If you ever wanted an animated desktop wallpaper you can get Dreamscape from Humble bundle for $1.

Pretty cool. Definitely a good use for a 2nd (or 3rd, or 4th) monitor!

You could actually download some of those and set them as a wallpaper.

You guys should see about making a subtle SotP themed .dream file. I can't find any neat Halo ones.

I realized today that I literally have the job of Stanley from The Stanley Parable.

Is this the real life?

(fun, dont take to sirous pls)
Just a thought: What if Trumpf is a Ferengi in disguise?

  • He is orange.
  • He always trys to maximise his profit.
  • He follows some wierd rules.
  • He ignores the enviroment (just take a look at Ferenginar)
  • He is worried that some of his bodyparts are not big enough (i know, normally they are worried about their ears, but maybe the real ferengi are more worried about the size of their hands?).
    (pls someone photoshop him to look like a ferengi, i bet it would look hilarious)

Nice try, Hillary.

Don't you love staying up at night looking at awesome game merc you want but then realizing there is no plausible way of getting any of it because it is all hundreds of dollars and you have no way of making money, so you just fall into a confused state of hope that you may just be able to scrape up enough money to buy one or two things but at the same despair knowing that you will never be able to afford what you want...

I voted SoTP for MOTY, I did my part.
On an unrelated note, in Hearts of Iron IV, joining the Allies as Democratic Germany still allows you to invade Poland via the Focus Tree, not only will France be forced to watch, but they have to help too.

Well, it seems Gitlab has had a massive screwup and is currently trying to recover what they can from the smoldering ruins.

So don't be surprised when commits and updates for the internal repository don't work at the moment.

Must have been a few hectic hours at Gitlab. And 5 Backup methods failing on you...that's just harsh.

Lost my PSU for my Xbox One :frowning2: Anybody got an idea of where to get a replacement? Hoping to get on as soon as possible cause as it stands, Halo Wars 2 is just collecting dust...

P.S Shit, there a lot of emoticons...

fck the microsoft store, i paid 90 euros for the halo wars 2 ultimate edition, so i get halo wars 1 for pc too, but guess what, everytime i want to install it, it instead starts to downloading it again and their support is as useless as ever, because all they could say was "download it again". Yeah, because i didn't do this already.
Whatever you do, do not buy stuff from the crappy windows store, i gave them a chance and they f
cked it up.
I'm really pissed off right now.

Try this, might work better: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/52wdk6/guide_how_to_download_a_windows_store_game_and/

Thanks sloose, i will try it, was a little bit angry when i wrote that because i alredy try to install it for 4 days.
i don't know what they build together with their store, but it is 1 of the worst online stores that i have seen in years (gaming wise).
wish they would just have releasd it with steam, whay less bugg than the thing microsoft build.
thx for the help.

ps: atm still really pissed at microsoft.

After you redeem a code on the windows store, where do you download it? Because in the wake of me not being able to find my Xbox One PSU, I just went and used the Season Pass and Halo Wars 1 code to see if I could at least download them but, well, nothing happened...

as i understand it the play anywhere does only work if you buy it over the crappy windows store, if you by the xbox/pc version at a store you only get the xbox/pc version, if you want the other one ou need to also buy it (pretty asshole tactic of mircrosoft)

just wrote their support, because the think from sloose also did not work and guess what, they are fucking liars, because the "real" download , speak the real data will only unlocked today at 23:00 for germany for the download and what i downloaded till now was just "place holder data". and they fucking advertised that you can play 4 days earlier if you would buy the ultimate edidtion, but this was bullshit.
this was the last time i bought from the windows store.
