Thanks Matt. I found reference to this "simulator" and wondered about possible use for the "fun" part of some training I'm running on the basics of offshore oil exploration & production for finance staff. No fun or even dull by worthy learning here by the look of things. I used to work offshore and know there is probably a decent game in the subject but I won't waste my time with this rubbish

Re: Men Of War: Vietnam

I remember playing men of war when it was released (and later red tide), being a CoH fan I assumed the transition would be fairly simple and ended up being a little stumped by the difficulty at first since it is definitely more 'hardcore' but later grew to really enjoy the game and now generally feel as though I am a better player overall for it.
.
With regards to Vietnam I wasn't overly confident transitioning since I heard it had some interesting changes and held off purchasing, so if I am lucky enough to win it will inevitably save me a steam sale purchase and give me a chance to get the game earlier, yay!
.
Sorry but the image on the Stronghold article was annoying me btw, so I shopped this quickly, use it if you wish.. gimme a shout if they're incorrect in any way. (updated) http://i.imgur.com/7u4My.png | http://i.imgur.com/1PTvm.png

Keep up the good work chaps. comment system sucks :[

"This is where it all starts going wrong. It begins with the Americans have a psychic GI training program, so every time I stealthed my sniper into a position and took a shot, the trooper would spin round, using his MG to block the shot and then lace the sniper’s position."
I liked this part the best.

Glad you liked it, but just to say the post is a bit outdated at time of publishing... the Open Beta finished yesterday, aand the players per round is 64 (on PC at least)?

I dunno, it's looking like a title I'd be happy to pay full price for. I didn't expect it to be as good as it is.

I've played the demo a bit too and I love it to bits. Will likely wait a while to pick it up at budget price but still well worth a look!

Well, I'm a little sold on this. Might just last me the journey to uni next weekend. Going to try the demo now so if it's half the game you said, I'll be buying it.

Saw this a few weeks back. That I7 sounds like its one of intel's 6 cores if their being honest. Which I doubt they are, because if they were they would of shown the render at least that 20fps they were talking about, instead they edited the footage. And even after that we're just taking their hardware spec at their word. What's worse is they've disappeared for so long with a brand new team, it now sounds more like their looking for investors more than anything else. I doubt there type of rendering will work any time soon. Polygons just take up less memory.

Oh oh oh... TF2 and shooting at Paddy? Sounds like a vicious plan!

Re: Games Make You: Portal

Nershly — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 11:54:55 -0000

You have forgotten to mention that Portal was a surprise hit. Part of what made it so awesome was that, for purchasers of The Orange Box, playing Portal was like biting into a delicious sandwich only to discover that, by some incredible feat of space-bending physics, there was ANOTHER delicious sandwich tucked inside it. DOUBLE the deliciousness. HOLY!

you can find your stats for your ponies if you hold your pointer on the horses name at the bottom. It will tell you what all you need. By the way, you can breed once all your stats are to 100 and your horses spirit is up. Then, a heart will show up. That's when you can breed. Just don't ask me how to breed. I'm looking on how to breed.
