If you want i can come along as well, i havent completed corellia yet but i am lvl 50.

I apologize profusely, Odioshi. I had to deal with some issues with my mom :blink: and wasn't able to log into the game when you specified. Can we set up another try at this? I would like to eventually open this companion up for all my toons and the only way to do that is to go after him with 1 toon! :laugh: I'll keep an eye on this thread and wait for your answer. :)

Is there a way to chat with folks on Steam in-game? The thing I hate most about Sims 3 is that I don't have anyone to talk with, and having someone to talk with is one of the main reasons I play games.

I just joined in order to snag Sims 3 super-cheap on a holiday sale. (That's why I've been out of STO the past couple of days, trying to figure out ways around the bugs....)

I actually think that this is my favourite episode of Doctor Who.

But then again, David Tennant was my second least favourite doctor, right behind Colin Baker.

I'm sorry to say that I was not that into this special. I loved most of the character moments, but the episode as a whole didn't seem to hang together particularly well. It felt like a series of neat trailers strung together without a payoff.

Part of it was that the "threat" wasn't particularly scary or convincing. I definitely can't buy that a little 8-year-old loner was such pure evil that he would turn everyone on the planet into ice people, or create a race of ice people that would eat them all, or whatever his plan was supposed to be. And of course it didn't help that the Doctor himself spent the whole episode telling everybody that the snowmen were no particular threat.

I also feel like this script was written for the wrong Doctor. Eccleston could brood hard enough to melt Clara's peppy little face, but Smith just seems kind of listless and mopey and it even started to irritate me after a while. Don't get me wrong: I LOVE MATT SMITH. He's my favorite modern Doctor. But he's at his best doing the rambunctious Don Quixote stuff, not this weird Batman act.

That said, all of the stuff with the side characters was excellent, and I'm immediately hooked by the mystery behind Oswin. My first thought was that she might be the Doctor's daughter, but regeneration doesn't make any sense here: she's got the same face, and her bodies end up in graves. Whatever she is, I don't think she's a Time Lord.

And Nick, the only games you should need a connection for are games that handle multiplayer through Steam, like Team Fortress 2. In addition to the "start offline" when you don't have a connection, you can pick "go offline" from the menu even with a connection.

I think the only exceptions are some cases pertaining to Steam Guard (e.g. the first time you log in from a new machine, maybe a periodic login thereafter?) and actually downloading stuff from their servers. I do think that specific publishers can set stricter standards for their games.

I also joined

If anyone still needs an invite to LoS/KoS please send me a message on here so we can arrange times when we can be on at the same time.

Please be aware however that I am in the GMT timezone.

Thanks

Sinner you clever fellow ;)

We do know that young Melodie Pond regenerated only once prior to meeting the Doctor so it can't be her. I'm very intrigued to see where this new twist will lead.

I dunno if any of u picked up on 2 things 1. the camera began and zoomed in on the name of the pub Clara was working "The Rose & Crown" and 2 the girl Clara was with at the end in the cementary was Melody Pond pre River I ran that scene 4 times to be sure

That is a good point. River is always going on about how "clever" the Doctor is.

Ive JOINED!!! Yay! You know you love this stranger :P

USS bear is a nice coincidence lol

My toon Jesien needs an invite if possible, just reactivated my account and saw we are on harbringer now, was in the guild on jek jek tar. not sure who to contact in game because i never see anyone with the KoS guild tag.

I joined the Steam group and it seems it no longer shows how much time members have spent in certain games, which is a good thing because then you'd see the obscene amounts of time I've spent with certain games.

This just a wild theory I have, but seeing as how his "wife" River wasn't shown and the fact that Clara has died *at least* twice centuries apart makes me wonder if they're gonna go that route and just claim it's River regenerated.

I thought about that too as their personalities are similar but River gave up her ability to regenerate to save The Doctor's life in the "Let's Kill Hitler" episode. I know River is a bit old for the current Doctor but I love how the actress plays her and hope they don't recast her. :unsure:

Have you tried it since getting back online? I did put Steam into offline mode while online and then back into online mode. Then I turned off the network adapter and tried it. Maybe that had something to do with it.

That's really odd! I tried over and over to connect to mine and it wouldn't let me. :(

I was curious about the offline thing. So, I turned off my network adapter (to simulate a lose of connection to the Internet) When I started Steam, it gave me this message:



I was able to access my games in offline mode with no apparent issues. From my limited research, you have to have all files uptodate in order to do it though.

I have to say that it's become an addiction for me too. I've almost turned into a junkie looking for decent games to play that are on sale. :lol:
