    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Sure, assuming the process takes place on farmland with adequate sun. What if it takes place in Manhattan, Alaska, Antarctica, an underwater oil drilling platform or the ISS?

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Cool. I don't know biology or botany but I'm super excited for crazy GMO stuff. One scifi thing I hardly ever see is plants who have an electric input as a power source in addition to sunlight. I think that'd be baller.

    The tech for this is pretty far off. And the answer to the social issue will probably end up being cryogenic sleep, if it ever works. it's a big enabler not just because it avoids the social problems, but greatly diminishes the need for food, water, air, power, recycling etc for space travelers...

    Sure, that's all fine and good. I'm just saying that condescension isn't a tool available to the humbled.

    You can't really respond with "Try to keep up." with someone reminding you that you were the defender of a dumpster fire and had no idea what you were talking about.

    Poll Do you like the stories and dialogue in games?

    Some games yes, some games no. I find that I have to 'really' care about a game's setting to care about the text. I also find it has to be heavily integrated into the gameplay for me to care. I also find that the more forced I am to hear background/story the less I care about it. In MMOs...

    Everquest Mysteries

    List is correct here, and there's good reasons for most of it. Warriors, like others, were forced to group. And because of the mechanics in that era of EQ they were usually in charge (especially if they were pulling, which I did a lot of...). They broke mez, they said when to attack, they chose...

    I agree, but they're not tryign to lean heavily on procedural generation right? They're not making a galaxy sized world. BTW: I'll reiterate what I said a lot on the No Man's Sky thread: procedural generation will only take you so far and create an interesting base. You absolutely need hand...

    Virtual Reality

    One of the games that ships with the rift, Lucky's Tale, has the kind of overhead isometric view that Populous has. I think we'll see some form of God games with VR, but a key thing here is that 3d objects far away look flat (even in the real world). You can compensate this by having a wider...

    Laptop Computers

    Need to buy the wife a laptop. Am looking at some Lenovos, a Sager and some Dells. She wants a 17" screen and won't play any games. She mostly needs it for internet and graphic design (photoshop, illustrator, inDesign). One thing I'm noticing: it's rare to find 17" laptops that don't have...

    I'm just pumped for asteroid mining and asteroid mining as the way we'll erupt into our solar system. It's also something I hope happens soon enough for me to pursue as a career. I don't really want to repeat the argument but I'll always be ready to ask the question of, "What would spending...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Not sure what you're asking here, but I'm saying that if you maxed out your AAs and had some 15k AAs, once EoK releases and you max out your AAs you'll have 25k. The list of AAs (without cost) is on the beta forums and it's pretty lackluster. 1k of those AAs are wrapped up in new class specific...

    I think marriage is more for flavor than anything. I always get married because it's interesting convincing whatever the top family in the game to giving you their daughter.

    The advantage of carbon nanotubes would be we'd effectively create those squids from the Matrix, or some kind of jellyfish ship. The idea of space ships being small ringed modules surrounded by massive clouds of nanotubes is too silly to work!

    We may as well just have a huge shotgun and launch buckshot at nearby star systems. Sure, it's not really a probe, but little tungsten pellets are about as good at 1 light year.

    No idea, but I'm willing to make a 100 year avatar bet the answer to "how fast" is "slower than what we'll have in 100 years, or we'll all be dead and it doesn't matter". I wouldn't count on the EMDrive, it's probably bullshit. A few groups have independently found thrust, but zero groups...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    ArcheAge had competitive world PvE. It was open-world PvP though and was frustrating in many respects. One of the most important enemy bosses could be bugged out by one person who knew how. A lot of competitive PvE boils down to who has the ability and desire to camp mobs, which is like...

    I feel like any interstellar project we start now will create a space vehicle that will be passed before it reaches the star by one we'd create 100 years from now . And that 100 year later space vehicle will get passed by one we create 200 years from now. And that one will be passed by one we...

    This is the most disappointing MMO ever made. It took a massive budget and combined it with the most MMO-friendly IP and game reputation ever made and ended up terrible. I made a lot of posts on RR why exactly, but I'll sum it up here: They should have followed the Elder Scrolls example of "go...

    I don't think I've ever world-dominated a given mod or vanilla more than once, but I've done multiple 'play throughs' of a mod where I basically terminate it after I've pretty much reached God-Tier status. I don't know how other people play M&B but I pretty much play all the mods the same way...

    Note that ESO, Archeage and Black Desert Online are recent MMOs with siege systems very similar to Shadowbane's concepts. Same with GW2 though that's a bit older. There isn't really a cookie-cutter system for large scale castle sieges because there are so many mechanics to get right. I've done...

    I noticed that too. My guess was that in the alternate timeline Barry wasn't there to force Joe to step up and be the best dad of all time in a "It's a wonderful life" kind of way. So he kind of stepped away from being Barry's dad, his job etc.

    I agree on Diamondback's outfit. They should have done a much better job on it. I'm guessing the budget for Ironman's CGI in a movie is more than the entire Luke Cage season, but they needed to do more than a brown jumpsuit and a dorky helmet. But, I didn't care too much about it. And I enjoyed...
