I think this sums it up...

It's faster... It's also faster for me to drive on the wrong side of the highway to get to work. Faster, not better. I actually like English, and I prefer it used properly.

The clock's still running... As is for Doom 3. I like the one nitwit that said B&W 2 was delayed, seeing as how they've not ANNOUNCED any dates yet, let alone missed them...

Okay first off.... what does liking guys have to do with scat? Second off. ::biatchslap:: Thirdly. ::douses with a firehose:: Fourthly. I work at Target. You guys will all know the friggin day we get HL2 into the back room, as i work half my time at the electronics section, and have...

Re: Re: The Barnacle, it's back... Okay, um... For some reason, reading your post, I can't help but think of Zero Wing. WHAT YOU SAY!?

Um, no? Going gold is when the programming is finally wrapped up, the version is bumped up to 1.0 (if the company isn't a group of nitwits) and CDs start getting printed. Odds are, they've already printed about fourty bajillion (rough estimate) boxes, hell they probably even have all the CD...

Good to see the old Gaber still has some humor in this late stage of the game. -----Original Message----- From: Chazz [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 10, 2003 6:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: A couple quick questions. Firstly, greetings and...

*ahem* Mea cupla. I clicked the wrong link, and didn't even look. /me bows and begs for forgiveness

Ohhhhhh, heh, sorry. But honestly, that's normally the exception, not the rule, that's why the "most folks here" threw me, sorry ^^;

Re: Re: Only 60fps at 1024x768 I know, really. The human brain stops seeing individual frames at ~24fps. Up till 35-40, there's gradual improvement. 40-60 is pretty much true-to-life, and past that is, essentially, overkill, unless you're rendering individual things moving exTREMEly fast...

Yep. They'll put it up on the site Sept. 30th, at 12:01 a.m. And stores don't open until 8-9 =P

Already been done, as has Breakout... which was actually quite cool.

No blinkin' clue. If you just mean like the smokey wator vapor coming up then yes, obviously, they've been doing it for years, starting with simple moving or animated sprites, moving onto particle effects and such. If you mean the condensation effect, then that could be done with a simple...

I think anyone that's REALLY a fan of HL and Valve should wait until Sept. 30th (or whenever IF god forbid some delay happens it comes out) and just buy it. Why? So the game makers get money, and see how much everyone loves their stuff, and are both compensated and encouraged to make more...

Okay, since it hasn't been said in a while. VALVE DOES NOT RESPOND TO POSTS IN THIS THREAD. Any replies shown are due to people e-mailing Gabe or the others and copy/pasting the responses. Not flaming or anything, just letting folks know :cheers:

Heh, you don't gotta tell ME that. I work in Target, often over in the electronics section. In the year or so I've been there, I think I've seen all of ONE sign actually be correct, everything from a month early/late, to the wrong quarter. I SO wanted to take home the "Star Wars: Galaxies...

I LOVE CHICKENS EDDIEEEE!!! I just hope we don't get an evolved version of the bee-gun beastie. That thing was too damn strong, its bees were at LEAST 50% smarter than the ones YOU could shoot, and it always seemed to show up at times you'd really rather it not, like when you're almost out of...

Oof, no kiddin. Let's see if we can't sort some of this out, hmm? If you buy the game retail (i.e. go to a store or online and purchase the physical box and disc) you don't need to be online, at all. If later you want to use steam or MP (either just MP, or using steam to update or get new...

The "metal on them" i take it is a solid chunk clipped on over the whole thing? That would be a heatsink. VERY useful for, you know, not having your computer melt. The other two "just full of circuits" are... well... Heh... I'm wayyyyyyy too tired to go about explaining the construction...
