Ah, yeah that can happen. Most of the time though the engine just hitches for a couple of seconds and returns to normal, with the proper GUI.

Yeah, that's what it does, sorta. The game does hitch up like it's trying to reload. But then it just crashes instead of resuming the game.

Egypt made me go :woot: .

That looks amazing!

That may actually pull me back into game.

That and the fact I'm getting a new computer!

If they don't include the multi-core support with this update your new computer will probably run the game as bad as the old.

As for the new maps..eh, am i the only one who thinks egypt looks kinda ugly? Hopefully it plays better than it looks.

Note: Bonk! contains several hundred times the daily recommended allowance of sugar. After the beneficial effects of the radiation wear off, drinkers have reported experiencing feelings of lethargy that can last several seconds. Reading this sentence absolves Bonk! of any liability for killing sprees inspired by or deaths resulting from the ingestion of Bonk! Enjoy Bonk! responsibly? Or by the case!

Lol'd.

Updates to the Orange Box Engine have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The specific changes include:

Orange Box Engine

Fixed stats and achievements not working in Half-Life 2: Episode Two and Portal

Fixed incompatibilities with MODs

seems like a rather big-ish update for only those two..

Same. Looks too much like Dust at first glance.

Wow he is good.
Played against this dude yesterday and the team he was with was imba (all pro players, t'was a pug). He just ran through our team..

Holy crap, he's amazing with the Demoman. :omg:

Wish I could play like that :| .

Anyway, I would really like to play against Neowin members after seeing so many people commenting on it. As of right now, I don't really care about my slow connection or that fact I can't really enjoy playing it on the PX at the moment, I just felt like getting into the action, so to speak.

My STEAM ID is... wait for it... Scirwode :laugh: .

Good to see he doesn't just sit there and camp. (Y)

Some things never change though eh?

I lol'd. :)

Don't know if anyone has mentioned the professional known as Reptile, I might have missed it, but if you haven't seen his movie then watch it now :o He has got to be one of the worlds best Soldiers, wish I played for Pandemic. :(

He may constantly be with a medic and have quite a few crits here and there, but you can't deny his aim or reflexes. I also hear a guy known as Frozenshift is an insanely good Soldier but I've never seen him play.

Steam: Nervex - Add me :D

Try and watch Fragga's videos, some of his airshots are just amazing (That doesn't mean he's one of the best soldiers, its just cool to see), there are quite a few soldiers better than reptile now it would seem. I personally think crits in 6v6 kind of suck, don't really want luck in competitive games.

Of course these guys aren't going to be able to pull off double and triple airshots consistantly though ;) This guy (appe) is one of the best soldiers in 6v6 leagues:

Just finished watching a video of Fragga's airshots, I have to admit, some of them are amazing, but I dont think his accuracy is as consistent as Reptile's. I agree completely, I've played a few competitive games and I hate it when situations change almost instantly, all because of one crit, on say - a medic or a well placed SG.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.

    • Really? Use a better search engine https://www.google.com/search?...ourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
    • Seems like Neowin has transitioned into being simps for the white house. I can't find a review for the last UFC games that came out.
