lol, when did the thread title change?

This should be the Steam thread title.
I dunno if they will. The combat is the same as it was at the start of early access. I was really hoping they'd work on it, but it doesn't seem like they have much at all.
Edit: For anyone who backed Kingdom Come at the Baron+ tiers, the technical alpha is now available! 2.4gb download.

Im so glad I bought Evil Within on PC.
Even though I stuck with the 30FPS it stayed constant aside from a few very rare dips.
Everything else was great though and using the FOV fix was excellent.
Honestly think They did that because it helped performance on the consoles.

I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
I liked Nolan's Batman and the first two Ironman movies. The rest, not so much. The Avengers was so boring.

Nice that it got updated, but it appears they still haven't added proper controller support. I was hoping they would finally fix that.

Woke up and read the last few pages, people preorder bundles without knowing what's in it?

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.
I'm getting ready to start streaming some Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor over on my Twitch channel to make sure everything is set up for my 24 hour stream on Saturday.
Feel free to pop in and let me know if everything is working correctly in the chat.

Offer to give away free copies of Enhanced Steam in the chat.
Well. I've got first hand experience on SE3. I saw endless legend described as Civ in a fantasy world. I have yet to verify that claim
Endless Legend is great too!
Eh, a be mine bundle is usually worth at least 2$, and this one was.

So what do you get for preordering instead of buying it after it's released?
Everything for 2$, instead of having to pay 0.5$ for each game you select.

Preparation for Extra Life? Nice. Best of luck to you (and everyone else) doing stream marathons.
It also added a slew of bugs and other issues and broke WinXP compatibility for the unfortunate folks who haven't been able to upgrade (and from the number of comments, there are more of those out there than you might think). It's great that they're still updating and adding content, but I think it could've used some more time in the oven.

GeForce Game Ready Driver For Civilization: Beyond Earth & Lords Of The Fallen Available Now: http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/geforce-344-48-whql-driver-released
Is this the new trend of drivers? "GeForce Game Ready Drivers"?

Honestly, they're the same fucking driver updates as usual, but it seems like marketing has decided it's snazzier to attach upcoming/just released games to the description to make them sound more exciting.
!
Increasing performance sounds good, I've had the game tank to single digits often in the final level (unacceptable). Will definitely check it out.

Oh. That's really a shame.
Having not looked into EL before purchasing, I honestly expected an Age of Wonders-style battlemap for the combat... so it was a little weird to see "world combat map" that appears. The current system has an attempt at depth, but lacks solid mechanics to make it tactical and fun. The worst part is that elevation and movement cost/pathing are very difficult to discern at a glance, leading to unexpected actions.
The combat seems OK at first, but once you get higher techs it becomes a battle of the sponges. It doesn't help that the lack of direct control leads to unpredictable or erratic actions by some units. Especially egregious is the Proliferator (Necrophage Support) attack, which is used to parasite enemies, oftentimes targetting allies for no effect at all.
Honestly, I don't know why AMPLITUDE has such trouble developing combat systems... neither the player nor the AI benefit from the current set-up. Both Endless Legend and Endless Space have had less-than-desirable combat, but at least in ES the combat was designed for speedy resolution. Bummer.
EL is still fun, though, in case anyone was wondering. AMPLITUDE is commited to further development of the game, so it will only get better over time. It just isn't quite there yet.
I was expecting a fixed profile for Borderlands: TPS.

I didn't tried it with a controller but looks like you still need to use a mouse on the main menu.
I agree, using the custom scaling value that I was using before causes the game to bug and appear nothing on the screen.
From the little I played the performance is really improved, still need to reach the last level and make a ton of mobs spawn to see how much it improved.

Asscreed: Unity system requirement
Poor Shadownet.

in my opinion once windows stops supporting it
you give up hope on anyone else doing it
upgrade your shit
according to steam its less than 5 percent of the userbase
maybe just have the old build that you can opt into for those people if they want it

I see a lot of locking of 30 FPS + Ultra in many people's future.
Poor me (7950). I'm hoping those recs are overblown, though.

New Steam Client update (non-beta): http://store.steampowered.com/news/14734/
Possibly for system RAM, but assuming "recommended" means "max settings", the rest sound reasonable. Watch Dogs definitely requires 3GB VRAM for ultra textures.

Is anyone else having problems with writing reviews for games? I've been trying to submit one for days now but I keep getting an error message saying to try again later.

Because they never have War Machine.
Did you get your 970(s) yet? I might delay my playthrough of Unity till I upgrade my gpu.

It's Ubisoft, there is no guarantee that it won't run like shit on monster rigs.
it's a fantastic game. I was doing nightly matches with a friend a few weeks ago and it's by far the most fun I've had with a 4x game. Every race plays completely different, the artstyle and graphics are gorgeous and the combat is pretty good. What's neat is that every race has a main quest that you can do that spans usually the entire game; it's a neat diversion to do if your currently stalemated or just waiting for research/building. I played the roving traders which are the economic victory race, and it's an incredibly fun way to play that game. You can't declare war as roving traders since it's 'bad for business', so I was sitting on massive stockpiles of dust (currency) and precious resources and just bribing/manipulating every side against each other to gain profit. What's really cool is you can hire merc armies and set them as a neutral, flagless army and wreak havoc on enemy territory without them even knowing it was you (which I did alot =P). The only thing I don't like is some mechanics are never explained so you have to rely on user guides to understand some important stuff.

why can't there be a good avengers film?
fixed
I wish I got 1 980 instead of going for 2 970s myself, only because my second refuses to arrive and the "new rig" buzz is wearing out fast. That and SLI still seems finicky from what I read here and there. should have just gotten that 980 and not worry about it anymore for the next 2 years
