Wrong Bob, although I think we both joined GamingW within a month of each other.

Humm then sadly I'm stumped but welcome back.

bobjustbob my god man your back

We are doing fine but still not back at full strength but members keep come back i can see it making a comeback.

nobody will ever donate 10 grand so might as well make a joke out of it. and even if there were a "real" 10k prize i would personally never want to have lunch or have a launch party with anyone who donated 10k to be with me.

There has been 10k investors before in kickstarter but yes i doubt it too and I said it's a good stab at every kickstarter's top tire rewarded and good as a joke.

This looks amazing! I will definitely donate to the cause.

Other than Chef, who else is working on this project?

frankie for one http://www.frankiesmileshow.com/ Dose a lot of the art at least what i can tell. I watch his streams and know he did a lot.

sorry i am not "cool" enough to understand what there is to appreciate about the first game or its creators (who were mostly assholes in my many-year GW experience). i was not impressed with the original; it was all inside jokes/circle-jerking with bizarre neo-post-avant-modgarde dadagagaorig themes.

also it's "fucked-up world" not "fucked up world""

Well chef's been good to me over the years so I don't know where this is coming from and the game isn't bad ether nor that good ether.

The prize for $10,000 is brilliant.

It might be but I don't think anyone is going to pay for it. it's a good stab at every kickstarter's top tire rewarded and good as a joke.

DDay, an admin changed loads of peoples' names to fatboys # ?  way back, so they had another name before fatboys # 4

forgot about that and I should of know that too. I remember him being around as fatboy 4 stands out more then most of the fat boys since I remember him talking more then the others.

Whats was your previous name?

Afura I remember Fatboys #4 that is his OG nick name or at least a recognizable one since hes been around with that name. I think he used to use the old gw's ban avatar as his real avatar.

Welcome back bud been a long time since I seen you.

Huh, guess I'm lucky, I just have to plug it in and most games auto recognise my 360 pad.

I'm thinking you didn't read it all the way. He's not using a 360 but another controller some games only read the 360 so he had a program that will make his controller look like a 360.

I went ahead with the GTX 670 because I snagged it for a low 349.99 on Newegg as part of a holiday deal.

On another note, I have the ever-so CPU-intensive Guild Wars 2 and would like to avoid framerate dips. After I stick my new GPU in, would my Phenom II X6 3.2 ghz hexacore CPU be bottlenecking the GPU? I was considering an upgrade but wasn't sure if it was really worth it.

if you mean your going to get an 8 cores just make sure you don't get a Bulldozer  Faildozer. To be honest nvidia card's have cuda cores that aid processing like a CPU (hence better for rendering stuff but since the games you play are hard on CPU this should help.). So I would hope not one way to find out install it and see for your self.

i like you so far although id like you to change your user name as it is blasphemous 

God17 is a god he can do what he wants.

Yeah I'm kind of OCD...


Probably an exception...

Man for a good game as Max Payen 3 is one of them I would recommended a 15 dollar buy if it wasn't for the glitch that I hit.

When I go in to wall cover it's like 70% gamble of me getting stuck and I need to go into wall cover mode for 2 reasons one is so i can fire back with out getting plastered by bullets and two to build up slow mo bar. Normally I take wall cover when Slow mo bar is out since it takes time to fill. Slow mo is over powered since I can chill out there getting shot at the longest time but once it's gone it's a "payen" (hope you see what I did there) to get it back and this glitch isn't helping.

Please sell an organ or commit some crimes to support this video game.

When the news crew asked why you did it the crime tell them you did is for the shackles... I did it for Barkley.

Well, thanks for looking at our game.
Over 'n' out........................

Are they all the voices I made for you goblets and kill are me? just found this out today was hoping that you would tell me something when it was out. kind of didn't know till now.

On that note I too have the same processors. But I never had any issues with an AMD video cards but to be fair 7970 is going to be better and faster if you get the right one. but if you do some video editing or 3D rendering then go with the GTX 670.

What are you using this for? I know your using this for recoding. But are you using multiple channels at once or just one at a time and is this just you talking or music related. I will say I don't have a lot of knowledge in mixers (I have one for my let's plays when I play console games but it's not USB but the audio dose get sent out with video hard coded by USB ) I have more knowledge on per-amps that send USB out but that's limited to one brand and that would be tubeArt peramp USB

Also let's talk microphones for min what are you using?

This may not help you but here I go.

You can make an new PC for around 300$ to 400$ and play the games of the now with good high end GFX well not the best but can probably games of the now at full and you can save if you use your harddrive.

Note: Also note APU is a GFX and CPU all in one

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147099 $49.99

MotherBoard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131796 $64.99


Best APU: 4 Core APU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819106001 $104.99


PSU Comes with case


GFX card: Part of the CPU/APU but I will say it's on par with a mid 6000 HD series.

Ram If you have DDR3 use yours if not take your pick here i can find cheapest just to get it to run ay $9.99 but for this example I'll use a $51.99 Gskill RAM Link to take your pick: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007611+600006050&QksAutoSuggestion=&ShowDeactivatedMark=False&Configurator=&IsNodeId=1&Subcategory=147&description=&hisInDesc=&Ntk=&CFG=&SpeTabStoreType=&AdvancedSearch=1&srchInDesc=


HDD take your pick of any SATA HDD recommended you pick 7200RPMs Drive the higher RPM ones holdless and I call them suicide harddrives due to there fail rates or use the one you have provided if it's SATA in fact here is a link too all SATA 3.0 HDD with 7200RPM http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007603+600003459+600003340&QksAutoSuggestion=&ShowDeactivatedMark=False&Configurator=&IsNodeId=1&Subcategory=14&description=&hisInDesc=&Ntk=&CFG=&SpeTabStoreType=&AdvancedSearch=1&srchInDesc= But I'm picking the one I like and that one cost 79.99 1.5 TB Seagate

All that comes too $351.95 without tax.

Note: I also used power supply Calculator to make sure it was good I used 3 2700RPM and about 4 8gb ram in the calculator and got 315W so I used 400W PSU but you can use yours if you think it will work and hell may be better.

Another note APU will be like a mid tir 6000 AMD Card

Now for the question at hand

Best will only be the best till 6 months and to be honest it's not worth getting the best GFX card AMD 6000 cards are good, cheep and will play anything of the now and prospectively 5 to 6 years from now too and I'm not to keen on  nividia cards but I would say there better at making games or videos (things that would require rendering) and I'm sure there 1000$ card could beat AMD cards any day when it comes to the best.

If all you want to do is play newer games at good Frame rates go with any card made last year so it will be cheaper (I know nividia had some GFX card issues on them in the past like over heating and ect. so that's why not too keen on them since I stopped looking at them since they cost an arm and a leg and that issue turned me off a long time ago.) But now a days there looking good once more and Some times I wish I had one since I do video rendering.

So I hope I was able to help at all but you seem set on what you want to be fair use your brain on this it's not that hard to compare and contrast what is better.
 

HR does not do bosses right.  idk if you've ever played the original Deus Ex, but the moment I realized I truly loved the game was when I snuck in a back way to the the room where this dude who's been pumped up the entire game as your equal is sitting.  the dude is an augmented soldier who's bad as fuck, and it's been signposted multiple times that you're going to have trouble with him.  instead i went in through an air duct i had no idea lead to that room, saw the guy sitting in the center of it, and shot him in the head with my upgraded sniper rifle.  that was cool.


in deus ex the first boss is this idiotic dude who you have to lure near exploding barrels and then shoot the barrels (there are other more tedious ways to kill him, but the barrels are the quickest).  imagine a zelda boss with a flashing weakpoint, and then imagine it done poorly.


there aren't a lot of bosses, but there are enough where it's a serious pain in the ass any time you have to fight one since it totally takes you out of the game.

Well I think Uncharted 1 and 2 did boss fights right and they where only 1 in each so I wouldn't of mind a boss fight at the end of Uncharted 3. But let's be honest the story would of had to change.

I am almost 100% sure this goes against both the spirit and the letter of the rules that founded Ludum Dare, but unless you are using sprites or sounds directly from games you have previously made and released, it is not actually breaking any rule that anyone can actually enforce.

I tend to treat situations like those, the same way I do when encountering those situations while playing games. In that if it is something the game technically allows to happen, then it is a movie I always count as following that game's set of rules. (also: if you do find yourself in a situation where you gotta make a lot of graphics in a short amount of time, having extra practice at making arbitrary sprites is never a bad thing, even if they are all sprites you can't use to directly save time later on)

Well if you have them lying around form other projects I see nothing wrong with using them but yes if you just make them for a per Ludum Dare then yes its kind of cheating I'm just saying if you have them why not put them to use or if you made cool monster for  Art projected and a few quick alterations could make it into a good NPC monster I see nothing wrong with that.

Just saying it's good to have hobbies in art or making games. I'm sure it gives you an advantage regardless if you use per existing images or not. After all game makers can pump out code at a quicker rate and artist can make images on a faster rate. To be honest if you do both I think you have a higher rate to be successful as long as you keep your goals in reach.
