    Yes, I understand, because people WILL pay for an advantage over other players. Like I have if you read my whole post. I'm just saying if they did that model I'd like F2P more. (I probably worded it wrong) Its also why I try to stay away from F2P games. Though games like PS2 I'm running with the subscription option as well as buying gear.

    From my experience F2P normally turns into P2-Win. Taking some of the excitement out from a few areas of the game. XP bonuses, stat bonuses, etc can help change events. Grouping might take a turn when you group with some one who is gaining 50% xp each kill. More recently with GW2 and Planetside 2 being able to buy gems and convert them to gold. I recall myself buying some gems, and just filling a courtyard with pure siege just to defend it. With Planetside 2 I already bought some more powerful weapons for my characters and vehicles with RL money. I didn't have too, but I did cause thats how they normally make their money in F2P models. Off people who do use RL money to buy items. Sometimes F2P can be good if the only thing they sell, is pets/dyes/patterns/etc. Nothing that gives an edge to progression of a character.

    Is there anyone still playing this game? I'm curious to what server everyone is on, plus curious to what faction everyone went with.

    Mine is currently acting as a door stop, paper weight, or platform for monitor/fan. I got it(32g) back with it released *yay* but I was(still am) in the middle of moving, so its in the box being used in a different way. I could technically pull it out and hook it up to my tv in my room. Just don't think its worth it since I'll have to remove it and the tv in about a month to a new apt.

    V6 or the R/T? I'm assuming since you said its your car w/o the RD pic its a RT Either way, The Challenger is a great car Also for detailing, I recommend Mequirars car care items Here You can get them at pretty much any store, and the products aren't badly priced.

    I would think overused would be the now "text talk"(lol, brb, otw, omw, etc). Overused in places where its not really needed. I could understand actually texting, or gaming. Why does it have to be used so much online though? Though coming from playing MMOs since the 90s, I would guess majority of that "text talk" came from MMOs . I just find it overused on the internet. Its why I like this forum, forcing you to make 100 characters minimum.

    interestingly enough, I know in the area I'm at it'd be a funny thing to see. Heck almost nothing but trucks and performance cars at the college i'm going too. Well..maybe about 50% are gas hogs, some are mpg vehicles I'm sure in some areas its not odd to see a man driving a Smart car I should add: not makin fun of your bf, giving props to driving it

    22, have license and a Car. My car is the 2011 Camaro SS/RS. Few mods I have, Longtube Headers, High flow cats, magnaflow mufflers, and a CAI intake system. Pretty much as unenvironmental friendly as you can get

    I had doubts when I saw it previewed. When it started though i found myself sitting though watching it. Still too early to tell if i'll continue watching or not. I had the same feeling when I started watching MLP. So I'll end up watching further episodes.

    its cool if you think its a good game. Don't think anyone is saying its a bad game either. Its just not an original game anymore. Yes lasers..what difference does it make in a run 'n shoot game if the gun shoots lasers or a bullet? Multiplayer is still going to be pretty much cut and paste from past CoD games with minor improvements(more toys, gametypes, etc). World at War brought in new things too. Flamethrower, and even tried to bring in Vehicles (pretty sure there was more, just don't recall). It didn't kill the series, in fact, all it did was get people to buy, and wait till the next one to buy. I honestly only buy the CoD games now for the story line. Even then I wait till the games on sale, just not worth it imo for full price.

    My mom used to play games on the N64, and Playstation with my sister and I. Now the newer games she doesn't get close to because they hurt her eyes. Now she plays tetris online when shes watching tv, or this game on her phone. My dad however, thinks they're a waste of time, and doesn't even care for them.

    it depends on the kid if they're mature for their age, which can happen, i'll talk to them and hold simple conversation in game. Though it amazes me how much adult content these kids know for their age I remember when I was in the young teens and pre teens I didn't know nearly half what they do -_- if they're bratty, I'll troll them and just be a complete jerk to them. Actually landed one to go grab his mom to try and defend him. My friends and I had fun with that one This was before the xbl party system went into play. Now my friends and I just get in party to avoid that. with PC, I bought a vent server so my PC friends and I don't worry about that either Although sometimes one of them will bring up "hey theres a kid in here, lets troll him" and we'll go check it out Especially when they're complaining about explosives and how newby they are...my friends and I have our "troll" setup using 40mm, C4, and everything explosive on CoD games. in BF3 we just do the old fashioned jeep bomb or get creative.

    really? I have steam installed on my laptop that also has Windows 8. Is there a news article where this is being said? Just find it odd to believe.
  14. Gigachip
    Other: I wouldn't mind living in the world of Dark Age of Camelot. Being an assassin or tank in the realm of Hibernia. Only because a lot of the lore in the game comes from mythology.
  15. Gigachip
    my friends are achievement hunters...so I'm lucky that they do join me when possible. though sadly, I ran out of my xbl time. So can't really request help if I do need it

    general media Guilty Pleasures

    Gigachip replied to Steamgamer27's topic in Media Discussion

    Would have to agree with what you put. Plus I cant think of a guilty pleasure either but that's also because I don't hide anything.

    I like to think, honestly believe its true too, that I'm that one random guy that pops in to post in a few threads. Sometimes I'll even over load my post with smiles just for the fun of it.

    for multiplayer I'm just in it for fun. Used to be in it for skill, but then I realized I was being to stressful when playing like that. Now I get on and bs while I'm playing. I'm the guy that on MW3 runs around with explosives just for the heck of it Plus its funny to annoy people and get that random Javelin kill or 40mm kill from across the map -_- Even then I don't really want to play it, I'm just on it because my friends are playing. If theres one game I do take serious is the BF series of multiplayer. I try to be as supportive to my team as possible. thats exactly what I do as well I can't enjoy the game unless is on its hardest. Even if it means I have to restart from checkpoints a lot I rather do that than have an easy ride.

    my biggest complaint about WoW, is the easy mode of what it turned MMOs into. Coming from games like like EQ, DAoC (when they were the main MMOs). It just seems to easy and lacks the challenge. Even the PvP is too easy for me. Now I know the way gameplay that there was back in the past will not be returning. So I have to adapt to the new ways. Look at games like GW2 who tried to bring back 3 way fighting. People are complaining though if I can manage to find one thing good about WoW, is that the armors look cool

    I would have to pick Makarov from the Modern Warfare series of games. Found it interesting that he did what he had to just to get something done. Regardless of what can happen.

    I recently did a clean install of Windows 8 on my laptop. Pretty interesting as an OS, it really is fast in boot than Windows 7 for sure though.

    What do you drive? '11 Camaro SS- L99 (Automatic) What are your thoughts on automatic? fun to drive, though having paddle shifters and a tune took away the most of the sluggish feel behind the automatic. What are your thoughts on manual? Also fun to drive, but require more attention than automatics. Can be annoying in city driving due to constant down and up shifting. If you drive manual, what is the gear that you use or like the most? I don't drive a full manual, but during "manual driving" I keep it around 3 or 4 sometimes though, I'll keep it in 2nd just for the fun your general opinion about the thread interesting because we get to see what people drive as far as stick/auto

    I sided with the Autobots. Mainly because my sister and I both drive the same model of car (camaro). She bought one that is Yellow and black (like bumblebee) and decided to make it a Decepticon. I then decided to join her in siding with a team, and went Autobot .
