Trying to get my girlfriend to play Minecraft

Sun, 19 May 2013 03:55:11 +0000

So this isn't the most serious thread, and I'm not sure if I'm on the right forum. Sorry if I'm not! Anyway my girlfriend lives 155 miles away so we don't get to see each other too often, and I like Minecraft (The PC version of course). Well I've been trying to get her to play the amazing game with me, both because I believe it'd be a fun thing for us to do together, since we can't really hang out on a regular basis, and because I need someone to play with :P. Thing is she really just won't budge, and refuses to play the game with me, because she says it's "too nerdy" and her friends agree So far I've told her I thought it'd be a good activity for us (that didn't work) and that I have another girl who's willing to play with me (which is true) to make her jealous. Somehow I can't convince her that it really isn't a nerdy game, I know kids from my school who would be considered "popular" who like to play the game from time to time. It's not a money issue by the way, I'd totally buy the game for her.

But yeah. Not the most serious thread, but I'd love to hear your guys' responses as to how I could get her to play. Joking, funny answers are welcome too those are always a good time :)

I added the pole just for fun really.

help make a Dev Decision DRM Free or to Steam

Sat, 18 May 2013 23:16:05 +0000

As a developer I'm getting pull around by the CRM free craze that's happening. On one hand I love to provide hassle free games but on the other, I dont want to get my games pirated and end up broke and on the street.

I'm thinking of releasing our new game Artifact Red-X DRM Free as a Kickstarter pre-sell promo. You can check it out and give me your thoughts as to if this is a good idea.

I know KS is becoming a dirty word but it does allow indies like me to get out there.

Also if anyone feels like helping to spread the word for the project, that would be awesome

thanks and I look forward to seeing what you all say

WildStar

Sat, 18 May 2013 22:29:15 +0000

WildStar is pretty much... what that video above just said. An upcoming MMO, from Carbine Studios - comprised of developer from various other MMO backgrounds. To be published by NCsoft, it's yet another MMO I'm following and eager to try out as from what I've read, heard and seen - it sounds like it could be awesome.

Like alot of MMO's, you have two factions; the Dominion and Exiles.

Each factions have their own races. Only three have been revealed for each so far, but those two videos above should give hits at the 4th's (more-so their classes).

There are in-total 6 classes, 4 have been revealed; Warrior, Spellslinger, Stalker and Esper. Each race is restricted to what class they can play, bar the Humans on both sides... which kinda sucks (like in SWTOR).

This game also has 'Path' system, allowing you to play or approach the world differently. There are 4 paths, Explorer, Scientist, Soldier and Settler.

They also have other neat features, like Player Housing, big-grouped Raids, Guild Forts etc (excited for the features that are missing in GW2).

This game is looks promising, and I'm really hoping this is a B2P game and not sub-based as I think I can really get into it. I could link loads of gameplay videos, but I'll just post GS's Now Playing video and you can search for the rest if you're interested.

RAM question

Sat, 18 May 2013 17:34:06 +0000

Is there a way to focus most of the RAM memory into a certain program so that that program runs faster? Maybe this doesn't have a thing to do with RAM, I'm kind of a n00b here...

What Games excite you?

Sat, 18 May 2013 02:54:17 +0000

I havent really been excited over a new strategy game. I dont mind the new Xcom but I love the old one. I also used to play Earth 2150 and Dune.

But in the last few weeks Ive gotten all excited over EA doing Star Wars games and a little unknown game Artifact Red X. Im excited because it looks like it might fill that strategy hole ive had for a while and when the disappointment of EA's SW titles washes over im hoping this little gem does the trick!! Im popping in the link http://kck.st/12f43aR so you can see it - I noticed its endorsed by one of the guys who made Earth 2150!!! (hence why i linked it)

the SW news is all over the web so im not linking it here.

So what im saying is, what game, maybe its a small indie game or a blockbuster really gets you going? and why??
And any favorite game designers?

Game tester job anyone doing it?

Sat, 18 May 2013 01:25:13 +0000

Hey guys,

Nowadays, I see more and more game reviewers on YouTube who are popular enough to make a living out of their videos and brand. Athene, TobyTurner, ZX etc.
Thinking about this I thought: wouldn’t it be possible to be a game tester for developers / companies to beta test their games and get paid? I know it probably sounds more fun than it really is but I do think it’s something I really would enjoy (also the developer side of things etc).

Looked into it and came across some companies that have tester positions from home. Does any of you guys have experience with this? How many hours do you need to work and for what pay?

Article Im talking about: http://videogametesterreview.wordpress.com/

Please let me know or give me some tips. Thanks.

Rift Going Free to Play

Tue, 14 May 2013 16:42:05 +0000

http://www.polygon.com/2013/5/14/4330252...ay-june-12

"Trion Worlds' fantasy massively multiplayer online role-playing gaming Rift will go free-to-play on June 12, the developer announced today.

The full game will be available to all players: access will be open to all zones, dungeons and other content and is guaranteed for all future updates to Rift. The switch will also give all players access to the expanded in-game store, where they can purchase boosts, cosmetic details, mounts and other items."

I'm not sure if this is perfect timing since I just started playing... or terrible timing :P

Kids cursing in advertisements

I've seen this done a few times for shock value and apparently Groupees (who is similar to the Humble Bundle) just did the same:

Over the top or alright?

From the looks of the dislike bar, seems like a lot of people weren't too happy...

The Anonymous Voice Changer:
What is it?

It is a complex tool, believe it or not. This tool allows you to have the voice of from the famous
group Anonymous.
How to use?
The tool has a very nice, and slick layout in which it is text to talk.
Enter your text, press enter, and out comes your voice. You can export the voice into
a .wma file, then you can put it anywhere you like.
Are there any other features?
Yes! There is indeed. You may have seen these tools floating around the internet wil false claims of
high expectations. But this is different. We actually have a feature where you can use the voice on Skype, LIVE.
Imagine voice chatting with your friends in the Anonymous voice. That would be classic! We have done it several times.

Where can I get this tool?
Right here: http://www39.zippyshare.com/v/31253094/file.html

Will I get anything for testing this?

We really hope you enjoy this tool!

Thank you, Achievement.

Weird association or not?

Sun, 12 May 2013 15:56:59 +0000

For some reason Iron Maiden's Eddie reminds me of Unreal Tournament. I have no idea why though .-.
