I agree. But I bet the hardcore consolers would shun a K&M! :) Definitely. One could argue that Battlefield 2 and the games after that, simply wouldn't have existed without the free mod on Battlefield 1942 that was Desert Combat. DICE and EA ended up acquiring Trauma Studios after they did...

Probably a 'no' - but do both devices not have a HDMI connector? Would make things much more straight-foward. :) D.

ROFL at pre-orders. They are so random in delivery - whatever they say about promised dates, etc. What's to bet that Turner could pop to the local Tescos tonight and be able to buy five copies there and then? :) D.

The simple answer? Because we can. :) That's the difference between consolers and PC people. Consolers just want to press a button and away you go. No hassle, no messing, no updates, etc. PC people like to mess and change things to how they want them or not want - as the case maybe. There is...

Blame the original Wolfenstein for that! It did make sense in a lot of ways as the arrow keys are generally in an uncluttered area of a standard keyboard. Most of the early PC games defaulted to those and I guess it's just kind of stuck! It becomes second nature m8 - it really does. I never...

I'm the anti-Christ - I use the arrow keys. About as dirty and wrong to the WASaD boys as employing Gary Glitter to babysit. Essentially - arrow keys for direction. Right shift for sprint. Right Ctrl for zoom/scope. Delete key for Enter vehicle. One mouse side button for melee. Another mouse...

This was the main reason I bought a 360 pad - for this game alone! There, I've said it now. Keyboards and mice aren't always the best input device. Christ, that feels soooo wrong. I'm ashamed. ;) D.

I'm always respectful to what I park next to - though usually I leave that much space that neither my door or theirs will reach the other car! An appropriate time for a slight repost on an incident I had the other year. Coming back to work in a company Mondeo and I decide to stop at the next...

Battle Isle alternative.... http://www.asc-hq.org/ D.

Well I've settled on a compromise. Far from ideal, but it's a step in the right direction I guess. The Office 2010 installation (on my PC) doesn't activate using the KMS key - which was what I really wanted in the first place. Instead, MAK works ok, but I haven't managed to get this key pushed...

So there's no 64-player maps now? This isn't progress - we're bloody going backwards! ;) D.

6-player squads have been used in the past and work really well - Battlefield 2142 being a prime example of that. Four player squads are good, but I prefer the larger ones. However, you need maps sufficient in size to back them up! D.

Horses for courses m8. I'm in no way obsessed with gaming like some people you hear about - but after 31 years, I'm quite opinionated and vocal about actions or decisions that affect the industry. It's not loosing a 'grip on reality' - it just reflects your passion in something. I cried at my...

You shouldn't do. It would be no different to the reaction someone would get if they started a thread "Why I love car insurance" :) D.

Sad, but true. Unfortunately, Pandora's Box of how to water-down a genre has been well and truly opened now. There's no going back. I appreciate that games like ARMA are highly specialised and only appeal to a minority of gamers. But with mainstream FPS's, it's gone too far the other way, imo...

I still get a fair amount of texture issues in the big exterior environments, unfortunately. Indoors doesn't seem as bad - but on the quad-bike, the floor sometimes gets as bad as Michael Jackson's Billie Jean video.... :( D.

Re: Go Karting @ Pole Position, Leeds (November, date tbc) Definitely the £40 one for me. 1) Mike (any saturday) 2) BIGASH ( James Ashton) (Any day) 3) Craig ( any ) 4) -KarL- (any) 5) Darren S (any) 6) 7) 8) D.

Great info on here from wozzaa. :cool: I followed the first part of your instructions and I must admit, the game is playable now at least. Strangely enough (and even when it ran like complete crap before) - I don't recall seeing any screen tearing. My sole issue was with the textures. As said...

I use both on mine. There are much better (and more expensive) products out there. But for mainstream usage, they are pretty good imo. Shame on you for forgetting the camera though! ;) D.

Good thread there, seb. I think increasingly, there's a desire there by gamers to always tip that sense of balance in their favour - much more now than there ever was in the previous 'generation'. I remember plugging hours and hours into Soldier of Fortune 2 online in simple CTF games because...

I'm going to try what you suggested above m8. Just a question with regards to the 1GB VRAM you mentioned. As the 4890's I've got have 1GB onboard each, I guess that would make little difference if I ran it in Crossfire or not? I'll be running it in Crossfire anyway, but if it was disabled, I...

Just received another patch. Looks better, but it's still unplayable. No way could I put a couple of hours into at the minute. Still, they are heading in the right direction to fix it, I guess? Loved the text from Kotaku....... ;) The idea from the start was a game that blurred the lines...

....approx 5.30ish, this afternoon going past IKEA... D.

...parked up a two rows ahead of me in the car-park, this afternoon. Didn't see the reg unfortunately. D.

Chris - come on - how can a PC be classed as a relic when the 360 hardware is circa 2004? Seriously FLMAO at those Carmack comments he makes. What a complete prick. That 'interview' translates as nothing other than 'consoles are easier to cater for and have a bigger market share - so we'll be...

Unless they work a minor miracle in fixing it m8, I'd send it back. It's unplayable in its current state. D.

Tried it with Crossfire disabled, just in case that made any difference. Erm, no..... I'd be so ashamed if I was part of the team that made this. FFS people, there is NO WAY that this could have got through QC before release. The play-testers (assuming their were some in the first...

PMSL! So true! D.

Seriously. How could they release it in this state?? I accepted your Steam request too :) D.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!! WHAT A f**king JOKE!!!! It plays the intro avi (which I thought was pretty good actually) and then crashes to a completely white screen. This is a combo effort from Bethesda and id - two of the most well respected names in the industry and together they can't...
