Re: *STOP PRESS* I played two early builds of GOAT
I can't tell if progress on the game is flying by or if things hit a standstill cause David found a big ol problem in the code...

Re: So um.. where is everyone?
It would be kool to see GoaT have an area of the map explorable that was the result of a severe ice storm. It would be interesting to navigate such slippery conditions, but also seeing everything encased in semi-transparent ice would be fascinating. And you could have some broken ice/falling ice as...

Re: Playing GOAT at high resolution - Korean monitors?
Sorry I missed your latest posts. Even more sorry to hear of the trouble your friend ran into! I hope he finds a way to have it work out via adapters. The design of these monitors isn't really their strong suit and the brightness seems to be a little too much on the photo, but I'm glad he is enjoyin...

Lol, I hope that is an Ultra HD screen there. The only way to play GOAT in its full glory.
The whole point is: you don't port to SteamBox. You port to SteamOS. But you can install SteamOS on any system. That's how I understand it and that is the huge difference between the SteamBox and consoles.
