    So, i have a difficult choice to make. Which do i buy?
    Love: (£0.67)

    http://store.steampowered.com/app/269270/?snr=1_7_7_weeklongdeals_150_1

    Contraption maker: (£0.74)

    http://store.steampowered.com/app/241240/?snr=1_7_7_weeklongdeals_150_2

    Love seems to appeal to me a bit more at the moment because from the very little that i have seen the soundtrack seems cool and the art style is neat too. But looking at the length of the lets play it can be completed in under 30 mins. But more content has been added since then and the developer is promising more to come. But it is a 30fps game :/
    Contraption maker seems cool but i get the feeling i will play with it once and never go back to it. But it does have many levels and workshop support so maybe not.

    EDIT: I got contraption maker, due to Love being 30fps. Might have to put money back on my steam account so i can get love later this week, especially with the release of tis-100.

    Im a man, but I happen to like men myself...Im what you call "gay"...something I have never seen brought up on here lol except with someone (i think DummiesMan) changed his profile pic to the rainbow theme once the US legalized Gay Marriage. (not saying DM is gay, but who knows lol) Other than that, there was one user I saw once or twice, her name was Melissa or something basic....but who knows if she was rly a girl or a very confused elementary student lol

    I am happily engaged, been with Tom for 7 years...have 2 cars together, a house, and a whole shit load of stress, and dog hair all over the house....plus laundry mountains here and there, oh and dont forget the rotten garbage that sits in the pale since neither of us are very domesticated lol

    Congrats on being engaged. :) I'd imagine that there are far more LGBT friendly people on this forum than it may seem. I'm bisexual, though I choose not to discuss my personal life and just try to keep on topic with anything related to BeamNG.

    I have wasted many hours (400+, non-steam) of my life playing War Thunder... Though it is indeed a very fun game, it will leave you frustrated in many regards. Gaijin employs a pay-to-win business strategy reminiscent of several AAA titles, and grinding is prevalent throughout the entire experience. Eventually, like it or not, you will buy premium in hopes of it improving your gameplay experience.

    Some might say there is a bit of a Russian bias- this is highly debatable. I favor the Russian faction over the others because I find them more enjoyable, but many would disagree. A close friend of mine would beg to differ- he uses Britain almost exclusively and refuses to believe that anything even approaches them in terms of quality.

    I don't have much experience with ground forces, but based on the few matches I've played I think I'd say that World of Tanks is a better game. That being said, tank-type games aren't really my thing (and are the spawn of Satan), so I can't speak much for either.

    Eventually the continuous effort will wear you down. I spent many days working for my first jet (the Soviet MiG-9), after which I didn't play the game for many months; I got tired of it. Grinding, as with any game, is about as enjoyable as ingesting a rotary telephone. I don't know if this has been addressed since the last time I played a match, but it is fairly impossible to achieve anything beyond tier three without paying money in some shape or form, be it premium or eagles (the game's premium currency). For an average player, getting from scratch to tier five would take the good part of a year, maybe more. With premium enabled on your account, this is reduced to something more akin to a month or two.

    War Thunder is not a game without its caveats- but one thing holds true: if you're anything like me, no amount of bad luck or frustration with Gaijin's corporate shittery will keep you crawling back a couple months later with a joystick in hand and a stupid dopey grin on your face.

    same, except in the gen discuss thread lol

    but I agree...and I love when people ask me personal questions about my physical relationship, when I "found out" I was gay, what my parents thought when I came out....do I ever ask a straight person anything like that? nope....cuz its not my business. people of the world, stop asking gays such personal questions. we are all the same. would you ask a fellow straight person what its like to put your wing-wam inside a soft-shell taco? stahp!! lol

    Congrats, and along with hondaprelude, I'm bi, although leaning a little more straight. I guess a 2.25 on the scale. Anyway, I'm not a person who seems to spill massive loads of personal information, except those god damn sandwiches. The laundry mountains can always wait.

    for sure...the laundry is such a problem, that when I actually decide to unearth a clump of dog-hair ridden naps of fabric from under the couch or bed, and actually stick it int hat washer machine thingy, and throw some soap in, I literally forget all about it, and go back in the black-hole dungeon of a basement and open the washer device and find that it reeks of dog hair and mold, so the laundry literally comes out looking worse than when it came in lol

    In other news, my tenant moved out 2 months ago (on good terms) so me and hubby are having our next door neighbors (they rent) move into our place. Now, when our old tenant lived at our house, it was his half, our half. Now, we are going to have an open-concept living arrangement where we all share the same common space (living room, dining room, kitchen) and we take our bedroom loft-turned-livingroom-turned-bedroom again, the mother gets our old bedroom, and Kyle (the kid, hes cool) will take the front bedroom. That being said, the mother LOVES to clean, is paying us exactly what we want (plus 3 months security) AND keeps the house clean. Also, Kyle loves cars (he has a 2004 BMW 530i project car, a 1990 300ZX project Daily Driver, some dirtbikes, mad tools, xbox 360 and ps4 which will combine nicely with my xbox one and (soon to be) gaming rig. His mom loves doing laundry too :p we might just get a new washer, the LG that we have was so expensive but its got that goddamned chronic moldy-doodoo smell.

    its been a crazy week for me lol

    haha 2.25 on the scale. id say im about a 10.1. I was a mack in high school, too...I had so many girlfriends. I suppose it was because I actually listen to girls when they talk (now Im getting over that as well)

    That moment when you run out of CPU fan headers.

    Oops, now I have this extra NZXT fan that's just begging to be used in a push/pull configuration on my CPU cooler.

    I am not gay nor am I bisexual, but I am fully supportive and accepting of those who are. As Dummiesman said, these recent admissions are interesting- definitely something you wouldn't see over on the more conservative RoR forums.

    I fixed my fan header problem by running the two intake fans off of the PSU.

    This thing is really, very loud now. #worth

    I've been playing Age of Empires for about 4 weeks now, I'm addicted.

    My favourite Civs are the Britons and the Turks.

    Because it means longbowmen or Jannisaries. and in my head I start to play a cartoony version of Empire: Total War and use napoleonic tactics of multiple units of missile troops (shielded by halberds) to steamroll my opponent. The problem is my early game is so poor I rarely am allowed to get to the stage I can amass an army like this. ... and after I've been allowed to sort of "brew" behind my walls you find you really don't wanna be taking on 6 entire batallions of jannissaries backed up by hand cannoneers and bombard cannons ... or my briton archers with halberds in front and onagers taking down your castles.

    Or as the tutons creating an impenetrable wall of slow moving human swagger.

    I played Age Of Empires 2 as a kid, made it to about the Iron Age before I forgot what I was doing. Good game.

    I reminisce to the one day a page talking about Jeepster becoming a mod (I think) became one guy's dick. Wasn't the best day.
