Apparently, you only get the time limit on the Crackdown demo once you have levelled up something twice. If you don't level up you don't get a timer. I can't verify that though as i'm still waiting for the thing to download.

Definitely picking up Crackdown.

It seems like it will be a great time killer, and I am already hooked on jumping from Rooftop to Rooftop.

Most of the time I spent I was collecting Agility Orbs, did two of the missions as well, and I had more than enough fun.

Probably will go preorder it sometime this week.

I'm not too sure about Crackdown to be honest. I've never been a great fan of sandbox games and I always get pretty bored of them in the end. I want to like Crackdown though so I can justify the price and Halo 3 beta :p I have it on preorder for now and decide once I play some more.

There is no doubt the game looks fantastic though and I can see the appeal it has, it just doesn't hold my attention very long :/

I liked the demo, except the time limit thing. They could have just limitted how much you could increase your strength. I didnt even try any of the missions, i just had fun jumping on stuff. I got 50 or so of those agility things, i could have gotten more but i didnt realize what they did until i got the 30 minute warning. I was able to jump 25ft and throw 1,000lb or something like that.

hmm i really like battlestations midway, but im getting stupid lag whenever i play the demo, i dont know if its cause its a demo, a crap host or a problem at my end,

im on 2mb, have my 360 connected to my pc and connection is bridged, then my computer wirelessly connected to router, the lag is stupid, like not 5 seconds, it seems like minutes! ill be there in my battleship and i always test to see if there is lag, by using the AA guns in the water, once i did it, and nothing happened for 5 minutes...

i just cant seem to have any more fun with this demo!!!

Ok,

I had a quick play with the demo. So far first impression is it looks similar to GRAW, but then you start to notice the tweaks and enhancements.

For example the Droid to scan areas, is now manually controlled when you scan, and you see an top down view of the map, and you move the droid around to scan what you want to see etc. Pretty cool.

All in all it looks very polished, and i like it so far.

Does anyone know if they will be using the Engine from the single player into the MP yet? the one thing i really didnt like was how SP was differnt than MP engine wise and you couldnt do all the same things

Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days.

      WordArt was cool. We now have color fonts as a substitute although Word only supports COLRv0 and COLRv1 (Fraud OS 11 only). The OpenType SVG color font format needs to be supported by Office. Adobe's apps support it

      By fintechfooty · Posted

      i backup my files, incl keepass to my proton drive using Syncback which i paid for (thanks Warwagon!). they have a free version but i can't remember what it does and doesn't do anymore. anyways, it's really, really simple and easy to use. i also periodically keep backups of my keepass onsite especially when i've changed or added a password that is important to me. if you don't wanna spend time on the syncthing setup, get syncback. haha i even got my dad to use it for his backups to usb and he doesn't even need my help!!! (thank god!)
