    Overwatch

    How can you make something with an automated turret fun without a MAJOR rework?

    XCOM 2

    On the second mission, you face spread out packs of a Sectoid & Trooper. On the first, you have nothing but rookies without gear. On top of that, both packs tend to spawn on top of each other...so you have to pull 5 Troopers & an Officer. If you could somehow throw grenades at the same time...

    XCOM 2

    The game is poorly tuned at the beginning, I'll give you that. The biggest hangup for me on Commander was getting someone to SGT by mission 3 so that I could get the squad increase. I don't think there's any reason for that to be tied to soldier rank considering it's absolutely imperative you...

    XCOM 2

    There was a big thread on the forums about the beta for the game, and in it people were complaining that it was too easy to cheese the game. Basically you just bait packs with a rookie, like I said. Getting two turns to attack every pack is pretty broken, and I don't think anybody would enjoy...

    XCOM 2

    It's necessary or you can cheese the game. I don't recall exactly but I think it involves maneuvering a rookie into a patrol path while you have your squad on overwatch, so that you in effect get two turns to kill off a pack. The time limits make the game fun too... there are some missions...

    XCOM 2

    There's something to be said about the RNG in this game, and others. Our brains are hardwired in a certain way that makes us susceptible to gambling. Almost everything in life is based upon chance, such as stocks, promotions, and success/failure in general whether it be your occupation or...

    XCOM 2

    I'm learning the hard way you can't rush things in this game. I got a really good start, was able to hack a tower on the second level and get 20 alloys. That let me tech into plate like RIGHT off the bat. First retaliation mission...stun lancer knocks my medic unconscious and the rest die...

    XCOM 2

    The only thing I dislike is starting a new campaign and getting four chicks with butch cuts and flat tops. Insta-restart. Seems like it happens so fucking often too, like getting four females alone is 6.25%. Then to make them all ugly as hell, well... yeah. I get fucked by the RNG in...

    Are you really able to get far enough away to guarantee that you won't get flanked?

    XCOM 2

    Use a grenadier to blow away cover & armor, then snipe. Sniper is probably the easiest class to keep alive since they are an entire map away. The only real danger to them is the extraction missions, and them not being able to reach the EVAC on time and getting captured. If you want to rush...

    XCOM 2

    I love how unforgiving this game is. It's the Dark Souls of the turn-based strategy world. The only thing really comparable is the Total War series, but even on the highest difficulties that game is fucking cake due to the limitations of the AI. TW: Warhammer does look pretty amazing though...

    XCOM 2

    Snipers are fucking fantastic if you mod their weapon and them ammunition, like the +1 damage & burning ammo. The only problem is when you start moving into a building and your sharpshooter is on a building on the back of the map, but god damn if 'Death From Above' isn't one of the best...

    This ironman campaign, I had a randomly generated Walter White clone in my crew that was promoted to heavy gunner. It couldn't have been more fitting having WW with the minigun and grenade launcher... Now I just need a specialist Gus.

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    Is the game supposed to be this easy? I literally pulled the entire instance of South Anchor and AoE'd the mobs down in a few seconds, with almost no threat of dying.

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    Destroyer is the least played class, with BM being the highest according to some parses. Mushin is the right server?

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    Forcemaster and Destroyer were the two classes I would consider. Are either overplayed? Which do you guys find more enjoyable. ...and if I play an FM do I have to choose the Keebler Elf race????

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    I played this game through the tutorial levels and just didn't like it. You guys seem pretty attached, should I give it another shot?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Is this expansion going to reverse, or address some of the awful changes introduced recently? Namely the complete isolation of the player from the gameworld. 'Garrisonizard' - I choose you! The absolutely rampant botting in BGs? If it does, I might be interested in re-subbing. If not, I...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yes, it's a talent that increases ALL physical and nature damage taken, by the target, by 10%. A lot of Shaman are bitching because every Enhancement would be forced to take it because it's just so much better than anything else could possibly be. As a former Enhance Shaman (haven't played...

    League Of Legends

    Anyone level 22 or lower that wants to group with someone new to the game, but was a very, very good and competitive dota2/hon player? I have a pretty good winrate, can hold my own in any role, but I'd love to pick up new tips and improve while grouping with some of you guys. My skype is...

    Anyone else here a founder that wants to Skype/Group during the events so that we can learn and figure out the classes a wee-bit faster and stick it to the devs? My skype is CNV2855.

    Crowfall

    Combat is very visceral as far as bodies actually having weight. You can't strafe and skate around as if you're character is floating on air, if you're running straight it takes time to turn and if you leap... you're pretty much feel like a fully armored axe-wielding champion jumping 10 feet...

    Florida is a shithole

    Key West and southern Florida is awesome if you enjoy diving. Used to vacation in the Marco Island/Isle of Capri area every year with a house on the river 2 minutes from the ocean. Saw manatees, jewfish, caught barracuda, tarpon, and snook. Probably no better fishing in the world.

    When are Victims able to be present at criminal proceedings?

    If a victim is otherwise harmed by multiple suspects, and an investigation begins. All of the suspects are apprehended, bond is set, and the criminals are brought into custody. They roll over on each other and plea, so there's probably no court or testimony. What proceedings are there that...

    Star Trek - Into Darkness

    I wasn't asking why the Klingon guns didn't blow up the Enterprise, obviously it was out of range. I'm just saying that it doesn't make any sense for the man, "in charge", to act in such a manner so subvertly when he could accomplish so much more, without fucking it up, by acting obvertly...

    Star Trek - Into Darkness

    THIS MOVIE MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE. Namely, everything having to do with Admiral Marcus. He's going to start a war... ok, why? His big advantage is...one ship? To protect Earth from the infinity of space? Ok. But why, oh why, would he destroy the crew of the Enterprise. He's the fucking...

    Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance Forever

    Possibly the best RTS that has been released in the past decade, and was probably ahead of its time/not marketed correctly. The multiplayer functionality was downright horrible, so a team took it upon themselves to redo everything the game was lacking and now it's up and running with a very...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I got a THM to 12 and it's OK. There's really not as many abilities as I'd like, and combat is WAY too easy. I'm thinking of rerolling to warrior; how do you guys rate melee vs ranged. Is tanking fun? I really don't want to sit in queues forever as DPS. I did get a sleep spell which is...

    And is Thaurmaturge > White Mage a possible combination? Just watched a Yogscast and he says Archer is probably the most boring, stale, piece of shit, horrible class ever designed. So that's that.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Going to make a character when I get home. I am only interested in the three magic classes and archer. Can someone please share the differences between them? I understand the Arcanist is a pet class, and that probably interests me the least. I'm kind of concerned about people saying that...

    The NSA watches you poop.

    The NSA watches you poop.

    Rand isn't my congressman but I wrote him an e-mail last week after the resolution curbing NSA phone surveillance funding was narrowly defeated, and got this response: This man needs wins the presidential nomination in 2016.
