Well ok this guy's probably pissed too: http://blogs.orange.co.uk/photos/uncategorized/2007/09/28/salmond_27sep07_pa_300_2.jpg Judging by this photo I think he'll stick with Shock Force anyway. But Alex Hammond was thinking about diversifying interests: http://www.ave-it.net/alex_hammond.htm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I might be able to swing a preview in Liverpool. I have a noble friend that was looking at a phd around warrior traits in societies. I think he was saying higher % up north. Plus petrol's even more expensive down south. Disclaimer- had a mate who ran UK wide business and in the end the Liverpool area was the only zone he barred standard 30 day business credit to. So North west excluding a zone that was alledged as "theiving scouse gypsy land." And I'm also of Gypsy heritage. Don't bring your friend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackcat Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 George MC and Other Means, A preview in Scotland or Liverpool? Well.... I suppose needs must when the Devil drives.

Kilgore Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 had a mate who ran UK wide business and in the end the Liverpool area was the only zone he barred standard 30 day business credit to. So North west excluding a zone that was alledged as "theiving scouse gypsy land." Thankfully, i don't live anywhere near scouseland. @ Para and Vincere...ain't irony a bitch!

Whitby aint too far away too. What version of the game would it be? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsonm Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 What version of the game would it be? Probably the Beta that’s current at the time of the presentation (and none of us know what that is because surprising with products being developed new Betas come out on a regular basis). Its hasn’t come out yet so there aren’t different versions. Or do you mean something else? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsonm Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 What about an RDP or GoToMyPC session to another beta testers console to view and or possibly have a play ? Disabled clipboard Enable Sound Half decent net connection = preview in the UK .... an possibly from the comfort of our own workstations I had a look at this. GoToMyPC costs money US$19.99 a month for a user and it goes up from there (presumably more than a person would want to connect)? TeamViewer is “free” but its one to one only. Neither gets you around the current 11 hour time difference between the UK and here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark_t Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Ok Para+1 so far. I hope to have the game setup on a large screen HD TV for the demo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraemeA Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I would be interested in a preview in Liverpool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackcat Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 So thu sfar we have an offer of a preview in Whitby (13th century abbey, old cobbled streets, Captain Cook, Jet jewellery, inspiration for Dracula and kippers), The Highlands of Scotland (majestic Scenery, superb ingridients - if not awlays good cooking, history so romantic one needs to hold ones' breath and malt whisky) or Liverpool (home of the Beatles and erm.... well, they might not nick the wheels off your car). Tricky decision. In practical terms for me its all one (from the South Coast its a three day trip whichever site is chosen), so please could we have a decision, chaps, and a date. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll have a look but if I need to reconfigure my router with port forwarding or in general end up having to change everything to suit some 15 trial application (the tail wagging the dog scenario) I wont be doing it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to knock this nonsense on the head now before some bloody fool who's had a humour bypass drops by. So feel free to have the last words.
