    New Progression Server confirmed

    Roll something on Phinny, play casual for a while. 3 months of classic is still plenty of time to get to 50 even at a super lazy pace. If by the time February rolls around and Kunark is launching on Phinny and there's no sign of a RF/LJ merge and Velious release I'd say it's probably time to...

    Goddamnit, do any of these panels not have crippling backlight issues yet? Looks like even the updated Acer/Asus offerings like a 50/50 if the thing is usable or not.

    You'll see 10Gb on consumer grade products before the end of the decade. You'll be surprised how much everyday bandwidth requirements are going to skyrock as 4k gets wider and wider adoption. Shit, we have maintenance coming soon add a 2nd 10Gb card to most of our nodes cause our storage...

    Someone convince me not to buy this Acer 1440p 144hz thing. Is the QC really that bad? Is there another 1440p 144hz option on the horizon I haven't heard about?

    Anyone seen any good deals on headphones anywhere? Between newegg being broken and Amazon showing me page after page of garbage ear buds when I specifically am looking for PC headphones/powered headphones I can't find shit.

    Gonna be a real interesting situation for many people I'd wager. The idea of playing through classic again right now and doing another level grind just sounds like aids, so I'll probably not do much more than mess around very casually on Phinny. But from the sounds of it LJ is going to be a...

    It sort of works in Firefox, but Chrome is 100% useless. Firefox fails to view carts and most account page info though, just gives you a 404 nutrend.com error. Way to go newegg.

    Both LJ are RF are going to be ghost towns for sure. The only way this whole thing makes sense is if they have a merge planned for the Velious launch.

    How are gigabyte motherboards? I've always had an Asus, but the current selection of the 1151 socket Asus boards are all retarded looking and have their shitty REPBLIK OF GAMURRRRZZZ shit plastered all over them. GIGABYTE GA-Z170X-UD5 s USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard - Newegg.com...

    Idea sounded cool. Watched Dickhammer try and refine or craft or something with the wood he had gathered, a stack of like 350 or so, and it was just a solid 10 minutes of a green progress bar and waiting. Interest in game instantly killed.

    My money is on Lockjaw getting a "vote" (that is 100% gonna pass regardless of voting) to unlock Velious early, then them merging LJ and RF at the end of the year when the population is tanked with a Velious release in early january.

    Goddmanit, I agree with Column. This shit is turning to hot garbage the longer it goes. She can lift cars in one episode, then she gets overpowered and knocked out by support group rejects? What the fuck ever. Writing is just getting lazy. The whole comic book trope shit of we can't kill the...

    Hearthstone

    The "competitive" scene in this game is such a joke. Druid vs druid finals decided by darnassus aspirant and a lightwell out of shredders. Esports indeed.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Actual repeaters are mostly garbage, as you put them near the edge of an existing signal (so it already has a weak signal to begin with), then it just broadcasts it's own network from there and funnels it all back through the initial network. Adds more layers to the wireless connection and in...

    If running a physical ethernet there isn't an option give one of the powerlines a try. They come in pairs, plug A to to router and electric there, B in to electric in the room you need internet it. It hijacks part of the copper already in your wall to bring "wired" internet to remote rooms. Once...

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    You can set up another access point to use the same SSID/password as your main network and like 99% of devices will connect to whichever source has the stronger signal. I'm not a big fan of wireless repeaters personally (throughput issues), so if you can get any kind of hard line over to that...

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Any wireless router will have ~4 ethernet ports on the back of it. Just be sure you check the specs on the wireless ones and don't order some pile of junk without gigabit ports or you'll hate your life. You DO need a router of some kind, switches aren't capable of doing what you want to do, and...

    The Division

    I don't know what else there is to it, just felt like every time they showed more of it it had shrunk more in scale, then the demo thing at PAX was just pure pvp combat. There was some mechanic with a helicopter to escape with at the end, and you could turn on your teammates if you wanted to to...

    The Division

    PC version will obviously be best version, but does anyone really even know what this game is at this point? I played it at PAX and the demo we had was just a 4v4 arena deathmatch sort of thing. Attach chainsaws to the guns and it would have been Gears of War. Is there even any persistence left...

    Yea I don't even know man. It blows me away just how much progress they've lost going from mod to the standalone, and just how much time has passed without them gettinganywherewith it. Last update on the new renderer (that is supposed to fix the performance being garbage, and allow for zombies...

    DayZ, Arma2, Arma3

    Nope, literally nothing. They've added more dress-up options, and a sort of working truck. Zombies have been removed entirely due to "peformance" issues. The magical renderer update is nowhere in sight yet.

    First Isaac run on a new file, first boss in monstro in a tiny shrunken room that has barely enough room for him to fit in. A+, can already tell it's gonna suck another 200 hours out of me.

    Battleborn

    Overwatch is much closer to TF2, while thing is more of a traditional MOBA that just happens to be an fps. I think it'll wind up being relatively different markets. The real question is if Gigantic is going to be able to get off the ground at all.

    Lirik makes closer to 35k/month from subs. The amount of cash that kid is rolling in is insane.

    Subs are 5$ yea, but the least public figures anyone got on how it breaks down is about a 50/50 split with Twitch, depending on your partnership deal.

    If someone is pulling a consistent 4k viewers on their stream they are making north of 50k/year off it. There's unbelievable money to be made in Twitch if you can build any kind of audience. Dudes like Summit are banking couple hundred thousand a year, and Lirik may actually be at a million...

    Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide

    They've fixed multiple other pathing exploits on maps previously, so no reason to think they won't fix magnus again(for like the 4th time). I don't really see how sitting in the ammo room as a choke point is anywhere near a cheese though, as making a choke point and shield wall is basically 99%...
