GOL Cast: Bombarding Planets In Interplanetary

Myself and Samsai played it online together, he won obviously!

I think it's pretty decent, and quite a unique strategy game.

Also, rematch needed Samsai.

Quoting: WienerWuerstel

I wonder how this one will run on a GTX 970 on the highest settings at 1920x1080 then. I guess we will know more in 8-9 days :D
Oh god, poor me.

Quoting: ElectricPrismUsers are going wild over at the PA Steam Forum because DLC was promised free to EA backers @ $90 a pop. This DLC/Mod/Expansion whatever you wanna call it has made people livid - go grab your pitchforks and popcorn folks [External Link] .
I got my copy for free, so would anyone from KS. They said that in the Kickstarter update, anyone who didn't gets a discount if they already own PA.

There is nothing to get annoyed about.

Planetary Annihilation: TITANS, A Standalone Expansion For Planetary Annihilation

Quoting: ElectricPrismSo the original gameplay of Planetary Annihilation was terrible from a StarCraft BroodWar addict's point of view. Now they made a newer version of Planetary Annihilation for $40.

Well, I guess someone will probably like it, but It's a sad day for me knowing that that person isn't going to be me.
PA and what it is inspired from was nothing like Starcraft 1/2. I've played both SC games, and PA + TITANS now too, and I like them all.

Bummer. :'(
Empire Total War was the same to start with but they fixed it soon after release.
That one is still only Mac vs Linux, no Windows play.
Just means we need to arrange some games ;)

I have it confirmed from their PR that multiplayer is Linux-Linux only, so not cross platform online.

Quoting: fizzgigLittle mistake in the article. The game is based on the Unreal Engine.
You're rotally right. Wrote it on my sheet and then entered the wrong name here. :-/
Liam, would you? (Is there a possibility I could edit my own articles?)
Fixed it. Editing is generally left for people of editor status, so random submissions from anyone can't get messed up too much (if that makes sense?).

Testing The Latest Unreal Tournament On Linux

Quoting: michawell, the graphics actually look worse than most last gen shooters atm. So not really a great advertisement for UE4.. still looking forward to newer versions. =)
Well, it's in Alpha, as mentioned most are place-holders.
