Anyone here tried Neverwinter? Apparently I missed a price mistake in certain countries (country?) on the $200 DLC for $0.99 and my friend 7extonly gave it to me so I feel compelled to at least try it. I think there was a similar mistake elsewhere on the Mighty Quest for Epic Loot DLC that I missed, and that was one I actually wanted to play.

Edit: I forgot Metal Gear was releasing today.

Don't forget to post some pretty screenshots from MG Rising on Steam, everyone! I want to see that quality.

This is one of those games that would really benefit from downsampling.

Seems a little unoptimized.

Not using my SLI correctly, which is fine, but I'm getting 50 FPS at max settings right now.

You should try to find the .cfg/.ini's for the res etc, I'll probably try to tweak it later today.

Because it needs double the space to decrypt everything in the encrypted file before it deletes it, PS3 style.

Time for an upgrade man

much space

so next gen

I should start a charity fund.

Because it needs double the space, PS3 style.

Yeah I figured as much. But the preload is still going. I guess it's managing with the limited space it has. It's fluctuating between 5-8MBs lol.

And then people ask me why shouldn't they install Steam on their C drive...

Not like I had much of a choice is it? lol

Play TWD and Volgarr and let the strategy games for when you have a lot of free time.

Thing is I actually have plenty of time now :D

You've got lots of good stuff going on there, but I would go...

Rome
Torchlight 2
Civ 5
Dark Souls
The Walking Dead

In that order, but most of those games are quite solid.

Guess I will start with Rome then, switching to something like EU4 or Civ5 if it does not click. But for times when I need a break from stragegic thinking I will keep TWD at hand :)

I lost my swag

lol no wonder I couldn't find a config file.

I have my documents moved off my SSD, but MGR went ahead and put a save file there anyways. They even made their own 'documents' folder.

I find the helicopter one much more interesting.

I actually have a helicopter game called Search and Rescue, but it's a few years old now, and it was a boxed copy, not on steam. Is this Steam version just an updated version of that game or by someone else? I may have to research that, as I quite enjoyed it. In fact I should re-install it and see if it even runs on Win 7....

yeah thats not the problem. Problem is preloading you can't tell it what drive to install to, just uses the steam directory. Unlike when you install, you can choose whatever the shit you want.
