Yeah its based on a popular Russian novel (same name).

Pretty sure it'll be semi-linear, You have to go to A to do the quest, but you can go somewhere else to do stuff too.

Also should note, this game is largely shooter and a small bit RPG.

Ugh, AMD and integrated graphics. I really couldn't give you an "expert" opinion, but I'd say you should be able to run tf2 on minimum.

Also, whats the CPU's clockspeed (Example: 2.8Ghz)

Its nice to see they are trying rather than spending lots on failing Copy Protection before baaawing at people about it.

*Sigh*

Not a fan of them I guess? Or just think its been done to many times?

WWII shooters are dead, and MW has a monopoly on modern shooters, so post-apocalyptic/sci-fi is becoming popular.

OH SHIT BALLS OH CHRIST! LIEK 7 GAEMS ARE NOW POST APOCALYPTIC MAKE THEM ORIGINAL GUISE!1!1!

Seriously, as long as the plot is good, and the actual game remains fun the fact that it is post-apocalyptic like the other bunch of games shouldn't matter. Now, seeing as apparently it is a big deal could someone please give me a list of games in that genre released in the past 3 years or coming out within 1.

My list:

Stalker and Stalker Clear Sky
Fallout 3 + DLC
Borderlands
Rage
The Secret World
Metro 2033

Also, this game is the 3rd russian game I am looking forward to.

If you can run tf2, then you have the specs to run HL2DM.

Now, I'm guessing from what you've wrote that the problem is that, everytime you turn something down it doesn't go down.

On that note, if your using recommend settings or something where the levels are "low, medium" etc then don't. And if you are pressing ok then you should be pressing APPLY.

How to increase FPS;

Options -> Graphics -> Advanced

Turn shadows to minimum
Turn graphics detail to medium
Turn AA to x2

Your game will now look nice enough and should run decently.

Oh that Venezuela

Everybody wins.

If you can't sell shit on Ebay, then do this.

Ask the officer to pretend to arrest you as well, so it looks like Some other guy "busted" this Bad Guy.

Your still new to the "fun" of Newgrounds.

Aren't you?

If you don't have $40 sell some shit on Ebay and link it here.

I'm sure some of it would sell and you could then pay this "Bad Person" back.

Its not worth buying anything anyway.

Its a shit game

Well, I've seen both Game and GameStation offer different pre-order only content in the past. Now, I'm not one for pre-ordering myself. I tend to wait for a few weeks until the price has fallen, unless it's an absolutely amazing game that I've been waiting for what seems like a lifetime to be released.

It does annoy me in some ways, knowing that not pre-ordering a game means that I have to miss out on some kind of feature. It always makes me feeling that my game isn't quite complete, just because I don't have this piece of content. I've never been one for buying DLC either, so it's highly unlikely that I ever end up with additional content for my games. I much prefer to own a hard copy than a downloadable version, so sometimes DLC does get released on disk, in which case I might end up buying it.

To be honest, being a PC gamer and never touching the rip-off that is the "high-street" or any form of Real shop has saved me lots of money and hassle with that sort of thing.

Have you considered buying games through online retailers (e.g. www.play.com)? They tend to be much cheaper and so you'd be able to pre-order them for the same price as if you had waited a few weeks.

Thankfully, I've never had such an experience in the UK.

PRO TIP:

Just go buy the game and don't tell your parents, if they ask say its this "Cool mod for Halo" that "replaces all the graphic violence with cartoon violence".

Simple.

They'd notice all of the added blood, though, and they now that Halo 3 is only on the 360, and I don't own CE or Halo 2...

Change the games name to that of a shooter, and argue that ITS A GAME and so they shouldn't be crying over cartoon blood.

Your parents really do suck.

That is a problem.

The only people that know anything about it know only do because of the god awful sequel that's going to come out.

To be frank, thats because its outdated to gamer who started playing since, lets say 2004. Anyone before that can get a great time out of Deus Ex, but not as likely for those who are used to Mass Effect, Bioshock and the like.

That game has a life span of 10 hours on any reasonable playthrough.

Do you understand threads? This is the second thread you've done a +1 post in with this shit.

Now you have more laser weapons and outcast armour :D

This thread can be summed up with:

I <3 Valve: "L4D2 boycott sucks because Valve are awesome and because the new game is more L4D, which was fun"
I <3 Boycott: "But L4D fails and the changes are more like Expansion or DLC tweaks"
I <3 Valve: "But the people who made the Boycott say the game is fun!"
I <3 Boycott: "So, because the leaders of something change sides or disappear then the argument is invalid, and it will remain a headless floundering failure?"
I <3 Valve: "No, but it shows that people could be wrong"
I <3 Boycott: "But that, that doesn't change my earlier arguments"
I <3 Valve: "stfu"

Or, to put it in other words:

WHO THE FUCK CARES THIS IS THE INTERNET, BUY THE GAME IF YOU WANT, DON'T IF YOU DON'T

Anyone here know anything about Animating/AI scripting?

If yes than please PM me, I have a request.

(Trust me, it won't be too hard and will result in epic win)

SEXISM FTW AMRITE GUISE!1!11!1!?

But, in all seriousness your Girl Friend is probably another one of those irritating Feminists making insane arguments, or you just need to spend more time on playing games.

No, its because men aren't so self conscious about their looks that they would feel the need to compare themselves to every guy they see, including fictional characters in a videogame..

Thiiiiiiiiiiisssssssssssssss

A recent UK survey found that around 93% of Women were very "look" conscious, while only (roughly) 20% of men were.

Now, when your worried about how you look, your going to compare yourself to other people, and that is where quite a few of these arguments come from. If you want to say that Female characters are under-developed then I can perhaps understand (Though the Female Shepard in Mass Effect was better, and all my favourite games this year had equally strong female parts the rest had the main character as a beef munching Macho-man with a hammer).

And leading back to the point;

If the developers think that a female character HAS to be sexy, then that isn't a great example, but then how many games have a normal man with no interest in sports, his country or weaponry?

Games like stereotypes, people like stereotypes, and male gamers like "bewbs".
