    Don't Starve (similar to survival minecraft)

    They need to take out gold tools. Gold is infinite. Flint is not. I ran out of flint and had a blast exploring every fucking island looking for a couple of flint on the ground. I kept thinking it was an awesome mechanic. Forcing you to go out and scavenge is great in a survival game. Then I...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Thanks for all the gearing tips in the last couple pages. Not sure I'll have the patience to do all that but at least now I have a plan. Some questions about druid feral/tank: 1)Is it me or is a tank spe much better than a feral spe for leveling? Not even counting dungeon Q time, just...

    So the only thing I can do right now if I don't want to waste JP is turn it into honor?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Can someone clarify/confirm this: My druid (tank/86) is at 4000/4000 JP and I need to figure out what to spend points on. The best rewards I can get with justice points is ilevel 450 / level 90 blue gear right? How does that compare to quest rewards in the 89/90 zones or heroic blue drops? Is...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Even if you did not like Scholo because of the trash vs. boss vs. reward ratio you gotta mourn the loss of variety. It was 98% tunneled dungeons before and even if I, too, would very rarely queue for ST or Scholo I did enjoy them immensely when I actually did them with friends. Maybe 2 or 3...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Can someone tell me what a gear grind to get to the level required by the first 10 man looks like? Once I hit 90 can I grind dungeons and move onto heroics? Can I then grind heroics to gear up for raids? Or is the point (forget what they are - justice points maybe?) reward per dungeon limited...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Anything that imposes a hard limit on how much gear I can get on a per day basis is terrible imo. The valor grind is limited to X points a day I assume? I don't see how that's any better. I don't mind grinding too much but I do mind being told I can't even grind as much as I want. I have to...

    They already said the largest plots will be only as big as a medium map in SC4. And the limits are enforced (IIRC in SC4 you could go beyond the city limits and keep building somehow? been a while).

    XCOM Enemy Unknown

    It's mostly luck, it seems to me. I kept getting SGT Supports as rewards for the abductions in countries I had to reduce panic in on my second game. I had 4 extra supports that I was never going to use by the end of month 2 or so. I don't care about losing countries if it's part of the game. I...

    XCOM Enemy Unknown

    What does marathon do exactly? Does it mean panic rises more slowly, buildings cost more etc...? And how would one go about getting Second Wave to trigger without beating the game. Is it as simple as some .ini setting somewhere? ** Also got a couple questions - how the hell do people...

    Minecraft

    Gotta give admins a break sometimes. Seems like they both are trying to provide the community with what you said - a vanilla/survival/unaltered server. Sometimes they have to use their godly powers though and make a call. Can't always be perfect.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Even if items had generally no value (which is bullshit) gold does. So do BOA items for a new monk for example. Having to farm justice points for every set piece takes a fuck load of time and effort.

    How long has steam allowed to choose install drives/paths? I just had to reinstall XCOM and noticed I can installed on different drives. Is that new or did I plain miss the feature for years?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Quick question - a friend of mine just started WOW again and came back to a hacked account (even though he had the authenticator installed on his phone, too). He contacted customer service (EU) and they refunded him with a couple shitty items and 50 gold pieces, claiming they do not keep records...

    Indie Games

    It's not bad I guess. The only use seems, to me, to focus on rooms that are populated. But since I focus on guns 100% of the time anyway (I see no reason not to), it's actually quite useless. I am at my 5th sector and I have yet to see any kind of strategy in combat now that I think about it...

    E-Sim: World Sim Browser MMOG - Always Looking For New Players

    Didn't realize Q1 weapons took out the -50% penalty on top of the 20% bonus to dmg. I blew my 40monies on guns and did a lot more damage than I thought I could @ about 550 per berserks.

    The Slugs ability lets me see red dots where enemy crew are even in nebula nodes. And even if the slug is on my ship. It's like a scanner but you don't see the race or what they're doing - just a red dot of their location.

    More Qs on FTL: 1)If you explore a node covered by the rebels' advance, do you never get the node's "event"? So there is no point in taking the risk at all? 2)Are slugs bad fighters? Their description only hints at their telepathic abilities with no combat drawbacks. I got 2 slugs from...

    Just started FTL. Without spoiling strategies (I want to figure them out myself) can someone give me some tips on what to spend my first scraps on? I tend to make it out of the first sector and restart just to test things out. So far I've been focusing on getting 2 extra crew (I want 1 pilot, 1...

    Did anyone actually like Organ Trail btw? I read a lot of good things about it but I found it very bland, linear and repetitive myself. There is almost no "make a decision" situation. The text based frames are not very well written. The number of items seems very limited (I'm about 2/3 of the...

    I might have clicked more than one sig to see people's eSim names. I might have filled one the form out randomly but could swear I saw Aogo's handle when I clicked your sig! I am not crazy. There were also ants. Crawling in and out. Of places. Bad places. Dear lord the ants.

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    This $2M goal seems completely ridiculous to me. The feature list on the KS page did not seem to show much more than what the originals had. The gfx and physics engines can probably consume any amount of money ever I guess. Hope this reaches the goal though.

    I have mIRC that's no problem. Was on for a bit earlier but there wasn't anything going on. I actually don't understand the point. I assume eSIM is like other browser games I played before - you are limited to a few actions each day and then you come back a day later to see what happened...

    I joined today. (edit - under Kaige) Followed the tutorial. Joined a non-Taiwanese company and made $19. Fought in the 2 battles available, ate all my food and fought some more. I assume I just do that for a few days until I get level 7, start earning gold to pay the 5G to join RRP - right...

    Minecraft

    Are you using any whitelisting plugin? Some of them allow you to whitelist dynamically - as opposed to having to wait for the server restart. DE whitelist (http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/dy...ect-whitelist/) I think is the one I used to use. Very easy to setup with mySQL online services (you...

    Tekkit provides a short burst of fun. A new, fresh Minecraft experience that amazes for a few days and then quickly frustrates. It requires one to be experienced with vanilla MC and somewhat tired of it. If it catches you in that period of time after you've had enough of vanilla for a while...

    Iirc certain dungeons at certain levels it would be acceptable for a tank to outdmg everyone. Short aoe fights = yummy for tanks. Thats before max level though. I remember tons of people slacking in heroics but, as a tank, you will have no issue kicking or leaving groups that you dislike.

    Wasn't it more like he stole and ripped the whole idea (when Triple Town was almost ready) from a small dev without the means to legally fight for his original concept? Or at least not aggressively/quickly enough to stop Yeti Town from getting all the first release buzz. And then released just...
