The price of this game is very high here in Brazil. How much it is in the US?

I have a Xbone S controller and the bluetooth dongle I use sucks, the ultra common "0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio", sold in a variety of models. While the DS4 connects more or less okay, the MS controller only connect fast on the pairing configuration. Later it takes all the time of the world to connect, when it does it. Funny enough, when the DS4 is also connected, the Xbone controller connects faster, go figure...

I noticed that the Intel bluetooth adapter from my laptop works flawless with it and the DS4, but I play on a desktop. Also I want a USB dongle.

Does anyone here have the TP-Link UB400/UB4A USB Bluetooth dongle? What is the output of the "lsusb" command in the terminal for it?

It is very nice indeed. Some games have annoying characteristics that a project like this can fix. What I wouldn't do for a Super EF-2000 project like this. Or "No One Lives Forever 2"? I cry only remembering it.

I would advise anyone on Linux to avoid buying it right now. not only it has disabled Multi-core Rendering (a big performance enhancer), but it crashes after you change options on the Video advance menu. These problems were there since early betas and none were corrected, so do not give your money to developers who treat us like this.

Multicore Rendering is disabled on the video settings? What is this, 2004? My performance is crap for a game in such ancient engine. Other Valve games play way better than this.

This kind of thing is why I completely avoid competitive multiplayer and play cooperative ones only with friends. Too much frustration for the fun you get.

Recently a old friend confessed to us in a reunion that he is a red handed cheater. His excuse is not even that he sucks (I know for sure he isn't bad), but because other people blatantly do it. So if he want to have the least amount of fun in a match, he has to do it too...

I abandoned CS a long time ago on the Source days, because of too many people cheating. And there are servers that didn't even allow voting to kick a player. So **ck that ***t, my time is better spent on single player games, where if I die, I know is because of me, not some low life cheater.

script of displaying CPU utilization with the ring LED's

Now someone finally did something useful with RGB LEDs on a PC!

Just a small nit pick: the CPU is a R1606G, not RG1606. For a moment I thought they changed it, but is just a typing error from their PR staff.

I really wish they do well, but I continue to think this CPU is under-powered for modern indie games. There is quad-core embedded CPUs that AMD can offer (the V-series), too bad they chose one of the cheapest ones. For the $200/300 they are asking for it, is very tempting to simply build one yourself with a better and upgradable AMD APU.

Quoting: GuestI love this game. I almost sold my house for it.^_^ But my parents decided it would be better for me to buy this game with cold cash!Of course I'm joking:) But I as I said I love this game because it reminds me of top gear, which was published in snes long ago.Oh those were the days. We played top gear with my friend many hours every day. We were totally fascinated by this game at that time. That's why I like Horizon Chase Turbo game cause I'm still a fan of Top Gear:)

Is not a coincidence it reminds you of Top Gear, since it was made as a homage for it. Even the original composer made a couple of the original music remixed for it.

Quoting: Patola

Quoting: GuestThe problem with this "game" is there is no goal. So nothing to do really.

The game is amazing, which does not mean it is perfect, far from it. I until resent the developer's decision to not make the trucks get damaged, dirty or even deliver smoke to not "damage" the public image of the licensed truck brands.

It may be that they didn't have a choice on that. All it takes is only one truck manufacturer to say "here is your license, but make our trucks look good, or else", for them to avoid letting the truck receive damage or dirt. It used be exist a mod to create damage, but it ceased do be developed. AFAIK.

And they are not alone on that. Other games like Gran Turismo also did not show damage on cars because some manufacturers like Ferrari didn't allow it.

PS: E ae Patola, lembro de vc dos tempos do BR-Linux.
