Re: Half Life Alyx
There is now an official mod for playing Alyx without VR. I would strongly suggest not playing the game like that. It really isn't worth it. The entire design of Alyx's gameplay is centered on the idea of it being in VR, so most of the game will not translate to a fun experience in 2D. The AI is dumber to account for the difficulty of combat in VR, and the game pace is quite slow because VR is largely about exploring your environment as you play. Much of Alyx's gameplay is you rummaging around in cabbinets, trash bins, and shelves looking for resources. In VR, this is fun because you're using physics to do it. Out of VR it's gotta be the dumbest feeling ever.
If you really want to experience it and have no plans on ever getting VR, you'd be better off by watching a gameplay video on YouTube.

Re: Pandemic Playtime: Boardgames evening
FYI, if you don’t have an account on BGA, I would try and make one earlier in the day vs waiting til game time; their servers seem to get busier then and we had one person not be able to play with us on a previous week. (ESP @Massalinie)

Re: TF2 source code leaked
Yeah this is pretty serious. A lot of devs in my company are talking about it today, some of them even former Valve devs (one of our devs found his very own source code in the leak).
Right now, I am thinking we lock down our server to the public, and make it whitelist only until we hear otherwise from GameServers.
Re: Pandemic Playtime: The Icrontic Grand Prix
I use TC and ABS as crutches for not having the real feel of being in the car. Though the "Factory TC only" option feels pretty good and will let some slippage go, which is nice. Just keeps things from getting redic out of hand when there's not real feedback.
Let's Wine about lockdown.
So, to deal with being stuck inside I have begun expanding my pallet. Found a decent wine, Back Home Again Red Wine. Very light as red goes, sweet but not oppressively so, and under twenty bucks. Overall would recommend. Anyway go go gadget wine thread.
Re: Pandemic Playtime: The Icrontic Grand Prix
The server is up and running. You can search for it in the in-game server browser by looking for
Pandemic Playtime: Grand Prix
The password for the server is
icrontic
All lower case.
Over the next few days feel free to hop on and hoon about the tracks.
