Nocd Patches

[DUKE_NUKEM]

Just few considerations:
1.The only way to defeat piracy is to keep prices low and quality high; also reducing the quantity of clones published every month would be a great thing (I wish EA published a new FIFA every 3-4 years and in the meantime released an update patch with a small price).

2.Publishing games which don't require the original cd while (or just before) playing is the right thing to do to encourage the mùst primitive way of piracy, that is to say "one cd for 30000 installations)

3.For the codes there are keygens, for net activations there are hacked accounts and for telephone call dunno cause it's the most stupid thing I've ever heard, if PES4 had phone registration I would have waited months before playing.

4.Maybe if F.E.A.R. had full support for my video card (mobility radeon 9600 128mb) I would have bought it, I think a lot of people in my situation will solve the problem in "other ways", maybe "trying" it for free. What I want to say is: NO RESPECT FOR THE GAMERS; not all the people have the possibility to upgrade their pc every 6 months, "they" should think about it and about the opportunity of releasing games with absurd requirements and not optimized for med\low-end systems.

5.Too much hype around too much games will make people desire to "have everything". If reviewers had more courage there wouldn't be 5-10 must-buy games every month.

6.I'm tired, I go and play with MotoGp3, one of the most underrated games of the last year. See ya!

I agree with you fully, & we should not be forced to Upgrade our pc's just for a Game we like. Sometimes still I like Playing Quake 1 Yes it works on WinXp with SP2.

well, i understand using demos, but i (maybe you?) dont have full access to every beta appearing for a game.
a) you get them illegal or
b ) you get them with good contacts to publishers or luck by finding websites where you can register for it.
but in general you cant say "i want the beta" and download it just anywhere
i can just say, lend the game in video shop or whereever, try it and if its good, buy it. i often lend games to see how they are, i dont get a limited gaming experience like in a demo, i see the final status and i dont have bugs that arent in the full stores version.
