Mr_Mavvy: I have everyone's email so you don't need to put it in the comments. Id recommend deleting your comment to protect your email from SPAM bots that crawl the web.

Oh and sent :)

The site runs very smoothly but if I had to be critical, I'd say that it needs some more functionality to compete with others :) LOVE <3

jdodson Admin Post Author wrote on 09/16/2012 at 11:27pm

What would you add?

Mr_Mavvy wrote on 09/16/2012 at 11:35pm

I'd maybe add some sort of chat interface and some more navigation buttons around the site to get around more effectively myself. <3

I want to say that had i not entered TonyJapMayo I really liked yours. Anything done in japanese is pretty impressive to me. I've tried a few times to learn it and it takes a lot of effort.

Balki wrote on 09/15/2012 at 08:28pm

Well, it isn't a haiku, but whatever! Congrats Jacob.

jdodson Admin wrote on 09/15/2012 at 08:40pm

Thanks to everyone that entered! Fantastic effort!

Axel_Mller wrote on 09/15/2012 at 09:53pm

I want to apologize for my behavior once again. But I also want to thank Jacob for being nice to me despite my before-mentioned behavior. Congratulations. :(

Jacob_Richardson wrote on 09/15/2012 at 10:34pm

I just woke up got about a 2hour nap. Just wanted to say thanks for that. Wasn't a big deal though.

Um... duh... Why dont they make a DotA mode for Diablo3?

Um... duh...

Why don't they make a DotA mode for Diablo3? It would take about 2 seconds of coding, and about 3 months of balancing, but it could easily be done, and I'm sure it would be fun. Blizzard kind of invented DotA, I'm surprised they haven't done it yet.

The kickstarter for Planetary Annihilation ended yesterday, and it was a huge success: They raised over $2,200,000 with a goal of only $900,000 dollars. The best part is that they announced everything that they will do with the extra money. There are new planet types, a full orchestral score, a making of documentary...

My personal favorite is that they're adding a Galaxy Meta-Game where each match you play has some effect on a giant war going on in a galaxy. Their vision is having clans battle it out over territory using individual matched games. It looks very fun.

This is my first kickstarter anything, but I hope to be sucked in like this again. It's fun feeling like... Read All

In the celebration of the Cheerful Ghost Borderlands 2 Haiku

In the celebration of the Cheerful Ghost Borderlands 2 Haiku Contest finishing up tomorrow I decided to stuff a bunch of awesome Borderlands 2 news in a post for everyone.

If the Haiku contests wasn't enough chance for you to win awesome Borderlands 2 stuff, checkout the Gearbox "Weapon of Choice" contest. Check it out by the link below:

I'm really excited because of the PC news.

jdodson Admin Post Author wrote on 09/14/2012 at 11:45pm

I heard the graphics are incredible on the PC. What other news have you heard?

Jacob_Richardson wrote on 09/15/2012 at 08:25am

Well over time they've released a lot of PC info. First we know that PC will have PhysX. That allows for more particle effects and things like clothing tearing.

Very early on they listed a number of enhanced features that should be a testament as to what should be in ALL PC releases.

FOV slider
100% mouse usable menus/mouse wheel scrolling
Remappable keybindings for keyboard/mouse
PC-specific UI
Native multiplayer matchmaking
Push to talk
Logitech keyboard support
LAN support (including offline mode)
Control pad support
Integrated V-sync option
Support for higher resolutions
Mouse smoothing options (can be disabled completely)
Cloud save support
Achievement support
Friends list support
No port forwarding required

Deleted Comment because I'm dumb. Just saw the post jdodson made farther down that did indeed confirm that they had officially announced the mechromancer release date. Must have simply forgotten since I did already read that post.

jdodson Admin Post Author wrote on 09/15/2012 at 02:17pm

Yep, yep. The PC version looks awesome. Not many publishers make the PC version that much better, so good on Gearbox!
