[QUOTE=Benlecyborg;29254747]Go play with your DeLorean[/QUOTE] It got destroyed by my train. :saddowns:
[QUOTE=Inspector Jones;29254730]y I keep hoping something unexpected occurs. I guess that's my/our fault[/QUOTE] It's not really. Valve over-hyped this and with their reputation you expect more of them. Everyone is hoping for something unexpected.
Agree, and Valve has to see the absurdity of the situation. If all of this has led to Portal 2 being released hours earlier than planned, than this ARG has been one huge dissapointing waste of time. Now compare that time wasted solving the ARG to the hours we get as a "prize"...
[QUOTE=brandonsh;29254776]It got destroyed by my train. :saddowns:[/QUOTE] Doc, don't you remember? You later found out that the lightning strike that sent you to into the past actually created an exact duplicate of the DeLorean and sent it 70 years into the future where you later tracked it down and made some slight modifications. Later in 1931 you got put in jail and the autofetch system made the DeLorean go forward to 1986 to take me to save you? (As revealed in Back To The Future: The Game: Episode 1)
Guys calm down the overclock will kick in at some point.
[QUOTE=Saxon;29254889]Guys calm down the overclock will kick in at some point.[/QUOTE] Yeah sure, when the game is already out.

This whole thing just got me thinking, what effect will this have on the EU release date? NA release was the 19th, everywhere else is the 21st...

[QUOTE=Saxon;29254889]Guys calm down the overclock will kick in at some point.[/QUOTE] Yeah right. I lost all hope for the overclock. Too many let downs in too short a period of time.
Wow what's the point of releasing it on a weekday. Now I get to work, play half of it, go to bed, wake up, work then play the other half, rather than doing it in one sitting on a freeday. I mean honestly. This has been pointless, and initially I was hopeful that the bars would move fast enough for a Sunday release. But now we find that its been leaked to consoles, some people already have the plot spoiled for them and tomorrow's classes are going to drag on in hopes that I can actually play when I get home.
[QUOTE=Conro101;29254918]doesn't he have kids or something he could bother them[/QUOTE] They're getting ready to go to college, or are about to be hit by a paradox that makes them no longer exist.
[QUOTE=aero1444;29254741]The bars fill up over time, the more people who play the game, the faster the bar fills up. The bar does not represent how many people are playing the game. Maybe the people playing the other games are a combination of: a) people playing the games because they want to b) people who have no knowledge of the ARG c) people who came from the steam store page, who are also b)[/QUOTE] ok, I see my error with the red bars but what about cpu? all the cpu playing the same game at the same time would fill up a bar just like that ( snaping fingers) also b) and c) is kinda my point, all our efforts should be in tell people to play the same game (with tweets, the wiki, etc)

This whole ARG just got even more pointless. If people have played/are playing then what's the fucking point in keeping it locked down on PC. [editline]18th April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=BlueYoshi;29254995]Available: 19 April 2011 This game will unlock in approximately 1 day and 15 hours Atleast for everyone on Steam, don't know about retailers.[/QUOTE] Yeah it says that for me too, but everywhere is slating it for a 21st release, in game stores and such.
[QUOTE=Linµx;29254911]This whole thing just got me thinking, what effect will this have on the EU release date? NA release was the 19th, everywhere else is the 21st...[/QUOTE] On Steam it's the 19th worldwide anyway. This isn't going to affect the retail release.
After the 419 K potatoes theory, then it's the 500 k one. Both annoys me greatly, seeing how many people got all the potatoes they could get by now. If Valve expects us to get more than 500 K potato before tomorrow, then I'll be pissed. (I'm already annoyed)
[QUOTE=Dracon;29254952]They're getting ready to go to college, or are about to be hit by a paradox that makes them no longer exist.[/QUOTE] Jules and Verne are staying the same age, I keep going back in time to get more of them every time they grow up. I know it causes paradoxes but I don't care because I'm cool now. :v:

I dont think 419k theory is correct. edit: but we will find out soon
I just back from the future, I see something important what I need to tell... but, I don't want to change the time-space.
[QUOTE=Nextil;29255065]Come on now, you missed the one which will obviously be the one: 450k[/QUOTE] Fair enough. Also "Good job getting to the milestone. All your progress is multiplied by 0.45. Keep up the good work" :suicide:

419,110 is what we are shooting for?
Ok, BIT.TRIP Beat is really fucked up for me. Whenever I start it, it's default resolution is way too big for my monitor, so the entire bottom left/left/bottom v:v:v is cut off for me. I have already tried the beat.cfg method, and that hadn't helped. If anyone knows what to do, it would be greatly appreciated. :love:
