Instagram picture on the launcher?

[Beer Fiend]

Any reason for it? It just seems to be a blank top down image with no caption that links to your Insta, where there's also a second similar image.

Not teasers surely?

I think it just shows the last image posted on their Instagram - but it's new indeed, I've never noticed such feature in the launcher before

That's what made me wonder about it. It's kind of unusual.

 

[MarkJohnson]

Yeah, I seen that earlier. last night. I was wonder what was going on.

I miss the days when I could click on the desktop shortcut for a Paradox game and the game would simply launch and not have to go through a crappy launcher that no one asked for and no one wanted.

This isn't one of those threads.

I agree, if Paradox can't make its own real store with launcher, just leave it up to Steam.

Maybe the istagram stuff has something to do with this Paradox ARC comning out?

It says it will announce CO's new game! I'm hopeing for C:S2, but I seriously doubt it. They're too busy milking C:S1 still.

Cities In Motion 3 confirmed.

Just had another peek. There's a definite pattern forming in the pictures (probably an 8)

Probably "8 March"? That would make sense, as I am due to go back to work (for 29 days on a boat) on 7 March. Seems to be the way lately.

Isn't it the 8th Anniversary this year?

 

[UsmanSyed]

Correct, 10tn March marks the 8th anniversary of the game.

 

[Beer Fiend]

It's a pattern, but not an 8.

This is probably in relation to the incoming announcement. The salt will be delicious if it's not CS2 and if it's a Multiplayer mode, that's stupid, you're stupid, I ain't using it.

Seems like the patterns that appeared on their mugs and T-shirts in one of their recent videos

I'm just wondering what the actual pattern is. Is it an 'S'? Is it a box? Is it a circle? Is it a Dollar symbol?

Clearly it's the Aperture Science logo
Cities: Skylines with portals confirmed

 

[MarkJohnson]

It is just a hexagon?

Maybe a logo for the new C/O title. or one of the other two Paradox titles?

We'll find out more tomorrow at 9am Pacific.

It is a brand new game they said. So in that case it would be a multiplayer new game and not a mode for CS. Or maybe CS2 with multiplayer.
