Steam Release, probably.

Is this horseshit on Steam now? I don't see it.

I'm trying to update this since it sounds like they brought sexy back. For some reason, when I run it I get nothing, not even a pop-up and nothing in Task Manager. I'm running the repair tool in the folder now.

Are any of you goons coming to the PGI Steam Launch event?

That would have required me applying, although I live in the area and thus I could have gone fairly easily. Also it likely will have free drinks which would fit nicely in my budget.

I lost my stuff when I came back, they suggested the normal things and when I told them it didn't work they almost instantly replaced the stuff. It was actually really cool.

Speaking of Steam, you should do a blog about the shonky "developer" publishing as 'Digital Homicide'. You should be able to find plenty of material.

Because they knew a fast paced brawling game would draw people in for the steam release and make the game seem popular / make the bad reviews look like the ranting of crazy people.

Expect all the positive changes to be slowly reverted over the course of the next six months, but be pleasantly surprised if that doesn't happen.

This, this is what I can't wait to see on Steam. Renaming "upinya" because . . . it's slang? Banning people for "bofa?" This will play real, real well on Steam, I'm sure, when players can review games without filtering by the company.

Developers can curate the reviews for their games, but they can't do anything about that big red thumb that reads "mostly negative".

Good to know. Do they have to adhere to TOS things for Steam or will they still be able to ban people for saying "bofa"?

Always start with 'not giving them money.'

That said, I did have fun in a splatcat last night.
The way the extra SRMs are bolted onto the launchers that should have more than enough room for all 3 (18 missiles < 20 missiles) is dumb as gently caress though.

I... I... I actually had fun last night doing 12mans with goons for hours. There was much squawking like ye olden days. Much brawling. Centurions ruled the day as we played our own version of NASCAR with SRMs and the pubbie teams got to roleplay Dale Earnhardht to our wall.

I feel ashamed of myself. :suicide:
