Indeed, I've been in the closed beta for long enough that I own all the characters and all of the skins.

It is interesting that they haven't told us whether we get to keep any of it though. If the free currency is to see what items are most popular, they had better do it based on what is purchased first. As even with

I'm physician by trade so I think of myself as at least a decently smart guy. But when I watch Carmack speak about his own field I just have no chance at keeping up with him. I try to follow along I really do, but the guy is just has a crazy intellect.

I'll tune in for the keynote, but it's shame I couldn't attend as

That doesn't remove the cost for wireless broadcasters, repeaters (yes, generally you'd assume these things would be bought outright, but sadly more often than not they rent the devices or pay their isp for them monthly), nor the cost of to pay a network admin who focuses on the wifi. Even smaller institutions like

Yep, you're right. They can either monetize their wifi to keep it free, or just not provide it for free as well. Either or.

Some airports have their own zip codes. So depending on how large the airport is, they are paying for broadcasters, repeaters, an internet service, on-staff techs to keep it running, and a service to ensure that it doesn't get hacked, just as a convenience to you the traveler.

So the short answer is: Yes.
For small

While I understand what you're getting at as a whole, with your comment of, "I downloaded the Marvel game, confirmed that I was online and then promptly deleted it from my iPad." I don't see what the problem is, or how it "Costs Gamers Their Dignity." They are monetizing their wifi internally in efforts to keep it

Agreed, I compared it to twisted metal 1 on the ps in my reply. It looks terrible.

Yish. It looks like something I would have regretted renting back in the twisted metal PS1 era.

While I can see what you're getting at, I think there'd be far too many limitations with this system.

As a person who has played a lot of field sports; but hates sports games, I'd love a style of sports games that appeals to me. This just wouldn't be it.

When playing sports in real life; which is what this would be

"Not everyone on the internet is a raging lunatic."

The only one on a soap box here, throwing around pejoratives is you.

He previously explained that he had to exit the game to go do other things, or as he mentioned a power outage, etc.

That's not "reloading to avoid mistakes." Nor is there any reason to interpret it

No where did he state he was exploiting the save functionality. I think you're looking to be defensive here. Take a breather and reread his post. He wants it to save more frequently so that if he has to exit the game he can come back and still be where he was at, or relatively close it without having to replay a half

A very noble act by the MWO guys. I can't help but wonder what kind of money they'd raise by using something other than a Jenner though. I understand the proposed relevance behind the chassis, but most all MWO players already have a Jenner.

Would it not have been a more grand gesture to make an awesome, MKII, or

The cinematography didn't focus much on her feet; understandably so when she had a chest, stomach, ass and legs to display, but she did have those horribly ugly keebler elf style slippers.

The Mandalorians were never at peace, Jango Fett on the other hand was. Boba's armor is so beaten and lacking in pieces because Mandalore wasn't allowed to make weapons or armor for a very long time and it was hard to find, until Boba later became Mandalore (the person, not a planet =P )

I think he was more commenting on the fact that most of it looks like cloth and it's loosely fitted together, rather than how "worn in" it appears.

Boba Fett's armor has always been an extremely poor representation of beskar'gam. It's hodge podge color scheme, helmet, and gadgets are all correct, but the fact that

Unfortunately Never wet leaves a weird white coating that become visible after drying or bending/handling the object. Not particularly useful for clothes =(

I like the white blue conceptually, it's just not something I'd suspect someone would wear in public. Anything solid white does two things, draw a lot of attention, and easily get stained. But I agree, the red could be a bit darker.

The character being voiced is Jay, by Jason. So yes, it would be implicit that it would be Jay. So as you said, a pedantic failure.

The blue and black one is actually pretty cool. It's nice that the hood can be buttoned forward as well, allowing for it to actually be of use if it rains. The white version is a bit garish in my opinion, but the black and red could be pulled off as well. They have a couple other color options that don't have photos

I'm well aware of what he or she was intending to point out. Hence my reply that the current pod casts aren't necessarily where the people who are replying that this doesn't sound like the character "Jay," had formed their memory of his voice from. Making a reference to the podcast, and that clearly if I don't listen
