If I could somehow prove that i've been playing since I was 7 (Since the game came out) and been playing very frequently I could prolly get some kind of Beta or at least alpha test...but I have no way to prove it XD.

I feel old for being twice as old as NS when SC came out :uhoh:


Lately haven't had that much time for anything, besides TF2 on weapons and my Falcon 4.0 RedViper campaign. God that game is living proof of what modding communities can do - 10 years, and this is still undisputably the best modern combat sim in existence, and probably still the only game where a full-scale strategic conflict is modeled in real-time 3D and the player can fully participate in it on a tactical level. Shame games have gotten so much less ambitious since the 90s.

Clear Sky stutters too much in populated areas on this PC, so I thought I'd go back to my old staple, Europa Universalis III: In Nomine. They've just patched it to 3.1, and apparently they were TOO good at patching it. The AI played much like Poland, tried to put up a fight, made it kinda interesting, but was ultimately quite pathetic. It fought to win, and blew it every time. Now though, it, if you go by all the bitching, steamrolls half the players. I've seen new people join the forums JUST to bitch about hard it is and they want to go back to an earlier patch. It hardly even cheats. Naval attrition is the only thing I'm aware of the AI gets a definite bonus in. It now evades, puts up a bloody good fight, knows how to use it's armies, retreats, still kinda botches attrition but so do most players. It won't even lay down it's arms if it has a chance. Much like the player would. It's still playing to win. And now it does. :lol:

(Actually, now that I've gotten into, it's giving me a fair run for my money too. :oops: )

Sid Meyer's Civilization Revoluation: DS

The Computer version is better, but it's still the same good game. Just more pixely. :O

Half Life 2

I bought it a couple years ago, but my old laptop's graphics card couldn't handle it. It actually works on my new laptop, though I had to lower some of the settings so it could handle it.

Dungeons and Dragons 4th edition

Electronic gaming becomes stale fairly easily. Paper n pencil is more unpredictable.
Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

Amen.

Got two nice sessions in over the weekend. Can't wait for D&D Insider to be totally up.

I sooooo want them to get the online interface operational.

I've got a few friends that are only reachable through the net now thanks to moving at some point or having work schedules that make a common meeting point in the week not to doable.

And I have some people I've only interacted with online that like the opportunity it will allow as well.

I seriously have no particular fascination with MMOs as they eventually become too much like going to work if I judge based on the remarks I have heard made by long term players.

They even occasionally resent needing to show up for a raid when they would rether be doing something else.

I've never regretted showing up for a rolegame session though.
