  1. Hah. I had similar with the FFXIV beta. Took nearly 2 days to download, then when it was they had downtime for the weekend then expanded to a week then when it went up I had an update to grab. Eurgh. It may of been extreme but I don't mind that the dev team getting fired over that one.
  2. err. I was using about 12. Hence my use of the word "tabs". It still leaked and as I mentioned it still does the whole reload thing on tearing. Regardless of RAM usage (which as I noted was still only like 1-2% of overall RAM installed) Chrome still comes by default with many conveniences that lead to a much nippier browsing experience. You can see plenty folks here have commented how they moved on from Firefox due to it's sluggish nature. Firefox was top dog. Back when it's only competition was IE. Chrome n Webkit came in and shook things up a bit and Mozilla have obviously rested on their laurels a bit much cos they've been very slow to react. Chromes 6 week turnover is stupidly fast, but Firefox has taken over a year to get from Alpha to release. Which is the opposite end of the spectrum at stupidly slow. With that pace of development they kind of have to come out of the door well ahead of everything else or just scrap their current update method altogether. Of course competing with IE that took 5 years to go from Version 6 to Version 7 and with 6 still around does put you in a lazy mood that could be hard to shake off. Thier current dev speed means Chrome has had stable release with HTML5 since end of '09. Firefox only supports HTML5 in the beta version.
  3. Yeah console gamers tend to suck at the whole teamwork n cooperation stuff.
  4. After Jalaman started playing Moulin Rouge songs last night I decided to grab it. Just watched the Like a Virgin scene :P

  5. I love you Sindo. Medics are awesome, but a rare thing in this game. I must of had someone who was used to TF2 style cos I had a medic tagging along with me on one game. I felt a bit shit when he got killed right after reviving me. But I avenged him!
  6. You sure on that one? http://torrentfreak.com/100000-p2p-users-sued-in-us-mass-lawsuits-110130/
  7. http://torrentfreak.com/acslaw-and-mediacat-completely-shut-down-both-their-businesses-110204/ Nevermind drop the case, they closed their entire business down rather than face court

  9. Kotaku when I woke up: Something feels a bit off... *check RSS* But that can't be right. Because you see: http://kotaku.com/comment/35900468/ Hmm.... You know it'd be awesome if all these policies n what not that they supposedly had were in some kind of policy page. They don't exactly follow it to the letter but : http://www.joystiq.com/ethics/ Just something where they cover what they'll do with promo stuff (post about them like the PR puppets they are), article correction policy (correct it, give no indication, make early commenters look weird), article removal policy (it's an issue with your PC), and stuff on how they cover rumours, misleading headlines, and such. But I guess the main reason this "polciy" that supposedly exists isn't actually up anywhere officially is because it'd make it oh so damn easy to call them out on it. http://handbook.reut...ards_and_Values - I'd maybe start here. This kind of stuff doesn't just apply to Kotaku mind. Most gaming sites. Surely it'd be a better world for all, writers, readers, developers & industry, etc if some kind of code/policy/guideline was adhered to. Oh and for extra Brucie Bonus: http://kotaku.com/comment/35752908/
  10. And that's what stopped me at Ravenholm The person below me button mashes in fighters.
  11. Lifesavers? Polo the mint with a hole.
  12. Oh I thought as in the last game you had on the KZ3 beta
  13. Weeks? It's only been running for 2 days hasn't it? edit: no not on all day. I have a habit of just leaving my PS3 on idling. It's quite and I've had it on once for a weekend accidentally so I know the hardware can take it. So while I may be "on" I may not be playing.
  14. Yeah I posted here: http://tay.gappoi.or...dpost__p__32792 In relation to the new speakup "forum": hmm..... So that's even worse than the current thing, no front page link and unless you're 'featured' you're fucked. Also toggle star is a bug, it's a mod feature, but visible (not usable) by regulars.
  15. I'm kinda on. It is 7am though I'm deciding between pulling all nighter or just hitting the hay for a few hours, doing my stuff then hitting hay again at 2 for a recharge. I think I'm going with the second, but I'll be up for some KZ3 tomorow. Oh I'm rank 11 atm.
  16. Guys on steam bitched at me for the lack of 2.0 as well. As for servers I'm unsure. I'm gonna pop on TF2 soonish though.
  17. Well keep in mind I've not done too much forum promoting until we swapped over, so it may not be gappoi related. More than I have since last promoting the forum been banned.
  18. http://beta.kotaku.c...#!speakup/forum - This is the new Speakup "forum" format. It's even worse than before as it combines speakup with all the comments from the "speakup on kotaku" comments too. :/ Also seems to only be star n promoted comments. Anyone with a star want to say what they see? Cos there's also no option to see all, even in the main article comments too. Either the featured comment or what are currently classed as featured comments (stars/promoted) So at the moment the new format is looking less community orientated than it was before.
  19. Funnily it's them that sparked the idea. If it wasn't for them making TAY on kotaku we wouldn't of had folks going "you know what, a proper forum would be a good idea". I find it laughable they've started adding into TAY "this is kotaku's official forum". lolforum. It's almost like they're scared of this place. Also once again lolforum. It disappears after a day, it was part of the whole reason of this place(s).
  20. Need 50 to win the round. Hell yeah edit: oh n sorry on the lighting and it all being a bit blurry, only had 10 seconds to take the snap. I've changed the light metering now.
  21. I just got booted off Well general impression is it's fun. I won't be buying the game though, not really concerned with the story and I can get my FPS fill more than adequately on PC. Need to find out how I capture control points. Also I should maybe play more than the TD mode.
  22. Tactician + Shotgun + <- D-pad = holy fuck you kill everyone.
  23. 4 matches in I've gone from 8th to 2nd place in team and can now buy a shotgun. MUHAHAHAHAHA. MUHAHAHAHAH. But yeah I picked up the controls pretty quick.
  24. Also does this game have friendly fire or is that blood spurting out of team mates who get in your way just for show?
