"Here, with the Strana Mechty wolf, we see what may be the epitome of a warrior, cunning matched with instinct and stealth, joined with a final, terrifying attack. For this mighty creature, I name you. You are Clan Wolf."
-Nicholas Kerensky, 2810
Transcript:
Quote
We are Clan Wolf, children of Kerensky.
We carry the honor of his name on our shoulders,
as our fathers did before us.
The Remembrance speaks to us of the evil in man's will,
of the reasons for Exodus and the rights of the travelers.
Arcadia is our destiny and our right.
Enlightenment is our gift.
By the Bloodnames of the Founders we must return,
return and protect that which is unigue among the stars.
Terra awaits us as it was written.
We are the last of the Wardens.
The sole hope for the Earth.
Quote
We are Jade Falcon, great among the Clans.
We are warriors who fight with the strength of the falcons claw and ascend to the heavens on the wings of the same.
We remember with the clarity of falcon-sight the words of Kerensky.
Through the smoke of time he speaks to us, his chosen, and urges us onward with the promise of Eden.
We will retake what is ours by right, that shining jewel Terra!
Not the vastness of space nor the Wolf’s obstinate howl will stay us from our righteous goal.
We are Crusaders and will trample all who stand in our way!
They want the Earth! O_O!
Sorry; only thing I can find on ghost bear.
Quote
Children of the Bear, hearken to my words:
Be always vigilant.
Learn for yourselves that which your forebears imparted So easily and freely;
Demand of yourselves
The foresight of Jorgensson
And the courage of Tseng;
Through them, we are strong.
To them a debt is owed,
Repaid through loyalty undying and Character unflinching.
-From the Oath of Acceptance, Clan Ghost Bear
Found no vids on Clan Smoke Jaguar; sorry guys! Though what I found was Clan Smoke Jaguar had hard times throughout the entire ordeal. See for yourself.
Quote
Remember Franklin Osis,
Father of the Clan.
Three strengths he gave us:
The jaguar's spring that brings the enemy down,
The jaguar's claws that rend the enemy's heart,
The jaguar's taste of the enemy's hot blood.
-- The Remembrance, Passage 104, Verse 18, Lines 5-10
----------
Five are our foundation;
One above the rest.
Four are the steppingstones,
The fifth the pinnacle.
The laborer, the technician, the scientist, the merchant,
These are the stepping stones
To the warrior's place.
As the insect feeds the bird,
As the bird feeds the wolf,
As the wolf feeds the smoke jaguar,
So all give life to the warrior
Who sheds his blood for their glory.
-- The Remembrance, Passage 121, Verse 43, Lines 12-24
----------
In our dark day of wandering,
He gave us Hidden Hope;
Our sacred duty calls us to return.
As our Father told us
And his father before him,
Ours is the redemption of the Universe;
Ours is the paradise of Terra;
Ours is the war of liberation.
-- The Remembrance, Passage 204, Verse 6, Lines 2-9

why do the videos use FreeSpace Dialogues?

why does the second video use Freespace dialouges?
Fan-made video.
Also you don't have to quote an entire post; that's a LOT to quote for a simple question, and a lot of bandwidth for those with limited bandwidth due to the videos.
(Also that's not the second video, that's the 6th video.)
Good work Koniving. Sigh. If only I could run the game in more then just low settings on everything. It is so pretty with a nice machine
Thank you.
Now you know how I feel when I try to play Metro: Last Light.
16 gigs ram. 4 core processor. Twin video cards. Can't even get 16 FPS on medium.
At face value this game should run a lot easier than it does. But it's in desperate need of some serious optimizations.
Maybe someday soon. Speaking of which they did a serious bug fixing run for this patch. So maybe once 3/3/3/3 and CW is out we can get those optimizations? Who knows. But then maybe you'll be able to run at least medium settings.

I run on High with my really really crappy computer with no issues...........unless I turn on blur lol
why in gods name I'd use blur idk
I'm no super computer nerd but I tried a fix that made BF4 run smoother, I enabled multi-threading in the 3D options under the Nvidia control panel. I'm not certain if it'd help anyone else, but I got about 10-15 fps out of it.
-edit- by the way, your Timberwolf is terrifying.
