  1. So, I'm thinking about getting this game during the Steam Summer Sale. Any advice?

    I'm a bit nervous, since every review I've seen so far calls it a great game... then goes on to list tons of flaws. :huh:

    Anyone know when the Steam Summer Sale starts at all?

    June 11

  2. Respect and remembrance for all the ordinary men of all nations who accomplished extraordinary things in the midst of hardship, upheaval, death and cataclysm.

  3. I'm actually waiting for the frantic pace of alpha/beta development to slow down before I really get back into KSP.

    The result of my play is usually .craft files I want to release publicly, but that was difficult in the past when a major new update would come along every two months or so breaking everything old and changing things up.

    Once official development really slows down, only then can I see myself diving back in.

  4. The power of the GTX 960 is quite bad for its price (at least here in germany), you could get almost a R9 290 for that money which is way more powerfull.

    An i5 is allways enough for gaming if you dont need the extra lanes of a X99 chipset.

    Agreed - The R9 290 is a sweet spot for price to performance right now.

  5. I would not recommend War Thunder simply because it's grindy, pay to win and if you want to get anywhere you will have to fly/drive Russian stuff because game favors soviet equipment.

    I have a few f2p games, mostly mmo`s like Firefall, Defiance and EverQuest II - lots of fun.

    I've been having a lot of fun with German armor in WT. I agree that the game noticably favors Russian armor, but it's nothing that sufficient skill and tactical prowess can't overcome.

    It's all the more fun to outplay the tough Russian tanks with my "inferior" Panzers. It kind of mirrors real tank action in WWII, when German tank crews often came up against Russian heavies with comparatively lightly armored Pz. IIIs and IVs and had to use their skill and experience to come out on top.

    Oh and as far as the OP, I would recommend War Thunder and Path of Exile too.

  7. 1: Fill a glass with water.

    4: Pull sandwich bag out from underneath.

    5: Walk away. :D

  8. I have some questions about cities skylines.

    Is there a demo available?

    Are the Paradox forums broken? I'm getting 404 errors.

    What is difference between standard and deluxe?

    No demo yet. The only difference with Deluxe is a few extra landmark buildings and a soundtrack, not worth it imo.
