    I'll be there if I'm done shoveling snow.

    I don't know that the Devs ever stated that, Flux, but I certainly thought we were getting a new city in GR. It doesn't seem like the case now.

    It could have been either, but Nemesis would have been the more interesting result.

    I've passed the Dhoom baton to EB and Flux, but doesn't this still represent schedule slip for GR? Also, I'll be extremely pissed if GR is only side-switching + 1-20 + end-game content now, because pretty much everything else we're going to have in April.
  6. And Dual Pistol Closed Beta starts today for you Loyalty Program participants.

    I'm right there with you.
  8. TV might have been dishing on I17, since the news broke today.
  9. Didn't see this coming (before the whole Aeon/TV thing, anyway).

    So... the new content is you fight yourself? Or is it a full blown Nemesis system?

    New Issue in April is a Good Thing™, though. Makes me wonder what's left for GR beside Praetoria and the new lvl 1 -20 content.
  10. I can bring a VEAT, too... actually, I can bring any AT, but my Stalker is my main so I'd like to get the badge on her.
  11. I think this Friday is good for me. I can bring my Stalker.

    Obviously it was approved... many people called that we would get both, but it's a testament to how hungry the playerbase is for content that we're willing to play along with the lolRP.

    So, again, is this going to be a full Issue then? Also: when the hell is it coming out?
  14. Burn!

    (That you're going back to WoW, not the Saints thing... )

    Just now, I think...

    GP, you've got a new bete noire!

    I hereby rename myself to The Poster Formerly Known As Dhoomy MG.

    No need to bring Voo into this.

    Anyway, to the point: if Ultra mode and "new content" is being pulled out of GR ahead of time to quell the unwashed masses, then yeah, that's not good. I don't have that feeling though... is my blessed naivete coming back?

    Flux, I'm just happy to have a shiny to be distracted by. GR could still be a bust, but new content is a Good Thing™.

    Laugh it up, GP... while waiting for Steam to come back I had to play CO for a few hours.

    I did make it to lvl 20 with my Munitions main, at least.

    A "contest" between Dr. Aeon and The Television. Basically, since TV is in charge of graphics and stuff, if Aeon wins then we get Ultra Mode prior to GR, and since Aeon is the content guy, if TV wins he has to churn out more stuff before GR.

    At the moment I'm not sure if this will be a mini-Issue or a full blown I17. I'm guessing mini-Issue right now.
  21. I got this while trying to install King's Bounty: Armored Princess (I just finished the previous game):

    Dammit, Steam, why do you have to make Voodoo look right!

    EDIT: Apparently there is a "scheduled maintenance window" from 6PM to 9PM PST tonight... Really, Valve? Who the hell schedules downtime from 9 to midnight Eastern?! This is madness!

    Yes, there were multiple ways to get:

    A) Lost in the past/Trapped in a Time Loop
    B) Killed
    C) Turned into a Monster/Robot

    My daughter picked up a "new" Choose Your Own Adventure recently and I asked if her she got sent back in time... she got that result the second time through.

    I did love those books, but it was damn hard to get a good result without working from the result page.

    It's long overdue.
