Never liked sneaking. I've tended to stay well clear of games that require it too - that includes the classics such as Thief and MGS. But I can see why people would like the challenge. :)

If Cookie ever reads that, he'll personally kill you himself.
I laughed when asked that lethal/non-lethal question near the start of the game. Like I was ever going to join the 'let-me-slip-you-by' brigade. The character's a half-man/half-machine of precision killing. To allow a mere guard...
It's a very unstressful game on the CPU this. My i7 spends most of it's time hovering between 6 and 8% usage - sometimes spiking up to about 20%. It clearly prefers meaty graphics cards as a priority and runs on DX11. Failing that, it resorts back to DX9 and skips DX10 altogether?

Don't forget m8 - that Deus Ex officially only unlocked in Europe yesterday. And it headlines the Steam store too - so every one will be nabbing it at the minute...
Oh, and good choice of getting it on the PC. Hacking sections are much easier with K&M!

As wilky says Steve - he's a good unit to have around. Pretty good range with his SMG too.

Kept nice and original with non-amphasite alloys, standard bullets and Dale Wintons in the headlamp units.
Across the way from our new depot. Nice and shiny too..... then it rained. :(

I could be wrong, but potentially the Evo driver could walk away and shrug his shoulders. It would be classed as a racing incident and there fore he would have to repair his own car - and that's it.
Shitter if that's the case...

Re: Steam
Definitely worth keeping an eye on which way your teams are facing. The mortar team is pretty good at providing 360 coverage, but the MG teams are definitely forward-focused. Quite easy at times to be caught out by your MG team ignoring an enemy coming in from a flanking side.
Yep -...
Really? Seems quite low that? For the record, my 98% standard 182 managed 166.4bhp over at RS Tuning. No 182 got near the 180+ figure without substantial work - Da managed it, but he had cams, map, etc...

You git! :rasp:
The Calliope's are lethal if used correctly! Like you say - position them well and they prove to be a very potent weapon's system. Keep moving them against the AI though as they like to rain down arty and/or rockets on the Calliope's position.
The Germans have...
Portal 2 is at The Hut for £13.85 on the PC/Mac, currently....

Just ordered it. :)

Re: Steam
I'd advise against the small maps initially - simply because you have nowhere to run and hide - or regroup if the AI has the upper hand. For starters, pick a 4 player map with one Easy opposition and close the other enemy slot. Have a Normal AI team up with you and watch what he...

Currently half way through the Caen map on the Liberation of Caen campaign. Iirc, the game steps up a gear about half way through the map with a panzer onslaught. Already managed the first two bonus objectives on that map - rescued the Canadian troops in the lower left of...
That's where I was getting stuck m8. There were several folders there, but the 'obvious' ones like Photos wouldn't let me drag and drop. It's obviously not the correct way of doing things. I'll try creating the folder first. Cheers. :)

Right. Without resizing and ratio issues, I'm used to finding a jpg, right-clicking and selecting 'Set as desktop wallpaper.'
What process is involved on Macs? I've just spent over 20mins getting lost in System Preferences and attempting to drag and drop the relevant jpg. The first few Google...
Liking the steelies - they go well against the main colour of the car.
Not sure about the rest of it - but hey-ho! Lower that (even slightly) and I think you're heading in the right direction. :)

Utter gash. Full marks to Nissan for being brave and trying to be adventurous with the styling. But they look completely hideous - they really do.
The rear and profile views are nothing at all to write home about. But my god - that front - from ANY angle?! Wrong, wrong and more wrong.
