Am I the only one who thinks that Frostbite 3 engine's characters animations are really bad? (unlike environments, which are generally great looking).

For example, Faith from Catalyst now looks like some sort of (emo) robot:

Or, perhaps they just look bad on the trailers?
Ugggh...
She was so hot in the first one...

So I just created 2 new email addresses, enabled them to use Gmail via my host, set up security and 2 factor auth and moved over a couple of accounts and their respective security settings and auth in about 20 mins give or take. I spent almost this amount of time the other day changing my email, security and authorisation options on Steam alone without any other setup. It's really not graceful at all.

So much better that she's unplayable on PC.

What if EA did a Ubisoft and came back to Steam but had an DD Client Inception dealio with launching Origin through Steam. Still no?

last week I went back to my film school to assist teach on a screenwriting course (they didnt pay me, which I found out later) and it was cool

reason im saying this is cause I hadnt written anything since they fucked me and a friend on a web series deal last year

BUT

I now wrote a short one act pitch on a Rocket League film cause I remembered that news about them selling film / TV rights

and I kinda dig it, man

Psyonix hire me

I bet Suarez is going to be the star in some weird Jason Staham, Transporter-esque role. I guess acting could be something he could get his teeth into.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

If they offered DRM free games, or just games on Steam, then I'd consider it. But otherwise nope. EA are the fucking antichrist, and Origin is their daily hate being pumped into innocent unsuspecting computers.

it's a bit like rollerball, but the weird "movie-only" justification for it is that soccer collapsed over its player prices, deep corruption and injuries, and since in this future we can fuel cars for very cheap Rocket League became the most popular sport in the world

it's also like a very refined thing, not like a mad max redneck type derby thing

but the main character is obviously an underdog "been a fan of the sport since little" kinda thing

Sooo Origin is their Soylent Green made up of all the dead developers and studios they bought up and gutted?

Since Rollerball in one of my favourite films (Jewison's mind not that bag of shite that came out in '02) this is an idea I can fully get behind.

hope the sale is really bad, i'm just starting to play a lot more on na league server and need the money to buy skins there
 
Killed Dominus and I reached Act 4. The first part of the fight wasn't too hard, just having too deal with two groups of three mini bosses and the enemies the kept spawning.

Though after I killed him his second form caught me by surprise and the raining blood attack was bonkers until I understood how it worked. The attack will reach all the place and the only point safe is near Dominus, but what was my worst enemy was my old laptop, the rain effect made the FPS drop to single digits reaching, so it ended making avoid some attacks pretty difficult but in the end I killed him with 4 or 5 deaths under my belt, nothing bad.
 
So the sale has to start pretty soon, right? It doesn't make much sense to have so few weekly deals this week if the sale starts after Sunday.

Tomorrow at update time?

It will probably start tomorrow. Daily deal only has a 24 hour timer.

Glad to see someone's brain is switched to the "on" position. :D

Ctrl+F 'sale'

I approve of this post.

Damn.

$14.99 for a game I was gonna buy? Don't mind if I do.

jumped on that hitman code because even if it ends up stinking i can always sell the code.

Hope they honor this mistake

I'm just hoping it's not a trick to get us to drop $15 and then have it just be the first episodic pice that you can preorder for $15 on the Steam storefront...

Shit! Can anyone help me out with Hitman?

I'm out right now and on mobile so I've no chance of grabbing it.

That U.S. address coming in clutch.

I have a feeling that this is for the first "installment" alone, but guaranteed beta access and the pre-order bonus are nice too. Might as well try it out.
 
Seems legit, especially considering the list price and percentage discount. Something tells me we're only getting the "Intro Pack" with this though, considering the price.

Oh well - since it doesn't exactly say, I'm guessing I can get support to compensate when the time comes if needed.

I'm assuming full since it's marked down from $60, which is the base of the full game.

But who the hell knows.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

Throw in a de-evolved fungus King and you got yourself a movie.

the best part of my Rocket League thing is that the in-game text chat of "What A Save!" and all that is an actual thing in the film, with pop-in visuals

imagine wachowski's Speed Racer as a visual reference

yo lets make this happen

For you.

You only get charged on release I think. That, and Amazon would refund you anyways if it ended up being the first episode only. What's happening now on Amazon is listed as the full version discounted, and they will either honor that or refund, they won't screw people.
