    Mist Mostly Mightily Blames Other People or MMMBOP for short.

    Can update more tomorrow (going to bed fucking anesthesia still hasn't worn off and I feel stoned as shit), but the short story is that I went to Best Buy and got a SB6190 and it has been stable for over two hours without an issue. Still waiting to see if it holds until tomorrow.

    Assassin's Creed (2016)

    Yeah the trailer music left something to be desired, seems like there are a number of any Kanye West songs that could have been better if that is what they really wanted to use. Also seems like a stupid excuse for CGI and armchair directing to have him in some fucking robot arm harness acting...

    Mist Mostly Mightily Blames Other People or MMMBOP for short.

    It is hard to buy this, but every company is different. I hired and promoted plenty of Engineers during my time as manager. HR would always pull the "budget cycle" or "maximum % tercile increase" etc... It was their standard playbook, but there are always options and alternatives. Luckily my...

    Monster Hunter Series

    Dandain, man0warr, and at least 1 or 2 others are usually pretty heavy players. Me moreso on release and a month or two following. I tend to get like a squirrel and just move on to something else though.

    Not sure, tried checking Amazon orders butit wasn't on there. It is a SB6120, so I'd guess 4 years at least. And I may just buy a new one on Amazon as another test point (or go to Best Buy if I can pick one up locally since Amazon won't deliver until Saturday).

    Do you want to burn my signed Kingdoms of Amalur troll statue too? Could make a whole event out of it.

    Yeah my wife found a 12 year old laptop that had an ethernet port I could plug directly in to the modem. On a positive note, the same issue presented itself. So I guess that does rule out the router. The signal levels were the 1st thing I checked because in the past I have had an issue with...

    Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

    They're pretty much contained stories. You'll miss some of the nostalgia pieces dropped in to the game, direct references and background details, and some of the character dialogue references past interactions. But by and large it is a new adventure with enough new plot awesomeness, of nothing...

    DOTA 2

    I think they can do that before without breaking roster locks because Zai is already registered for the Major as a sub. If Zai is ready / feels up to it. Dota 2 - Pro Team Rosters EG is ID 39

    Monster Hunter Series

    They're definitely more iterative than they are ground up brand new games. I'd say like CoD or Madden, but that really doesn't seem fair. There is a great core game of doing mostly nothing but killing big boss monsters and not wasting time with clearing trash, etc... So each new one adds a new...

    Wayward Pines

    I think there was only one major plot line they didn't explore on season 1 from the books. If they incorporate that it could have some interesting bits.

    Well if it is kaput that's what it is. Just wish I could figure it out. No big deal $70 or whatever for a new one. The other strange thing is I can still get gmail, twitch notifications, and access the play store on my phone and tablet. Just no browser stuff.

    Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

    My only complaint with crushing, and maybe it applies to the other difficulties, is enemy placement and parking makes it almost impossible to stealth encounters. I mean you could do it, but each one would take you 5 hours and you'd need the patience of Saint Monica. I usually get 20 - 30% of...

    Long shot but figured I would throw something up here and see if anyone had any ideas. Just today my "internet connection" has been dropping and I've narrowed it down to occurring in in 1hr intervals. Almost exactly 60m as close as I can time. All devices on the network (wired and...

    I'll wait until the major to pass judgement on them, but they don't look great. Could always make a run out of losers though and look great when it counts.

    I'm at the same spot as you. Just really awesome so far. The big fire fights are tough as hell on Crushing though. Had one crash while escaping Rossi Estate, other than that performance has been solid. Regarding treasure, was doing pretty well, only missed in through the underwater salvage...

    Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

    I try to avoid using the PS4 UI and / or Store as much as possible. The idea of trying to go in there and find a way to see when it unlocks is just, man almost anything sounds more pleasant. Guess I'll just go to sleep and get some time in tomorrow.

    Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

    I think I misread something on another site that made me think it'd unlock kind of the same way Dark Souls III did, which was like 8pm Central my time and was trying to confirm with you all if that was actually the case. I guess it is midnight.

    Doubledilla was a bust. My Taco Bell is usually on point but maybe they just had a rare screw up. Cheesy Double Beef for $1 is pretty legit though.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    They just want the favor without bending the knee or kissing the ring. Like the dude said. Fuck your oaths and all that bullshit. But here's a gift for you to prove we're in. Oaths aren't particularly important when almost every one since the start of the show has been broken. He's talking to a...

    They really need to cut out this join a game already in progress where your team is losing bullshit. There has to be enough players to spawn new games without an eternity to waiting. With no punishment for leaving it makes more sense.

    Overwatch

    The 2nd biggest issue I'm having is to dumb down my play. Not expecting anyone to cover a flank, to actually defend a point, or to wait for support to attack rather than run in 1 by 1 and die. So mostly I've had more fun playing a mid range zoner and floating around cleaning up after a skirmish.

    Ah shit Baron Zemo, coming out I was trying to explain stuff to the wife and for some reason (I'm dumb) couldn't spit out Baron Zemo as to who the bad guy was, Zemo was so familiar, was on the tip of my tongue. I do agree with Column though, a little stronger villain(s) couldn't have hurt...

    My wife's family showed up somewhere during the middle of the episode, so a lot of the camp conversations I missed, and only got to see reward and immunity challenges, then tribal. How was Jason not more aligned with what was going on? It seemed for a few there he was making headway, then when...
