Was just thinking about this game a earlier this week / checking out some of the dev logs to see how things were going, just about perfect timing for a new trailer lol.

It's kind of ironic don't you think?

Valve's spent so much time(and money) on the likes of Proton etc- specifically so they can be free from the whims of a relied on third party platform(read M$). Yet here we are, a relied on third party platform dictating the very essence of valves commercial model- choosing what they can and cannot sell.

Heh doesn't affect me.. Battlefield V Battlefield 1 Battlefield 4 was the last good battlefield game..

Spoiler, click me

Actually this really is a bummer.. I've got a few workmates I join for early saturday morning BF1(only time we all have available anymore with kids and all), maybe we'll find another game, but I'm going to miss how it is now.

Quoting: Doktor-MandrakeDo you happen to know the drm situation in mudrunner?

Apologies, I don't usually login so I missed your question. I don't know for sure, but I was able to tar up the game files (ver.28.09.22), and run the game on a system without steam installed via wine with no problem after a quick winetricks -q d3dx9 (although as you've mentioned I'm not sure how long it will go before the game complains about being in offline mode)

Highly recommend MudRunner, its older, but still getting new mods and there's enough trucks and maps on the workshop currently to keep you busy for a _very long_ time. If you've got a wheel its better in my opinion than the newer snowrunner game since the shifting is actual shifting vs just swapping between high/low/neutral etc..

Its also great game to play while watching mediocre tv shows/movies as well. Ground through the entirety of GoT in a little over a month just playing this in the evenings.. and I only completed like 6 maps..

Quoting: StalePopcornGet your M$ accounts now, bitches—they'll be linked to your SSN and .gov accounts before you know it.

Pulled out the xbox a few months ago to introduce some family to Halo, fired it up just to find all my local accounts were gone and the only way to play was to sign everyone into a M$ account... needless to say we opted to do something else instead.. the xbox isn't much more than an overly expensive bluray player now.
