Nice, I got in as well but I leave town tomorrow. Pyro will be old news by the time I get back.

I loved the original so I will probably play this for nostalgia’s sake.

That’s what I thought during the trailer. How did we go from fighting on the front lines in an alien war to hiding from pirates on a junk ship floating down the river? Plus you add in random physics puzzles and the game seems kinda all over the place. They said they wanted this to be Wing...

That’s probably a good plan. The multiplayer is not easy to get into but for those that enjoy it there is nothing else on the market quite like it.

There is, it is still not great but it is better than nothing. After you create your character and select your starting planet a window pops up recommending people play the tutorial if they are new. If you hit ‘skip’ then it dumps you into the game with minimal tooltips. In the future while you...

It does have a tutorial. Did you skip it?

Not directly but keeping tabs with updates. Pyro preview channel for Oct 31 is pretty exciting!

D3 was a pretty slow game at launch. There weren’t a ton of good items and no +5000% damage set bonuses. Crit chance/crit damage rares were some of the best you could find. I stopped playing for a while and when I came back after the removal of the real money auction house it was way easier...

Ya I was pretty happy about that as well, I didn’t expect to get one until SQ42 released.

Some of the stuff in 3.21 PTU is exciting. It’s super optimistic but if the replication layer testing goes well they might have static server meshing in evocati testing by the end of the year I imagine.

Dual sticks is the recommended setup, some people use an omni throttle for the left hand. Pedals are good as well if you don’t want to have one of your movement controls on a twist axis.

I would imagine so. I’m expecting slightly better than the planets in Mass Effect 1. I’m hoping there will be a number of hand crafted main planets/cities but I expect the rest of them to mostly be filler with a few resources.

I’m not offended just letting you know your ignorance is calling out a few people in this thread, that’s all. I can do a simple risk/reward analysis when purchasing games and decide if it’s worth it to preorder or not.

Hey some of us morons are in this thread.

I was hoping to possibly go back to Intel for my next upgrade, but this refresh doesn't sound very good and I would likely have to get a new chipset for whatever follows it next year. I guess I will keep waiting and see what the next series of AMD brings and what Intel is rumored to have next year.
