No I just have a life and don't have the time to spend 365 days of the year trolling forums like some people here. Get a job and you'll understand.

And for the record I don't have sock accounts I don't have that kind of time, ask a mode to look at my IP if you don't believe me.

I could say the same thing about a lot of PC posters with silly arguments and comments.

But honestly what would the point of creating sock accounts if I wasn't going to use them to defend my main account?

@EducatingU_PCMR: @clyde46: That whole steam offline mode seems way too complicated https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=3160-agcb-2555 Like even though you want to play offline, you still have to make sure the game is properly updated. With consoles I can still play offline no matter what. Also, with consoles, if I have a physical disk, I can lend to friends. How do you lend games on PC?

Otherwise, I don't really have a problem with your argument. I understand that some people simply have a preference for PC. But consoles have been unfairly targeted this year (by some) when they're actually pretty damn good for what you're paying for. I've had a PS4 and have enjoyed games like Battlefield 4 even though the framerate isn't 60fps. Would I go out and buy a PC just so I can get it at that performance or even better? Probably not.

It's not, at all.

You just connect to Steam like you always do, and if you don't have an Internet connection it will automatically launch you in offline mode.

It's true there have been reports of Offline mode not working because the files get corrupted. Honestly you'd have to suffer a power outage for that to happen.

Every game that's 100% updated can be played, even if at the time of connection there's a new update released (obviously, if you're offline the client has no way to know a new update is available). If you leave 1 update at 50% and then try to connect in offline mode you probably can't play. But you can try deleting the update in progress by going to the download file folder on the Steam library and depending on the case it will let you play it.

This peasant saying has to die sometime. Hermits are the one true evil.

It'll die when you guys learn your place.

Yeah I agree with what Heil said. In the end having all of them is great because they're still different experiences.

Tell me. What is the terms of your superiority? What skills do you possess over 'peasants' in the REAL WORLD that makes you superior? It's simply obnoxious and that's that.

We're superior when it comes to games, not in the real world. Where did you get the idea that we're better in the REAL WORLD ?

You can play steam games offline. There is an offline mode and the login details are encrypted onto your drive. I do it all the time when I play in the living room so no one disturbs me while I am on the couch.

That moment when PC makes more gaming revenue than all of the consoles combined which include AAA games. Must be sad.

I'd love to see that AAA point proven. Evidence would be peachy!

Alas, that users track record of proving points ... I'd better not hold my breath :(

developers are already taking PC seriously (evidence). and it is from developers that the games cometh.

so that insult's effectiveness is mitigated to zero, because it 100% contradicts the reality of intended dev support for PC.

Just going to let you know that all the hard core esports (multi million dollar tournaments, esports players that are actually celebrities) are PC exclusives.

The only platform that isn't taken seriously is console. I mean, to be fair, it's target demographic is the average gamer who just wants to play "Just Dance 20" , "COD 25" and FIFA 30

@SolidGame_basic: one can never trump the other. Not consistently anyway. These are 2 different worlds of gaming you're talking about. PC gaming is much deeper and complex in every way, especially in gameplay and options. Consoles are more tuned for casual gamers. The best example I could use to illustrate the differences would be a game like Civilization IV on PC, compared to Civ Rev on 360/PS3. C4 is a thousand times deeper than it's console cousin. It's on a different galaxy all together.

I hardly think these 2 worlds of gaming should ever be compared to one another. It's like beer vs hard liquor: they're both there to create the same effect, but in the end it's your preference towards your own personal tastes that will make the decision on what you think is better.
