    >Russian exclusive closed Beta ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! Come on man! *sigh* After further reading ahead though, it seems it's only a closed beta in Russia, no further confirmation if it will expand. There has been rumored hopes is that once the beta ends in Russia, it'll expand to everywhere else. This makes sense in a couple reasons: 1.) Saber (343i's partner in this) is based in Russia, and 2.) Russia is home to one of the biggest PC gaming populations, which I guess makes sense if you're trying to see if Halo is ready for PC again. The flaw in this however, is that there not many Halo fans in Russia, so they won't give a shit, but they will only because it's F2P, so no skin off their bones. Which leads to my next point: It's F2P. Considering this is 343i we are talking about, who just at this point Microsoft's puppet, I can see microtransactions out the arse, as well as lots of hackers. And do you know where lots of hackers come from? Russia. Yea, as much as I would love for Halo to come back in all of its glory to PC, I've got a bad feeling about this.

    Planetside 2

    You know, I've been contemplating whether or not to bother installing this game, it's F2P, so monetarily, I'm not losing anything. However, should I still bother using up the hard drive space (20 gigs is bigger than even TF2.'s install)? Is it P2W like so many other F2P games? What type of shooter is it it, as in, is it movement based skill, tactical skill, simple skill level? Is there a large competitive support? Large competitive community? Is the overall community actually nice and willing to learn and play the game? Do the devs support it well? Is there any DRM, EULA, accounts I need to agree to/use? This might have the potential replace TF2 as my most played game if it's good, but I'm weary of F2P games due to abusive devs and shit P2W communities.
  12. Streaming more Republic Commando

    He is getting old. And that's got me thinking. What will become of Valve once Gabe dies? Who is qualified to take on the massive hole he will leave when he goes? Do they have like a line of succession similar to the U.S. President? Will they vote on who takes over? It worries me because only a founder(s) of a company or service have the original vision for their company, and when they go, their successors only try to think of what their predecessor's vision was for the company. And with a company such as Valve, who will be able to fill Gabe's shoes?
  14. I'm streaming Star Wars Republic Commando if any of you guys want to watch.

    1) Don't knock it till you try it. 2) It's Steel, which is the lowest standard division. There is an Iron division, but that's a special case for people completely new to comp and don't have a lot of experience in TF2 in general. Still doesn't stop some teams joining Steel (or even some cases, Silver, lol), but whatever. Trust me, you'll fit right in.

    Hey guys. Are any of you interested in joining a comp TF2 team? SwiftInc. is currently looking for backups. We keep having to rely on ringers since we only have 12 members when the max roster for HL is 21. So if you're interested in joining a Highlander team and are new to comp then that's cool, since we are a Steel team. Hit me up on Steam and I'll hook you up to our team captain and Medic, Rayne. Sorry for advertising. I would ask around FastCo., but all of the active members are already on a team or don't have the time. So, I'm getting desperate.

    I would agree that FNAF was a cash grab, if it weren't for the fact that the gameplay changes each time and improve the game from the original. For example, FNAF 2 removed the doors and power management, added the Freddy mask, added vents, more animotronics with unique abilities, and the flashlight w/ battery, and the music box. The end result was a game more challenging from the first. FNAF 3 looks so different from the first two, only one animotronic who is smart as shit, an audio system that produces a sound to lure him to an area, a seperate map for vents which you can seal off, and all of those systems can fail which you have go to a seperate menu to reboot. That don't sound like a cash grab to me. If the games didn't change up the formula and looked unfinished, then I would agree it's a cash grab, but these games are rather simple to make so it's tough to actually do that. Does the simplicity of the games lower there quality? No, in fact, since there's only one guy making the games and managed to release 3 finished products in only 8 months all at the combined price of a modern Pokemon game is quite impressive. Besides, I think Scott himself said it would be the last one, so you can all calm down now. THANK. GOD. Gaming is saved once again.
  22. So is this the true TIAM?
