I just bought Supreme Commander 2. Thought it looked like an ok RTS. $60 later I get home and toss in the install disk and its just a steam installer. Nowhere on the packaging does it say ANYTHING about steam. 4 hours and 53 mins of downloading untill I can play. I started a torrent of a pirated copy and I could have that in an hour. Why am I the one who suffers when I pay for the game. Can't they think of something more efficient for security? This will kill PC gaming eventually.

Why didn't you just buy it on steam? ;)

But yeah... that sucks o.o

:(

*hug*

I hated the control interface for that game, though. How do you find it?

i take it because he didnt know it was a steam copy and he wanted the actual game on disc

I hate people who...

go over a reasonable speed limit.

like for example me driving to school is about 70 I do about 75, i get honked at for going faster, when i turn on to a state road which takes me the rest of the way the limit varies from 40 to 55. I do 5 over and people do stupid crap instead of slowing down.

LMFAO! Maybe a pit maneuver here and there...

@ Joker; yeah I'm just picking on REALLY slow drivers...

Edit: Only 2 hours and 52 mins now.... Sweet!

Pit maneuvers arent easy LOL

Subb
08-11-2010, 03:50 PM
and weaving in and out of cars at a high rate of speed too, will make all in for some car ramming road rage fun

Rocket launcher all the really slow drivers. Problem solved, but i feel bad for the clean up crew.

Subb
08-11-2010, 04:01 PM

Subb

QuietGrave- dont know where ur from but around here our highways dont have traffic lights.

In Cali, when you enter an onramp you need to pass through a stoplight. Plus I may have pause halfway through that post and started talking about something different. XD I do that a lot. sometimes it takes me like 5 tries to get a post that makes sense. Another thing that grinds my gears.

Lol I live in Cali and we don't have this up in the North State.

Muffincat
08-11-2010, 04:35 PM
They have some, in like, Oakland, but... yeah, they're pretty rare up there.

But there are some stop lights on highways here in Vermont o.o

Subb
08-11-2010, 04:40 PM
are we talkin stop lights or toll booths. Ive yet to see a stop light on a highway and ive done a fair amount of traveling

I think he means when you're getting in and out of the highway. It wouldn't make sense for highways to have traffic lights. Imagine the traffic there. It's not easy for a few hundred cars (in NYC at least) to get back from 0 to 65mph in a few minutes again.

Subb
08-11-2010, 04:49 PM
very true, thered be alot of pile ups thats for sure

Muffincat
08-11-2010, 04:50 PM
I think there may be some general confusion between highways and freeways? Or at least as how I understand them.

Subb
08-11-2010, 04:52 PM
yeah prolly muffin. but oh well its all good

NorCal is basically Washington, only Swartzineger-ie-er.

I'm no expert on Maps but I thought Cali's northern border was with Oregon?

You would be correct Linux, it is OR

Rachel
08-11-2010, 06:16 PM
LOL. NorCal is nothing like Oregon.

Only difference: Sales Tax, and it's 113 degrees here.

RaiDae
08-11-2010, 06:41 PM
Yeah. But i'm not a kid kid. I'm a young adult... ya know. I'm an adolescent. I have a little something called maturity (i know it doesn't show here... BUT IT EXISTS). I'm not a little box of puke that thinks somebodys body is a door and I don't purposely get under peoples feet and ARG. brats.

Also, people who drive past you and shout AAAWEJRHEHJHK out of the window and scare you have to death. ¬.¬

OZZY OSBOURNE!!! he really pisses me off. He's like your local derranged grandad.

olollolololololol

Im glad it wasnt me. Haha, joker, haha.

What I hate is how many people got into gaming with blockbuster titles then form solid opinions on what the best games in the world are based on their limited experience. Well, specifically some people I know in person through friends, and who dont think they should not even be required to play other games before they can declare their opinions on older games the most valid in the room.

If we all lived on a space shuttle heading towards a new planet I would blow them out the airlock and ensure they didnt reproduce on our new world.
