Got access to the Alpha & Beta. I just can't commit to this game until their is a community behind it like ET. Let's be honest you can replicate ET gameplay but it never feels the same as actual ET. At least my impressions. I loved the "this generation" updates graphically and FOV/Movement, but Dirty Bomb just felt like a shell. I didn't watch all 50+ minutes of the review a good portion of it though, he gives it a fair judgment. Honestly the comical nature of ET and community is what make the game good, for some reason maybe a nostalgia prejudice or just lack of appeal to newer-gen games I don't think it's gonna work. I hope I'm wrong though. I hope Dirty Bomb gets ET community and excels what we have now, but sadly I don't think that's possible. Thanks for the link to an actually decent review though.

So correct me if I'm wrong, if I have associated a picture to be thumbnail for a certain file on my mac but for some reason wasn't displaying correctly this will fix it? That is awesome if so, because I've been having this problem. I'm gonna try it out and let you know.

Happy B-Day

I can't believe I just watched that whole thing. I was mesmerized.

Thank you guys so much! After getting held back late at work on my birthday this made me happy to see!

I like to keep things classy. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/cjdawdj/snowhite_zpsfe9c2853.jpg On second thought better just link it.

I might be one of the few interested in this, and I think it has a lot to do with that my music choice could be defined as "hipster" but in my opinion I just like good music. This performance is probably one of the best things I've seen in years upon years, the guy is an absolute average-good guitar player but what puts him above and beyond is he is an amazing song-writer/singer. But really I how I found him is _Another Day / Another Time: Celebrating the Music of "Inside Llewyn Davis"_ if you haven't seen that documentary/concert special I highly highly highly recommend it. Personally I've been fortunate with my short time in this world I've got to see lots of great artists in person because of my father being a general manager of multiple radio stations. I've seen a litany of artists, that you couldn't care less about after I see all the great artists you more fortunate people have seen. But this forum post is to enlighten my own musical knowledge, I've recently rediscovered my love of folk music. If you could post more a only 23 year old wouldn't know. I would be so appreciative, I know we have some more experienced members here that I would love input from.

I don't understand how they can see 2.5billion as a profitable acquisition, that's a ludicrous amount of money for a game that has seen it's foreseeable time in the sun, and the likelihood that they as a gaming studio will strike minecraft gold again? Astronomical. Mind-numbing. Whatever.

Since apparently no one else is going to post a way to play, I will. Currently play a Macbook Pro running Mavericks. Annoying as shit that they got rid of PowerPC app compatibility but who cares you probably don't even know wtf I'm talking bout. Anyways two solutions, I will tell you both and give you links. 1. Bootcamp your Mac OSX computer and partition a Windows OS on your HD -Pretty much exactly what I said, lrn2google. You will need a copy of whatever version you want of windows and a little bit of above basic computer knowledge. 2. Run ETLegacy -Probably easiest solution: http://etlegacy.com/ I will assume you can ready install instructions on their website, I know I + DingDongWang can confirm it works on Mac OSX PS. My suggestion is bootcamp, frankly having the ability to switch back and forth between OS' makes me very happy, I can run literally any program this way. Also Windows OS is pretty awesome.

All I have to say is, "heists coming soon." Still waiting... F**k me once Rockstar--fine, f**k me twice with no standalone DLC a year later--whatever, try to f*** me thrice with an updated "nex-gen," version of the same game I already played--No.

Haha, don't get confused I might be the only dumb noob who uses a controller. I don't agree with statements that one is better than the other in generalizations, because the best Halo 2/Halo 3 player would absolutely put a highly accurate PC gamer to shame on said game. While ET was created for PC(and PC players will dominate), and has been a keyboard and mouse game since day one, that doesn't mean you can't use a controller and be good to okay. A LOT OF PEOPLE joke about using a controller on ET, I think maybe less than 2% use a controller. I do because at first it was the best way to do it with the laptop--without a plug-in mouse. Some people still don't believe me when I say to them that I do, but that's because they suck and I'm terrible. (Marginally better ) But I use a controller and I am better than 50% of people. Now huge drawbacks are, aiming at long range is almost impossible. Sometimes switching to correct gun/function isn't exactly great. BUT there are great positives too, I can jump and aim better than PC players, I can aim better at CQB, but I can't vsay as well =/ I have one of the highest accuracies on J2 server's generally/headshots. TL;DR Controller is good if you are born and bred and willing to accept downfalls, but keyboard mouse is a equal if not always dominant better configuration. PS This is only fair if the one ET controller player get's a say.
