It's about time we talk about the flamethrower and how it should be made better in Helldivers 2, starting with the ability to destroy bug holes.
Lam is among the 120 characters available for recruitment in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes.

Despite developers’ assurances of fixing the bug, some early access players still encounter issues with recruiting Lam despite attempting the standard method.
I'm currently running this "free upgrade" on my Laptop, and (almost) everything is running fine, and smoothly.
Hope they don't "overfix" and break it before the actual release. It would be nice to finally see an improvement (especially in speed) in a new OS release. Also this faster SSD, and promised size reduction means, it's coming to netbooks too. This may finally convince me to buy one. (As long as it has a viable graphics chip).
(Can't try games on my underpowered laptop, but it's told that Widnows 7 runs games faster than Vista or XP on same configuration,... nice)
As long as it doesn't gobble a GB of RAM this time around, I'm fine with a new OS. Although, I'm starting to become fond of Vista, despite all the haters. It's got, at the least, a fair interface.
So far my windows 7 beta is going smooth, the Ram usage and CPU usage is very low and allows for my programs to open up faster, and even shut down time is much faster.
