use steel tools to find diamond
  • Find diamond to make diamond tools
  • Use diamond tools to mine obsidian
  • Use obsidian to make gate to Hell
  • Go to Hell
and so on.

I probably wouldn't buy it now that it's in beta. It costs more and the updates aren't free. Glad I got in there early. :P

I understand it might not be everyone's sort of game, the same can be said for anything. Take me for example. A lot of people swear by the CoD games, whereas I think they are the most bloated, over hyped and overpriced bullshit on the market. :|

I have a 360 but it's been dead for a couple of months. When I can afford to, I'll be getting a PS3.

Yeah, I'm interested in... you know... as well. I've still got a few files for it.

Saw these a couple of years ago. Might actually get one now that I work in a proper office with proper machines.

(It seems most supermarket systems were invented before USB drives were a thing. Also, user interfaces that didn't require you to be a hacker of some sort to get the damn thing to do anything.)

Congrats to everyone who said 4.

There is one cat in each of the 4 corners of the room. Looking in towards the center of the room, each cat can see the other 3, thereby having 3 cats in front of them. The cat on each tail can be looked at in 2 ways:

1)Each cat is sat on its tail.
2)For each cat's tail in the room, there is 1 cat.

More soon. ^_^

@Penguinboy

Dead cats would still be present in the room would they not?

Also, I stated that there is 1 cat in each of the 4 corners, so you know that there are at least 4 present to begin with.

Went through a phase of playing ME1 every day. Got to a point where no matter what I do, the game crashes. Haven't gone back to it since. Played the ME2 demo though and that was pretty sweet.

Whether its a joke or not, this mod is not worth anyone's time. The guys who made it are pathetic trolls who insult anyone who tells them so.

They're no better than Checkerboard Studios, the guys behind the intentionally broken source mod, Checkerboard Hopes 2 and the very very controversial School Shooter, an apparent school massacre simulator based on true events.

We had a brief discussion in the office and settled on a purple squirrel. That would be awesome.

Yeah, the text isn't final and will be reworked. The moddb page is getting an image in its place so that will be fixed soon as well. :D

@DiscoStu - Funny you should say that, I was toying with the idea of mundane tasks during the pre-disaster section. A PC restart would be brilliant.

I'll add it in and give you a mention in the credits. :D

(Though the whole of TWHL is already in there)

@Tetsu0 Thanks mate. Guess they have actually taught me a thing or 2 at work. :D

I have come to the conclusion that Crytek are just not good at making games.

Had us a heat wave recently in the UK. Was damn near unbearable. Had the side off my case and had a 12" standing fan blowing into it.

NFS hasn't sucked since underground, dummy. NFS has ALWAYS sucked.

Anyway, I have Burnout: Paradise on the 360 and while I can't actually play it anymore I'd say it's pretty damn fun. :)
