Target stock updating. Just got a disk version.

Rofl jesus Tom.

I just purchased this but haven't played it (thanks, sales); can't wait to just get chain-murdered by shit zombies who just accidentally touch me randomly.

I really hope Kenshi 2 allows you to be more involved in the NPC cities, or for your city to be more NPC centric. Would be a pretty massive change. I have never used a mod for Kenshi; there's something about the vanilla experience that just feels... great.

So MH3 was a Wii exclusive, and has all the caveats of that. It was out for years before MH4 released on the 3ds. So the ultimate version of either is going to eclipse the original, but anything MH4 related is going to shit all over MH3. Which don't get me wrong, Tri was my jam back in the...

That sounds like Eagle's Cross xbows hah; it's more that I think you sort of peak at that skill level, with anything higher being negligible, and lower meaning less accuracy/etc. It's not so much a requirement as much as a recommendation. I will say though, if you take the heavy/eagle's cross...

Dustwiches require bread, so you'll need to set up that production. Wheatstraw grows like shit in the arid areas, but with large enough fields and high enough skill you'll be able to generate enough while your extra cactus turns into chewsticks in the meantime. For the tools thing, you will...

Just realized I had made almost the same post like 3 years ago:

Map is 100% static unless modded; though to be honest I don't think I've ever stopped to do any resource gathering when I'm running around murdering the holy nation, so possible it's just not a common thing? Either way, I don't think I've ever seen a gatherable stone node.

I tend to fall into very similar habits with this game. I like starting near Squin, then building to the north east at the junction of blood swamp and desert near ninja outpost base. But yeah, you're in for a -rough- time solo; it's best to build up cats to buy everyone that hangs out at the...

They are absolutely hilariously broken sub 70. I enjoy getting them in my groups. Great story overall imo; the final boss being sort of conjured still works out. Also hoooly shit on either Yoshitaka Amano doing some hardcore design, or people aping the absolute shit out of him. the 2nd and...

Thad from Blue Mountain State in another show? Sure.

Yeah; if it's how they have defined their ingress and is entirely DC based? Dunno if they can scale out (I mean, you can set up aws dx links per cage and run ipsec through them, then host a firewall like paloalto and direct traffic that way... but that's not a day one fix, that's a couple of...

Yeah the queue itself is just a thing until they can spin up more datacenters. I'm actually curious if they even have the rackspace available (the post referenced earlier in the thread where it is roughly ~20 servers to build a world) - depending on if they are using modular blade chassis or...

No idea; I never got onto the classic wow bandwagon that people thought was good. Wrath > * for WoW. But I imagine so since they have hour+ queues for normal servers around xpac launches as well. YoshiP has been pretty transparent in the fact that their login servers are logical datacenter...

It isn't "throw shit into the cloud and be good" - they are literally having issues where they do not have enough hardware to handle people logging in, and it's causing all the queue issues like timeouts/etc. If they put this into either GCP, AWS, or Azure, they could scale it as needs dictate...

How they haven't leveraged a cloud provider to handle the login queue, just to avoid the 2002/etc errors, is beyond me. You don't need hardware to put people into a queue.

They learned the way to avoid being kicked from the game while standing still doing emotes long, long, long ago. The true zen masters of shithattery.

I was 90 before the last zone landed; did exactly 1 msq roulette and one leveling roulette. Was rested/10% fc buff for the entire ride; probably could have gotten away with not doing those roulettes with all the final zone quests at 89. Really good expansion; shit kicks into gear from like...

Yeah; I don't feel bad about using the ahk stuff at all honestly. Tons of people are abusing it, and not doing it myself is just being last. I'm basically Lance Armstrong.

Didn't seem to make me step forward, but I didn't test it extensively. I just know I bit the bullet with it trying to chat to a linkshell and came back several hours later still online. So on the MSQ, the whole bit with

Set up an autohotkey script that hits the 'w' key every minute (60000) - then, hit enter into a chat window. You will type w's endlessly, but it won't log you out. Went afk for like 6 hours earlier on Sunday because fuuuuuuck dealing with 9k queues when I can actually play after passing out on...

it also highlights kind of a design decision they probably made in the early days and how it doesn't work for launch events with the current subscriber population. It's pretty clear each datacenter has a "max" number of players it can support, but because the number fluctuates, they decided to...

I've heard we have some chip manufacturing being set up in Texas, but that's at least 2+ years away at best. Zero help in the short term hah.

It depends on how fast you get back on. The auth token that loads you into the queue expires after a pretty short period; if you get 2002'd and log right back in, you keep your spot. If you wait a minute or two you lose it and have to start fresh. Multiple in my FC confirm the behavior...

Damn, the 83 dungeon just goes right for the jugular.

Not shocked that it's the highest login count since release; just really sucks it happened during a major chip shortage. Also, it appears that the cutscene trick to stay logged in doesn't work anymore, or I just got really unlucky. Left for -32- minutes and was back at login while in a cutscene =/

It's likely just the ex.dat files for all the shit that is changing in the base game; I don't think any assets/etc have been put up. Some reddit thread I glanced at mentioned 10pm ET-1am ET for the start time of when the actual expac download is available

Was a decent watch; I really like the two canadian guys they occasionally get (Colin and the guy who does matte paintings) whenever they are on. I actually got bored by the new Dune pretty quickly, and then it fell of HBOmax while I had it paused in my browser haha. Maybe 20 minutes in; just...

What kills multiplayer games? (I hope you meant MMOs, given the forum area this was posted in) Devs thinking they know their playerbase and they do not. See: New World Goals that rely on incredibly grindy mechanics with no tangible progression whilst grinding Bot-friendly resource farming...

It's always confused me why people clamor for this type of game. Like, the "wolves" want sheep to be there, but if the only incentive to be there is to be sheep, people won't play. It's a strange cycle that I don't think all these hardcore "pvpers" (read: people who enjoy ganking lower...

Hah, the people hoarding HQ mats hoping they still give a bonus are in for a sad time. I approve of literally all those changes, though the xp resets are going to make me do some hoops prior to release so I'm not doing 99% of a level again after 6.0 hits.

Their immediate fear is that other people become empowered by him getting off. Hasn't that shithead Lemon already said "What's next, people protecting their homes, their country?" I would be kind of surprised if this didn't just go to a mistrial and never go anywhere else, so the headlines...

I literally paid to rewatch Enemy Mine like 2-3 months ago. It's one of my favorite movies from my childhood. I enjoyed the whole thing through again; it's dated in a lot of ways like the guys point out, but it's still a pretty decent watch. Definitely some nostalgia mixed in but it was good...

The GIlbert Godfried episode might be good, but oh man, the first 20m sounded like an old man lost in an airport; couldn't go past. Liking the snoop dogg episode thus far (listening while doing FFXIV shit) but it sounds like 50% promotion vs. conversation. Only 1.2 hours in though so that...

Yeah I ended up completing all the quests available while I was leveling other jobs after I got whm to 80. Being part of the bleeding edge during the initial push at the pre-order release date (Dec 3rd) mostly only gives you great benefits in that you can beat whatever "trial" is at the end of...

It has been typically the same thing each xpack. Beast tribes and leves drop down to 10k xp per for anything at old cap (collectibles and regular quests as well) to prompt you to do the new stuff,and I want to say any scripts are also dropped down to like.. 5? Or something per eat old turn in...

Yeah this messes up my plans a bit; my boss is typically chill though so I can probably move it forward, but it sucks because I have moved on-call rotations and shit specifically to not be the primary recipient during that week. But, I have a lot more faith in the FF team to not release a pile...

Maybe not exactly a fall anime, but I saw the MHA: World's Heroes or whatever movie yesterday. Holy shit, it was just ridiculously bad, but very much in a "lets make fun of this retarded shit" kind of bad way. No idea how they could swing that much lower than Heroes Rising, but they...

The only real upside is that they can probably easily track down transactions of massive size, and the sender, since everything is bound to the name of the player and thus the account. Stuff that was spent on mats/the tradeboard though... that shit is just in circulation now.
