    Steam dun fucked up

    Quoted for truth. 2% cashback on everything is basically free money for me. I've paid 0 interest on this CC and get all points that I just redeem on Amazon. The problem is not the money gone when dealing with online systems like steam, PSN, xbox, Blizzard, etc. The problem is that (1) you will...

    Fallout 4

    If you mean sanctuary then the river you first cross over using the bride is within the boundaries. I dropped mine right in there and tab power lines to it.

    Fallout 4

    17 minutes to finish downloading over Vyprvpn! I've been pre-connected to their NZ node for 6.5 hours in case I slightly overslept and it needed to start downloading without me.

    Fallout 4

    In that case I think I'll go with this for my starting stats depending on just how "early" you get the PERCEPTION Bobblehead. STR 3 - Armor mods PER 4 - Lockpicks END 1 - Nothing initially but need to get to 5 for Aquaboy asap CHA 6 - Companion and Settlement perks. Definitely going to...

    Fallout 4

    Also someone mentioned a few pages back that getting your early INT investment back may take 32 levels but I've seen on a reddit thread that people were hitting 25 in 20-30 hours so it doesn't sound like it will take long to get that return on investment and start seeing the benefit of heavy...

    Fallout 4

    Found this on Reddit Acquire a VPN with the ability to change to New Zealand IP, I use PIA and pay $50 a year for it...a really good investment imo Exit steam and change VPN to New Zealand time Start steam and go to 'Steam Settings' 'Downloads' and change region to New Zealand Go to...

    Did you completely close steam and only re-open it once connected via VPN?

    Guild Wars 2

    I've got an 80 of nearly every class. Only one I really like right now is the Dragonhunter which is a lot of fun. Haven't invested any time in legendary or ascended crafting as the little I heard about it is massive time sink.

    Guild Wars 2

    To all So I have the base GW2 game, the legendary HoT expansion and about 3k gems. If I were you what would you prioritize spending the gems on? Is the living story thing worth it? Anything else? Must haves?

    I'm close to this though I think I'll leave Luck at 1 and bump up CHA

    World Health Organization declares war on bacon

    Guess I'm just not going to live to 120 then because fuck not eating bacon.

    Guild Wars 2

    I went ahead an impulsed purchased HoT. Sigh. Honestly I get my money back given it is free to play but $99 is still $99.

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    As someone who as literally been through this exact situation with Comcast I can tell you what Arative said is true. I didn't even live at be address any longer and hadn't been a Comcast subscriber for nearly 4 months before I moved out when I get my an out of the blue collections call. Was...

    Guild Wars 2

    This is true. To be fair to Anet there is a lot of content in Guild Wars 2 for the price of just the box. The caveat is that you have to enjoy that content but if you do it's fairly easy to get your money back.

    Star Wars: Battlefront, as told by Dice on Frostbite 3 (PS4?/XBone?/PC?)

    It may be a good game but this is EA we are talking about..

    Combined with really shitty programming and delivery models that can't keep up with the times.

    The Martian (2015)

    HBO Should do a series the follows the events of the in real time with News Interviews and the whole bit. Like when War of the Worlds came on the radio and everyone believe it they should put this on TV like that.

    Star Wars: Battlefront, as told by Dice on Frostbite 3 (PS4?/XBone?/PC?)

    Sigh I'm getting old. I love the theme of the game but I'm only getting 15-20 kills a match. I get way to pissed when I get 3 shot but it takes me a full clip to take someone down.

    If they haven't fixed the Hola check then chances are you can get it half off on release.

    The Martian (2015)

    The dust storm is a known plot hole. An extreme dust storm on Mars supposedly has the force of a light breeze on your face. What he could have done is use lightning instead. There are many examples of lightning strikes happening and a dust storm with raging lightning is probably more realistic...

    Just used 2KXRX-X9746-KXF3G-M24JR-4DTHZ Thanks Drakakur. Really interested to see if there is progression in this game. Also all PC codes are used up. And the last two XB1 codes are now used up.

    Hololens dives deeper - Project X-Ray

    Definetly in it's infancy. From those very slow and very structured movements you can guess there must be some serious issues yet to overcome before it can go mainstream.

    The Martian (2015)

    Good movie and Matt Daemon makes a fantastic Watney but the movie felt very... "Americanized" for lack of a better term. The book is clearly for nerds and people who appreciate technical complexity delivered in an eloquent manner.

    Does that make it worthless or is it upgradeable to Y2?

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I've heard a few comments that Bad JuJu is actually good now? Is it better then Suros? I still haven't picked up the xpac but I know I have an un-leveled bad JuJu because it use to be so shitty.

    Old Man's War should be required reading.

    The Martian (2015)

    First audible book I've actually bought. This is coming from someone who has access to just about every decent audiobook torrent out there and knew about the free version of the Martian etc.

    I'm a nerd. I'd use that shit in a heartbeat at the next Gencon convention or some such. Working in an office full of computer engineers can be awesome at times.

    Racism - Lets keep it civil. Also, Gravy is white.

    I've just read several of the past pages on blacks being athletic and come to the conclusion that we are thinking to narrowly. There are more factors that go into picking a basketball player then just athletic skill and there are even more factors that determine someone 20 something athletic...

    Smartwatches / Fitness Trackers

    I like my Apple Watch but it is a TOTALLY unnecessary luxury buy. I'd like to have the steel version but no way could I convince myself to go that high. I use it mostly for these activities. My daily workout. General App notifications (specific slick deal alerts mostly, CNN and other news...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I'm one of those filthy casuals these days. With kids I just don't have the patience or time for endless repetitive grinds that game developers keep calling "content". My early view of the new xpac seemed like more of the same albeit new strikes and new weapons but it still looked like +gooder...

    Are you playing on PC? Try playing it with a controller. My experience with it was wholly different once I played it on the PS4 with a controller.

    Metal Gear Solid V

    I thought I read somewhere or someone mentioned some easy way to get a bunch of A rank soldiers from or after mission 12? I can't find the post so maybe I'm imagining things.

    I haven't played this in forever. Apparently I loved precision kills. Gogo keyboard and mouse.
