The partially-abandoned ruin of the Line will be the setting of a major part of 2032's Call Of Duty episode.

a long corridor shaped map is more suited to the Rush mode of the Battlefield series imo

though I would also take a Warzone map where instead of a circle you just try to outrun a moving wall of fire starting from one end of THE LINE

I simply use GIMP. I dont know why it gets so much hate. It has all the same tools. Maybe because the default canvas is small and several windows. You can set up a more Photoshop style workflow if you want and save it as the default.
I hate GIMP because the keyboard shortcuts are all wrong.

it and alpha protocol are two games with great stories that I think got really overshadowed because people thought they were basic ooh rah shooting people in a desert games - the latter only had that as its opening segment before the story really happens but first impressions matter

The mechanics in Alpha Protocol are janky as gently caress, but the story and dialogue are loving great.

EDIT: I played through that game three times in a row. So loving good.

I never get the last word, and it makes me very sad.
Alpha Protocol was pulled from steam a while ago, if you don't already have it on steam it's :filez: time.

Alpha Protocol is utterly fantastic and utterly broken, look up a gameplay guide before you start because the frustrating gameplay parts will definitely distract from the insanely good writing and interactivity.

the only gameplay guide anyone needs for alpha protocol is "pistols with chain shot"

so they're using UHF tags which sadly means you cant reprogram them with your phone, but i wouldnt be shocked if you could make them give you unlimited drinks
sure looks like it. depending on how much they bothered to secure sector 00 in the memory, it shouldn't be too hard to break. i'll bet you could find a way to pass an invalid value to the dispenser and just unlock unlimited refills for everyone.

Also it will be hacked and used to cause nipslips within the first week if it isn't 100% vapor
