Post by: duckman2000 on December 29, 2008, 03:32:09 PM: I don't think they are doing another beta, unless it's one of those popular ~~demos~~ betas.

Paying for themes, though, that's bad enough. Using an exclusive theme to push pre-orders? Horse armor seems down right appealing in comparison.

I thought it was included in the pre-order thing.

Post by: cool breeze on December 29, 2008, 03:43:53 PM: Yeah, Gears 2 did this also. Don't really care much since I don't really use other themes, I just download the free ones for some reason. And they've also been doing this for Qore for while now. It's all pretty stupid in the end since you can make a theme, with sound and all, in under 10 minutes.

The MP is real good. As long as you stick to around 16 players for smaller maps.
