So now would be a good time to do a full image backup!

Tomorrow I will image it with my Acronis True Image 2015 ISO on USB. Once all installed I will have it continually imaging to NAS using Acronis True Image 2016. Incrementally and consolidating every 30 days.

Because I just finished Farcry Primal.
Started playing it two weeks ago, spent 42 hours, and I've finished it at 100%, including all trophies and a full backpack.
Ah well, I guess I'll be having time again for important stuff now

Does that include the DLC[^]? 
I haven't tried Primal - I enjoyed the first Far Cry, but the second turned me right off the series when enemies respawned all the damn time!

I do have the collectors edition, but I didn't realize that was DLC.
What a crappy DLC that was, worst 45 minutes of the game

Well, I'm about to install Visual Studio on my restored win7 install. Is there anything about vs15 (community edition) I should know about? Should I bother installing VS2013 "just in case"?

Be warned - the install takes for bloody ever...
I've twice installed it and twice uninstalled it (and, btw, uninstalling takes just as long...) - and am sticking to 2012 for now. It's ok, I guess, I just don't like the way it seems to push you towards the cloud all the time. Once it wouldn't even load because it said it couldn't connect to my Microsoft account... even though that resolved itself in the end, that was the final straw for me.

My caveat is that uninstalling it can be impossible.
I had it on a VM which would not run the uninstall at all. It would just blink away when you tried to uninstall. I needed diskspace so I finally just brute-force deleted it.
At the time I Googled for answers about it and this problem of uninstalling is more prevalent and more painful than I'd ever expected.

I agree .I had terrible problems with visual studio 2015 and a lot of compatibility issues.I had projects in VS 2010 and VS 2012 and I was getting so many errors cause of compatibility.I think VS 2012 is the most mature.

I like VS2015 Community Edition. It's a little slower than VS2012, but not to the extent that it bothers me, but I suppose the speed of your machine is important. It has some nice new features that I like. Projects created in 2015 can be opened unaltered in 2012 and vice versa. But I believe projects created in versions before 2012 will be permanently modified on loading.

That feature goes back to VS 2010 SP1 actually.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Update 1 ruined VS2015 for me. Constant crashes, windows that wouldn't open, etc.
After uninstalling Update 1 everything was fine (again).
The only problem I have with VS2015 is that it is slooooooow.
Let me rephrase that: It's SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!
In case you didn't get the message, it's really very very very very very very very very SLOW.
Oh, yeah, it's also slow.

Update 2 is published and I tought it's time to install Update 1, but after reading your message I'll wait for VS 2016 CE.
By the way... have you noticed that VS 2015 is slow?
Sorry for my bad English
|
|
|
|
|
Don't forget to mention that it's also quiet slooooww!
(Wrong settings? Wrong machine?)
There is no cloud! It's just someone else's machine...
|
|

|

Agreed. It is slow.
Also, like 2013, there is an issue with the cursor not being where you expect it to be. Not a show stopper but flaming annoying.
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.

I use 2013 at home at at work, the only problems I have had with it are that occasionally intellisense stops functioning(a restart of VS2013 fixes it) - so I would go with VS2013.

VS2015 comes with a number of enhancements to Intellisense. If you have a reasonably fast machine, I will recommend giving it a try. After all, the Community Edition is free.

I cant tell if the first 2013 is a typo - else i read this as - 2013 intellisense breaks - so use 2013.
|
|
|
|
|
You read it correctly - no typo and I did basically say that 2013 breaks, however from what I have read it breaks less frequently than 2015 so with the restart option I am okay with that.

I've had no problems with VS2015 Community or Pro. Both work fine on one old and one new machine.
