Might actually download the PTR and check these changes out once they're available. Definitely sounds interesting. Season 2 was the best because it was short. Season 3 has gone on waaaay too long.

Late to the party of course, but I thought my 7950 would get its ass kicked by this game at 1440p and I've been pleasantly surprised that has not been the case. Seems playable at Very High settings, except for Grass (High). Did not touch Advanced Graphics at all though.

Traded in Cod Ghosts and Black Ops 1 at Best Buy and got AW for $35 (PS4 version). Definitely a better game than Ghosts. The lag is pretty bad right now and the matchmaking seems a little weird, but what else is new for a COD launch? The game is actually pretty fun otherwise; more than I can...

+1 to this...Jedi Outcast was excellent. The opening levels were a little repetitive IMO, but after that it's fantastic. With regards to HL2, it was the first game I ever downloaded on Steam back in 2004 and I've lost track of how many times I've played through it. So there's that. The HL2...

Are there even any m.2 drives with capacities greater than 128gb available in the 2242 size? If not, seems like you'd be pretty limited in what you could do with the slot in this board. Edit: I need to read better. The Plextor M6E 256gb is mentioned in the original post.

So far my monk is doing alright in T1...did have some trouble this one time when three packs of Mallet Lord champions spawned on top of each other very close to a rift zone entrance. I got crushed :(.

^ Impressive :cool:. I like the ventilated window.

I still like using the iPhone when I get the opportunity (most of my family has them still). It's just not quite the best fit for what I want to do with a mobile device, so I switched to a Galaxy Note 3 back in October.

Borderlands 2 + Skyrim.

Treyarch has done a much better job of supporting the competitive scene, but unfortunately that was all that BLOPS 2 had going for it. Online matches were a mess; the game only seemed to shine when it was played in a LAN setting. It's definitely a little puzzling that IW decided not to include...

Doom, and Tetris on the original Game Boy.

IMO they've done a pretty good job of refining the leveling "curve" with every major iteration of this game. Back in the closed beta it used to feel like my character would outlevel the content way too fast, and then all of a sudden I'd hit a wall and my progression would slow considerably...

Ah shit, my habit of tossing sticky bombs out of the car at my pursuers is probably what did it, then.

Generally speaking, I agree with you. People whine, it's a fact of life. I DO get annoyed though if I'm just chilling with my IRL buddies in-game in a closed-crew session and it splits us all into separate public lobbies when we vote free-mode after a job. This has happened more than once...

I've built 6 or 7 machines in the last year based on the Ivy Bridge Pentium G2020 (I guess the Haswell equivalent is now available). For HTPC/internet/office duties, it has way more than enough horsepower even without an additional GPU. Spend your money on a nice SSD instead of an i5.
