| We have samsung and a handful of brothers here. Both are cheap to run but the samsungs are better. Nicer interfaces and decent priced long life toners. I do like the separate drums and toners on the brothers though |

| Rising storm was ok but brutal MP learning curve. Cheats spoilt it though, too many wallhacks. |

I remember buying a 286 laptop for 2500. It had twin floppy bays (no hdd). Work paid for it of course. Then i had a 386 25 with coprocessor addon. The thing is, its performance was worse than the amiga with 68020 2mb addon that i also had at the time.
In the space of 4 years i went from 16 bit computing to proper GUI. In the next 4 years orchid released their voodoo card and HL1 was released. The rest is history really.
Computing was an art back then, you needed addon cards for everything except the keyboard- sound, floppy, ide, network and vga were all expensive addons. |

So break Win32 and lock just about every large scale deployment out? We already run LTSB as a windows 10 deployment - no store, no cortana, no edge and updates via WSUS. I have ZERO intention of using client branch.
If I have to look at using the store as the only way to deploy 300 machines then I will move to Linux. Pure and simple. I will look at the bespoke software (like Sibelius, autocad, anquet maps etc) and see if there is a Linux or online alternative. |

Like i said, peak time you might get lucky. I was a very long time 187 server mod for ns1 and an ns2 preorder. I found the community to be more and more toxic, if you werent into the meta then the community were just plain nasty - god help you if you liked combat mod! That is when i threw in the towel. Devs destroyed the game base by not having a mod api or any sort of modding help- each patch killed the mods so over time people left.
It shouldn't have been a surprise that people wanted mods for ns2 based on what you could see on ns1. It was almost as if the devs wanted their vision of ns2 or the highway (a few posts got deleted for saying such things, even in beta stage...) a real pity.
Edit: 357 are playing at the time of edit. With a ping limit of 100 i see 2 full servers and 1 partial (europe) so i guess most of the others are in US. For comparison, 230 are playing alien swarm - remember that free game?

so a Californian court is going to rule on something run from Germany and expect the germans to comply?
Good luck with that. |

| Game is dead. A shame. They should have suppprted modding with a framework but with each patch needing lots of blind mod changes most of the kodders have left alomg with the players. |

quite easy for valve to implement. If the game has been played for more than 1 hour then the onus would be on the consumer to prove that it is faulty etc. If it has been played for less than 1 hour then the refund stands. Not exactly hard and can be automated (pretty much).
It will be problematic for games that form portions of a bundle (and games within the bundle have been played extensively) |

I suppose panel quality also makes a difference. My old XPS15 is 1366x768 but looks absolutely fine. Plus, being a lower res (native) means that its integrated 540m can still play games in a reasonable fashion partly due to a low res.
I'd rather have a better panel than just more pixels (on an inferior panel). |

IMHO rome 2 suffered from the same problem that civ5 did (for me at least), it simply wasn't as good as the previous. Rome 1 was an epic game and got lots of things right. It didn't need a massive improvement, simply an evolution of "drop the click fests". Empire total was was good but the ranged combat was marmite to most.
Shogun 2 pissed me off simply due to the artificial limiters put on you for expansion (to make up for the shoddy AI) mods did fix a lot of this though.
I'll not bother with warcraft as I have no interest in the warcraft universe. |
