    The Matrix (1999)

    I was just giving an example of how it most likely would be done. Occam's Razor, google it. Sure, they don't have to harvest from whatever two specific humans are fucking, but it would be simple for them to do and there's no reason not to do it. You are the one who asked questions that you can...

    The Matrix (1999)

    Are you fucking trolling? Did someone hack your account? Seriously. Humans in the Matrix fuck in their minds, yeah, they don't know the difference. The Matrix has to determine when/if a female gets "pregnant" then take an egg from her and sperm from the guy and make the baby. A decent RNG...

    The Matrix (1999)

    You're looking at it wrong. Humans in the Matrix don't have kids (no physical contact) anymore. The Matrix makes the choice (probably would use an RNG) and all babies are test tube babies.

    Maybe if they stopped crashing their toasters- sorry,servers, we could find out.

    I'm aware of the criteria for pricing an ad-spot, thanks though. Anyways, they've been aware of the Nielsen problem for years and are supposedly working on a new system, but who knows when they'll ever implement it. They already have better data from including some of the new sources, but the...

    They can still get ad revenue if they disable FF during an on demand viewing, problem is they can't charge tons more for "prime-time" commercial spots. Commercials are more fucking retarded than ever now anyways, I mean, what fuckwads living in a cave watches shit when it airs, instead of...

    You can access the foundry content from the UI, it's like "K" or "L" I don't remember.

    Maybe someday TV will emerge from the fucking dark ages and all programming will be on demand, so archaic things like time-slots will stop fucking things up for everybody.

    The best sequel of all time?

    Aliens would be my top pick, but only because they never made a sequel to Tombstone. I get that T2 was a decent movie, but fuck, how can you guys stand Furlong's super shitty acting that much? Ugh. He ruins every scene he's in every time he opens his fucking mouth.

    Ender's Game (2013)

    Looks good. Ford makes a great Graff. Kingsley as Rackham is an interesting choice. Sucks that the kids are so much older though, kinda lessens the main impact of the story.

    Prometheus (Alien 0) - 1 Year Later

    They're a tugboat crew with basic protocols to follow, sure. They are not a hand picked fucking team whose fucking specific mission is to seek out an alien race.

    Prometheus (Alien 0) - 1 Year Later

    There's also the fact that they are neither soldiers nor scientists. They are the crew of a fucking tugboat.

    Neverwinter: PC

    Click the 4th button at the top of your UI to access the Wondrous Bazaar, ID scrolls are 15 AD for items up to level 29, 45 for up to 59, and 125 for level 60. They used to sell them on a gold vendor, but took that out in one of the beta weekends, and ID scrolls were only available for 450 AD...

    Definitely a pretty damned good episode, except for too much Shirley. And they finally made Pop Pop somewhat funny. They really need to focus on Abed more like this, he's the core of what makes the show good.

    Neverwinter: PC

    Ah, that makes a little more sense. Personally, I don't have a set limit per game or per month, but I do have to feel like I'm getting the right value for every dollar. Which is why I can drop $60 on a founders pack, but still think most of the prices in the Zen store are a bit steep. Same way...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Unless you're posting this from a timeline where everyone has the exact same yearly salary and the same bills you should be aware of the fact that different people have vastly different amounts of disposable income. Your $20 could easily be someone else's $100.

    Neverwinter: PC

    Yeah, a lot of these FTP games don't seem to understand the definition ofmicro-transactions. The early game is easy without spending any money, but lack of bag space will start to be a pain in the ass, plus upgrading stuff like your mount or companion (to be added later) cost shit-tons of AD...

    To avoid the random downloading of files, go to Options in the patcher, select Disable On Demand Patching, it'll download 2gb, and then you shouldn't have that problem anymore.

    Neverwinter: PC

    The $60 pack isn't bad. The legacy weapon speeds up the leveling/killing til you hit your late teens, you get a wolf pet that can level to rank 30 (gold bought companions only go to 15, for now) the mount is way faster than the gold bought ones and is useful mainly because the base run speed is...

    The current value of AD to Zen is pretty bad, but hopefully it will lessen somewhat after founders blow through their 600k/2 million AD that came with their founder packs.

    Neverwinter: PC

    There's nothing cheezy about the Trickster Rogue, it's just the only Striker (pure dps) class available right now. They recently overnerfed the GWF, which is more of a defender class anyway. Problem is, in a mostly solo-centric game, the DPS disparity shouldn't be as great as it is right now...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Why would DDO be on the front page? It is ancient, has a shitty looking graphics engine which isn't aging well, a lame environment (eberron) and has been a pretty lackluster title in a lot of ways, probably having to do with Turbine putting all their eggs in their Lotro basket. Neverwinter not...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Actually, you're wrong. You really think a small core of aging old school PnP gamers is enough to keep companies like WoTC afloat? Hell, DDO is ancient now, and FTP and still manages to generate enough funds for Turbine to keep it running and adding to it.

    Neverwinter: PC

    Launch day for any FTP title is gonna be pretty shitty, especially with an IP like Neverwinter. That being said, Cryptic is a crap studio who hasn't done anything worthwhile since CoH yet has someone managed to lock down two of the hugest IPs you can get. I'd imagine that having the Foundry tech...

    It's lower. Someone posted the percentages in this thread not too long ago, I think. Also, socket colors are more likely to roll a certain color based on the item type, like int req gloves will turn blue more often, etc.

    Critically acclaimed shows of the last 20 years that you haven't watched

    I'll second this. I kept putting off checking this show out, I like Olyphant, but I am pretty tired of cop shows and it sounded like just a modern day gunfighter series. So I watched the first couple episodes and was pretty surprised. I was like, so he says some badass shit and shoots people...

    The Purge (2013)

    I never stated or implied that I expect perfect logic in movies, there's no need to exaggerate my statement to support your argument. What makes a movie like this interesting is if it's got some basis in truth. They not only state the belief that humansneedto commit crimes, but that they can...

    The Purge (2013)

    The basic premise of the movie is flawed (and retarded). People don't commit crimes because they need a "release". And if for some reason they did, I seriously doubt 12 hours a year would be enough.

    It's just you, because her annoyance level has always been at 11. She has never once said or done a single thing that was funny. When she is the focus for more than a couple seconds I start to forget I'm watching a comedy. Her character is beyond useless and completely unnecessary. Others...

    Yeah, this is the last, but only way to get in is to pony up $60 or $200. Blatant (and stupid) cash grab by PWE. Hard to believe how many people have already dished out that kinda cash for a FTP game. Open Beta starts on the 30th, best just to wait.

    New Rule: Should we cull all EQ-Neckbeard discussion from game threads?

    I voted yes, not because I think it should be heavily moderated, or that that would do any good. Simply because I agree it's a problem and has been for years. Not so much the comparing of game mechanics ("armchair dev'ing" unless they are championing some outdated and retarded mechanic, just...

    That's not what happened. Carl said nothing. Hershel says "Drop the weapon, son", kid says "Sure, here, take it", but his finger is right by the trigger and the barrel is only a couple inches from lining up with Carl's head.

    Epic fail on their part then. If someone points a gun at you and tells you to drop your weapon you have three options: 1. Open your hand and drop it. 2. Crouch down and set it on the ground. 3. Hesitate, while getting all shifty-eyed and get shot in the face.
