Quoting: SkullyVery fun. Finished it already. Didn't find a single bug/problem. Now I am looking forward to this even more. Similar style to play as Portal.
How was the performance for you?

It's odd, but something is making me feel like it's sluggish.

Edit > I turned on the FPS counter and WOW LOW FPS.

It had my CPU set to ULTRA and everything else set to HIGH in the performance section. Heh their auto detect fails.

I have also as per your small suggestion made it so selected stores are kept highlighted when you filter, hope it helps!

To be fair the firefox auto rss button would have always pointed to the main article RSS as the sales RSS has never been in our meta, it's only on the link on the page.

Clicking a single sale from the RSS should now take you to the page with just that sale :), so you can either visit that sale, or reset the filters to see all of them.

Well if it's free for now...sure why not.

QuoteIt's no wonder people sink so much time into it as most of the time at the start is learn what the f u c k you're doing.
Really? F u c k? OK...

I love your articles and am glad you're back, but I honestly don't think that language is necessary.

I am downloading the game now, I really like World of Tanks, but this looks just as good and works on Linux!

EDIT: OK, so I can't say f u c k in a comment but it's OK in an article. Nice.

It's allowed in comments, but a warning comes up stating that it's not always needed.

The reason it is in place for comments is to stop people attacking each other. Having one little word in an article is not an issue. Don't make a meal out of it.

If you bothered to read our rules (link above the comment box), you would know this.

Ps. No need to comment the same thing twice ;)

Edit > I am in the process of removing the notice though I don't think it's needed since we turned off guest comments.

Quoting: Skully
Quoting: liamdaweActually the Postal 2 team have taken the Linux stuff in-house now. I've been meaning to post an update about it.
You have a link for that?
Yup: http://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/postal-2-no-longer-being-worked-on-by-icculus-rws-taking-it-inhouse.4551

As for Clockwork it seems Mac OSX has been giving them a lot of issues they are almost finished with, so "soon" :D

Paging has now been removed to make the sorting more useful.

We have also removed the pop-up, all sales now open in a new tab.

We have been looking to drop that actually, and it's an easy change to make. It was going to have more information like a trailer, but we never found the time/a decent way to add it all in. That will be removed shortly (it annoys me now too).
