[quote]" the revenue from free-to-play games had overtaken revenue from premium games that earn revenue through traditional means in Apple's App Store "[/quote] And that's not a good thing I assure you. Free to play games always, always always go down in quality, PERIOD. I have been with several games that have gone FTP, and they have ALL suffered for it.

Reply to Latest Global Temperatures in Science & Tech Sins Forums

You do realize that CO2 is a poor insulator of heat right? in fact it's approximately 1000 times weaker at holding into heat then Water Vapor. That fact alone means CO2 can't be a greenhouse gas, or if it is then Water Vapor is 1000 times more dangerous AS a Greenhouse gas. Secondly, CO2 emissions increase as a effect of heat rise, this is known as "outgassing" Thirdly, The Carbon Cycle, look it up Fourthly, we humans cause about 1% of the CO2 on this p

I have a question, If 32bit will only allow 2GB per process, then why not add a second process? Would that be possible? or am I way off? You start Sins and it has Sins A and Sins B processes, keeping the high demand items in Sins A, and storing lesser used things in Sins B. -Æ

[quote who="Pbhead" reply="5" id="3184596"] Quoting AgentExeider, reply 2the reason why you can't have more then one of the same kind of pacts is because when you have the pact, you BOTH get the benefit of the pact. If you had the same pact with 2 or more people, you would get a bonus for every pact you would have, in your case 3 friends, YOU would have 3 PACT Bonuses from the same pact. The same could be said if you were playing with NPCs against your friends,
