I'm doing TF2 and MW Remaster. Gonna buy COD: IW for the kid. Zero interest in it outside single player, unless it is a huge digression from recent COD MP, which has gone way downhill since the MW1,2 and BlackOps 1,2 days.

What FPS have you purchased or most certainly planning to purchase this winter? Oh and Gears is 3rd Person, but it definitely competes with the other games for multiplayer and single player hours.

Yeah damn. I loved it. And I usually force myself to slog through the Single Player on most games, just because. Almost every level has a different unique twist, and they integrated the wall running into every map so well. I might actually go back through on max difficulty. I get a Half Life 2...

The RCP average is only Clinton +1.3 right now: RealClearPolitics - Election 2016 - General Election: Trump vs. Clinton Although 538 still has Donald at around 28% chance to win: http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/

Parties are fine. The problem is our electoral system guarantees there can only be 2 viable parties. One possible way to have multiple viable parties.

Getting pre-order at midnight. Better than BF1 or any new COD IMHO. I'm on Xbox one if anyone want to group up. Only other thing I'm remotely interested in the near future, MP-wise, is the MW4 remaster. Waiting for discounted price though.

Damn. This album is amazing in entirety. Some of it reminds me of the Fez Soundtrack. That cold and distant feeling. Other parts are totally different. Some parts sound like Joy Division but updated. In the future seems like this album will be a milestone ...

Damn, you guys got me addicted to Carpenter Brut. They look fucking badass live:

538 says no: http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/ RCP says no: RealClearPolitics - Election 2016 - General Election: Trump vs. Clinton 270 shows massive Hillary advantage: 2016 Election: Clinton vs. Trump Trump will lose unless some miracle happens and/or Hillary dies.

Gonna make a wild guess that white 30-40 will win ...

Here's Oliver Stone on O'Reilly Factor. Weird that fairly right-wing (limited government) guys like O'Reilly are totally cool with mass surveillance, but Stone (an admittedly left wing guy) is not. He even kinda throws Obama under the bus in the movie. Anyway, its a pretty interesting interview.

Hmm yeah, I'd take anything the House Intelligence Committee says with a giant boulder of salt. Especially where it concerns government leaks or fuck ups.

Saw this. Pretty decent imho. I program for a living and none of the "hacker scenes" jumped out as being ridiculous. They didn't spend much time on that stuff anyway, which is good. Stone was able to portray the depth of Big Brother surveillance without going into tech jargon. It's better than...

Yeah, kinda interested in more details on why the government has such a hard on for putting ITT out of business. No articles really go in depth. I work with a lot of people from Full Sail (the entertainment / gaming industry version of ITT) and no complaints. They can do their jobs for the most...

Yeah, same here. This was kinda underwhelming after coming out of the TF2 beta. TF is so playable out of the box, even with base guns and no unlocks. IIRC it kinda has always been the case with BF series - guns for most classes suck until you get unlocks. Also, target visibility was never good...

Whoever makes articles into 20 page slideshows needs higher education in "How to be Hit in The Face With a Baseball Bat, Repeatedly 101". This is one of the most annoying trends ever. :eek:

Wait, what? Passives are the best. I'll take mostly passives plz. A dozen situational active abilities sucks ...

So, finally got into a game on Xbox One, after the endless disconnects and errors. The Titanfall 2 alpha is just so superior in every possible respect I have zero interest in purchasing this. :eek:

Is it really that bad? Its got a "Mostly Positive" on Steam reviews. 75 Metacritic isn't too bad either for a sort-of niche game. Master of Orion on Steam Although Stellaris does have "Very Positive" on Steam and more reviews. 78 Metacritic. Stellaris on Steam

Have they talked about diminishing returns on CC yet? There's a single class with at least 2 ranged pulls, a ranged snare, and 2 ways to AOE stun / knockdown ... :eek:

Just play single player until you get used to it. Takes a while. I did that transition a few years back.

Lafear AKA Dirty Black. He says: "If you don't like his music, you a bitch". :eek: The pregnant women in the video makes it 11/10 imho.

A bit more on the changes due to feedback on this reddit thread. They are addressing most gripes. Looks like a couple Respawn employees post there too: We’ll be tuning air speed and wall-running speed to be faster. Players should once again accumulate and retain more speed when chaining...

+ The TTK might be faster maybe because its easier to shoot people now (not running quite so fast). Guns could be adjusted back a slight bit though. The TTK is still much higher than COD or BF (which are near insta-gib). + I'm fine with the movement. You are still more mobile than in BF, COD...

Ehh no Attrition? That was the most popular mode by far. :eek:

^ Looks like matchmaking suddenly went a little wonky a few hours ago. It takes a while. Was fast before that ...

Tried it out finally. - Set your control scheme to "classic" and the controls feel almost exactly like TF1. - The CAR SMG shoots just like it did before, which quite nice. Out of the box with no unlocks the gun is awesome. I hate it when guns are shit without leveling them for mods unlocks. -...

Bleh, because Origin. :( Titanfall 2 for PC Download | Origin Games Was planning on doing this on Xbox One anyway. It does seem weird to release near BF1 though. Personally, I don't remember it being like that. Got to prestige 5 (only game I have ever prestiged in). Creeps kills were...

^ Oh yeah, Nailbomb. That was a side project of Max Cavalera from Sepultura. Album was decent IIRC. Gonna have to go back and listen. Some related obligatory Sepultura in metal thread. If you aren't familiar with Sepultura, listen to all of Beneath the Remains, Arise, and Chaos A.D...

Trivia quiz. Did you know this was a cover of the 60's band that did "I'm your Venus, I'm your fire"? :p Maybe one of the best tracks on Bleach. If you were a kid in the 80's you probably remember the Bananrama version on MTV.

Kurt cited the Pixies as a huge influence, but I wouldn't consider them in any way lumped in with the "grunge" sound. I guess they are also under the generic "90's alt rock" term, but that also includes Tool, Primus, RATM, etc. Pretty much any rock band that got airplay on 90's alt-rock radio...

Went back and listened to their entire discography at work a few months back. Gotta say, I enjoyed Bleach and Incesticide the most. I don't think I appreciated Bleach as much as I should have back in the day.

I LOL-ed way too hard at this. Necro thread from 2003 and some guy named PeanutGalaxy said he "spent $35k on Star Citizen". :p

SynthWave BestWave. Mainly listening to extreme metal and SynthWave lately. Not sure the connection, if any ...

Assuming they changed the mob HP vs Player Damage ratios from EQ the video game? Otherwise it would take 100+ dice rolls to kill the average level 60 mob and 1000+ dice rolls to kill raid bosses ...
