The UN pushers for DPI want to make DPI a rule for ALL aswell as mandate filtering globally that means if China doesn't like something, they wanted to filter it everywhere, not just in China. So yes, the UN attempt here was to push for more control, more Shadow Government and more Bullshit. Not neutrality.

And this push came from China, Africa (bought by China) and Russia (the worlds best democracy.. lulz) in case you didn't guess that already.

To be honest, I think this is the best battlefield 3 experience so far. Playing conquest large with 64 players on these maps is absolutely awesome. So many.. so many ways to get to points, huge vertical gameplay possibilities. This is how maps should have been... wow does this make Metro look like crap.

Social pressure means their closest friends Not some abstract community. The inner circle of their monkeysphere, so to speak.

Most cheaters on the Internet would instantly stop if we could get into their inner circle and chastise them there. It doesn't need violence or any other method, chastising them to their CLOSEST friend is all that's needed. Of course, shaming them by real name is the approach vector for that, but in a sense that's like the nuclear weapon ;p

Nah it's more like that our eyes are much much faster than 30fps...

In the end, it is a simple task management problem, 24fps is making your brain work less, giving it more time to enjoy the story, sound, flair, ambiance etc....

There's solutions posted earlier in the thread, but I'm just going to say it's overkill. The only time you should need to nuke an OS install from orbit is when it's so screwed up, that you can't fix it. This though, is fixable with enough patience.

Yeah I read the solution below/above whatever Someone should have told me about that a month ago

I had the same issue on Vista and since I upgraded to W7 it's gone. So maybe it's an OS related issue with the drivers, but all r300 drivers from nvidia did that for me.

Well in this case it's not his fault, if you license an engine, you gotta run what the libraries need. And you wouldn't believe how many BASIC engine libraries require 32bit...

That's a sign of the fall of an economy.. not a sign of a shift in corporate policy. Also.. Assembled in X means 15%-20% of the thing was assembled in X, basically they put the screws in. I am sure the screws alone amount to 15% given that you could literally just have the ready components and mount them... that'd easily be above 20% of the assembly, when in reality it is still all made in china, even the screws. ;p

But we ended up with lots of niches unfilled, AA RPG's , PROPER 4x games and let's not forget GOD GAMES (Sim Hospital et al). That's what really get's me.. because It makes no damn sense (not even economically)..

Kickstarter is currently soaking up all those niches and their potential and turns the ENTIRE industry around, now games are not made for profit, the "profit" is literally "making the game" because that's the only thing that's gonna get you funded. You don't sell profit expectations, you sell a hope to a game to people who WANT TO PLAY IT. Once the game is made any sale would be EXTRA profit. Can you imagine what an insanely good position this puts (some few) developers in?

Should any crowd funded Kickstarter game ever land a "hit" what would it do the publishing scene? Because I don't think big publishers would ignore that. They would have to fear developers do the entire range of development. And cut the Publisher out the equation.

I hope Kickstarting ends up giving us lots of good unique fun games. I am all for niches, fill them up, polish them up.. Paradox or Matrix Games need competition to start giving a damn about the level of bugs and lack of polish in nearly ALL of their games.

I am always amazed at how useless and broken Publishers can be to be honest. Sure 4 million is nothing in cash for a AAA title but there are a LOT of people who loved Baldurs Gate 2 or Torment. And yet it takes Obsidian as a DEVELOPER and some guts and 100k public investors who simply have HOPE to get it made, instead of a publisher, who's entire fucking business model and even reason of existence was supposed to allow for funding of "hit and miss" games were success was not guaranteed but which would need funding far above what anyone could privately organize.

Publishers really do everything they can to put themselves into a niche where a single flop means the end of their entire business. Does that sound like smart business to anyone?

Ehm no. Steam regional lock is publisher choice, not Steam choice. So if you tell steam "no regional restrictions" and you only sell 1 version of your game, then everyone can play that version of your game, no matter where they are. Sales in Germany might not be allowed then, but buying via 3rd party (GMG / Amazon, etc) is perfectly allowed.

The reason Steam enforces the German version is because the publisher made a German version and enforces it specifically for Germans. Again, 100% Publisher, 0% Steam. ^^

Secondly, the real issue is that Steam has STILL no age verification.

Yeah, with coffee you can instantly tell it does something related to the drug effect strength, for me it is nearly the same, up to even a level of deliriousness. It got so bad I couldn't properly sleep for 3 days ;/ (Grape and Coffee don't mix well..)

Kinda surprised this only now becomes known. Grapefruit has been banished from my list of stuff I eat for nearly 5 years now. Of course, nobody in my friends circle believed me so far.. hah

Exactly because of the above issue most (smart) people do not use TOR. Or would ever consider even running a node. But in Tor you can not know where else data went through, the only "point of entry" you have is the END node (which was what the guy who got busted here was running).

So yes, they would have to arrest everyone else, but they can't.. so they settle for the lowest hanging fruit. Like the police always does.
