No, you can't just say you're not being pretentious, it doesn't work like that.

Okay, your pretentiousness levels are too high, dude.

But if you're not participating, right now( and I don't really believe more than half of what you post.) why does your input matter? You aren't playing the game, so wtf cares?

I'm starting to get the feeling that you either don't understand or don't care about the modern competitive scene. Either way, your input would be meaningless since you wouldn't be participating.

JFC, I am so tired of these.

Except that people win looooots of money playing this, and the only way to ensure that noone is cheating is to make sure that everyone is on equal footing. And especially when the console market is so casual. The amount of players who are actually willing to buy hardware for consoles is so small that it wouldn't be worth it for Blizzard to accommodate that. Either be good within these parameters, which are easy to verify, or you're trash.

Oh, I see your confusion, you think this is referring to PC's. No, it's only referring to the console version of the game.

Are you not understanding that you have to use 3rd party hardware and software to make KB/mouse work on consoles?

Well, no, it's because consoles don't natively have support for these input devices, and therefore it's not Blizzard's responsibility to support them for the console version of the game. It's not like the PC and Console communities can play together anyways (there is no cross-console multiplayer). Restricting controls levels the playing field, which is INCREDIBLY important for a competitive game.

[quote quoting="post"] At first glance, i have to admit I'm concerned. I myself don't like the cartoon look with things, and i know other people don't like it as well. This group, does not play WoW or other games like this, because its very hard to have a more serious approach on it and it just bugs us. Its probably to late to even make comments on this, but if something could be done, to apply more realistic non-cartoon-ish look to things that would be super. [/quote]<b

I've also asked this before and would appreciate an answer. Seems like Riku is the only one confirmed. I know it's in good

[quote who="cwrightc84" reply="17" id="3665496"] I definitely appreciate the insight on the game engine choice. I am definitely concerned about the 14 GB draw for RAM that the Nitrous Engine is preliminarily requiring. Optimization is a huge issue for a lot of gamers. Note that even the most sophisticated and graphically intensive games have not yet really surpassed 8 GB on average. The recent Rise of the Tomb Raider general

I'm probably closer to a 3-2, but that's also because I'd like to know, for example, if the game will run better on a CPU with multithreaded cores, or if I'll need to clock my RAM up for some ungodly reason.

IBNobody is fucking with y'all, pardon my french. The keys haven't been released yet. Shame on you, Nobody.

Not even in dlc or an expansion", could the AI code from that be salvaged in the way of a drone module? I.e. a module that allows you to launch 1-2 smaller

So, in the event that someone at Stardock goes "3v3 just isn't happening ever, period. Not even in dlc or an expansion", could the AI code from that be salvaged in the way of a drone module? I.e. a module that allows you to launch 1-2 smaller AI-controlled drone crafts that will focus your target.

If we're going to add planet lander upgrades, I think we should be able to modify individual landers. Have a limit to how many modules can be on each lander, and then the player can specialize landers for specific jobs. IE a Hunter-killer lander, a packmule lander, etc etc.

[quote who="Hunam_" reply="165" id="3663282"] Why is everyone focused on puzzles? I mentioned puzzles, 'cause I like change of pace in all games. I can't constantly be chasing and shoot shit. I thought it was apparent to everyone that the puzzles themselves need to be contextualized to not affect immersion negatively. I also mentioned racing games and mini-bosses. What mini-bosses can we possibly fight? Bigger versions of critters? Base siege? Planetary soccer? Maze ru
