90 is the FOV that doesn't cause motion sickness.
This is not as good as having an FOV slider, but a fuckton better than a fixed low FOV. BUT THE CONSOLES WONT SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CONSOLES.
seriously thats why the fov is so low. It's designed for someone looking at a screen 10+ feet away.
Fucks me why they will port it to a pc then spend next to no time to fix these sort of things - greed i guess, poor dev choices another? Either way it's retarded. |

"Fan feedback is important .... We're going back to the roots of what made C&C so popular"
Pretty sure it was the chessy b grade cut scenes with somewhat decent gameplay that made it popular. MP was always just a bonus. Dunno maybe im alone on that but turning it into an always online MP only doesn't really seem like its getting back to C&C roots at all.
Well i guess it's not like they can do any worse than C&C4... right? |

I don't know. if it looks like a duck quacks like a duck then it prolly is a duck. the tweets are just too baiting for me.
having said that if it is genuine he is most def a massive ass hat that is totally disconnected from the user base and probably looking for work in the near future. |

Don't hate, just being realistic unlike some people. Online only hasn't and won't stop dupes/hacks. Also i recall people stating that god mode was known for ages -- just not well known. Those that found it kept quiet and abused it well over a month (quick search turned up this notice the youtube vid date and subsequent patch removal.
Thankfully an indie dev stepped up and has provided an ARPG with pretty much everything i wanted (PoE). Still doesn't mean I'm not disappointed with how blizzard "sold out" for the rmah inclusion. |

I've never seen anyone with duped items, god mode, etc. but I've seen them in just about every single other game I play online. As far as the effectiveness of the system, the account restoration problem is a minor issue that has little impact on the game, certainly nowhere near the scale of D2 duping and won't at all anymore. How do you know you haven't seen anyone with duped items? Also god mode? vid.
Honestly stop sucking on blizzard teat for a moment and have a look at what your saying. These things still happen. |

I've never played a public game at all - probably never will. So all of my time in co op is spent playing with people i know. So sharing an item that has no worth to me or is a larger upgrade for a mate isn't a problem and vice versa to them. I guess with the AH everyone wants good drops. It translates into a resource to get better items.
Not everyone played D2 with public trading in mind - i only traded with friends and vice versa. Decent drops weren't so rare, well what we considered decent, and talent choices played a far more important role over gear to clear the game. All of that was turned on it's head with D3
Honestly the design of the game just plain sucks. It's fundamentally flawed with the RMAH/GAH - guess that is why there are so many changes coming in the PS3 version.
Just to be clear we gave up on the game after clearing ACT I in inferno a few weeks into it's release. We all realized that we spent more time on the GAH than actually in the game as it was much more efficient to flip items for gold than play the game to obtain them.
As to the changes the game has had since then i can't comment on but D3 burnt the bridge for me - i won't be going back, not whilst the AH still exists. |

Dunno, can't get around the fact that PVZ2 has had a long time in development whilst EA have owned it. You just know they have monetized the fuck outa it, cause they want to capitalize on their investment.
Disclaimer: Of course I've never played PVZ2 only going by what EA has done with every other company they've bought. Would be pleasantly surprised if it is as good as the original without 50,000 different micro transactions for different items\plants. |

This isn't item duping by way of cheating or using hacks. This is assholes abusing Blizzards account rollback policy for compromised accounts.
Reading comprehension is hard.
It's no different from any other exploits which later get patched out. Those that exploit early and often generally reap the rewards of doing so. |

Thats one thing i never understood about the cheating argument. How the hell does online only protect people from cheaters? If anything it only exposes them to it. I guess the only true reason for online only is RMAH. It's the only viable reason.
This whole fiasco is made even worse with the latest info from the PS3/4 Version. It pretty much has everything i wanted for the PC one -- shared drops, offline mode with local co op and the biggy - No AH. |

name me one PC gamer who's never heard of torrentz, let alone doesn't pirate most of their games. now name me one Console gamer that even understands how it would be possible to pirate a game for the PS3...
logic much? i don't have to listen to wtf a publisher says, i know from my own eyes and ears that %90 of the PC gamers i know pirate their stuff, while i know of exactly 1 console gamer who has a modded xbox 360.
lol, i guess i'm just a shill for the publishing companies though right? and unable to make my own conclusions with my own judgement from my own personal experience...
*ROLLEYES* Yer and how many of those people are people that buy it on the console then pirate the pc version cause they feel their entitled to. Or how many would have never bought the game anyway cause they have no money? How many downloaded it just to check it out, found out it was good then went and bought it? Just cause a torrent has been downloaded a million times in no way means that they lost one million sales - I don't think you could even try and translate it to lost sales.
Fuck idiots think that piracy is so black and white. Sick of shills or fuck tards making sweeping generalizations and lapping up the bullshit PR media companies spill.
Its pretty fucking simple - make a good game and people will want to buy it and support the company. |

Yes it sucks, but that's the reality of the games industry today. It's the publishers driving it that way tho. EA just wants the next CoD or WoW - they're outliers.... NVM just noticed who it was 'RollinThundr' the corporate shill |

It's a moot point, im sure somewhere in her contract there would be a clause that she could only do 'approved' advertising.
Most of you skipped over the sheer marketing brilliance from Dish. By forcing CBS to pull the tweet (which they would have had a fairly good idea that it was going to happen) it's brought way more attention to the product than the tweet ever would have.
Between that and the CNET thing the best marketing Dish have had is from CBS. Somewhat ironic. |

Jerykk wrote on Feb 27, 2013, 23:13: As for PC being the lead platform for Watch Dogs, I'm guessing that's just referring to the technical aspects of development. I'm pretty sure the actual gameplay will be designed around the use of gamepads. This. What's Ubisofts definition of "Lead Platform"? If it just takes advantages of the technical aspects of a PC (Graphics) but still has a gamepad designed gameplay/UI then that's not a PC game to me. It's just a play on words as they'd be able to port everything to the new consoles regardless.
I honestly can't remember the last AAA game that was designed for the PC, a ui that works well with the k/m - instead of text i can read from across the room and click boxes that take up 1/8 of the screen. Shit even the Witcher 2 had a console designed UI - which was absolute garbage (UI, game was great). |

eRe4s3r wrote on Jan 25, 2013, 10:17: The potion system has a pretty big and stupid flaw though. You can't stock up on health once you ran out of it in a boss fight. I guess it is a design choice, but if you used those 4 health and 1 mana you are completely done for. I played up to the boss medusa thing, got her down to half health but here stupid freeze attack... anyway, after that I quit and never intend to come back. The potion system works great against mobs, but if there is only 1 extremely strong enemy you are essentially rolling a dice before the battle even starts. With the random misses (hate that too) and that enemies can interupt a skill attack costing you mana ... not the game for me sadly.
(And yeah, I guess stocking up on stronger healing is a solution to tackle the boss, but that requires grinding, a lot of grinding. Wow really?? You can just drop a portal and refill flasks in town. What a rant for something that is so easily overcome**. Ya part of the problem if a solution is not readily apparent ya give up and move on
Stock up on Cold resist (20%+ rings avail from vendors) and you probably dont even need to use more than 2 health potions.
**Not sure if you can do that in cruel/merciless or custom maps but def on normal. |

It just amazes me how well GGG have done with this game. Really makes you wonder wtf blizzard were thinking with their game design. PoE is just miles ahead By comparison. All they need to do is implement something like the TF2 Hats where end users can make their own items (cosmetic no p2w shit) and post them to the store - that business model seems to make valve shitloads. Really hope this game takes off and gets 1 - 2 mil players.
I'd really love to have seen what they could have done with blizz resources assuming this is up to date, it just boggles the mind. |

Just because there's a bit of work involved doesn't mean one should pirate it. It just comes down to availability imo. It's easier to pirate. You can't argue that. Until that changes i don't think piracy numbers will ever drop off. It's a digital world and they're still trying to practice business models based around 1990. Until the dinosaurs in the suits making the business decisions move on little will change. |

Why does the customer have to jump through all these hoops to try and do the right thing. They're making it very difficult to pay for stuff and obtain it in a timely fashion.
When it's easier to make purchases at a reasonable price piracy will drop off as proven with netflix (see http://tinyurl.com/ahg7ed6 ). |

| Pretty sure HBO is owned or partly owned by Time Warner. That it self is the problem cable companies are holding on to outdated business models as one of their primary form of revenue is generated via cable subs and they don't want to risk any change to that. Instead of giving customers decent options they try to lock them in, where as, in reality they are just driving people to piracy. |

playing devils advocate here though.. it is one of the cheapest tablets available. Granted that you're just playing devils advocate but even so; wouldn't you make a purchase based on that info? Unless it was a specific feature "Can drop onto hard surface - just bounces back to your hands, no damage done!!!!" I can't for the life of me think how you could blame the manufacturer when you drop it from waist height (~3 feet).
