@zurv: So I've been playing the shit out of the xcom2 expansion, I think I like it a lot. It's kinda crappy that they have fixed a bunch of bugs/crashes/problems/load times of the original release of xcom 2 with this expansion, and have zero plans of porting any of those bug fixes to the original game (the one with all the problems), essentially forcing you to buy the expansion if you want a game that runs (I had system-crashing bugs in the original xcom 2 that required cutting the power to my PC). But it's a good game.
I especially like being able to do "covert ops" that lower the Advent progress bar, instead of always having to make contacts in whatever zone they have a building.
Hey guys, I'm having an issue with the new player. I'm running on Windows 10 (latest build) and using Google Chrome (also the latest build). I am a premium member too, if that matters.
The new video player hitches terribly, stopping to buffer every 3 or 4 seconds, and never stops doing this. It doesn't matter whether I choose HTML5 or Progressive, nor the quality setting. I'm having to go to youtube to watch videos because the hitching makes everything unwatchable on the site.
I swear this is absolutely true: When my friend Scott and I would play WoW back in the day, we always laughed about how if you boil it down, we're essentially getting off on watching our characters' numbers go up (via gear, etc.). I said "we should make a game where all you do is click a button and a number goes up, cut out the middle man. We can call it 'Numberplus'".
So it turns out we invented the entire clicker genre in 2005.
GF and I just picked this up Saturday. I have to say, it's probably the best looking, cutest platformer currently available. The artists designed the SHIT out of this game.
I think I might just like this one better than New Super Mario Bros. U, as far as side-scroller-ish platformers go.
