    Wow Mugello is a great car track too! I'm sure the teams hate it now though and we'll never go back.

    What did you just read?

    Reread Renegade: (The Spiral Wars Book 1) and enjoyed it much more this time. Love the ship details like which parts become floor and wall when under accel or with the crew cylinder spinning, or at dock. Was an interesting take on elite soldiers adapting to new roles. When they are used to...

    Archeage

    I got a youtube ad for this during watching :emoji_owl: I'm guessing this is the current expansion for the original? Lovely music and art but the lighting has that flat anime look. Maybe using unreal will help with that.

    Overwatch

    Now and then they will show pro teams with voice, and you can see why flanks / surrounds are so effective. Voice is so noisy they can't even tell they are being shot at from an off angle. None of it is even necessary. REIN REIN REIN REIN etc. That and some of the teams playing in bright...

    Conan Exiles

    BTW if you want good companion AI, I recommend Testerie's Better Thralls mod. It lets more follow you around and such. My own bouncy castle mod is good for preventing fall damage on thralls as they are stupid and will dive off cliffs sometimes.

    Conan Exiles

    I know modders were working on city stuff to make things feel a bit more alive. I don't know how far they got. The main AI problem I have is putting archers up at the crenellations and they either dumbly shoot the stone or run down into the castle to get stuck at the gate instead of just firing.

    Conan Exiles

    They've expanded the map a few times and released a bunch of DLC. No idea what this new thing will be. I'm guessing it might be the return of Thoth Amon but I dunno. I've got a server up. Zette's funland, but not sure if I'm doing that or empyrion this weekend. msg me for sekret password if...

    https://www.conanexiles.com/ Some kind of timer thing, because we all love these I've been getting the urge to chop some trees and bonk some thrall nogginses. My fave mod, the permanent death mod, is busted atm so that's kind of a bummer.

    There's definitely something really fundamentally broken about damage / armor / gear. I thought for awhile that it was a bug in the scaling down stuff, but I've started noticing it on Onderon after doing dozens of dailies fighting the same stuff at equal level. Some days I do 2 or 3 abilities...

    The Astronomy Thread

    I remember us talking in here about the big energies involved in hitting tiny grains of dust or gas while going up near C. A book I just read (scifi) had a cool thing where they ambushed a big arkship (like a 30 mile long asteroid hollowed out) by pumping gas out of a gas giant into the path of...

    So it is wayyyy too hot to be running my empyrion server so I decided to try to wade through their forums and try to figure out why I crash constantly since they seem to be unwilling to let people debug it on their own. Turns out windows 10 / dx12 is listed as minimum spec. Which is odd...

    Haha maybe. BTW, if you guys crash in the first town, turn your vid options all the way up. Looks like a missing level of detail or something.

    Well when everyone is low level they are all gonna have a_white_shirt00 and a_pants00 so maybe in a day or so it will get a bit more flavour. I agree though, the west just can't do character art. I can live with it though as western games are better in every other way.

    Hmm I hit a spot in the first town that crashes me. Can't even get back in to try to look away from it. Well, no log and it doesn't allow debugger attach so I guess that's the end for me. Good world visuals, terrible base avatars as is pretty much the standard for most western made games. UI...

    This week Vinyales' brakes failed and he had to bail off. I'll bet they didn't salvage a single piece off that bike. It was totally trashed (and burned).

    So I hadn't really played my spicey sage in years and didn't really remember anything from it. The gear is 100% compatible with my main sorcerer so decided to blast through the 55+ stuff to try to remember what happened. I had some confusion around Revan and the Emperor and such. Anyway I got...
