I had a failing disc problem with far cry 2 some time ago, and after I got it on the HD it just needs to detect the CD in order to play.

No. I was going to but, appaantly by the time I got around to it, the disc was too badly damaged to work.

As for Halo Wars, I'd say it was similar to Starship Troopers.

Starship Troopers indeed.

Also, with too badly damaged, do you mean that when trying to install to the HD it like stops at 20 percent insallation? Or it just doesn't read it at all?

Cause in the first case, you just gotta keep trying. My copy of far cry 2 always was getting stuck around 20 percent, but I kept trying and after like, 30 attempts, it finally installed...(note the disc alone would get stuck in the loading screens of the game, before i had it installed).

I've had about 4-5 attempts, some on another 360, and it always stops at 10%.

I was planing on:

A. Renting a Copy and use that to install it.

B. Wait for th game to get cheaper and buy a new copy and install that.

C. Kill Mircosoft, Ensemble and Robot Entertainment.

At the moment I'm focusing on Plan A. But C is still being considered........... :twisted:

7 pages later and still no one bothered to answer my question...

Your question didn't make any sense to me.

I wasn't sure what you were getting at, so I didn't say anything. :oops:

I would say that they are....kinda like another faction that you cant play as but at the same time they act like zombies meaning they rush you and attack blindly while being rather frail. They have their own buildings, defenses, and counters like the bomber form, thrasher forms, and those damn swarm things. They dont really use any tactics besides storming you with troops and of course, trying to infect you. Their units are rather weak though so that helps when you have a couple dozen swarms at your base.

Uniqueness: Flood environment buildings are dangerous and usually contain infection forms. These include flood stalks which act like 3 carrier forms exploding when you shoot them, flood sacks, these are more common but they act like obstacles some times so it may be in your best interest to kill them. Also their buildings will regenerate over time unless you have some units to "supervise" them.

Flood spore clouds. I hate these things. They are basically a dark cloud of...spores that fly around a certain area for a small amount of time and can infect any infantry units that they catch.


Did that answer anything?

EDIT: Or was that even the right question?

hmmmm


played Halo Wars for a bit

could have spent ALOT less time on graphics

but the movies were so pretty....

and where complete shit voice actor wise

But they were PRETTY!

So it balances out.

Kinda sorta....

No... It's like eating really cool looking candy that tastes like scahog sperm.

Was it just me, or were the characters very unlikeable and I didn't feel anything for them.

A fellow fanfiction writer of mine claims the chinese voice actors are better.

And who might that be?

You wouldn't know her. She's on FF.net as "Imsi".

Ah.

I'm considering venturing on to FF.net.

But back on topic. I think even if you made all the characters little kittens, they still wouldn't be likeable.

I like to start random arguments on FF.net, even when I know I cant win

I would suggest it. The formatting capabilities are far superior to that of a forum, and you get a wider range of reviews. However, if you want a lot of reviews, you need an interesting story (I leave that up to you) and a long story. Isolation, for example, is 227 pages in Microsoft word (about as long as Fall of Reach) and is divided into 21 chapters. I am about 4/5s of the way through.

The forum you requested does not exist =(

What was it about?

Some kid that you apparently PM'd about not having skill wrote a very poor letter directly addressing you in which he tried to say that his rush was unbeatable, your a noob, and he would be decimating blah blah blah...while you built a rainbow army of "spam units" and at one point he compared something to that of Sim City but by that point I stopped reading.

I love it when 8 year olds cry over the internet

I was actually waiting for you to tear him apart but it looks like it got deleated.

Something tells me the author was probably MCIce.
Oh well, too bad I didn't get the chance to read it.

No, but i guess that means you were really busy with the PMs.
I posted on it, tore into his arguments. Which is funny, cause i seem to be the only person on that forum capable of arguing with you.
