Dear god, if I have to read another "OMFG ALYX D3AD???!1111111 GM@N OMG!!!!!!!!11111111111" thread, I think I'll murder the poster before commiting sepuku myself. Honestly people, this question has been asked hundreds and hundreds of times; can you not take the time to read pre-existing threads...
First of all, let me commend you on an excellent summary/character analysis! Prior to reading this, I only knew what Stalkers looked like based on the poorly-lit sightings I had inside the Citadel.
As for the various parts of the Combine Advisor, I have some personal suggestions I thought I...
I have a router, so like I said, I could simply unplug it. However, that would mean the rest of the household would be without an internet connection (bad).
Does Steam have an impact on performance ingame? (I have a 2.4ghz pentium, ATI 9700 Pro, 512gb ram...)
Is there a setting to turn it off within Steam, IE. not having to pull out my modem every time I plan on playing the game offline? It would be possible, I suppose, but what if other people in my household wanted to use the internet on our second computer?
Anyone notice the cables stretching from the buildings in pieces like Vulkan Panorama? Its rather reminiscent of the strange cables stretching from City 17 to the Combine Citadal.
Excellent artwork, though...
Have you re-considered the creation of the Gone Gold forum? Its quickly degenerating into a mass of "OMFG!!111111LOL!!!!G0lD!!!!!!!!HAHAHaH@H@H1111111!" as well as other...well....more sexually-disturbing topics. :P
I'd suggest you close it before things get any more out of hand...
I noticed the same thing, but I assume it was just an extra effect added to the videos? Maybe I'm wrong, but I find it hard to believe that Valve would design a noise-alert system to allow you to know you've killed your target, especially with the realism regarding death animations...
Well, I guess that depends on what kind of fan you are, doesn't it? I personally am waiting until the game is released in retail form (I prefer having a solid copy rather than digital code in a window's folder), so I didn't buy either.
Oh! Just a quick note- if you're buying through Steam...
Maybe you're just being a little too optomistic. The game is going Gold regardless within the month of October, but that doesn't mean you'll be playing the game until sometime in November. Unless of course Valve REALLY screws over Vevendi, in which case you could have it via Steam whenever Valve...
I was expecting the game to earn reviews reasonably close to what it's getting now, especially seeing as how Doom III (Which was good, but only for a short while...) scored so well in months past.
As for the game being ranked lower because of "delays"...err...am I missing something here? The...
If you're going to use "which" in a sentence/poll, at least do us the courtesy of spelling it correctly...
I estimate the game will be released....soon. Vague enough for you?
You've just elevated a topic from redundant to spam- please stop. As for PC Gamer scans, I would advise against it, as it is most likely a copyright infringement to do such a thing.
Are you sure it was for Sims 2? I know for a fact it contains a review for Rome: Total War (which received a 92% review rating), which if you can humble yourself, is infact a highly anticipated game...
As for PC Gamer working "in the future", it's true- they really do. Developers allow them...
