    XCOM 2

    So I'm in September in my Rookie game. I'm not really trying to win fast, but liberate the world. I've done so in 3 regions, and contacted 6 more. With 13 haven people + an engineer as an advisor. My liberated regions are now generating about 500 each. My last supply drop was...

    Just a 2 minute clip specifically of the 2 minutes of the landing. Pulled from the webcast I believe.

    I thought this PBS Space Time video was worth a watch for even the casual astronomy/technology nerd. Pretty cool things happening, can't to see what we find.

    DOTA 2

    Dota MMR is not broken Gravel, you are the MMR that it says you are. The faster you accept this truth, the better off you'll be. You could give any of the 4k players on our forum your account (not even a pro). And they would win without fail from 1600 to 2600 with virtually no losses...

    XCOM 2

    So longwar 2. I tried it on veteran/ironman (2nd/normal) difficulty for many restarts, I couldn't really get shit going all that deep in the game After reading a r/xcom post with comments stating that the non rookie modes were as hard as vanilla legendary. I just abandoned my previous...

    DOTA 2

    When forced a linken's carrier isn't going to move if linken's is broken, the combo is the same. It just begins with the force staff click into the X. Maybe I am misunderstanding your comment.

    Rocket League - PS4/PC

    Well I made Champion in Standard 3's too, finished it off solo queue. This game is super great, Season 4 in April, a long time out. I'm good for coaching people up on concept and details of the game if anyone is interested (on PC). Don't be the last person on earth to play this game...

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    As a neutral fan of sports, this was an incredible game. At least we can just stop debating if he's the greatest. Because its over for now. He's Michael Jordan level G.O.A.T now.

    Mirana wave, 13 or something got me on my first attempt. Was worth 40,700 points with the daily bonus, and I got to spin the wheel of destiny which seems to just chain cost 35,000 points.

    XCOM 2

    So start a game with the Long War 2 button on the bottom left, pick difficulty/ironman. Once in game hit esc, go to Edit Options. There is like 8 sub categories. Long War 2, Campaign, etc tabs have what you're looking for. I really hope that the infiltration mechanic stays fresh as it...

    Also think about the item shop to provide the counters needed. In regards to AM, a rapid early orchid can shit on him hard.

    Populate the foh chat channel inside Dota.. The rerolled channel needs to be retired. Just start idling in there/spread the word. Its the best we got in the way of community options.

    We should just return to generic foh chat channel. Just start joining it and we can populate it that way

    This is a pretty amazing visualization of Electromagnetic Radiation. It's pretty remarkable how little of it that we actually see, you can see the band in the middle. We are so awesome we have designed machines to detect all the rest of this shit. Quite incredible when you really start...

    DOTA 2

    Last hitting in Dota is hard, but remember. Its relative to your current skill. One of the things in my early Dota career that I would religiously keep track of for myself was my last hits at 10 minutes. There isn't a target number that is good or bad, but you do want to know if...

    Intrinsic can warn you away or encourage you to subject yourself to a game with me coaching if that ultimately does interest you. He played Razor once with me over his shoulder, and its definitely too fucking stressful for both parties to do every game, but I think if he got anything out of...

    Dark Souls

    Dark souls has a chose your own difficulty to it. If you pick all the most op shit you will crush anything. If you play some magicless rapier and shield it gets a lot harder. The games are literally as hard or easy as you want them to be once you understand that there is no balance between...

    DOTA 2

    Don't let 1k mmr players tell you how to play. They know as much about the game as you do, they are blind to plenty of things. Even if wards are perfect, they do not have the map awareness to take advantage. Hard support is not farming nothing and only buying wards for 50 minutes. You...

    DOTA 2

    Hard support will not win you games consistently at low mmr for a single reason. People literally don't group up to end the game at all. 5 man team wipe of the enemy? Separate and last hit in allied jungle. If you want to "support" in low tier, just play a scaling greedy caster with...

    Everspace (Space shooter)

    Its early access, also FTL can give you a random zone you just have to leave given the state of your stuff and the nature of the random. Also, the zone quests are still very light and very random. The lore, randomized zone quests, I'm sure will be more common and more fleshed out by...

    I have more or less ignored the pilot perks in favor of the interceptor perks, and have yet to complete the interceptors set. I think I have leveled all the pilot perks to just 1, and left them there. I think the scout and gunship are probably something you should pick up after you get a...

    The only thing I'm reasonably certain scanning probes do not ping, are Freighter Wrecks. However, their design is visually noticeable and if you fly near enough they do get tagged. I fire probes on every map, first if the interceptors come quickly, a rough exploration might leave you...

    Overwatch

    Ranking systems are never satisfactory to people. The important thing about it is if players are actually being ranked with like skill players that result in 50% winrate. The only players that hold on to 52-54-60+ or greater winrates must exist in the top percentiles. Watching that video...

    Yes, all the perk buying and blueprints are just through playing through time. Although some blueprints might require killing specific baddies in later sectors. I've only played on normal. The best weapons are basically the best ones you like and loot on any given run. You do probably...

    So, easiest way is to throw steam into big picture with your controller active. Find Everspace, when you select it there is configure game, and a section for the steam controller will be there. Once in the configuration, select browse configs and find mine in the community tab on the...

    Here is my custom steam controller config for this game. I've played like 20 hours with it, and don't feel compelled to rebind. Rocket league inspired in the sense that I attempted to keep your fingers always on the important controls in combat. ID: 828662669
