I camped Bergurgle a year or so ago on live during a bonus spawn and with zero competition. Was still a huge pain in the ass that took an entire weekend of getting stuff done around the house while killing the PH every half hour. I can't believe they can't widened some of the old epic bottlenecks.

Competitively playing on Yelinak is like organizing watch parties for reruns of Simpsons.

After seeing these pics, I stand by my expert analysis.

thanks. Linking prime and origin and claiming it was pretty painless. Doubt I'll ever play it though.

pretentious.

I don't know what is gained from radio telescopes, but my guess is that the next big space telescope will relate to nearby asteroids. Identifying high-value asteroids or asteroids that risk space missions, specifically.

Why on the moon?

Speaking of Spaceship's imminent success

I agree that they should've released two pics at the start, one that was a "deep field" pic and one that was a "near field" pic like looking at Alpha Centauri or Andromeda. I'm just a layman but my understanding is that JWST is designed to see very far away objects instead of "nearby" objects...

That's cool. Random numbers forming loops that can be controlled is a neat property. Good luck getting 99 convicts to follow directions from a nerd. Similar problem of numerical confusion:

Hubble vs Webb. Note that this exposure took weeks with hubble and 12 hours with Webb

The cool part about deep field is that they took the darkest part of the sky and peered into it, seeing an explosion of galaxies. Some context of how invisible the new Webb's deep field was with hubble would be useful.

leaked pic that they are going to reveal

Correct. There used to be but they stopped that a few years ago and have said there are no plans to re-enable it.

Should is a really important word there. Old EQ addicts should have access to relatively bot-free servers and a semi-aggressive GM staff that professionally beats down cheaters like people around the world should have access to clean water as an essential human right. Just like everything else...

As a third party, even in this totally contrived and not realistic scenario the drama is totally worth how unprofessional it is. And this is a better scenario than the developers being disaffected and being happy to let the game go to shit because their game and tech ignorant boardmembers aren't...

I agree. If they are sure that a person is using cheat programs with enough confidence to permanently ban them, they should publicly post the banned account's characters and all the guilds they were in.

Having fun with Space Exploration + Krastorio2. I haven't gotten to space yet so I guess I'm just having fun with Krastorio2. I'm disappointed there's not an equivalent to FactorioBox Maps for SE+K2 (and other mods that add tiles) or I could show off my spaghetti.

Yeah, gotta imagine AAs will also be easy to get compared to other TLPs. Interested to hear where groups are getting their gear at 55 also.

I know nothing about the internals of DPG but this rings the most true to me. These kinds of developer outfits are driven by individual developer's motivation to do something more than a cohesive strategy passed down from management. And that's typically a good thing with this anti-cheat move...

I don't use any of the programs people are getting banned for but it's not as simple as "don't cheat". Many people using MacroQuest are playing a fundamentally different and very fun game than the designed EQ experience. Effective boxing of 3+ characters is pretty miserable without something...

I knew EQ2 was a mistake.

Secret's post earlier in this thread goes into detail on one mechanism they may still use for detection. That information discusses not just the .exe, but the other libraries that get linked at runtime. But that's an incomplete picture of what they use. What they use is likely poorly understood...

Yeah but then you need to run a VM on your PC. I don't know if they'll get to a point where they start using the presence of vmware (or whatever) in action against your account, but it poses some risk whereas running show eq on another PC (which, for the record, I've never done so maybe it's...

Seems like they're mostly cracking down on show EQ and macroquest and leaving Gamparse, GINA, inner space boxer etc alone. If they start going after ISBoxer users they'll lose a lot of users without really hurting botting much. ISBoxer makes life easier for manual users than it does for someone...

You guys take dat dere celltech?

I'd be impressed if they had a heuristic detection system that cleanly segregated macroquest users from people running inner space boxer, programmable keyboards, autohotkey etc.

I want to sub to redguides to see the drama. I can't tell if only the chaff is getting hit and all the real botters are using custom compiled solutions that don't trigger DPGs library searches or if being a macroquest user is becoming increasingly infeasible. I still wish that when they...

I liked asmongold vids because when someone like honest trailers producing high quality content what i really need is some guy putting his two cents in so I know what to think of it.

I hear rampant is rough on your UPS and misbehaves when you start maintaining bases on multiple worlds, but i really like the idea of it and the other evolution mods.
