it looks okay but the water looks discolored and the random tower in the "island" by the prototype looks misplaced also the war factory looked better without you guys editing it.

The water has been filtered which explains the green grass in non sprinkler areas. As i said before, wait for the backstory. I'm debating the removing that tower.
I personally like the warfactory on the left as it balances the proto area more.

leave brittney alone

Nvidia and ati place reference designs in the hands of the companies for them to produce the cards as they would. Those two main companies design the cards themselves(ati nvidia). Some do however produce non reference cards with redesigned architecture and and perhaps a new style of cooler and in some rare instances and entirely new processor. Most new cards however are reference designs with reference processors and even coolers. Quality control lay in the hands of the producers of the pcb architecture as most cards fail from inefficient cooling or poorly laid out pcb designs.

For a lot of companies most cards come from Taiwan or China and most in the same factories. Some have even been known to buy and re sticker reference cards and ship them out under a new name. They are free to produce cards that are non-reference designs with a premium paid to ati or nvidia, thus the price mark up on those models.

Price is an arbitrary factor to me in purchasing an item, as price is controlled mainly by marketing and not production cost. Most cards, if you think about it, can be produced for roughly the same amount. If i can get a better performing card for a cheaper price, then I'm going to do it especially when I usually buy from a company with a good warranty that produces both Nvidia and Ati cards. (xfx) I went from a 4870 to a 260 because I could get better performance with the current drivers and the overclocking ability was higher for roughly the same price and would have gone in the opposite direction had the shoe been on the other foot.

Couldn't we just change the ams and stl server and leave the practice server the same. In case people want to play around.

thanks for all the support guys.

rob, we already took care of that. Sprinkler systems are in effect. As this map is based post crysis wars mesa.
Since the alien technology based there can effectively be mined indefinitely researchers decided a more permanent installation was appropriate.

edit:

I'd just like to add that you can consider this map still in development as I currently have the .cry making my modifications. After my additions this round we will produce another test map that can be used on the server. If the powers at be deem it possible to do so.

great news good luck on the switch.

i think nvidia cards have better software. so they have less problems, but (excluding the newest nvidia cards) ati has a decent lead on power. but without good drivers, for certain games, could lead to a problem.

I would say they have better driver support, i agree. Hardly worth the premium on similar performing cards though.
Advice: Don't look at brands, looks at tests and reviews from legit sources and form your own opinions.

i am all for this, i think 5v5 would be more acceptable, but id be fine with 8v8 or even more

I agree.
and how does tioga get a vote?

Quote from "NecessaryEvil @ Sat Apr 03

Putting OSF in your name is not what makes you a part of the community (especially when I can't find any indication that he was granted approval to put OSF in his name in the first place).

I meant i thought he was because he has had osf in his name longer than i have... Not saying he is or isnt.

I'm tioga and i make comments but dont add anything to the conversation.

Moving along...

Hardly played with you.

You are now bugging me constantly to vote.

You are poking me in game too much to vote. I asked you to stop please.

You just poked me again to vote.

So Ok, here's a vote..........NO.

I find that disappointing and since it comes from felix you must have been pretty annoying. He's a big softy.

I don't think applicants should be able to ask for votes.

tioga just has problems.
