Special Request for the Dev team

[Gui Brazil]

Hey Brazil, would it work better if someone from the US bought it and shipped it to you as a "Gift".
would you be able to avoid customs charges etc.? I mean you can pay someone through PayPal
and maybe save some money. I would imagine the shipping is still crazy though but I don't know.

That's another way, yeah. I was gonna try something like that with Zedblade a while ago but the shipping destroyed any possibilities. The package was rather big, though.

or does brazil actually invest in scientific research O: ?

Dude Brazil is not Haiti!

We can atually do stuff...

Brazil is a country in South America. It is the fifth largest country by geographical area, occupying nearly half of South America, the fifth most populous country, and the fourth most populous democracy in the world.
[...]
Brazil is the largest national economy in Latin America, the world's tenth largest economy at market exchange rates and the ninth largest in purchasing power parity (PPP)...
[...]
A global power in agriculture and natural resources, Brazil unleashed the greatest burst of prosperity that it has witnessed in three decades. Brazil will become an oil superpower, with massive oil discoveries in recent times

But the country sucks huge balls if you're dependant on the government or don't have the structure necessary for a private school or private health care (which means like 60~80% of the population).

As a large middle-income country, Brazil still has several underdeveloped regions. Its educational system is accordingly plagued by many deficiencies and racial and regional disparities.[6][5][7][8]

As of 2002:

   * Literacy rates of 88.2% for people aged 15 or older
   * 6.2 years of formal education, on average. (Compare with 12 years in the U.S., 11 in South Korea and 8 in Argentina)

   8.4 years for white people, 6.1 years for black people
   5.1 years in the Northeast versus 7.2 years in the Southeast and 6.9 years in the South.

According to the Brazilian Government, the most serious health problems are;:[1]

   * Childhood mortality: about 2.51% of childhood mortality, reaching 3.77% in the northeast region.
   * Motherhood mortality: about 73.1 deaths per 100,000 born children in 2002.
   * Mortality by non-transmissible illness: 151.7 deaths per 100,000 habitants caused by heart and circulatory diseases, along with 72.7 deaths per 100,000 habitants caused by cancer.
   * Mortality caused by external causes (transportation, violence and suicide): 71.7 deaths per 100,000 habitants (14.9% of all deaths in the country), reaching 82.3 deaths in the southeast region.

In 2002, Brazil accounted for 40% of malaria cases in Americas.[2] Nearly 99% are concentrated in the Legal Amazon Region, which is home to not more than 12% of the population.[2]

I have a special request for the dev team: ban her plz.

[frvge]

Arguing about Ray can go into the Off-Topic forum. Temp locked.

Unless you mind having a FPS of 25 (which is still smooth if you ask me)

WTF!

25 fps is NOT smooth. AT ALL! OMGz0rZ!
60 fps is smooth. Not 25.

my specs r:

NVIDIA Geforce 9600M GT
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.00 GHz
4.00 GB of ram


will it run smoothly on mine?

[frvge]

Sounds like a laptop. Should be ok-ish on lower resolutions and maybe with less detail.

my specs r:

That laptop will give you 35 fps on max settings at 1440Ãâ€"900 in UT3, less on PS.

[Succubus Dryad Of The Undying Comet]

I run UT3 with 43 FPS average (1024 x 768, Shangri-La, max settings, 3 minutes running around the map) on this:
GF 7900gs 256MB
Pentium Dual Core e210 @ 2.4GHz
1GB RAM

So that laptop should run way better.

The game may feel smooth at 60, but games like the the Quake Engine (which as far as I know Unreal is based off) and the Source engine tend to have a sweet spot for FPS, at which the engine works best. It's 125fps in the Quake Engine and 101fps in Source.

[Succubus Dryad Of The Undying Comet]

Quake Engine (which as far as I know Unreal is based off).

No. Unreal was developed from scratch.
You did no research at all and this shall not be forgotten.
Also, who told you that?

[xXxDREDxXx]

lol o alright.
yea i wish i had gaming desktop though but i cant rlly afford one right now

[frvge]

When we're close to release, I think we'll have a thread with the specs of the devs and their min/avg/max FPS during a game.

[xXxDREDxXx]

sounds good   ;D
