I don't see any of the books in the kindle store. It doesn't look line Baen offers any of them in e-book format directly.

My suggestion would be to complete it as it is currently (a Privateer game). It would be easier to create a new IP from the ground up rather than gut out bits and replace them as you notice them.

Now the real trivia question is which mission is that?

I loved sniper strafing with the lasers of the Banshee.

I don't think it's for want of talented developers.

If it uses Havok and you don't have PhysX it'll just dump it on your CPU.

Last I heard the limitation is still 5 maps, 10mb per map, 20mb total. I've also read some really silly stuff about their rules policy concerning custom maps that makes me wonder what the point of including the editor was. And there's no real mod support? Just custom units for maps?

I think I've seen maybe three games that use PhysX. I'd say get whatever is the best upgrade for you for the price.

The kneel is definitely a rotoscope. The walk cycle is awkward enough to be fully hand-drawn.

There are a few indy sim developers that are getting along just fine. They don't shoot for 2-million unit launch days and have very long development cycles due to a small crew. They are far off the radar, but that doesn't mean they're totally dead. I have a strong feeling that Starcraft 2 is...

Starcraft 2 has no in-game support for AA, but ATI released beta drivers the other day to allow it to be forced through the driver settings. The realtime scenes look fine. I would've preferred prerendered everything but I understand it was a decision to keep the game's size from getting...

Something I just found out... There is a button at the 'login' screen: Play as Guest. That allows you to play fully offline. You may have to still log in at least once to activate the game. I don't really know. I'm not doing a full uninstall/reinstall just to find out.

On the contrary! I am being satirical of all the 'realistic' sci-fi nonsense that's been in print about beyond-visual-range engagements and time distortion and how nobody has invented anything better than radio so they have to send orders five minutes in advance. 'Realism' is the bane of my life.

If we were talking sci-fi realism, the movie is unrealistic because it's not about ships built around giant railguns shooting each other from so far apart nobody can see anyone else and targeting is done entirely by computers. Boy, wouldn't that be so exciting to watch?

That's a good quick-sketch for not drawing in a while.

That's the driving difference LOAF is after. It's an open discussion, not some website format that doesn't allow for commentary.

Naw. I'm a toys-r-us kid.

After you log in to SC2, if you are playing the campaign and your connection drops you can continue playing and it will save locally*. The only thing you lose this way is the achievements. As for whether battle.net will die soon, Activision-Blizzard is the gaming mega-corp least likely to be...

Better yet, change it to something witty! Then we can say he was useful in absence.

This thread delivers... ...a lot of stupid people who lack consideration.
