First Post!
by Maarten Goldstein, May 03, 2002 5:52am PDTSo just a few weeks before E3 we actually managed to find a hotel closer to E3. Ok we actually means DieharD. Those Canadian people are quite resourceful! It's not only closer, but actually cheaper too. Let's hope they didn't overbook. That Klez virus is mighty annoying. Getting a lot of them these days.Worst part is each of them is trying to open so you always have to hit cancel before you can delete them. And you never really know beforehand if it's going to be a virus email. As I said, annoying. Hey it's Friday..which means Spider-Man opened in the U.S. It doesn't open here until late June for some reason. That's too bad, as I really want to see it.

Anyone know what the deal is with Armor Medium,Light,Heavy? Is there some sort of penalty associated with heavier armors? Otherwise why would anyone pick light as a Major skill instead of heavy?

Seems really big, I can tell already just from a bit of playing. The graphics are purdy, although slow on my system even at 800x600 (gf2 ultra, p3 800, 512mb, win2k). I had to turn down the sound quality too since it was pretty slow outside.
I never played the previous games in the series, so I'm pretty new at this so far. Started out with an assassin and am just fooling around right now by sneaking into homes, killing anyone there, and selling their stuff to the local merchant.
A few things I don't like though (but maybe I just don't know what I'm doing). The inventory mode isn't to my liking, well not everything. I do like how it sorts stuff based on type (weapon,misc,etc.), but don't like the descriptions of stuff that comes with it. I was hoping for something like Baldurs Gate where you can right click on the item and get the info. Same with when buying stuff to, I don't know much about the item.
I also have no clue what to do with half the items I find, these plants and stuff. Is there a way I can become better at identifying them? Or do some actually have a purpose?
don't like the weapon system that much either, but maybe I just don't know how to use it well yet. I want to be able to have multiple weapons queued for use, although I guess there are hotkeys, maybe I should read up on those.
Also, anyone have suggestions on how to play an assassin? I just selected the basic assassin package and let it choose everything for me, but I'm not far in the game yet so I don't mind restarting if there is something I should have done.
Hmm, that's all I can think of right now. So far it seems like a pretty good game, but I'll have to give it some more time before I make up my mind.

Better yet, everything that you use with them? (Printers, monitors, software, scanners, cameras...)
My little hobby is pushing the $10,000 mark (if you include software).
WTF am I thinking? This is just getting ridiculous. And now I'm planning on a new video card? Shoot me....please.

Put nailpolish on the "platter" of a 3 1/2' floppy, put it in the floppy drive, and boot the computer up with the disk fully inserted, and the rotation of the "needle" on the nailpolish will cause it to screw up the computer somehow.
Is this true? I'm just.......curious :)
