EVERYONE NOT SHOOTING WHAT I'M SHOOTING AT BECOMES WHAT I'M SHOOTING AT!!

Yep. Magic newborns.

lol. These threads are like opening up your high school yearbook and seeing how young (and skinny) we all used to be. Was that pic pre-med? I don't even think I graduated high school in the earliest pic of me on here.

Has anyone preloaded it yet from anywhere?

If it was as good as the Avengers it'd be a complete success in my mind.

I hope the backstabbing Spartacus got is superficial and he just walks it off.

Caesar was beaten in a 2v1 against agron and a dude who was slaughtering legionnaires. I thought Agron would die in that fight, but oh well. Either way I've stopped caring about immersion. Every lead character should be a superhuman in spartacus, including the senators, bankers and generals.

Yeah, this is looking to be like the least Assassin based Assassin's Creed ever.

Eh I don't really agree. In the second round Stann didn't try to brawl with Silva and tried to outstrike him (Which he did in groin strikes!) but Silva was too fast and too accurate for Stann. You could argue that he would've done better in the second if he didn't get so beaten up in the first...

Worked for me earlier.

Looks great.

We'll see how it plays out. Based on what I've seen it's not like the regions will be a permanent fixture, but just a space to create cities and once the cities are created we'd create another region. And if we don't want shitty mayors in our region then it's easy to stop them.

I'm sure there will be room. There's no spots filled, just show up to the irc channel (name not picked yet) at release. If I can't download the shit until 3am or at release someone else will have to manage the region creation.

Maybe. The naval stuff in AC3 was the least sandbox part of the game. The missions were literally linear and picked from a map. I doubt we'll see a game where you can just travel around your boat on a coast/open sea.

Hmm, seems like you can either make it public and I assume random people can search for your region and cock it over, or you have to make it private and the only way to join is for the owner to manually invite you. I was hoping I could make a region with some name and people would be able to...

Not sure if this was posted yet:

Easily the worst game I've ever played: http://gamejolt.com/games/strategy-sim/auti-sim/12761/

So uhh, wasn't I supposed to be able to download this shit today? Amazon says I can't start downloading until the 5th.

Let's get some ideas for our first region name and then we'll make an IRC channel named after it, we can use that to figure shit out on Monday night. I've never played SimCity5 so I won't know wtf to do but I'm down for making my first city in a RR region anyway. My pragmatic region name...

My expectation is that most people here will spend a lot of their time in the first week embarrassing themselves privately before wanting to make a city in a public region. Either way yeah, I'll be around Monday night, but hopefully the server choice isn't an important thing like it is for MMOs.

My memory is pretty bad. Were there a lot of AAA titles that released for Xbox and Xbox 360 (and same for ps2 and ps3)?

Do you know when it goes live? If it's 5pm to midnight EST I'll be around. Or do they have a serverlist somewhere? I also don't know if the server necessarily matters? You can be on multiple servers right? And whatever horse shit non-city based attributes (ex, achievements or god forbid some...

That's what I figured when that article didn't list the probability. Scientist: "There's a 99.999% chance the asteroid will miss mars." Press:" So you're saying there's a chance." Scientist: "... yes..." Faux Science News article: "POSSIBLE COLLISION WITH MARS!"

"25) If your internet goes down while you're playing, you will still be able to play for a short period of time. No specific time frame has been given!" So probably zero anti-cheating mechanisms.

If anything it'd be great if their assassination sequences copied Hitman more and the 'gathering intel' allowed for you to do them Silent Assassin style vs charging in there, killing the target and jumping in some hay.

Not sure but I hope the real-world timeline is after Desmond. You have to believe that Altair has about a million descendants.

So the DJI is at its highest point ever. Time to go all in, get out or continue what you're doing?

That all sounds good but I am still really apprehensive that it won't be tuned to the lcd like Spore was.

Dunno but I bet it was realistic and impressive sometime during alpha and then when they got their drooling retard playtesters on it they complained that timmy cocked over their city. Really they need to have region management controls on how much you can fight other regions. Having simulated...

I don't think there's terrain editing or changing of the map size.

They didn't list the probability of impact? Garbage.

I took a closer look at the paper, here's where they describe the comms: http://www.nature.com/srep/2013/1302...srep01319.html I don't know what 100 microstimulation pulses to the primary motor cortex would do, but my guess is that it's some kind of irritant or the most hilarious case it...

I think we can agree on that. There's just a question of what that limiting factor is. I'd be interested in finding out what exactly they did to the decoder mouse to achieve communication. Feeding in a binary value can be done in many different ways, most of which are really just hacks.

Dual income is awesome.

Yeah I was also thinking about making a kung fu reference. I'd just like to read a paper from a real neurochemist discussing the plausibility of direct information transmission for complex ideas. Being able to transmit a binary message to a mouse is cool but scalability can't be assumed.

Yeah I get that, but are we talking about injecting phantom images into our brain so that the mouse thinks it sees the left lever's light luminate? Or are we talking about injecting 'knowledge' into the mouse' brain so that it 'knows' that it should push the left lever? Because if it's the...

Pretty cool. I doubt we'll ever use a brain to brain interface over verbal or written communication though. I'm no neurologist but it seems like it'd take a tremendous change in the human brain in order to quickly encode and decode messages sent via wire. Still, any kind of 'automatic' input...

Good choice. I always tell friends who want to sell me something big (house,car,whatever) that I'm not going to buy unless I'm giving the seller a bad deal and I don't want to give you a bad deal.

I'm thinking we could make a new one every month or something but we'll see how it plays out. We'll definitely give the Rerolled region a try.
