  1. .... You clearly have no idea how powerful the default revolver is. I do, but I'm not complaining about its power - "it doesn't spread in stupid directions" - in that regard, the ambassador is a lot better because it actually shoots where you aim instead of, you know, hitting one shot out of 3 even though I'm aiming at them. With no spread, there's no reason not to use the revolver. But with the spread in pubs, the ambassador feels a lot more solid and predictable. And yeah, demo takes quite a lot of brain to make up for missing pipes. Getting good at demo is advisable because the damage output is incredible and one good demo can be a massive factor in a push or defending a cap.
  2. Demoman is hard. Not even joking. Can't for the life of me get the hang of where pipes go - I can only seem to hit them at close or extremely long range. Loch-n-Load is a lot easier to aim, but I always feel really cheap when I use it. Actually, I feel cheap when I play any explosive-based class. I would like to actually be passable at soldier or demoman, but I get disheartened when I bottom frag and play scout the next game. Ambossador spy is simply the best class to play in public servers. It's so much better than the normal revolver simply because it doesn't spread in stupid directions if you time it properly. You've got the headshot ability to defend yourself against scouts, backstabs to take out people who are unobservant and cloaking to grief snipers with. What more could you ever want? :3
  3. I like to mellow out and take it easy. I'm not one to seek any kind of conflict; much prefer to keep out of it and carry on. Quite the opposite of how I used to be a few years ago. I've seen enough "serious" threads deteriorate into needless drama to know that I should steer well clear of them.
  4. Entirely up to you. There's no obligation to tell people about your sexuality.

    I love napping during storms.

  7. Only other people though. Not you. Your music is good. It's a well-known fact that I listen to the worst music here.
  8. Demos make scout headshots look really crazy. Ingame I hit the model but since recording doesn't take lag into account, it looks like I shot thin air. Yep. Frontier is a lot of fun but seriously, every time. A map that needs to be put into rotations is pl_boundary - played it on my friend's server and it was a lot of fun. Quite big with a lot of tight areas so it might not be very fun with anything over 20 players, but I thought it was pretty cool.

  10. i7 for gaming. Laffo. AMD is definitely not a no-no. Phenom II 945/955s are beastly processors if you're looking for price/performance. 6870 is also a top-notch GPU for the money. Faster than a 5850 which is more than good enough for almost anyone. i7 is a workstation processor. i5 is way more than good enough for gaming, not even kidding. I have a 760 (1156) and it destroys almost everything out there right now. I think an i7 would be a waste of money that could be used on faster RAM, GPU, so on. Also, you really do not need 8GB of RAM unless you're video editing and playing Crysis at the same time. Seriously. I have 4GB and I've not seen it come close to maxing out. 4GB of fast RAM is far more than good enough for playing games. Just a word of warning that Sandy Bridge motherboards are really not that great from what I've been hearing about them so keep that in mind if you're going 1155. BF3 recommended (based on its engine): Recommended System Requirements Processor: Quadcore Processor Memory: 4 GB Hard Drive: 15 GB for Digital Version, 10 GB for Disc Version Video Memory: 512 MB Sound Card: DirectX Compatible DirectX: 11 Keyboard and Mouse DVD Rom Drive Good components which fulfil these criteria will be more than enough. It's preferable to get a 1GB graphics card so you have more space for high-resolution textures but it's hard to find an enthusiast GPU without 1GB of memory these days. 4GB of 1333/1600MHz RAM will be fine, i5 2500k will be fine. It might even be overkill depending on this guy's screen resolution... But yeah, the "top-end" components definitely don't give you the best price/performance at all. I'm sorry for sounding like an [wagon] but I can't stand it when I see $1500 "gaming" builds when a gaming PC should cost nowhere near that much. You could probably get something for $700-$900 which will destroy BF3 and I'm willing to give you a hand doing so, unless you're set on getting what's been posted. I don't really think it's necessary but it's your call, dude. Obviously a build like that will be nothing short of exceptional but then you'd need to get a suitably high-resolution monitor to really push your hardware enough to get your money's worth out of it. No use spending $1500 on a nuclear reactor and playing on your 10 year old 15" CRT.
  11. I think we should narrow it down a bit more to 10 or 15. I simply can't think of 25 must-listens and most of my last list was pulled at random because there simply wasn't anything beyond the first 10 that I could call as must-listen.
  12. The issue I had with the $100 hat is that it's a symbol of vanity. Anyway traded my antlers for a stash the other day. Pretty cool.

  14. Down with the man. F*** the police.
  15. Yeah. I find the top one really hard to read. Supposedly it's an improvement in font rendering but it still doesn't have anything on GNU/Linux and OSX font rendering. It's a new technology for Windows though, so we'll probably see various improvements in the future.
  16. I still stand by my statement: people on this forum who hate on [cabbage] like this listen to music which is much higher on the overall scale of offensiveness than some thirteen year old lawyer's daughter making pop tunes.
  17. Top: Acceleration enabled Botton: Acceleration disabled Pretty marked difference for me. The weird thing is it's not as horrible as I remember it being, but it still feels out of focus.
  18. Your display(s) might handle it better than my £90 TN panel. For me the fonts were overhinted and red-tinged, not to mention blurry. Grabbing comparison screenshots now though.
  19. Depends entirely on your resolution. <1680x1050 - more CPU, less GPU >1680x1050 - more CPU AND more GPU For example I play at 1440x900 and have an i5 760 and HD6870. In theory this is good all the way up to 1920x1200 but I would switch out for a 6950 if I was playing at that resolution since the extra power will be utilised properly.
  20. It's not a bad move by any means. Granted the $100 hat is going to be another base breaker, but all proceeds are going straight to the Japanese Red Cross. Think about it: Valve cut away some of their own time just to do this. Yeah, just kind of rubs me the wrong way a little. I was like "uh, really", you know. It's cool that they are doing something anyway.
  21. My favourite part was when the random black dude showed up and started rapping.
  22. Really if you could get some solid evidence that he is picked on the teachers will listen. Record that [cabbage] or something.
  23. It has an Intel GMA. I have no idea what the requirements for RuneScape's medium detail are but it is probably choking.
