    So some more research tells me I needed a tunnelbear, so I got one, and it has got me past that error message, its just installing now. So now I need to figure out what a tunnelbear is, some sort of VPN by the look of things.

    Well that got me logged in the first time, and now it runs fine without the VPN. I have no idea how to play that game though...

    Getting into this planetside 2 thing a bit more now. Any recommendations for a good headset or mic? (I have good headphones already) Outfit play kicks it up a notch...

    Being a huge Dark Souls fan, I thought I'd give Demon's Souls a go. Damn it's twice as hard as Dark. Think I'll give up now and put it on trademe. Has anyone tried the new DLC for Dark Souls?

    Also opened up Crysis2 ( which I got about a year ago but forgot about it ), not a bad FPS.

    I wasn't impressed by Crysis 2 (but then I wasn't impressed by Crysis either) mostly by the fact AI & "stealth" didn't work

    Crysis 2 uses DX9, but there is a DX11 and high res texture pack that can be downloaded.

    Oh I'll be in touch but it'll be a somewhat unfriendly visit from some Vanu Sovereignty photons Joined up with the Trojan Trolls outfit.

    Just got a Logitech USB Desktop Microphone, was 30% off at the warehouse, and recommended by some of the other outfit members.

    Hahaha no you are right, I did start playing Vanu first as laser guns are awesome, but mates were playing as TR, so switched. They have all since stopped playing for some reason, so I might go back to my Vanu char and join your outfit. You guys got TS3 and decent player numbers?

    Yeh use TS3, about 240 members (think they prune inactives every now and then), not sure what the leadership is like, but they seem to be looking for ways to improve, which is a good sign.
