If it goes on sale, I full well endorse the game. It's like Tribes meets TF2.
Knew that they would. It's only a matter of time before the game goes completely 'F2P.'

If you were in the beta and still have the installation you can just login and play. I think you had to have 10+ hours in beta though...not completely sure.

I doubt a full F2P system will come in to play considering they already have an extensive demo. I just feel bad for them not doing this sooner, they've probably lost a huge amount of customers over the original monthly fee.

I really don't like monthly fees. Don't mind paying $10 or $20 (uh, I'm cheap), or even $40 or more if I REALLY want something, but monthly fees kill it for me.

Don't suppose WoW will ever nix the monthly fee... Warhammer On-line, Conan... There are a few I'd enjoy playing. But never paying!

Hey, I have a question. Is it possible to remove and/or block a Steam friend (hopefully just block) without him knowing I blocked him? It's NOT a CAG, just fyi. Someone I know in real life :P uhhhh and he's just kind of a dick. Not a bad dude, but I don't wanna play with him and don't really wanna talk to him either, and I'm tired of hiding in offline mode :P

Is that why I never see you online, Jesse? I'd love to play sometime, but you're never there. :P

I'd just remove him, but you can actually block him and then I think he wouldn't know.

It's either an option, or just the lowest difficulty. I forget.

When they do I will send a zombie horde of roamers saying 'Told ya soooo...brains!' You will then have to fend for yourself

Agreed.

If you think about it as <$1 per game, it doesn't sound too bad, but you'll probably end up not playing most of them and only enjoying maybe 2 of those games at best. So... buyer beware.

Okay, moving this TFU discussion to the Steam topic. Which is more than I can say for the other posters after that mod or whoever said so.

EDIT: Latest and only patch?
I booted it up a few hours ago. It's still got sound issues.

The game is still broken. I know what I'm talking about.

I had the left channel surround sound problem, which I "fixed" by switching to two channel and my headset, along with a couple bugs here and there (worst being the game not transitioning to a cut scene properly, leaving me running around the end of Shaak Ti's level confused until I reloaded to a checkpoint), and being firmly annoyed by the 30 FPS cap.

I'm sorry you got stuck with that sound problem, I really am, but the attitude you're bringing into this thread is a little much. It's a terrible port (really, just saying it was done by Aspyr gives THAT one away) but for this price there's no need to rage on people for wanting to play it regardless.

It also probably hasn't been mentioned, but stay far away from TFU unless you have a 360 controller. Aspyr did the smallest amount of work possible and didn't even add the option to rebind keys in game and stuck it on the loader. In addition, the default controls are awful and when you *do* change the keys they don't update to the new ones for the QTEs. There's also a specific section of the game that's significantly harder with KB/M. It's reeeeally bad.

360 controller works perfectly though.
Then maybe you've got a particular sound hardware configuration that agrees with the game. Or maybe you just got lucky. I think it might be some sort of random glitch, actually. The first time the sound acted up for me on the final level, it did so in a slightly different way than it did ever since. Among other things, there was music. After I tried restarting the game in an attempt to fix it, even more sounds were missing, and there was no music.

Hardware configuration or dumb luck, it's a crapshoot, it's a terrible port, and it's broken.

Did they even bother playing the game beyond the extent of the first 15 minutes? I doubt it. They probably impulse bought it, played it for a little bit, posted that they had no problems, and forgot the game ever existed. You know how Steam causes us to have backlogs.

Figured I'd better follow suit, although all I wrote was, "For the record, I didn't think Chuplayer was being a troll... Maybe he could have phrased things in a less incendiary fashion, but he didn't mean any harm and was in fact trying to help. He seems a passionate fellow."

Well, assuming he's a he, but either way.

Way to not answer me, Jesse. :P

Chuplayer was definitely being immature and annoying in the other thread. When forced to shut up, he even got one last dig in. Kaltic was quite justified in calling him out on that.

haha sorry! Yeah, that's why I'm always offline. That and I'm always doing laundry and dishes and stuff, back and forth from the PC, and people were getting annoyed at me for weener-teasing.

Or did I not answer you about something else?? I'm frazzled between all the threads.

I beat Chandra just now. WHAM YEAH grizzly bears.

Well, yeah, because a ton of people actually play and remain subscribed to that game, enough for Blizzard to pull in well in excess of a hundred million dollars a month (which represents over half of the entire MMO market). So, Blizzard doesn't have to resort to these stupid measures like going free-to-play-with-premium-items or whatever like all these other shitty MMOs have to do in desperate bids to try and counteract their dwindling player counts.

Not that I don't wish that WoW would die, but, yeah, MMOs that start out with monthly subscriptions never go free-to-play because they want to, or out of the generosity of the operator's hearts.

It doesn't send them a big message saying "Hey jesse dylan removed you!" or anything, but all they have to do is notice they you aren't on their friend list anymore.

What are you even doing in this thread, exactly? We're talking about buying PC games, in here.
